The Mathematics of Retail Therapy

I have been keeping an eye out for a neutral bag for summer for ages without much luck. I really want something I can wear with both pastels and tan/darker brown shoes and clothes. So far I have narrowed it down to the Miu Miu Bow Satchel and the Chloe Darla Bag. The research was collated by a team of experts and put into this very professional looking chart. The results of the scoring system (negative one point for a con, plus one point for a pro) were then put into the pie chart.























So with the 50/50 outcome you can see my trouble.
Does anyone have a preference or better yet another option? I am sure the perfect bag is out there somewhere!

    I really like the Chloe bag but I think it is less relaxed looking so maybe the Miu Miu - clearly I am no help at all.

    Go the Miu Miu! Like someone else said, it's a bit more relaxed for summer in my opinion ... :)

    I think the MiuMiu looks better and more versatile than the Chloe. You could wear it in a more rock-ish outfit or even to work as the Chloe doesn't really go with everything.
    Also thanks for following!
