I like this style very much, but I would get it in red.
Beige is only good for summer. Meanwhile green takes a bit of thought to match a wardrobe. Red works with everything. You'll be surprised!

Given you’re getting this bag for the summer, I’d look at your summer wardrobe and decide what goes best with it, the beige or the green?
Personally I love the green and the leather and it would work well for me as I mostly wear white / beige / navy in the summertime.
However if your wardrobe is more colourful and not particularly compatible with green, beige would probably be the better option!
I also don’t agree that beige is only good for the summer, it probably depends a lot more on what colours you wear ;) but I do agree red is also a great option, I love red bags!

I can’t see the beige link. Green is gorgeous but to be honest I have a green bag and rarely use it. Assuming the beige is what I think it is cauz I can’t see photo, I’d go beige for a summer bag. You’ll wear it more. I don’t agree about red. I learned my lesson not to buy red bags as for me, I won’t wear them. I’m just not a red person. I know others like it but if you are looking for a summer bag, beige sounds great.

edit…I see you posted new link! I still vote beige. But can’t go wrong with either

The red is gorgeous! The only thing is I have two red bags already, one of them Gucci - albeit a different style. I don’t have anything green. I agree it would definitely be harder to match though!

Five new dresses for the summer: one full black, two full off-white, one striped pastel multicolour, and one full lime green (that the green bag wouldn’t really match). Plus, I have a number of old D&G summer dresses that I seem to default back to every summer no matter what else I have. They’re all white base with a floral pattern in fairly bright colours. Aside from that, it’s plain cropped pants or jeans with plain knit tank tops/short sleeves. I’m not sure I’d say my wardrobe is compatible with green, but I do lean towards monochrome outfits. I love the colour of the green Gucci… I admit I am worried I might get tired of it though.

I think the beige is definitely the safer option. I love the green colour, but I might not love it so much after a short while. I’m not sure. (Sorry about the link - I can’t seem to edit the original post to fix it.)

I think in a perfect world get both because you will have different uses for them (especially if you don’t have a green bag). But I think if you’re looking for a summer bag to use often, beige. Good luck deciding!

A monochrome outfit would really make it pop! :love: I think it would be a fun option.

Just saw this. Hm. Have you seen the green in person? That might help your decision?

I think the beige Jackie would be a good option for the summer. I'm not always a fan of light colored bags, but this one actually looks like a charming combination. I think it could even carry into the winter months too. I do not really care for that shade of green.

Thank you, the second link worked.

I've had a sig-print Small Jackie before (beige and ebony so not this light). I like this beige much more than the classic colour combo I had but this seems summer-only (unless you are always in very light neutrals).

I love green bags, especially Gucci and Hermes. One of my first Gucci bags was jade green, a very similar colour. I wear mine all them all the time. Nothing beats that beautiful leather whichever colour. I just worry the you're not sure.
