I may have to change my bec charm me to this.
It's not subtle like the black crash because it is more of a metallic -- I think it's less "blingy" than the purple crash but not quite as subtle as the choco crash. The green color has a lot of blue in it - like a dark spruce green. It goes with a ton -- I've been carrying it for a week now and it's gone with everything I've worn. It was a little stiff when it was brand new, but it's getting much softer now which for this shape is good.

I think the green crash is like any crash in that at first it is blingy, but then as it softens, it calms down. I can imagine this green crash as a great new neutral that can go with everything.

What a gorgeous bag! I'm not surprised that it's getting a lot of attention.

Green crash leather! Lovely! It looks especially great in the SM style...I've been wanting a SM since I first laid eyes on it and your pics are only convincing me that much more!

What a beautiful color. I love crash leathers never thought I would but I agree with TG they start off blingy and then improve with age.
