Hello,

I hope I'm not hijacking, but I'm a new member and would like an opinion on my 2 new KS maise bags - I can only keep one, and am not sure which to send back. One is the Flamingo appliqué maise, which has a unique design, but is brighter and more orangey than expected (not sure if it comes out in the pic, but the flamingo looks really bright orange). The other is the cedar Street Maise in rose jade, which has a nice color, but looks plain (but perhaps more ladylike) beside the Flamingo bag). Which one do you think I should keep? I'm leaning towards the Flamingo, but it might look a bit childish and garish compared with the rose jade. (I generally wear plain dresses in solid pastels or deep colors.) Thanks!

I'd keep the Rose Jade - it's a beautiful colour, very trendy at the moment but also not too vibrant and could be worn as a neutral. I find the appliqué bags to be a bit over the top and prefer to have novelty SLGs (wallets or coin purses) instead where they are interchangeable vs permanently being on the bag. Let us know which one you decide to keep!

Thanks so much! I'm still trying to decide, but will probably keep the rose jade. It's a shame about the appliqué Flamingo - it really is a unique design, but a bit too bright for me.

I think in the long run you'll be happier with the rose jade. More versatile through the seasons.

But you will probably get a lot of compliments on the flamingo and find the pop of color to add well to your outfits. So if you are just looking for a spring/summer bag, the flamingo might be more fun for you

Beautiful bags! Thank you for sharing!

So technically this is not MY bag, but I bought it for my 12 year old granddaughter. It's the Sally Newberry Lane in Rose Gold. It's a small crossbody so it's the perfect size for a petite preteen. She loves it and carries it exclusively now, to the point she donated her older bags to charity. She originally thought she'd like a MK bag, but from what I've seen Kate Spade has way cuter bags for young girls. My grandgirl is such an adorable boho/artsy girl! She loves fashion and accessories, so I will never have problems finding gifts for her.
