I think the yellow will look hot! It's a great color for summer and I'd imagine it would contrast nicely with black and charcoal come fall!

well I had ordered the yellow so i'll post pics when it comes. I was debating over the green but I have a green bulga in almost the exact shade ... but I do love it. they said I could exchange it if I don't love it.

I tried on the Yellow, Green, and Black Triggers at Saks last week, and the Yellow was my favorite! I already have a few black bags, so while the Black Trigger was nice, the Yellow had my eye! I was wearing a magenta colored shirt & jeans at the time, and the yellow went very nicely! HTH!

Kathryn, I have been mulling the green one for a long time. Can you post any pics of yours?

Also, I live in L.A. too- where did you get yours? I would love to see one in person so I could make up my mind.

Both the yellow and the green Triggers are gorgeous - you have good taste!

Since you're asking, I would definitely go for the yellow. The Trigger is the most covetable of all yellow bags I have seen this year. So if you don't have a yellow bag, I think you made a fabulous choice!

I don't mean to hijack your thread, but I was wondering if you ladies thought it would be too much to have TWO Yellow bags - I just bought a RM Nikki in Sunshine, but this SS has me thinking about getting a Trigger in Yellow. Would it be too much? The RM Nikki is my first "color" bag, so I'm worried that it'd be weird to have black and brown bags, a L.A.M.B. Cheetah-print Carlisle clutch, and then two yellow bags...

Neko, they are two different looks... A slouchy hobo and a studded, fringed cubed satchel. I love my Trigger... It's so organized and I think you'll love owning one. Acid yellow is a fun, edgy color too.

OP, did you ever receive your yellow Trigger? If so, please post pictures/modeling pictures!

Thanks Gimmethebag! Now I just gotta decide if I want a Trigger Medium or a Clyde? I'm liking the strap on the Clyde, but the zipper closure on the Trigger...decisions, decisions.
