Can't decide which one:(
I've been visiting this particular style of flap messenger bag at Prada since I saw first saw it and honestly, I don't know if I love it. I have doubts about it that I can't seem to pinpoint. The quality is not a question. But perhaps it's the size, and even the colour. Speaking of colour, I can't decide which one to get--baltic blue or nero? I know I mentioned previously that the baltic blue is more interesting and something unique. But when I saw it in person, it didn't suit me at all. I don't know why it look so good on photos but realistically, not so much. I tried to look for other options; I saw one from Loewe. The price is more than the Prada, but I actually like everything about it. However, my local Loewe doesn't provide gift boxes. I know it may sound funny, but I do care about such things. I mean, I'm paying for $$$$ amount for a bag and they should at least provide a sturdy gift box. yeah yeah yeah, I have other gift boxes out there, but it won't be the same. I really want that loewe box! But since there's none, then I'm not gonna buy one from them. haha
The other one that I saw was from Hermes. What was I thinking? Why did I even enter Hermes in the first place? Anyway, the accommodating Chinese SA (who seemed like a Filipino to me) showed me the the "Steve" bag (I originally asked for the "Alfred") and one word: perfect! The price however was way too much! Haha. it was 5x more than the Prada and the Loewe. So I forgot about it.
Went back to Prada (DFS) and tried this on--the bag that I fell in love with the moment I saw it. This was originally the baltic blue, but I photoshopped it to colour black. Hehe.
I know I said I already have many black bags, but I have to say that black is just so classic and timeless. I think I'm gonna go with the black. But I still can't decide which one I'm going to get.
I know this sounds ridiculous, but this is a big deal for me. After all, it's one of the most expensive item I'll ever buy for myself so I have to love it 100%. I really work hard in school, and now that I'm about to finish, I think I deserve to treat myself.
