I was changing my bag yesterday as I have recently ordered my favourite Defea in 2 new colours whilst they are only £35 on Amazon. I have a leather defea already in French Navy and a while back I had it in a mid blue colour that was very violetty blue and bright. I rarely used this one because the colour did not "feel" right with the style. Having just received the Defea in Heather Olive and Blaze Yellow (a saffronny- mustard yellow) I notice how much better the bag seems in these shades. As if the Defea was "meant" to be utilitarian and looks best in sludgy earthy shades.
I know kipling is famous for its range of colours as a selling point but maybe, rather than churning out every bag in the same colours every season they should consider the style of the bag and select the colour to suit it.
Anyone else have a favourite style in a few colours- do you feel drawn to the bag in one colour over the others? I also like the Reth but haven't found best colour for it yet. The Bagsational is lovely in port red- not a colour I would normaly like at all but in this style it looks really good. Don't think it would look good in heather olive, whereas the Defea does.
