Just looking for reassurance from other evie lovers :shocked:

I was very torn on which color to get for my second. I have etain and love it. It’s so versatile and cool. About 6 weeks ago I saw a blue nuit with ghw and gold with ghw pop up on the website. I was sure I’d be keeping the blue nuit but when I tried it on it just didn’t seem different enough from my etain. Both are cool colors. The blue is also dark and doesn’t really stand out. I kept the gold and it’s beautiful but I just can’t stop thinking about the blue and second guessing my decision.

I thought having one bag in a cool color and one in a warm color made more sense. What do you all think? Talk me out of that gorgeous blue I can’t get off my mind :panic:

I think it all depends on your wardrobe. If you dress to your color 'season' and you're a cool tone (winter or summer) it would make more sense to have two cool colors and no warm colors. (I'm a neutral so I always want ALL the bags! ;-))

I tried both on with different outfits and the gold popped more and looked good with different tops. It also felt more different from the etain. Blue is gorgeous though! Do you see the dilemmma?!

I agree with you that Etain and Blue fill very similar needs. For anything you would use the blue your Etain probably looks equally well! I love love love gold and in clemence it’s just delicious. I think going for gold as a warmer more casual option was a good call! Maybe get blue also later!?

I love H blues. My two Evies are Etoupe and Blue Sapphire, which is not too far off from Etain and Blue Nuit. That said, I think if your first instinct when you tried on the Blue Nuit Evie was that it didn’t stand out and wasn’t different enough, you should stick with that instinct. Sometimes we second guess ourselves after we walk away from something, but I think that’s usually more FOMO than anything else. If your mind can’t let it go, go back and take photos of yourself wearing the bag. Look at the photos later. It will give you some objectivity. If you love it then, then go get it!

Yes! Thank you! This puts it in perspective entirely, I feel like now that it’s gone I’m like nooooooooo

Unfortunately I missed the opportunity to take pics because my local boutique doesn’t allow it and the one I had I already sent back (h.com). I played with my gold tonight and tried it on with a cool colored outfit and it’s a nice pop. It feels special with the ghw. I haven’t actually used it yet.

I hear you! I’ve been thinking about a black Evie for over a year. I’m just stuck because I don’t know whether to get a PM or GM. I use the GM I have more, but the PM looks better on. But my PM is the Blue Sapphire and I’d rather not do a PM in another dark tone. So I keep going back and forth. :panic:

Your gold Evie sounds fabulous. Gold is so classic and wearable, I bet you’ll get a ton of use out of it!

Thank you! I should probably start by actually taking it out and using it for the first time :rolleyes: I love the idea of adding a BN in the future too but three Evies just feels like more than I’d need. Then again I said that about two and here we are..... so.....yeah...... Sigh. I can’t help still feeling it was the one that got away.

I hear you on the black, it’s gorgeous. Especially with gold hardware.
