Preston or Pippa?

[NutsAboutCoach]

My vote is for Pippa. I like that the handles fold down. The handles are the main reason I don't care for the Preston.

Thanks! That's the biggest flaw of that bag I think.

Preston! Like the style, and the pebbled leather better.

That pebbled leather is a plus for sure.

I love the pippa or the maise.

I like both too - maybe better than preston.

Does anyone else think the Maise is a contender?

 

[letstalkbags]

Pippa would be my choice. But I do want a regular size Preston still...

Hubby and one daughter like Maise best. Other daughter likes Preston!

I like Maise better than Pippa. It's kind of Preston but without the fixed handles and a more manageable size.

Exactly!

The Maise is closer in style to the Preston without being bulky but it's too colorblocked for me. I prefer the Pippa.

It is very colorblocked. Oh well I have a pink Kate Spade coming on Monday so may just return the Preston and the Pippa and keep looking for a black/white.

I owned a Pippa and returned it. Stunning, stunning bag, the reason I did was because the long strap is very long and I don't use it. And it looked funny with the strap detached. But if you are using the strap and the handles fold, and the Preson looks large, then I would go with the Pippa. Love Kate Spade bag

The only real concern I have with Pippa is the very smooth leather. I worry that it'll scratch easily. I would most often use the handles but would use the strap when I needed to have my hands free. It's such a pretty bag!

I'm a firm believer that if you have to talk yourself into it or weigh the pros/cons then it's not love. I only buy bags that give me that "say yes to the dress" feeling. 😍
