I don't think the color is so out there that it will look dated in a few years, but the bigger thing to consider is whether it fits into your overall style. Does it go with your outerwear and clothes?</p> <p>@nwm: yes :bummed: the one time I got a pink bag, it got so dirty so fast. And it was one of my favorite bags, too! But it was fabric so it could not be cleaned - maybe leather holds up better... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854560 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 20:49:12 +0000 crazydoglady 2854560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LCTBQE: Those are pretty! They actually have the bag in this color, too. I swear I am not obsessed with Lily Jade. .ok maybe I am. 😅 </p> [attach=8671/18/phlh20.337x600.Screenshot_20181102-184811.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854519 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 15:48:51 +0000 PawPrints 2854519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is definitely a trend, but I wouldn't let that stop me since I love the color. We actually just painted our basement a dusty rose-inspired hue since I can't get enough of it. If you get tired of it in a few years, you can always sell it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854514 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 14:58:28 +0000 LCTBQE 2854514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2littlepumpkins: yes totally agree, I think the true lavenders/lilacs will trend out in a few years too. but IMO the bag in the OP is more like a ballet pink which I don't think will date itself, it always comes back like a dog :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854512 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 14:56:12 +0000 LCTBQE 2854512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: hahaha, I remember when I was young and lived in the midwest, pre-internet, all the trends would show up like a full decade late. </p> <p>Like this lighter orangey-brown color, less chocolatey, but don't know if it's too close to your diaper bag for your taste.<br /> Another idea that is similar to your blush bag but might have more longevity and will go with everythingggg: natural vachetta, like a nude color. did anyone suggest that yet? I have one and rather than get dirty, it has gotten a really nice patina and it still looks great like 4 years later. </p> [attach=6423/18/phl0po.600x473.Screen-Shot-2018-11-02-at-2.52.43-PM.png] [attach=6423/18/phl0pp.488x600.Screen-Shot-2018-11-02-at-3.46.11-PM.png] [attach=6423/18/phl0pq.201x251.images.jpeg] [attach=6423/18/phl0pr.480x600.simone.crossbody.1.w_grande.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854501 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 13:21:55 +0000 snowjewelz 2854501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd get brown/black/gray/taupe for an expensive bad I'd be using for a long time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854500 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 13:17:28 +0000 pachamama 2854500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: it is absolutely gorgeous but I do think it's trendy! I think the real neutrals like camel, beige, black, and gray will get you further. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854491 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 13:00:00 +0000 crazydoglady 2854491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: That's a great idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854482 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 12:39:38 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2854482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: it’s gorgeous, but I think I’d only get this color in an inexpensive bag at like Target.. they’re just as pretty and don’t need to last forever. I’d get brown or black if I was investing more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854472 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 11:55:30 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2854472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LCTBQE: I thought the millennial pink was replaced with more purple colors as another trendy thing.. </p> <p>Either way it'll be dated probably, but not yet and anyway my thought on that is who cares, things always come back around. In other words get what you like! I would do it anyway! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854471 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 11:46:19 +0000 crazydoglady 2854471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: That's a great perspective!<br /> @looch: Brown is out? Shoot...i am usually a die hard brown purse fan. I never jumped on the gray bandwagon. I agree about shape for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854470 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 11:44:20 +0000 crazydoglady 2854470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilary: Such a good point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854469 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 11:43:51 +0000 crazydoglady 2854469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LCTBQE: Exactly the answer the "style answer" I was looking for. Funny thing, because we live in the freaking middle of nowhere, we just got millennial pink here. 😂 </p> <p>Do you mean a color like this? I love it, but it's the same exact leather that my diaper bag is and I was hoping to branch out. I mean, I could always look into other designers too... I just really love how my bag has held up from daily use for 2 years and I am hard on things. Plus, its in the 200-300 range which I don't think is too bad for a really nice and well executed bag. </p> [attach=8671/18/phkrt3.600x600.LJade-March-BrittanyBrandy-02.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854466 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 11:40:01 +0000 hilary 2854466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE the blush, but would hesitate because sometimes my dark wash jeans bleed color on light color bags so I wouldn't that to happen on anything but the cheapest of handbags. I always opt for darker because it hides wear better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854454 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 11:06:30 +0000 Mrsbells 2854454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you like it now then I vote that you get it. You will still like it in a few years. I dont think it matters if the color is still "in" or not </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854444 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 10:45:07 +0000 LCTBQE 2854444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The color of blush that is trending out/has already trended out is a warmer color of blush that has more yellow in it--they call it millennial blush. This one that you posted is a more lilac color of blush which I think is not too faddish. But like @nwm: said, it'll get filthy after a couple years, so I wouldn't spend big money on it (whatever that means to you budget-wise). If you want something that will last and last and never trend out, what about a nice warm saddle brown color? I love love that color for handbags. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854440 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 10:34:34 +0000 looch 2854440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like color, but the last bag I bought myself is black, which I haven't done in about 15 years.</p> <p>I do think you will eventually tire of the color and it will look dated...I just pulled a bag out from storage and I thought the shape looked rather current, even though the color (brown) dates it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854433 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 10:08:26 +0000 Kaohinani 2854433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: I am a truly "classic" girl with carry alls and bags. I have always erred on the safe side of black, gray, and tan purses and diaper bags; however, lately, I have found myself gravitating towards punches of color. My belief is that it doesn't matter if the color will be "in" or "out," rather, is the design timeless? (* Colors cycle and alternate... what is in one year will be out the next but will come back the following season. It is fickle.) Also, is the bag of a quality material that will last my splurge? Most importantly, how much do I LOVE a particular color and design? If there is any question, I can not reason with myself to make the purchase.</p> <p>P.S. I adore both of the selections you posted ... so, honestly, I'm of no help. 😉🙄😏🤣 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854432 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 10:07:40 +0000 bushelandapeck 2854432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: that’s where I bought both of mine! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854430 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 10:02:06 +0000 crazydoglady 2854430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bushelandapeck: I love the Rosie.

I'd say go for it. The color may eventually be more appropriate for more spring/summer, but even then you can still carry it half the year :happy: . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854420 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 09:31:46 +0000 bushelandapeck 2854420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: I have a brandy Madeline and a brandy Rosie.

I already have a Shaylee otherwise I would. I hope they plan to make some of their lifestyle bags in the Old English. Which bag do you have? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854416 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 09:19:31 +0000 bushelandapeck 2854416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live LJ! I would probably pass on the pink and opt for something more timeless but I say get what you love! Have you seen the new dark brown they came out with? I’m loving that color! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854415 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 09:17:40 +0000 lioneyes 2854415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think fad or not, get what you like. BUT i do think the black is better for year round and the blush works best for spring/summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854413 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 09:04:24 +0000 crazydoglady 2854413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And for no reason...here is the more traditional option </p> [attach=8671/18/phkkfd.337x600.Screenshot_20181102-065329.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-think-this-color-will-be-dated-in-a-few-years#post-2854410 Fri, 02 Nov 2018 08:51:52 +0000 crazydoglady 2854410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With Christmas coming up, I am toying with the idea of getting a new purse. The same designer of my much loved diaper bag came out with a line of purses like this one in blush. I want something I will love for years since they aren't cheap, but I am concerned this color is just a trend that will die out and I will wish I had gotten something more traditional. Anyway,...</p> <p>[attach=8671/18/phkjug.337x600.Screenshot_20181101-123328.png] </p>
