Default Ruby is here! Photo: 08 Ruby RH City from BalNY

What a BEAUTIFUL red! I've been waiting for a 'true' red for a while now. It looks like nice leather, but it's so hard to tell from a photo. I sure hope so because Ms. Ruby is on her way to me! I don't have other red's to compare it too or I would include a comparison photo, I know reds are hard to describe. Here's the photo I recieved from Bill today at BalNY:

I would love to see a comparison to Rouge Theatre too. Rouge Theatre is the color i've been wanting, but it's hard to find one in 'like new' condition that is not $$$$! I think this will be close enough for me. Not too orange, too dark or too bright. Let just hope the photo is close to the IRL color!

^^ i agree! the pic of the ruby posted above seems to have very matte, smooth leather. the great thing is that the ruby looks super-saturated, which is great! all the RT pics i've seen seem to have more crinkly distressed, and sometimes shiny leather. both colors are gorgeous!!
