Looking for a summer bag and am torn between the leather and canvas version of the Gucci horsebit 1955. What are your thoughts between the two? I kind of love the canvas on this piece, I think it's super vintage looking! BUT the all leather white version looks so posh. I tend to wear lots of natural colors and a very classic wardrobe.

I like the all leather one. It looks cleaner and is less logo-y (Not that I'm against all logos, I do like the classic GG canvas print, just not vibing with this one) I feel that the clean silhouette goes with everything!
I too tend to wear neutral colors (black, white, beige, tans/browns, and occasional grays and olive greens) and classic basic pieces.

For the canvas one, I feel that the stitching stands out more and I can see where the leather was cut on the corners of the flap and bottom of the bag and for some reason, that bothers me lol. :P

I love them both! I would go with the canvas and leather version simply because it may be easier to take care of. White bags are beautiful but difficult to keep clean!

True, but as far as white leather goes, this type of stamped leather is one of the easiest though.
 
They are both great! To me it would depend on your wardrobe. If you wear a lot of prints (especially floral in the summer), then the white would go best. If not, then either could work.
