Hi everyone! In the market for a white/cream bag for the summer and to wear with my navy prominent wardrobe, lol. I have and LOVE the medium Aphrodite in red and I am eyeing getting the white one. I am ok with and have multiples of certain bags in different colors. OTH, the large Diana in white is also gorgeous. My only issue is that I may grow tired of the bamboo. My daughter and sister love the Diana because the bamboo is so unique. My mom votes for the Aphrodite because it is more classic in her opinion. The Aphrodite is also a great price. The Diana is hard to justify at the almost 4k price.... Thoughts?

Huge Aphrodite fan here. I’m not a usually a fan of white bags (too stressful in NYC) but I’m also guessing that the chèvre leather will be way more hardy in white.

If money were no object, which would you truly prefer?

I have an Aphrodite too and find it very useful. I have 5 Bamboo bags, they were obviously a more complex bag to make and they're all a bit more substantial.

Both would be perfect for Summer.

Another one in favour of going with what you love

I honestly don't know, lol. Money isn't an object- just a plus point, LOL. I'm so torn, but leaning toward the Aphrodite for some reason. Maybe bc of the shape? I have a medium Jackie and a red Aphrodite. I also think the bamboo may be uncomfortable on the shoulder?? I'll go try them side by side..

The bamboo is definitely not for the shoulder, you would use the shoulder strap.
