Which Bag? UPDATED

I get my yearly bonus next week, and want to buy a new bag with a portion of it. Which bag should I buy?

1. Louis Vuitton Speedy 25-classic and I think it will always be in style.

2. Kooba Jessie Python Small Shoulder Bag-a bit more trendy, but very cute.
ETA:

Thanks for all the input ladies...I'm actually going to be purchasing this Kooba instead of the one previously postes. I found it on sale on line and I had seen it in the stores and LOVE it.
And I'm asking for the Speedy for my bday....This is the Kooba Sloan in Bark.

Re: Which Bag?

I would get the LV bag first. You are right, it is a classic and stand the test of time. I got the Speedy 30 and it really is a classic piece that I can see myself using for a long time.

ETA: I do love the Kooba, since i already have the LV, the Kooba is next for me! Chat Icon

Re: Which Bag?

I like them both- but I would get the LV first- since it's a classic

and I like how it looks with black and brown- so that leaves you more options

I'm leaning towards the Louis...b/c of how classic it is...

The Kooba is so cute, though....hmm..maybe I'll buy both...

Keep the opinions coming ladies!

Kooba

I have no interest in logos, canvas and I find the Speedy too common (whether it's real or fake.)

Re: Which Bag?

If you are ridulously loaded I would go with the Kooba because you can afford to be trendy.

If this is a big purchase for you I would go with LV because it will never go out of style.

I might be able to swing the two..being that I turn 30 this year and can persuade DH to buy me one for my bday.

Re: Which Bag?

Re: Which Bag?

To me this is a no-brainer. Go with the LV first it is classic and will always be in style....plus they never go on-sale, nor do they have sample sales.

Wait for the Kooba sample sale in NYC and then you can pick up the Kooba as well for like $200.

Re: Which Bag?

I have the kooba jessie in python rose. I love this bag - it really is the perfect size. I gave my ssisterinlaw the exact bag you have pictured here for christmas, and I got it at the Kooba sample sale in NYC! They should be having another one in the spring time.
It is a big difference (ie: $175 as opposed to Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon ) If you can wait...then wait..otherwise get it online - do some research w/ coupon codes - you can definitely get it for free shipping plus 20-25% off retail price (sometimes depending on where you buy from you can get no sales tax too!).

I like LV too...just not that particular bag. I'm more of a shoulder bag person.
If you need any help researching - let me know!

Thanks for all the help ladies...I'm still weighing me options. I really want both. I'm going to try and find the Kooba for less, then see if I can get the Louis.
