Default Can anyone help ID this color?

For my sister, in her relentless persuit of a Bbag. Hopefully I can get her to join here soon so I don't have to be her go-between! She says all us "Balenciagians" intimidate her

Thanks!

looks like anis or origan to me, but I can only see pics of the tags, can you post pics of the bag itself?

I think I know which bag you're talking about, and in that case - in my opinion it is the '05 caramel.

Thanks guys... I have sent my sister to ateliernaff and a few other places so she can do her research. Mimz I'm not sure where this bag is-- she just said it was online and she liked the color and wants one like it. Knowing her it's probably Ioffer for $40 But I love her and want her to be happy, so thanks all for humoring us both!

If Mimz thinks she knows which bag it is and says it's the '05 caramel, then I don't think it's fake....cuz if it was, she would say so...

oh, I mean - I wasn't commenting on authenticity, because I don't know if it is really the bag I'm thinking of! it just looks like the '05 caramel to me. That's all.
