Bag advice
Permalink Closed


So I was at Marshalls tonight. There was this Lovcat bag on sale for $88... it retails for $250. I really like it, but I already have a pale pink Juicy leather bag with gold hardware. Do you think the Lovcat bag is cute enough for me to go back and get or is it not that cute and too much like the one I already have?


This is the bag at Marshalls...it looks purple-y in this picture but is really a pale pink.



This is the bag I already have.

I adore Lovcat bags, I have a wallet from them and it's so so so cute and great quality leather. I would go for it because I just think it is so cute. But then again, I really like the one you have already. They are very similar...tough call.

I'd skip it. I'm not to crazy about the hearts. Its more cutesy then cute IMO. maybe if it was in a different color.

I'm not sure I'd pay $88 for it. The hearts are not really my style.  I do love that juicy bag, though (and I am not a juicy bag fan!). How much does it retail for?

I think the Lovcat bag is best left to the cutesy types. It's cute and I love it, but after a certain age carrying a bag with stitched hearts is...well...juvenile.


I love that Juicy bag you have much more. I can't believe it's Juicy...I haven't been too fond of their bags but this one is really nice!

I agree I think the bag is a bit young looking I would skip it.

Not too big on the heart design, I reallly like the one you already have. Very chic, and classy.

I have to be honest here, and please don't take any offense...but it reminds me of the brand fetish or baby phat, which seems far from your style...but maybe it is much cuter in person. I do like your other bag better. Sorry, not trying to be a bitch!

Thanks for everybody's input. You're right... mine is cuter and I really don't need the other one.


I just get so excited at Marshalls and TJ Maxx here because there is SO much good stuff and if I find something priced at significantly less than retail, I think I need it. That's the nice thing about living in Florida... none of the old people want any of the good, designer stuff at these kind of stores so I have an easier time finding great deals.

Why don't you see if its selling on ebay and if it is or if similar lovecat bags are you can always list it for $88 and make some money.  Marshall's has a 30 day return policy so if it doesn't sell on ebay you can return it.  I do like it though and if I had the $88 I'd buy it.

The e-bay idea is great, I bought a North Face fleece at Marshall's and I am going to sell it on e-bay...I have never ever seen North Face at Marshalls, so...:)
