Hi all - can you help with some thoughts on this bag please?
It's the one colour I haven't managed to see IRL. Is it a blue or a purple tone????
If my creaky old memory serves me, Kerilynn had one, didn't she?

Hmmmm - what are you up to Sarajane??? Thought you wanted red??

Watch out - it's the handbag patrol!!! LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL:roflmfao::roflmfao::roflmfao:

Actually, I love the midnight and tend to think it might be very versatile!

Oh poo - can't slide anything past you Kroquet!! Thought as it was quiet & no-one seemed to be around, I might get away with it!
I'm thinking about the possibility of midnight instead of red. Much as I love the red I thought midnight might be more flexible (and there's one available!)

Out of the two, I prefer the red. However, I think I will get more use out of the purple bag. It goes with alot more of my clothes and seems a bit more battered and usable (if this makes sense)

The leather on the red is a hundred times nicer than on the midnight, imvho. The midnight is antiqued leather (ie a bit scratched) whereas the red is soft goat and gorgeous.

This is obviously just my opinion. I love the colour of the midnight mabel but I know that the leather would drive me mad. I probably wouldn't be quite so vocal if it was someone else that asked the question but I have a feeling that you might feel the same way, sj :yes:

Hold out for the red :tup:

Ah Dita, the voice of reason! That was what I thought - the midnight is antiqued leather isn't it & the red is goatskin. Don't think antiqued & I would get along, so think it's going to have to be the red. Just need one to pop up in the outlets now!

I think all the JL ones are gone now :crybaby:I was going to get one but had a problem with my c/c - the number wouldn't go through, turned out the card was faulty.
A pic of the two would be fab, thanks! :flowers:
