The battle between the two siblings!


Soooo... I was casually browsing on the Louis Vuitton website.. and its not a website I commonly browse so I don't know what has gotten into me! But came across another new bag... well it may have been showcasing on the website but I've actually only just noticed it!


But anyhoo.. this bag that I picked (the bag on the left called Brea MM) is also in Florantin and yes, I seem to be loving this color tone atm and since this bag has appeared I am rather torn! My heart was originally set on the Alma on the right hand side... but... iono... this Brea has gotten me all confused!

Im working out the pros & cons to see which one I actually "want" more. So... pro - I do love the zippy kinda bags for that extra security feeling rather than it being exposed so both are ideal... but Brea also comes with a strap - pro.. which I occasionally use and comes in handy when my hands are full!

Pro - I feel that the alma is more classy and "longer lasting" - I get bored very easily.. and so the Alma may be the kind of bag that I would continually wear and pass on to my daughter.

Con - The handles on the Alma... it looks so chunky and... plasticy??

Con - The handles on the Brea is actually the only thing putting me off from choosing this bag... it looks kinda flimsy (even though I know its durable) and kinda cheapy looking but same goes with the Alma handle too?

Ahhh I can't win with either handles, but its the color tone & size of the bags that keeps my heart fluttering!

oh and one final big con! Even though I love love love the color... how practical is this color? Will it scratch, fade or mark easlily?? How will this color do maintaining??

Im quite careful with my bags anyways.. but I do own a white leather Marc Jacobs bag which looks like it's had better days and is in need of a spa day, oh and I own a pink tone mui mui and beige mui mui bag... and they've darkened on the corners... but the beige mui mui is in some sort of soft leathery suede s that doesn't help... but my light beige Chanel GST looks as good as new even though thats one years old so... maybe... owning a florantin Louis Vuitton won't be so difficult to maintain either?

Which one to choose????

Well... I have until next weekend to decide as next weekend I shall be going to london to celebrate our own little valentines day and so I intend to do a little retail therapy! I wonder which one I end up coming home with.. an even bigger suprise would be if I don't come home with Ms Louis Vuitton but Ms Chanel instead!.... I wish!!

Until next weekend... you'll all get to see which one I decide on!
