Houston We Have a Problem

i realize i have bigger problems then this (much bigger) - but this is 1 problem i need to solve ASAP before i lose it - i NEED a new bag (i go through serious withdraws - this is no laughing matter) - so far i have bought and returned numerous bags over the past few months - they just didn't fit the bill - but there are 3 bags that i never pulled the trigger on, but just won't leave my head ..

Option 1
Chloe Large Paraty

Option 2
Givenchy Large Nightingal

Option 3
Proenza Schouler Large PS1 

(all bags are on FORWARD website)


not only are all 3 killer choices - but WHAT color? - do i go classic? - do i get a color i don't have? (pale pink possibly?) - do i not get a Chloe b/c i already have the Paddington? - so do i go with a Givenchy or Proenza b/c i don't have either label? - it's going to be obviously an investment piece (which i really can't afford right now, but some things you just gotta get before you have a nervous breakdown, ya know) - *augh* - the things that keep me up at night! - and to think i actually have 'real' problems to worry about - and yet i still sweat over this

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?!
Is it possible to not buy any?
help a sista' out!

  1. Oh yes I remember you wanted a Nightingale for a while! I think the Nightingale will last for decades and is under the radar, but a PS1 in a nice color would be a workhorse kinda bag. I'm all about cross body options!

  2. I have to say, I love the first one. Only red is too loud for me. I would line up your collection and buy the one that fills it in. I just bought a blue one for spring. You didn't give the links. Where do you buy your bags?

  4. The Chloe and PS1 are my two dream bags too so I'm of no help- I think I'd go with the PS1 just because it's so versatile.

  6. oh the bag debate...I am familiar with the conflict!
    I love the PS bag. I hope to get one someday (but not right now).
    Classic colors are great but I think unconventional colors can be a great investment too when it comes in a classic silhouette. =)

  7. second one: it goes with anything, more classic, a good investment

  8. Such a fun post Erika! I think I'd go with #3 if I was only able to get one.. otherwise, I'd go with a black one too :) Great colors and they look like they are the perfect size.

  11. We're so alike! I can't wait to get a new bag, usually I used to buy a statement bag each year...then came three children and the priorities sort of changed...but I still love a good handbag! If I had to choose Iof these I would go for the Chloe...a classic but edgy colour maybe! xo Caroline

  14. You certainly are a girl who loves her handbags! If you were shopping with me I'd encourage you to get all three. Screw it. You can't take it with you! xo

  15. I love the Chloe and the Proenza but for the most versitile, classic and most wear (cross body etc) I would go for the Proenza. They just don't date as well :)
