I love this combo too, the pink and red together ❤️

This is my fifth Bazar bag! Funnily enough, the one that has held up the worst is the only solid color I own, a gray S. It is actually now with MyTheresa for assessment as the bit holding the strap unstitched. Also, the corners are showing quite a bit of wear despite not having worn it much. The leather has some sort of glazing...

By contrast the striped Bazars are doing great! The leather is exactly like the one of the lambskin Moto bags and softens with age. I have had my other Bazar clutch for over 2 years now and I use it a ton, Because you hold it with your hands I thought it would get dirtier, particularly the white parts, but it still looks good. My M size “Rive Gauche” tote has been battered to death. I use it as a work bag, travel with it, use for shopping .... yesterday I filled it up to the brim in the supermarket with vegs and groceries. It is slouchy for sure but not showing any corner wear. Only some blue in the bottom shows a bit of a stain (Bal and blues!). I am actually thinking of getting another in this size to give this one a rest...

Love this Bazar colour combination :loveeyes: I know you have some of the other Bazar colour combinations as well, how do the white stripes hold up? Do they get dirty and scuffed easily- and how does the leather as a whole hold up?

Thank you, doni, I know someone else posted somewhere here asking about the quality of the Bazars so I hope they find your post. I get the impression from the scattered posts I've read here that the striped Bazars hold up better than the mono coloured, but maybe that's not correct.

I've been looking at the Bazar cardholders in "Rive Gauche" and this red-pink-black, just because I love the colours so much, but I don't think I can justify more cardholders. Because how many card holders does one really need?! I know, wrong question to ask on tPF :lol:

:rofl: yeah, don’t look my way per your last comment!!! Although easy justification is by rotating card holders frequently (like bags) it preserves their looks:graucho: That’s my story :hugs:
