I don't think I know how to upload a picture...so I'll just leave a link of a pic of my outfit!

Recently saw the medium in mandarin on sale at Macy's and I'm really tempted to get it! I used to love black bags, but now I love bolder colors like fuchsia and the mandarin! Don't know if I should...

I wish I knew Macy's was selling the selma in blossom earlier as well =/ I was looking for a nice pink bag for a long time but settled for a pink satchel from The Cambridge Satchel Company I should have waited...regrets

The bag looks great with your outfits! Go for the mandarin too, if you are tempted! I love that colour and it seems to be being phased out, as it is on sale everywhere. It may come back again but I am so glad I got my mandarin colour in case it doesn't return for a while!

Thank you!! Black is too boring for me...bag wise because I usually dress is pretty neutral colors, so a nice color bag to make the outfit pop is the best!



Guess I waited too long to purchase the mandarin selma at Macy's...because now it's sold out I should have purchased it as soon as I saw it! $150 is too good of a deal to pass up, but I was too late

The mandarin is still showing up on the website!

I would wear my mandarin jet set all year. I'm not letting anyone dictate my ability to carry my bags lol.

After all, Halloween colors are black and orange! lol! Mandarin is in the orange family and Halloween is in the fall. You can wear mandarin all year long just like the fuchsia, so this is a tough one. I have a fuchsia Tristan and find that I really can not wear it with everything. I also have the watermelon Riley, which is very similar to mandarin, that I use way more often . I guess it depends on your wardrobe.

I wasn't in love with watermelon at first but it has grown on me. I got medium Cindy in watermelon on clearance and love it!

So pretty! I'm hoping my order for this goes through since it was on a good sale

Ok so I have a decision to make! I found a large fuschia Selma with silver hardware at Macy's today and it was only 183 (tax included!!!). I snatched it up because they only had one with silver hardware. Well now I have to decide whether to keep it or my unused medium mandarin. I got the mandarin last month for roughly the same price. I love both colors but I won't use both, especially since I already have a sapphire sutton. I am leaning towards fuschia because I think it might be more versatile all year but I love mandarin so much too! Help me choose!

Both are nice, but I love the Mandarin more. It just pops more and the color looks great on you! My vote is for Mandarin.

 

[ubo22]

I do, but I'm actually selling that one because I've only carried it a handful of times. It's a gorgeous bag but a bit too slouchy for me. Once you go structured it's hard to go back!!

Oh, in that case, I'm of no help to you. I truly love both fuschia and mandarin. Is there any preference between large and medium? I thought your mandarin was a medium.

 

[Bootlover07]

That's a tough one because that mandarin really pops you tan, big time! Looks great! I am not so sure that mandarin can't be worn all seasons? It would look awesome with browns and blacks in the fall. I don't see any reason you couldn't wear it most of the year? I'll be the odd one and go for the mandarin, but both are great colors.

I would wear my mandarin jet set all year. I'm not letting anyone dictate my ability to carry my bags lol.

I agree with the mandarin for the reasons stated above!! I have a large deep pink Selma (which is a different shade but looks very similar) and a small mandarin sutton, I love the mandarin colour!! I would say I used the deep pink in winter and summer and the mandarin is a lovely bright for summer but I would use the mandarin on a bright winter day, it looks great against black (I'm getting a black winter coat this year so I can use my bright bags more). I also prefer my medium Selma's, I'm only 5'1 and I think the large is too bulky (I have a NS red croc Dillon which doesn't seem too big but the large selma seems more bulky), but all this is personal preference! Don't be swayed by the fact that the larger was almost the same price and just go for the 'bargain'. I've done that once and regretted it, choose the one that makes you smile and feel great when you carry it- that is what mandarin does for me!

Thanks for helping ladies! I'm still torn lol!!! I guess I worry less about mandarin being transitional and more about it transitioning in my wardrobe. I wear a lot of neutrals and colorful bottoms in the fall and winter and hardly wear brown at all. Sometimes mandarin pulls more red with certain colors and I'm not a red fan. I'm going to decide the old fashioned way and try on a bunch of outfits this weekend and see which bag goes with more LOL!!

Personally the fuschia. I think it goes with anything and across the seasons as well. I haven't seen the mandarin IRL but I am think pink is more versatile.

Depends what you want to put in it size wise. I use my large selma's for work, but my medium Selma at weekends.

Jealous sapphire sutton, lovely lovely bag and colour.

Dare I say keep both lol such different colours and sizes.

Oh, in that case, I'm of no help to you. I truly love both fuschia and mandarin. Is there any preference between large and medium? I thought your mandarin was a medium.

Both are beautiful. However, the fuchsia is just gorgeous. I would keep it.....

So I was thinking on it and realized the large was too much pink for me and exchanged it for the medium today. I love my large grey for work but think the medium is good for brights and I could carry it more casually. I also got them to adjust the mandarin price because I paid 181 a few weeks ago and it's now on sale for 155 (including tax).

Ubo22, now they're both medium and the same price making the decision even harder [emoji15]!!!! I'm going to try on a bunch of outfits this week and see which one is more transitional. Here is some eye candy! Medium fuschia with silver and medium mandarin with gold. FML...

I wasn't in love with watermelon at first but it has grown on me. I got medium Cindy in watermelon on clearance and love it!

Did you ever try wearing it with a turquoise dress or top? It goes beautifully with turquoise! I wear a lot of turquoise jewelry and tops and the watermelon looks great with it. I am sure it will pop my black outfits in the fall and winter, real well too. The only one in watermelon I could find that I liked was the Riley, because they all come with gold hardware, mostly. Haven't seen any in soft leather with silver hardware, just the saffiano bags, which I don't wear. Since the Riley has very little hardware on it, I could deal with the gold on it because it doesn't stand out. I wear all silver and white gold jewelry, so that is why I need silver hardware on my bags. I wish I looked good in gold because it is so pretty. just clashes with my coloring.

Mandarin also goes really well with turquoise.They look fabulous together. Do you wear turquoise at all? I have quite a few turquoise tops and dresses and my Watermelon Riley, which is just about the same color as this mandarin, really pops my turquoise outfits, which can also be worn all seasons. The mandarin looks fabulous with black too, which of course can be worn all the time. Either way, they are both gorgeous colors. All depends on your wardrobe.

Good decision to downsize the fuchsia. I also think it's too much on a large Selma but perfect in medium. Now, the hard decision. When I owned a mandarin bag, I carried it year-round. Especially in the Fall. I also think fuchsia can be carried year-round. They are both great pops of color and can be paired with most outfits. Which one do you truly love when you look at them? Choose that one.....

I wore it with a top that had turquoise and coral in it the other day! Very nice together

Oh yes! That is even better when the coral is mixed in with the turquoise. I'll bet it looked awesome!
