I love the Blood Red- the combination
is more striking than the Bright Red. I'm a true-red lover as well (as many Minkettes here are already well aware
), and I don't typically like darker reds/burgundy's, so I understand your plight. A few months ago I bought a
Fire Engine MAB and I thought I'd probably let go of my
Cranberry (a darker, pinker, mellower red) MAB once I had the bag in a truer, brighter red . . . finances be damned, I ended up keeping
both because I'm totally in love with each for different reasons. I use both bags very regularly and doubt I'll be getting rid of either in the forseeable future.
Sounds to me like the Bright Red MAC doesn't quite float your boat, though, so I say keep the BR one and look for a MAC in a different RM red (maybe Fire Engine- it's an awesome color!) in the future. JMHO
