Default Lambskin or Caviar

Here's another question I have for you ladies: Would you rather have a classic flap in baby soft, yet delicate lambskin OR durable but stiffer caviar?

I'd have to get the caviar. I'd rather the lambskin but I'd be afraid to even touch it since it scratches so easily...

I like the Caviar because it is more durable.

If you accidentally scratch the leather is there anythingnyiu can do to fix it and also is it noticeable? Maybe if you get white lambskin ( although I admit I am not a handbag expert so they might not even make them) it wouldnt be as bad?

My vote is the lambskin.

The caviar is more durable but the lambskin is to die for. I have the black caviar and it certainly holds up well. If I could have gotten the lambskin, I probably would have.

I guess then it's a matter of personality and choice... if you're someone like me who tends to be a bit careless (sometimes abusive) towards bags... caviar would be it.... if you don't have to run around so much and the bag's mainly for lunches..... or if you're very delicate.... then lambskin it is :D

or one could do both
