I am buying a valextra iside medium soon. These are the two colors that I like. I wear a lot of neutrals. I have yellow skin tone.

Which looks better? Blue or green? Which will be harder to go out of style?

Thank you!

they are both beautiful. But one is cool toned and one is a bit warmer. What is your wardrobe like.

IMO only, the blue is great with cream, off white, navy, beige, gray, black, burgundy, bittersweet chocolate brown
Maybe I think it’s versatile bc it’s kind of a blue gray. I also like the contrast of cool tones with the ghw
(But, I’m also fine with wearing a light pop of neutral color on a bag during the winter)

for my color palette, the olive is great with cream, beige, browns, but is a bit less versatile.
perhaps also earthy tones plus orange, peach, pink (but I don’t wear those colors as much)

ETA: full disclosure I prefer cool neutrals to warm ones, except Hermes gold

Thanks for your inputs. Would you say that the blue is for spring / summer while the green is more suitable for autumn / winter. In my country, we only have dry and wet season (tropical country), no autumn and no winter. I don’t know if that is a factor to consider.

lol since I started wearing winter white, I view this kind of blue gray as icy and chilly :lol:
but yes, I’m not sold on the green for a tropical country even though there is so much vegetation. . .

I think you can make either work; I just have a personal preference for the blue lol

ETA: I just realized all of my valextra eye glass cases ( I have a bunch) are in shades of blue gray
if we ever meet, we will match :flowers:

Haha! Yes, you are right, the blue one also fits the wintery sceneries. Lol

I had to laugh when you said “vegetation” :biggrin:

That eyeglass holder is so cool.

The blue is the clear winner for me. I have pale rosy skin so can't contemplate a yellow tone, but I also don't think about whether skin tone coordinates with bags at all and focus solely on weather and wardrobe. For a tropical climate, I'd definitely choose the blue. The olive would be beautiful where I live in autumn, but the blue would be much more versatile and would work better in spring, summer and winter. Without an autumn, the blue is the winner by far IMHO! Good luck!

Prefer the green. The shape of the bag stands out more in this color & is distinctive, IMO
Both colors in their own way are classic & will work with many colors in one's wardrobe
& would be inclined to wear the green all year long especially with lighter tones (creams, whites,
neutrals) as well as wearing with darker colors

Ahh both are so beautiful! I was considering both colors myself. Green is more visible and the blue one gives more of a summer breeze vibes. I also wanted a lilac one when it was available, but after watching and considering my own collection I'll probably go with a more neutral color like grey or light blue that you mention:smile:
