Thanks for the info J! I have a Splendor in black and I do love it but it is a bit small for me. I just scored the LP Bowler in marigold and I was hoping it's a bit more polished looking and also a bit roomier. I just can't fit all of my stuff in the Splendor.
I was looking at the Marigold too! But too rich for my blood right now. (No way to sneak it past the hubby) I got an Ashley though in Marine for $90!! and an Angie clutch in crimson for $50!!! wew wew.
I have a Moni in brown and LP is way better IMO. The leather is just better quality and softer...
There is no comparison between the Splendor and the Dylan. I bought a Splendor several months ago, and had it out of the box all of 5 minutes before I packaged it right back up and sent it back! I did not care for it at all.
On the other hand, I am in love with LP bags and the Dylan is my favorite line. I have two Dylans already and just bought a third Dylan during the current sale. The leather is thick, but so soft and squishy!!! It is definitely casual, but more polished than the Splendor.
I can't wait to see your LP Bowler!! I saw it on the LP site, but waited too long and it was gone. I'm so glad you snagged one up : ) The leather looks AMAZING!! You better post pics when you receive it...
LOL, I remember when you sent the Splendor back. Correct me it I'm wrong, but wasn't your splendor too large for you? If that's correct, the LP must be smaller...and if that's the case then it's too small for my needs, geez, this is sooo hard!
