mawpowwow, I'd say Canard GSH too... I'm getting a Canard RH PT though (cos it's lighter and I already have an Officier GSH). Hehe... Anthracite seems to be available for every season for the past few seasons, so maybe get something 'rarer'? Though I must say that the swatch for Anthracite looks pretty with blue undertones to the gray.

Hmm, interesting that Tomate pencil is waitlisted while Outremer pencil is not. (I just emailed Erica over the weekend) I was mulling over a Tomate Mini2 or Pencil. Guess I shall stick to my Sang and Outremer (Spiderman/ Superman comes to mind...

)

Def go for the canard gsh pt

how's the GH PT going for you ieweuyhs?? Is it heavy if you load it up maybe 60% full?

All this Outremer talk is making me

I dont need a pencil now... Haha, have you guys seen the iphone pouch?

Contemplating between that and the cuff bracelet which I have yet to try in Hilton when I get back this month WHEE! Hope the new premises would be ready!

I don't have a GH PT... I don't have a PT at all... The Canard RH PT will be my first. I have a GH City though. I find the weight ok but then again I'm used to lugging heavy stuff.

iPhone pouch??? Where where???? Time to google...

ieweuyhs · Nov 1st, 2009, 10:58 PM

Hmm, doesn't look very Bal like... Was expecting a front zip and two side buckles... HAHA. And there's only one colour....

romanticomedy · Nov 1st, 2009, 11:06 PM

Ohhh... I shall try out the PT and every other style I possibly can at Hilton then! See if I'm ok with the weight

Yeaa they only have them in 1 colour right now, I shall wait and see if they have it in the new season colours!

Yea, there only is the old school double sided BB logo. Usually see those logos on the vintage Bal stuff on eBay. Heh!

Hmmm... Hope this doesn't become a dialogue between the two of us again on the entire page.

I think everything at Bal Hilton is GH. Anyway, I tried out a GSH Praline (I think) PT, and it was great. It's like the same size as a Work except shorter, which means you can probably dump more stuff in it than a City. The SA helped me dig out a Work and City to compare the three bags' sizes.

There was this super squarish looking one too, the Office, with short top handles and it's quite big. Quite nice to carry/hug (think sofa cushion) especially since they stuffed it with plastic bags to fill out the shape. Great for long bus/MRT rides? But it's just weird. As though you're carrying a cushion...

As for the iPhone pouch, I don't really like pouches, 'cos it's quite a hassle to slip your phone out and answer it if you're already carrying so much stuff and only have one hand available. The bit that tickles me is the LIZARD print on LAMBSKIN. I quite like my current leather case, where you can just flip it open, so I shall pass.

mawpowwow · Nov 2nd, 2009, 12:01 AM

Since there's so many votes for Canard GSH, then I will go for it.. Hehe..

I can't wait for Feb to come...

ieweuyhs · Nov 2nd, 2009, 12:12 AM

Great choice! I'm sure you'll love it...

romanticomedy · Nov 2nd, 2009, 02:20 AM

Thanks ieweuyhs for convincing me out of the iphone pouch! haha I really need something to protect my phone though, its in a really bad shape I've been dropping my phone so often recently! I wouldn't want to carry a bag which would look like a cushion

but thanks for the heads up I shall check them out when I have the time... Does anyone have any idea if Hilton carries the SLGs? Like the cuff bracelet/pencil??

I'm sure you'll love the canard GSH too mawpowwow! Dark blue with GSH =

I can't wait for Feb to come too!

pixielogue · Nov 2nd, 2009, 02:54 AM

mawpowwow - we can be bal bag twins if I decide to get canard GSH day too.

dannkat · Nov 2nd, 2009, 10:00 PM

romanticomedy - I used to have a Black GSH PT and, while I LOVE the way it looks, it was just too bulky and heavy for me to carry over a period of time. I much prefer the RH PT which I can lug anywhere. I also had a GH Day, GH City and GH Hobo - and I didn't feel the weight of those. Somehow, the PT just felt heavy. Mind you, it didn't feel heavy when I tried it on at the store, but it started to feel heavy after I had to carry it around for a bit.

And, Hilton does carry the SLGs, but a lot of them are sold out already. I think they only have the Pencil in Pommier left.

romanticomedy · Nov 3rd, 2009, 12:44 AM

Thanks Mich! I will go check it out maybe next month

try everything I possibly can! I refuse to step into the store that sells Bals in Melb! Horrible... Your new avatar is soooo cute!! all your SLGs popping out of your city! Love your MiniMini, CP and Pencil! I cannot wait for my MiniMini to arrive from Erica!

Thank you dannkat!! I'm loving him more and more! Glad your DS's exams are over, you can take a break now!

MichK · Nov 3rd, 2009, 01:08 AM

^^ Heh.. they're popping out of my First!

romanticomedy · Nov 3rd, 2009, 01:29 AM
