I wear my Happy Lanvin everyday, eventhough it's my fav bag I would suggest you get the studs. I've been wearing that bag for nearly 5 months and it's torn inside and need to go for repair. With jewellery it will last longer or forever.
This is a big lesson for me to ALWAYS get jewellery instead of a bag whenever I am in this dilemma. :)
 
I recently got my first pair of diamond studs & have worn them every day, I've got lots of designer bags but honestly if I had to choose between the two it would be diamond studs, there classic & will last you forever but a bag won't.

If you don't mind my asking, about how much did you carry with you every day? Could the tear have resulted from heavy objects? Also in case I purchase the bag, did lanvin repair the bag at a cost?
 
If you could choose between a Lanvin happy bag or diamond studs, which would you get?

I'm kinda torn between the two...I already know that I would wear the diamond studs every day, but this would be one of my first real designer handbags. Please help me decide!

Information:

Lanvin Happy Medium Shoulder Bag (it's on sale now at a local department store for $1035)

it looks like this one but has a slightly different design on the leather (maybe cutouts or something?)...

For the diamond studs I was thinking about starting kinda modest in size and then upgrading to a larger size (considering either Kwiat or Bony Levy from Nordstrom's when they're on sale)

I want both but can only get one..help me out:smile1:

Another vote for studs. You can always trade up on size later on. Plus they never go out of style.

Well not that heavy. I carry my little umbrella, wallet, 500ml mineral water, tissue, lipstick, mirror and a few bits and bops like keys, scrunchie etc. I am not sure about the cost of repair though :)

Thanks for the response 😃. Since this bag is on a major sale and it's the last one left, my sister wants to get it for me as a present, but I want to make sure that in case anything goes wrong, Lanvin will repair it for me as I am purchasing from a local department store. I'm also going to continue saving up for my diamond stud though 😏 while I decide to get them from nordstrom's or a local jewelry store.
