i have a pewter small trigger bag (which was $410) and i really liked it at first, but i find myself carrying other bags more often now. at the time, i thought it was worth the price, but now i'd probably save more money and get a different bag.

I think they are nice, but the way they are split into two sections would probably annoy me wehn trying to find things, like my wallet, keys and cellphone.

These two bags are just so lovely, its hard to decide which one. Both has this sturdy, casual look thats great for everyday bag.

The crescent bag is $625 and the shoulder bag is $590.
I think the crescent is cuter, but it might be harder to open than the shoulder bag. hmm...? decision... decision.. does anyone own any of this bag yet?

I also love the trigger bag. The bag works, it stays on your shoulder, it's not too heavy, you can find everything right away, I never worry about pick pockets and the leather is soft. I carry it more frequently than my BV's, Gucci's or MJ bags.

Of all of the Botkiers.. I think I like the Clyde... but I think it doesnt go on y our shoulder.. and if that's true.. then i hate it!

So I've purchased the almond trigger a month ago and I've carried it a few times. However, if your heart desires for a balenciaga, I'd say save up for it. (that's what I'm doing now) I don't regret getting the almond trigger though, it's such a splendid color. I didn't really dig the pink.

I question whether it's worth the money, but I hate regrets. So I'm going to happily enjoy this bag before the $$$ for the balenciaga rolls around.

The Holster is kinda cool

in general, I don't like them. I saw a trigger in person recently and it did not impress. I don't like the design, the materials, nothing. sorry. but if I had to pick one, it would be this (I think it's the Clyde

My hairstylist has a Botkier. When I first saw it, I was like "Ive seen that bag before" then it hit me. It was a white Trigger (pretty sure) it was alright in person, doesn't really stand out as anything very special.

I think these bags are good for everyday use , travel or if you need a diaper bag. They are reasonable for the price and not that seasonal.

I personally like the Botkier trigger better than the newer styles.. those are GREAT bags - so roomy. www.botkier.com:heart:

i like the shoulder bag better, but in general i prefer shoulder bags because i like versatility.

not a big fan of the gold hardware, its too trendy.

if you are going to pay that much for a bag, you want one that isnt so trendy that you can wear for a while.

I like the first one...
