Help me decide which colour bag I should get next.

Ok, I have a chocolate brown MAM, a black MBMJ Hillier Hobo and a hot pink small crossbody MBMJ.  I have been searching for a nice crossbody grey bag for over 2 years now and can't find one that I like.  I'm wondering if I should look for a different colour to expand the search.  If you had the bags I have what colour would you get next?

Suggestions to bags would be great too (leather only)!  I would like to keep it under $500 if possible. Thanks

Re: Help me decide which colour bag I should get next.

  • I would actually get a brightly colored fabric bag for spring-summer.  I have two:  One is s Michael Kors mulitple color striped canvas while the other is Kate Spate bright pink abstract floral.  Both have leather bottoms.  Leather bottoms are key to durability. 
  • I am one of those rare ppl that doesn't have a great black bag. I always get color! anyway, so I NEED a black purse. My second choice would be a neon yellow or tangerine satchel like this...for fun, of course!

    2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

  • I'd go with a bright-colored leather bag.  I can't wait to bust out one of my old-time fav's - it's the one Coach bag that I couldn't get rid of!

  • I have a red orange kate spade bag.  I thought I wouldnt be able to get much use out of it but it matches suprisingly well with a lot of my outfits. I would love a kelly green bag as well.

    If you are looking for grey Cole Haan had a really pretty grey color they were doing last season.

  • Personally I'd go for cognac since I like it much better than chocolate brown. If not that then I'd say green or a cream color. If you can't find true grey that you like you may try a mushroom type color (like a brown/grey).

  • Do you like Orla Kiely? If you want a cross-body, I highly recommend them. For being a bright pattern, I use my Orla Kiely bags pretty often. This is cute:

    Or -- I would choose a tan/luggage color or cream. I also have a dark brown MAB and sometimes it's just too dark...I would love to get a luggage-colored one that would look nice with black (the dark brown clashes with black).

  • Sorry - i just re-read that you want leather-only! The Orla Kiely one is coated fabric.
