Same same but different

Same same but different

I have sold quite a few things on ebay lately and would like to splurge on something nice. So now it's decision time. Here are my ideas:

1. A good quality coat (pros - I can wear it in Japan, I don't own a warm coat that I really love; cons - I lie in QLD, I can probably get by with my Country Road hip-length coat)
Options: Karen Walker - $560/ $320

2. A handbag (pros - my everyday mid-size bag is worn to death so I can see a definite gap in this department, colour goes with everything; cons - I already have a Marion and my baby bag that I am getting by with, have to be careful doesn't get baby-damaged)
Options: Alexander Wang Rockie/ Emile - $620/ $920

3. A ring (pros - could get my daughter's name engraved inside as a sort of birth memento; cons - gold expensive, but silver could get tarnished)
Options: Karen Walker single or multi-flower in gold or silver - $635 gold/ $95 silver; $865 gold/ $120 silver


What would you do?

    hmm I'd probably go with the bag. I adore both the rockie and the emilie, the colour is gorgeous and it would definitely go with everything x

    As I've seen both KW coats, I can attest to the fact that the left coat is much heavier than the one on the right, although the boucle fabric could be a little scratchy if you have sensitive skin.

    As for the handbag, get an emile! I love the dove gray, there's a girl in Wgtn who has one in the small size and she always looks so chic.

    And the rings - I LOVE them both. Have to ask where you found them online? xx

      Hmm heavier is good for Japan but it would mean I'd hardly get to wear it back home. What is the coat on the right like?

      The rings are from the KW online store. Maybe I shroud get the ring in silver so I can get the bag as well.

    I'd go with the Rocco bag. It's currently on my wish list as well :) xA

    I've only seen the mercury Emile at Cultstatus and Saks. Has anyone seen it cheaper anywhere? Or know a discount code?
