I do feel like I have a bit of a "hole" in the black bag department. I noticed most people have way more black bags then just 2.
It does seem like, as much as I LOVE the gabrielle there are times that it doesn't "fit" my outfit/the weather/the event BUT then my only other black option is the nano antigona, however the antigona is not very versatile (cross body wear only & its pretty small) it seems like the black marelle would fit into that "hole" perfectly
On the green side, if I send the Alma (the guitar strap it came with is useless for me) back there won't be any gap at all, I'll still have 9 green bags of all types.
It seems like my course is clear.... but I LOVE the green color so much!

I wouldn’t buy another black bag because some other people have more. Many people have a number of brown bags. I’m happy with none. :smile:

But, you do say you need another black bag at times because the Gabrielle isn’t working well. Perhaps sell that, keep the green Alma you love and wait to find a black bag that is functional for how you live / dress and makes you as happy as your green bags do.

You have a great collection! I'm a green bag fancier too and I have a few very closely related bags to yours in my collection - e.g green Puzzle, grey Fendi BTW, green Gucci Multicolor and twins on the grey Puzzle. IMO it would be a shame to return the Serpentine LV, unless you're feeling OK about letting it go. It's a brilliant green that suits the Alma and looks slightly brighter than your other green bags.

So FWIW I'd keep what you have and add the lovely black Marelle at a later time :smile:

Here is dilemma..
I just got the green Alma BB so I can send it back.
I feel like having two of the same bag in a different color is excessive. I'm making an exception for the Puzzle cuz it's my fav bag ever.
These are my options:
1)I can keep the green Alma bb and sell the pink Alma and replace it with the pink easy pouch. This will keep my color families the same

2)Or I can send back the green Alma bb and then buy the black LV Marelle. This will lower my number of green bags (down to 9) & raise my number of black bags (up to 3)

Can someone give me any advice?

I would pick choice #2, pink alma BB is so pretty.

You have a lovely collection! If you love what you have, no need to sell. JMO :smile:

i almost never wear black bags. if your preference is to wear a green bag, then green can be your pop neutral

if you have a dressier occasion that calls for a smaller bag, and you dont want the givenchy Antigona, perhaps carry the green WOC or FLP holster?

my opinion exactly. I rarely wear black bags and I sold most of them. If I need a black and I do not wear black bags, I use other darker colors. I made myself buy few black bags because they can look striking on others in black only look, but that is not me :smile:

Oh I’d say keep the alma and the marelle. you are very keen to downsize then how often do you wear your neutrals?
if you feel like you need a plain black when you’ve got a few big beiges do you find yourself not going for, say, the sangle?

I myself find I rarely wear pink so I’d consider selling it as it’s very popular but I do think it’s a nice colour just to look at too.
