Why the popincourt over the batignolles?

I don't like the side thingy on the Batignolles. I can't explain really well what it's called.

Really? I like those beause it gives the bag a little flexibilty size-wise, and some interesting detail that it wouldn't have w/o them.
Interesting!

It's the srunch or fold that I don't like. But that's just me. :shame:
 
I know how you feel swankymama! But I opted for the batignolles horizontal and am soo happy with my choice! Here's how I chose between the two:

Popincourt - Very stiff, less casual, smaller size, but beautiful shape and love those little balls! Also has a zipper...

Batignolles - "Slouchier" leather, much larger, side buckles, but no zipper (only hook closure)

Personally, I prefered the slouchier, less structured look of the batignolles...Hope this helps!
