(Mini Mac in Lilac – Mini 5 Zip in Mint)
Those of you who are a fan of my FaceBook page will already know about this as I post to my social media accounts before I do my blog, but I thought it was about time I posted here too! It’s mine and my boyfriends 5 year anniversary coming up in a couple of weeks and he wanted to get me something special, I originally said no to a Rebecca Minkoff bag as it’s expensive, but he twisted my arm, so I had the choice between the Lilac and Mint, both of which I love.
I did order the Lilac shade and it arrived a few days ago, it’s actually a lot heavier than I was expecting due to the chain and although it’s pretty, it just doesn’t wow me like I thought it would, but then I haven’t tried wearing it with an outfit. My question is though, which would you have picked? The Lilac Mini Mac or the Mint Mini 5 Zip?
I am obsessed with Mint at the moment and I do think it’s gorgeous, but I’m unsure. After spending time looking at and admiring the Lilac one, I do like it, just not as much as I thought, but then I’m not sure if I would feel exactly the same way about the Mint one if I ordered it. The unfortunate thing is that I have to order it from the US, so after customs/taxes/shipping etc it’s not easy to just return it. What would you have picked? Or do any of you own these bags?
I would choose mint<3 It's a beautiful color and I love the zips

It is definitely pretty!
Hi Lorna!
The lilac Mini MAC is gorgeous, you made a good choice with that one! I do think it suits your style more than the Mini 5 Zip (just my opinion though). It’s also more versatile – you can use it for casual or dressed up occasions. The Mini 5 Zip is lovely too, but a bit more quirky (although there’s nothing wrong with that!) and the many fabric zip pulls do get dirty quick quickly.
Hope you enjoy your bag!!

Aren’t they pretty?!
I love both colours but I think I prefer the mint because of the zip detail 🙂

That’s a 3rd vote for mint 🙂
I’m a bit partial to zippers, but then I’m more of a lilac person than a mint person. Both a gorgeous bags though xxx
