Which one goes with more outfit? Black or Brown trim?

I'm a black, white girl but the brown trim looks soooo good.

The brown is so classic and is my favorite. And this brown, in particular, is a very neutral brown. It's not too warm, or too cool. So, it really does go with everything!
 
Has anyone here lost one of their shoulder bag’s buttons? (gold round button you attach to the shoulder bag when using it crossbody) I lost one and I’m wondering if Gucci can provide replacements?

Should be guaranteed for a year, even after, they will be able to repair it, but you'll have to give it to them, they won't just give you the 'button'.

I ralther like the black but the brown is the classic and will still go with everything.

If that’s a black trim I’m in love with it. Wondering if it’s navy though, I can’t see trim colour mentioned in the details?
 
Hmn, you're right. Seems like it's blue. Thought it's black. I can't find a black trim on the website.


Do Gucci classic bags tend to hold value?
FYI, I contacted Matches to ask for clarification on the colour of the trim and they took a while to confirm because it wasn’t clear to them either but now say that it’s black.
I’ll try to upload the images they sent though later.

So I made my first Gucci purchase! :yahoo:

Bought the Horsebit in black leather and the burgundy canvas. Unfortunately, the burgundy canvas didn't come stuffed so it came dented. I think it may have been someone's return because the strap was already attached too. Honestly not a fan of the feel of the canvas, but the burgundy is such a beautiful color. I wish they would do an all leather version of it and the Navy.

The black is gorgeous. I love the smell of leather that slapped me across the face when I opened it. It came stuffed and I inspected it and didn't see any flaws. She's definitely a keeper. I'm thinking about getting the white one now.

Grrr. I made enquiries about the trim colour of this beige canvas bag at Matches (colour not specified in the listing other than beige)and was advised it was black, which surprised me, but they should know right?

Then I upsized the photos sent through and took a closer look and there's a tag that reads Blue Beige.
So in case anyone was thinking of purchasing it... it's blue, not black. Some people might think it's a dark enough blue to pass for black, but I'm not one of them. It's a (very nice) blue and beige bag.

I just have to say, I think navy or dark blue and black is one of my favorite color combinations. So, maybe just see which you think you would wear more with your coloring?
It is irritating for a website not to be able to give better information.

Congrats! They are gorgeous! I don’t think the dent is too noticeable and it’s on the back, but maybe you could exchange it if it bothers you? The burgundy color is really fun. I’m thinking about branching out to different colors. I almost always get black.

I also love wearing dark blue/midnight blue and black together! But for some reason I don't wear blue bags, no matter how nearly black they are. I love blue, just not blue bags. It's a great bag linked upthread by @Antigone and I would strongly consider buying it if it were black.
Matches CS got it wrong, it happens, I just wanted to clarify since I wrote earlier that it was black :smile:
