I think they're BOTH gorgeous and don't think you could go wrong with either. The brun seems a bit more inconspicuous...the whiskey is very noticeable. Which goes better with the colours in your wardrobe? Like others have said, don't let the price dictate your decision...a deal isn't really a deal if you don't love it as much or use it as much as you would have without the deal! Good luck with your decision!
