I've been using mine for around a month now, so I wouldn't say it's "broken in" yet, but I can still post pics if you like

I've had mine for about three months now, I think.

There was a very slight, if even mentionable, change in the color. Nothing ugly though!

The most change was the handles and the bottom (treated with LMB FHO), but still - the change is little. I'm surprised at how well this bag wears.

You can see the "most wear" in the pic where you can see the bottom corner of the bag. Also, please note the back of the bag where it will most likely rub against your jeans, belt, or whatever. I once wore a bright pink shirt and some color transferred onto the Vert Deau. Nothing a baby wipe couldn't handle!

I went crazy for this color, and the leather on most bags I've seen is great! This is a Brief I haven't even used yet, but its coming out for summer. It needs no breaking in, and I hope the pics show that. It's like a buttery, '04 bag. Love this color.

I really love this color!!! But I'm really paranoid about it yellowing. When I finally have the funds for a green bbag, I might get a darker green. It's such a hard decision especially after seeing all these beautiful pictures.

I'm afraid too... Doesn't seem like anyone has used their bags much yet... I'm not sure I'll dare it, though I really really adore the color - and the leather is

I've seen the yellowed pale rose bags, but I'm not so sure that would happen with vert d'eau. Mine is new, true, but I have pale bags, like pistachio, '04 turquoise and seafoam that haven't yellowed at all. Vert d'eau has more color than pale rose anyway. So I just haven't heard that the same problem has occurred.

Count me in!

Mine isn't "broken in" yet because I just got this new baby this week. And she is my very first Bbag. I'm so proud of her. lol
