Michael Kors MK Austin or Layton?

[Mrs. Mac]

I am sorry you dont like the Layton! I hope you love the Austin! Any chance you can post some pics....and modelling pics too???

^^ Yeah, I can snap a few pics before I send the Layton back. I don't hate it, but it's just okay. I want to love it. Ya know?

Without and then with flash. I would say the truest to actual color is the modeling shot.

 

[Mrs. Mac]

Oh I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!! The color is gorgeous! Thank you for the eye candy!!!! Cant wait to see your Austin when you get it!!!!

I love the size, the color and the texture of the leather.
Normally, I would be all over it if there weren't other MKs a bit higher on my MK-want list.

I actually love the layton. Good luck deciding.

The Austin has arrived. I still have the Layton, but I'm not sure if either are keepers. I got the Austin from Overstock and it didn't come with a dustbag or the fob. Not sure if this bag came with a fob because I find some pics online where it does and some where it doesn't.

Excuse the lighting, I took these pics with my iphone in my work bathroom

If you mean the MK charm, it's supposed to come with one.

If you're feeling unsure about both bags, then you probably shouldn't keep either.

^^I thought it should come with the charm. I knew it should have a dustbag. That's annoying.

Yeah, I will keep them both through the weekend and see how I feel. I like them both, just not sure if it is love. Although, sometimes it takes me a few days to commit to love.

I like the Layton too.

 

[Mrs. Mac]

I still LOVE the Layton.....the Austin is nice, but I LOVE that Layton and it looks great on you! Good luck with your decision....both are gorgeous bags! I would call the company you ordered the Austin from and ask where the charm is. I DO know that some bags do not come with any charms, but I think all the Michael by Michael Kors bags do.....not sure if I am wrong though.....if it doesnt come with a charm and you want one, you could always try the bay and get one with your color leather strap! CONGRATS!

I like that bag. I posted the silver one somewhere around here.

I like the Layton better. I think the Austin would be too deep -- hard to find things in. And I like the outside pockets on the Layton. I like MK's luggage color. Nice neutral, casual color.

I agree.
The Austin looks unbalanced, bottom heavy and is open at the top. I prefer a bag that closes at the top. I think the Layton has a much more classic look.
