Hi! This is my first time posting (so thanks in advance for your opinions/help!)

I am in love with so many of the Miu Miu bags, but I have narrowed it down to three, so please help me decide which one i should buy and in what color..

i'm a college junior, looking to buy a bag that's more sophisticated/suited for going to work in finance, but one that still maintains a younger flair.

1. the Kelly drawstring bag (it comes in yellow, white, brown) http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/c...000141cat000149cat000199cat1910731cat12820739

2. the Calf Leather Drawstring Tote (in white or black) http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main...1408474395222441&bmUID=1168975005235&ev19=1:7

3. the Calf Leather Satchel (in white or brown) http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main...1408474395222441&bmUID=1168975195857&ev19=1:8


which one do you guys like the best? if you have another suggestion, please share! thanks again!

Hi! I wonder if the third one with the bows would be classic enough for a position in finance. Maybe that's the younger flair, tho (I'm not young LOL) If it didn't have bows on the sides #3 would get my vote.

So far, we're not much help!

maybe i should add that it doesn't necessarily have to be a bag that i bring to work (though it could be). i'm just looking for "investment" pieces now, rather than frivolous/trendy bags, if that makes sense. i'm only hesitant of bags that would be more suitable for a more mature woman.

thanks again!

How about one of these:

Miu Miu - Oversize Nappa Leather Tote - Saks.com

or

Miu Miu - Oversized Leather Tote - Saks.com

They re both pretty roomy for papers and stuff for work, and their structure s good for that smart look for work, and they re less bulky than a shopper type of bag.

Thanks for your input guys! I have somewhat refined my list--it's been narrowed down to these 3 (too bad that each comes in multiple colors--more choices!)

1. the Calf Satchel (which color do you like best? i think i liked the black because i don't have a black bag, but it disappeared from the nm website :sad:)

2. the Nappa Drawstring Bag

3. the Nappa Spring Satchel (it also comes in black but the brown leather looks more appealing in this style)

Does anyone have any pictures of people carrying the bag? I really want to see how it would look in real life.

Thanks again!

Hi DukeChickie...

Of the 3 you posted in post #9, I like image #1 or bag #1 best, as you say in black... you can call SAKS - they still have it available and can ship it to you - I called tonite about the same bag in Cognac. So, go for it! That's a classic style you will use and have forever. Hope this helps! Go see it in person too - that will really either help, or totally lead you astray. But either way... it is always good to see a bag IRL (in real life) before making your decision.
