I'll preface with this the fact that I'm a die-hard kuro loli, so I tend to go for black if I can.

My only worry is with the pink purse- while the pink appears to match your dress very well- there's a pretty large white/cream bow, and I don't see too much white in your dress. I think maybe if you had used a white blouse, the pink purse would work, but since you have the black blouse, I think the black purse works better. But even the black purse has white pearls on it. Maybe add a pearl necklace to tie the black purse back into the coord? But then again, that might be too matchy-matchy for your taste.

It's ultimately up to you, and I apologize if I only made it harder, but the above includes all the pros and cons- for me, at least.

That is GORGEOUS dress by the way. I haven't been able to follow brands lately due to a slow internet connection that hates loading pictures. I'd love to know the name/brand!

Yeah, that would be my worry too. I though that that cream bow/trim might match some of the cream accents in the dress with the candy canes and the gingerbread men, but it might be too light.

The buttons on the blouse are pearls, and I have a pearl bracelet and pearl earrings to match! I will get the black purse.

Thank you! It's Baby the Stars Shine Bright's Slow Motion Bouquet JSK. It's a 2012 print. I found it on EGL Comm. Sales.

Both purses are super cute, but I agree with the first commenter that the black purse would match better. I think the pearls on the bag match well with the lighter elements of the dress but it's not too bright. The pink bag I feel might look out of place by being too light in colors.

I also agree that is a beautiful dress! :)

I will definitely get the black purse then! Thank you for your help!

I'd say go black. Mostly because, chances are, it will match more of your wardrobe.
Also, if you don't want to worry about shipping and stuff, you could always go to stores/a mall near you in search of a bag. It won't be as cute, but you won't have to worry about shipping times and fees. And check thrift and consignment stores if you can. They have lots of unique purses!

(Your coord is really cute, by the way!)

I've been shopping around locally for a while but I just can't seem to find anything loliable in my area. Ordering online is definitely my last resort, but I'll probably be much happier with this black purse anyway!

(Thank you very much! <3 )

I think the black one is better too, and the pearls on it are not a big deal. Even I think they'll lighting your whole look with some small and delicate things.

Yes, I will get the black purse. I hope the pearls lighten it up, yeah! My initial worry with getting a black purse was that it would melt in with the rest of the co-ord or make it too dark but I don't think that will be a problem with this purse.

Both purses are super cute, but for this coord I'd definitely say black. The pink purse is so light and pastel-y overall that even if the dress has pinks with it it doesn't really seem to match.

Yeah, the pink is a little too pale for all the darker colours. Black it is!
