(kinda long, sorry). so i'm in the market for a new bag. it's an investment in the sense that i'm willing to spend more money on it than i have on previous bags, but i'm not looking to buy like an mj or anything like that. just something that's fun, funky, and leather, and preferably under $600 (but less is better)
right now these are the contenders -- though i probably won't be making the purchase until closer to summer. any feedback would be greatly appreciated, and if anyone's seen a really hot bag (outside of the bulgas) feel free to post it. oh sorry in advance if the pics are really large.
(i like these b/c they're all pretty inexpensive and still cute)
though i think the suede version is a bit nicer
or (but i wish it came in a color other than black)
this is the front runner (though i would want it in the oxblood which i don't see online anymore). thoughts?
i like the first and third bag the best. although with the first bag i wonder if the grommet detailing will make it look dated a few seasons from now. it looks hot but its very reminiscent of the gladiator/boho look thats really in right now.
I like the red Marc Jacobs purse the most and would totally buy it myself if it came in camel. personally I need a camel purse, but I do love red. And the price isn't bad at all. ooh honey, the MJ double-handed satchel? Try Saks. That purse actually caught my eye a couple weeks ago, but Saks still had them in more colors back then.
ETA: I really like the white purse too and the first brown studded purse, but I wonder if studs will look outdated soon?

Seashells, it's marc by marc jacobs via eluxury.
bean, i was totally in saks on sat. and didn't see the bag. though the saks i go to is weird b/c it's easy to find the really, really pricey bags and hard to find the mid-range stuff.
ugg, i'm so torn. i really do like the pleated bag, but i feel like i might something i like more (does that make sense) and i think the botkier would be a really good choice (in terms of longevity) but i really don't like the colors they have online right now.

Oh, I meant saks online. Here is the bag in camel:
and deludelu posted it in blue. I know what you mean though... the perfect bag is so hard to find. You feel torn because you're afraid once you commit & buy one, you'll see another one you like better!
