My Vintage Yellow Selma arrived today. I am not sure about the color or how it wears with ME?

So should it stay or go? Trust me, I can't get offended by a truthful, "It's not you, girl."

What say you ladies?

I like it! Looks pretty neutral and compliments you well. I just bought it in black. Love the bag but if you're not totally feeling it don't keep it.
 
I like the color... however, my personal belief is if you question the bag in anyway, perhaps it isn't the best fit. My milky white skin (lol... I really need some sun in my life) with pinkish undertones means the color yellow just looks...well... awkward. As does gold jewelry of any sort.

With that being said, I think you look lovely with the bag! Nevertheless, bags are so personal and it should make you feel glamorous! If not... there are always other colors to be found! :sunshine:

Thank you. I'm a Strawberry Blond who looks better in browns, black, blue, green, red and gold. Pastels make me look washed out. And some bright colors make my freckles scream! :nogood: I'm more of an "Autumn" color-gal.
 
My honest vote is no. Maybe it's the lighting, but it doesn't look as bright yellow as in the postings I've seen online. You mention it is more of a tangerine color than yellow...so it tends more towards orange than yellow. I think other colors may favor you more....For instance, you looked great with your mandarin Selma.

I think you're right. I was hoping this bag might be more of a darker, gold-ish color. I'm probably going to take it back. I'll sleep on it first though (NOT literally!) :p
 
From the picture it doesn't look that bright. I think yellow can work more like a neutral. You are young as I and even so I think the style of the bag is more for us women than young girls. I say wear what makes u happy and I personally like people noticing my bags before they notice me :). Lol, I would have a third home if I didn't want people seeing my bags first...And if u do return it then no worries because u will find the one that doesn't make u second guess. Sleeping on it is a great idea and can't wait to hear if u keep it. Good luck!
 
I think it looks amazing with your coloring! I saw this color in person last weekend and can just picture it going perfectly with browns, khakis, greys and black this fall. I vote keep!
 
I don't think a handbag has to match your coloring. After all, you're not really wearing it against your skin like you do clothes. Does it go with anything in your closet? As an accent? Do you like it? It sounds like you don't really love it (or else you wouldn't be questioning it). If that's the case, get rid of it and wait for another color that you do love. You know they'll be coming out with more colors!
 
I don't think you will carry it much to justify it. Unless you just want to collect it, don't keep it. I only say that because you are undecided, and I'm thinking of how I would feel myself. Its a beautiful bag though.
 
The bag is gorgeous but you shouldn't keep it. You've had it one day when it should be the most exciting day to get it, the first day, and you have doubts. Use the money on one you absolutely love!

Oh and I think the color looks great on you! You always match your outfits well to your handbags.
 
Y'all are great! I appreciate every comment. You've given me some things to ponder. I do really like the color, just like I love pink. But, I couldn't carry a raspberry or fuchsia bag because I know those colors look awful on me, and I would feel quite uncomfortable carrying something that pretty when it isn't "ME."

I do have plenty of browns, blacks and greens in my closet which would go well with the Vintage Yellow. Tomorrow, I'll try the bag with some of those outfits and maybe take a pic or two in better light. If I still have any doubts, the bag will go back. I don't buy purses to just sit in my closet. If I'm going to feel apprehensive carrying it, then it should go back.

Again, thank you all for your input. Stay tuned!
