I would go black SGH too. I do like the officier colour but not in GCH. I would like maldives but not in a big bag, maybe a clutch. Or a smaller bag

Thanks for the info Leslie, I called David but he was off today but I got some info from Chieme (?) there and now there's just too many choices to choose from!!! I think I need more money...

^^^^^LOL, that is the problem, lilmissb, so many Bals, so little money!
cpyrroyo, I also am not a fan of GCH, BUT it is unusual and if you like it, go for it!
I am just partial to black and SGH.....I too love Maldives, but maybe in a First, and I would be worried about yellowing or getting dirty.

^LOL! We all need a money tree don't we?

Does Maldives really yellow? I read the Ice Blue yellows so I guess Maldives is along the same line.

yes, Maldives definitely is dirt prone that's why I'm afraid to go for it,though it's a nice color. My first choice is the black city as well because it could go with anything that you want to wear and very low maintenance. I still have time to think it over though. Thanks for the response girls! And one more thing, is evergreen giant work a hard to find color?

Yes. Not only the blue ones but I think all the light color bbags turn yellow as well.

Even with Apple Guard protection? Sheesh! No light colours for this chicky then!!

I don't know about the evergreen, sorry. Not a big fan of it as I don't really like green.

Thank goodness I like black and anthras and blues.

I have the Evergreen Work in GSH. I'm thinking twice of letting it go, because I think it's a hard to find color. I don't see it that often in stores.

^I haven't seen it much if that helps. There are a few boutiques that still have some but generally I don't think it's in stock any more. I haven't seen any on the bay either.

Please help me decide!tia
Black SGH is my vote!!! You'll be able to use it without constantly worrying that you're going to damage/ dirty the corners, or have it fade.

^^Here! Here! Good tune, Conni. That is exactly why I also go for the darker Bals. Although I have been tempted with the lighter colors lately for the summer.

cparroyo777 - I LOVE the combo of Maldives and SGH, but I say go for the darker bals. I have the Maldives SGH coin purse (did not have enough courage to go for it in an actual Bbag), and have Apple Guarded it to death because I do not want it to get dirty. Either the Black SGH or Officier GCH (I think I am one of the few who think like you about the GCH) I think would make good choices. Let us know what you decide, and please post pics!

For anyone wanting Apple Guard www.leatherstuff.com is having 20% off. Enter promo code DAD. Not sure if it's the right place to post but just thought I should let you know if you didn't!
