The Noix bag I saw in the store was lighter than the pic above, and I did spot some pinkish tones which I love most about the bag. I think Noix look better with GSH or RH rather than GCH. Anyway, it's a great color. Thanks for all the photo sharing.

As to the leather, it's really soft and nicely distressed, sort of 2007ish. It's very good for an accessory, which can sometimes be a little iffy. It does have a little bit of trim on the "tongue" thingy on the back that is a tiny bit mismatched, but it doesn't bother me.

Has anyone posted a GGH noix bag? Now that I've seen the color in person, I can see how it could work really well, too. I love the way sweetlust's classic bag looks, because it seems to have a little more of the mauveish tone in it.

After seeing Tooomz's amazing GGH Noix work, I have to say this colors looks great with silver, Rh and gold. But I still don't think it's attractive with giant cover hardware though.

Yay! I got my Noix RH City last week! Still haven't got a chance to bring her out yet, but she's lovely.

Now, I can say that among all the photo here in TPF, yours' the one that look closest to the real color! :)

It's really lovely like a heavily milky ovaltine with light pink undertone. It does has a flash of pink under some lighting too. :)

Finally got my Noix and absolutely no regrets! It is just like what I was hoping for. Like Vink said, it's like a milky ovaltine. These pics are close to real life. And surprisingly, the leather is soft and thickish. After about 3 days of just carrying from home to office and back, it's already drapey.
