Handbag/Purse for the Wedding Day?

[LCBride2007]

So I've resumed my search for a smallish clutch for the wedding day. Well, I've been keeping my eyes open, but I also set up a search on eBay. Here are a couple I am "watching" - what do you think? I know the colors look off - but I am assuming/hoping it's just the pictures!

 

 

 

The reason I picked #1 is cuz it seemed to match my dress a little w/the lace overlay:

I really like the first one, assuming it really isn't green. The top almost looks like the one from macy's but minus the lace - La Regala Satin Clucth.

 

Macy*s - Women's - Shoes & Accessories - Handbags - Evening Bags

 

I would go to the DT Macy's they usually have alot to choose from, from simple clucths to cute jeweled clucthes in the shape of things like ladybugs, animals, etc..... I'm assuming they still carry them after the Marshal Fields merger. The're on the bottom floor.

 

Good Luck!

Here are the links on eBay to see the descriptions. They both say ivory! Though the beaded one says a "peachy" color - which I don't want.

I still really like the first one, mainly because of the top portion, it looks so antiquey and elegant, although the funky pictures don't do it justice.

I love the first one and even if its a little green it will be okay since you have green as a wedding color and it would be nice to add a little bit of color into the day...more festive

i vote for one. I think lace looks nicer than beads most of the time - it just has an antique/romantic feel. Plus I think lace looks better with your dress.

ok - what about these 2? i decided i didn't like the other one (w/the beads). they are both on ebay and the 2nd one ends in about 8 hours! maybe i should get both and just sell waht i decide i don't want.

or the satin one:

ohh I love the lace! But doesn't your dress have lace? If so I think you should go with the satin.

[LCBride2007]

it does - it has a lace overlay, kind of like the purse. would that be too much lace?

[amyh]

I think it may be much... BUT.. I doubt you'll be carrying your purse around so I don't think it matters too much..
