This or This? (and why)

My opinion is I'm not a big fan of gold so that influences my choice. It seems all over the second bag, but the first bag just has a hint of it. Overall I think the miu miu looks better.
 
Is one of the bags more comfortable to wear against your body?

Here is a link to N article discussing the Prada Gaufre and the Miu Miu Matelasse. Of the two I prefer the Miu Miu.

Thank you for this!

The Miu Miu matelasse is beautiful! The leather is to die for!

I don't own anything by either designer but I would vote for the Miu Miu. I think it is classic but the leather pattern helps makes it more unique. I think the logo is reasonably understated and the bag looks easy and comfortable to wear.
 
I have an MJ but no Miu Miu (except RTW) it's about even from me (I know great help! :p )

Either is very nice, the MJ 'polished' very smart and kinda sexy, more versatile, I think it could be very grown-up it you want it to be, the Mui Mui more cool girl around town...over to you ;)

If you were deciding between the blue Miu Miu and the MJ I think it would be more weighted towards the Miu Miu. I think it's because with all the quilting it has so much pretty shading from where the light falls.
 
My vote is for the MJ. I love the Incognito. From what I've read on this forum, Miu Mius often have quality issues. The twisting leather is cool, but lots of other brands (Coach comes to mind) have done this for a while now. Good luck!
 
Like others have said, I think it depends on the look you're going for. I love the miu miu matelasse texture and I think it's a gorgeous bag. The MJ is much sleeker and more polished. Also very nice.

Really, you can't go wrong :)
 
Pandora, you know how I am, though, with MJ. Will I be kicking myself? LOL!
Why did they have to do away with the Stam? :sad:
Lol. I know. I was just thinking that. Too bad the Stam is no more. I know you have pretty much each one. What about searching for a stam you don't have and wanted? The miu miu does have those gathered pleats but I know you are a die hard MJ fan. How about if this is possible get the MJ and if you dont like it you can return it?

"They" send the MJ bags to me to look at before I buy. I love them so much.
BUT all it does is make me want, want, want. If they send 2 for me to decide between, I torment myself trying to make a choice. (ElainePG, yes, I know I am doing it again)
Hubby does not care for the Miu Miu. He really isn't sold on the Incognito shape either, though.
I think right now he is in a Valentino mode. If I had a V I was trying to decide on, I wouldn't get that stink-eye look. He's so funny.
His preference is this pretty red one!

Didn't you show a picture of this a few weeks ago? I thought you had bought it, but you said you were just "thinking it over."

Of course, I'm a sucker for red bags, but Hubby has a point with this one! It's glorious! Hmmm... :hrmm:

"This" is which one?
I have not bought a bag since last spring, I think. I think it was the Ayers 84.
Yeah, the red Valentino is pretty. I would love to have it, but I wouldn't use that color very much. Still ...
 
I do like the MIU MIU is because the shape and the leather finished to it, I think it look more classic and sophisticated IMO, however the MJ are beautiful as well I like everything except the shiny finish to it. Hope you pick the one that you will love and enjoy, good luck!

I was talking about the red Valentino. I just kinda thought you posted a picture of it recently, saying you were maybe interested in it... not that you had bought it. But I guess I've lost my few remaining brain cells!:p

Is that a Valentino in your avatar?
