This or that? Help me choose a new bag

[pinkfoxxy]

I have tried on the Gucci marmont camera bag at the boutique and it goes really well with casual outfit. ( I was wearing jeans and plain t-shirt with sneakers) I think this bag is versatile and can be dressed down or glam up. The chain is antique gold so it's not so loud.
As for the leather, I feel that the leather on the camera bag is sturdier than the flap bag, though they are made from the same kind of leather.

But in some ways it is similar to Chanel. Both have the chains, the gold hardware logo and the nice lambskin leather.
I would feel bad if I end up having to similar bags :-/

I would personally stay away from Prada. Their quality is often sub-par. My friend had tons of quality issues with her saffiano bag (bigger size then the one you posted). She finally got so frustrated with the poor quality that she got rid of the bag.

This is what I'm afraid of too..

The Alma bb hands down ! I have two Alma bags , a PM and BB . I just adore them

I think they are all good choices, so go with your heart and don't think too much about resell value.

I like the Prada from your choices. OP just wondering what you decided to get?

Hey ladies

I can't stop thinking about which bag should I take or if I should take a specific bag.
I'm talking about these:

• Prada Saffiano Mini
I love the size and the fact that it is a carefree bag. But I recently saw a preloved one that was just 2 years old and it looked horrible. I don't plan to wear this bag on a regular basis, i definitely want to rotate. However I've read that some ppl complained about quality issues even though their bags weren't used that much.
Thinking about that, it kind of hurts a bit paying ~1500$ for her. Unfortunately I can't find that bag on the preloved market.

• Gucci Disco Soho

Cute bag, the size is nice too. But what I love about bags is their hardware. It shouldn't be too much but it als shouldn't be almost non existent. Also the gold appears to be more a light gold, which I dont like. But I could add a bag charm. Maybe it looks better with it?

• LV Alma BB

Super cute bag. I still have to think about if I should buy her (since I want my bags to match my wardrobe as well) and when I should buy her. LV first and then one of the above or the other way round?

I prefer the Prada bag but all the stories about the quality kind of keep me away from it.
What would you choose? Or do you have any other suggestions?

TIA

Gucci... It's the most casual of them all. Perfect fit everyday and super light. I'm going to purchase it tomorrow

I still didn't make a decision and I honestly stopped thinking about it [emoji23]
I don't think I would choose the Gucci. Maybe in the nude color but not in black. I love hardware on a bag (especially if it is a black bag) but the Gucci Disco doesn't have much of it and that is a bit boring to me.
I also like the Sac de Jour Nano from YSL but the leather seems quite delicate [emoji53]

I have both Prada and alma bb. For me, both are structured , with durable leather/canvas and lightweight. I don't have a quality issue with my prada saffiano and it was made in italy.and for the alma bb, it is classic and very pretty.
Good luck on deciding.all of them are beautiful

I tried the Sac de Jour Nano on today. I didn't think the leather seemed that delicate, it wasn't a smooth leather. I like how understated it looked but it maybe a bit too small to have no zip closure. Although I did notice that the new model has a zipped pocket inside now.

Really? A while ago I tried on the taupe one with GHW, it seemed to be prone to scratches [emoji848] they also have SDJ's with grained leather but only in combination with SHW as far as I know.
I guess I need to check that bag out again.

Ah yes sorry , the ones I saw had tried on ad grained leather and silver hardware, not gold.

Depends on what you want to use it for. Have you tried them in store?

I personally like Gucci disco soho, casual and great for travelling! And suits anywhere you go, not too dressup or down.

Yes, I tried all of them.
The Gucci Soho is not an option anymore. The bag looks kind of boring IMO :-/

Ohhh ok!
