Between the two I would choose the red Gramercy. I'm biased because it's next on my wish list anyway, but it seems like it would be more versatile with different outfits. I have a relatively smallish collection so I like to buy bags I can wear with many outfits, and I would probably struggle to coordinate with the winter garden.
I like the red Gramercy; I keep checking it out myself. Love the red color; it will look great with black and white outfits and will give it a nice pop of color.
I think the gramercy is more versatile because it is a solid color. But if you wear a lot of solid colors, I think the floral would go with a lot too. I think the Borough looks better worn crossbody. It would is easy to care for and you could wear it in the rain. I would also take the weight of each into consideration.
I'm going to go against the grain here and vote for the floral...simply because it's beautiful, different, and Coach hasn't ever done a floral this subtle and abstract - and with a cool black background! That said, if you don't wear a lot of solids, the floral wouldn't be a good choice. The gramercy is a stunning bag, too....I just keep looking at it in the store and thinking that if I was to ever get one, I'd have to try my things in it first before buying, because the ease of getting in and out of the bag seems questionable to me.
I love red bags but I like the borough style best.
When I looked at the Gramercy , I liked the classic look of it except for the tight opening and I wouldn't want to keep refastening the belt on top. Just did not seem easy to get into.
I do like the floral print because it is different and while not a huge fan of floral bags... I like the way this print looks, especially on the borough.
The new B bags have a more open middle section that is easy to get into and has side closure snaps that can open to expand size.
The medium size B is close to the Gramercy size but I have not seen the small B so I don't know if it holds close to the same amount.

The larger size is much easier to get in and out of, but unfortunately, the only color choice on that one is black. If it came in red, it would be a great choice.
Another vote for Gramercy but I do like them both. You can't go wrong either way. I will say the Borough is more unique and standout while Gramercy is classic if that helps. Good luck!
I think that the gramercy is beautiful to look at, but challenging to get into. I also think that the hardware is disproportionately small to the size of the bag. However, there is something about it that I like. I love the borough but personally for me not in the floral. Great, I'm no help at all!
