What to wear with Mandarin Epi?

[paruparo]

I just received a preloved Mandarin Epi pochette in EXCELLEnt condition. I bet the previous owner didn't really use it... It is mch brighter irl than I thought it would be... So I need help figuring out what I can wear (in terms of color/color combinations) with it.... Any input would be greatly appreciated!

** I'll post pics of the bag tonight and maybe try some mod pics with the color suggestions I get here!

TIA!

I think orange would pop out the best with black or white clothes. But I also think that there are many other colors you could wear with it. Here are some pics of people with orange bags and different clothes. I found these pictures when I googled "orange bag". I think orange looks great for example with white t-shirt, black accessories and jeans (3rd picture). These aren't LV bag pictures but you can see the color combo from these.

Can't wait to see your bag and your posing pics!

Black would look great FOR SURE, and white too, i second that.
Also, something that I love about Epi bags is that they look very good with patterned clothes, too (which I don't usually wear with mono/damier, I personally prefer solid colours with that).
So, for example, a black & white patterned little dress on the line of this http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/cm/goodhousekeeping/images/wT/ann-taylor-loft-top-fb.gif would be stunning, IMHO.

For a very "dressed down" look, I would go with jeans -who look VERY good with that shade of orange- and a simple t-shirt (white and/or black, again , or dark green, or brown)

I have the Orange Sunset Wilshire and wear it with a lot. It works great with neutrals. Black, white, tan and so on.

Mandarin Epi is gorgeous and the colour is so lush! It should work with anything, but for that added pop, go for something neutral.

I have the epi jasmin in mandarin and I normally wear it with white, khaki and light yellow/beige. I haven't tried black as yet but I think it will work well too.
