I received 2 offered yesterday. One I’m really thinking on.

B25 lime swift phw- perfect combo wrong hardware.

Here’s where I hesitate. I wear all ghw in my jewelry. All of my other quota bags are ghw. I requested lime with ghw and the very first thing my SA said was “I’ve never seen lime with ghw at this store”
I own 2 b 30s one in Barenia f and one in Black chevre. I don’t own a b25 yet mostly because I wasn’t sure if the handles were too tiny for my hands lol



My wishlist this year is lime and mushroom/craie. I often miss my favorite colors (pinks/pastels/greens) because H doesn’t do them in ghw)

What would you do/ advice for me?

I think you just have to figure out how big a deal hardware is to you. Personally I tend to prefer phw but it's not a deal breaker for me if I like a bag. I don't worry about matching my bag with my jewelry. My biggest thing with hardware is that I hate when the tone clashes with the bag color. So I prefer phw on a cool toned bag. Gold on a color like Gris perle just drives me nuts. But again I think this is really a personal preference thing and there is no universal rule that will make your decision easier.

You can ask yourself this: If I don't get this type of offer again, will it be okay with me? If the answer is YES..then you can say "pass".

Girl, you promised yourself you’d not accept another PHW offer because you reallllyyy prefer GHW. I know how tempting it is but DONT TAKE IT. You’ll regret it! Wait for the right one. :smile:

if you're debating it enough in your head to make this thread, then you probably already know your answer.
Just wait for something that you absolutely love.

You are right and it’s the advice I would give as well.

I would absolutely be upset if I didn’t get offered lime again.

I am not a fan of GHW so my inclination would be to tell you to take it to off set all that gold. But you don’t like it. Sounds like hardware is important to you and you are wedded to gold. So don’t do it! You won’t use it.

I normally wouldn’t hesitate but I see some lime bags with ghw and it looks a bit brassy!!!

Oh wait I do have something.

Are ABSOLUTELY you sure you are going to be ok with a 25? You’ve also mentioned you really don’t like the 25 multiple times. Will you be able to go see it to try the size and test out the hardware to make the decision in person.

The last time I tried one I also didn’t like the mini evelyne. Now that’s my fave bag Hahahahha

Okay, so let’s think about that for a moment. You want lime green. You don’t love lime green and GHW. You will be disappointed not to be offered LG again. Do you think, HONESTLY, putting all that together that you would use it?

I feel like it’s enough of a pop for me to wear it but you are right. I wear so much white in spring summer I can just imagine it being so fresh and nice
