If you could choose, would you buy a pale blue EW Hamilton with gold hardware or pale blue EW Dillon with gold hardware? I can get both at a very reasonable price...
I would choose the Dillon, but only because I believe you already own at least a couple Hamiltons already. The Dillon is a more simple style without the extra hardware. I don't think the Hamilton will ever look dated, though, as the design is based off the classic Hermes Birkin which has been around forever.

Oh my goodness you are so so lucky!! Even if I put Callie down when drowsy she somehow wakes up instantly. She has to have swaddles on tight in order to sleep and stay asleep but she always gets out of them or gets too hot. We have to turn up the AC. She's growing out of her miracle blanket and the regular swaddle blankets take forever but they work. She has to sleep in the rock n play otherwise she will wake up and I have to just hold her in order for her to sleep, or put her in the ergo. She absolutely hated the swing so we returned that, and she also didn't like the rockaroo or bouncer. Picky baby! I'm waiting for the day when she can put herself to sleep!

Maddie hated being put to sleep too but I let her cry for a few minutes and she stopped and then it kept getting better. Hard to hear them cry but ultimately it helps in the long run. Does she like a playmat? Maddie loves it and that's how she started the rolling.
 
I would choose the Dillon. The Hamiltons are prettier bags, but I worry that they are already starting to look dated..... :smile:

I agree with keishapie1973. Although, I've never been a fan of the Hamiltons because I feel like the lock on the front belongs on a gym locker. It always bothered me. The Dillon has a more simple, streamlined look that won't be dated anytime soon.

LOL! Well if it bothers anyone they can always remove the Hamilton lock and carry it that way. :smile:

Dillon! I love pale blue, think it looks nice with less hardware!

She only likes her lounger haha, trying to get her on the playmat more but she will start crying. So I have to force tummy time and being on her back on the mat.

Right now I'm holding her while she finishes a nap.... Ugh. How much sleep does maddie get each day, how many naps?

Ugh poor mama :( people say it's tough but you don't understand till you're dealing with it lol.

Maddie has started teething [emoji58] constant crying, no napping, lots of drool... When she wasn't teething she would take roughly 3 naps a day ranging from 45min- 2hrs.

That's where we're at now! Not looking forward to teething [emoji38][emoji24]

Sorry to hijack this MK thread with baby talk!! Back to regular programming [emoji23]
 
OMG...I sometimes take a look into the Chanel thread for fun, and saw this little bag someone bought for $ 3400! IMO that is a huge amount of money to spend on a bag! That's why I love MK, you can have a variety of bags for a reasonable price. I bet if I sold all of my bags I too could buy Chanel, but I would be bored with only one bag:girlsigh:

I look too and admire the pretties from afar lol for me personally they are way out of my league in terms of disposable income for bags. MK isn't affordable for the masses here in the UK and doesn't ever go on clearance like in the US. For me it's my comfortable budget. I'm happy buying my Mks and popping over to Chanel to see what others are buying X

Here in Norway you can easily get seasonal MK bags on sale with 30-40%. On Zalando ( that I think UK also got?) you can get some bags with up to 66-70% off on a few items. In stores here there are only a few colors available, hence those are the colors seen most frequently. I prefer to buy from the flag store in Oslo or online giving me more options in models and color. I also took a look at the Hermés thread today, but I feel the Kardashian family has made me loose interest in these bags. I love the scarves though:p:biggrin:
 
I would go with the Dillon... As other's have stated, the Dillon is sleek and the shape of the bag is really nice. I feel like the Hamilton is an obvious MK - whereas the Dillon is understated but still a great bag. (I'm also partial to Dillon, so my opinion is very subjective :)
