I payed a brief visit to SF BV yesterday...oohed and aahed over some of the new colors - Oceano, Carmino, Blonde (or Camel?).

I have coveted a Trifoglio accessory ever since seeing the color...soo this little handsome one came home with me!

And it was on sale, how could I resist?

Looks great with my Noce Veneta and I love the chain detail.

Oooh! That's even prettier than it is on the web site! I was looking at this one, too. Wish I still lived near a BV to see all the loot in person first.

What kind of blue is Oceano? I love watery blue-greens and have high hopes for this one!

I bought the Parma version of this--it's so nice.

Oceano must be the un-named blue from last spring's trunk show; it's a medium blue, but all I saw was a small sample of woven leather, no actual purses in the color, so it might look very different made up into a bag.

bete_noire - It's a very hard blue to describe, but as boxermom says, it's a med-blue. I only saw it in a zip card wallet (like mine, but no chain) and I think it's a pretty color for accessories, but not in my taste in a handbag.

bete_noire · Jun 15th, 2007, 09:20 PM

Thanks for the info. Can't wait to see it!

bprimuslevy · Jun 15th, 2007, 09:51 PM

Is Carmino a bright or subdued red?

ms piggy · Jun 15th, 2007, 10:59 PM

my, what a pretty little purse. The chain detail gives it a lil edge. Agree with what gingerale said, this colour has the retro vibe. Love it!

doubtfulguest · Jun 15th, 2007, 11:57 PM

yay for chain detail zip wallets!

myindulgence · Jun 16th, 2007, 12:58 AM

bprimuslevy - Carmino is a true red...like a crayola red - not too much blue in it or too much orange to make it tomato-ish.

bag.lover · Jun 16th, 2007, 01:51 AM

Cute! Congrats Myindulgence. =)

C_24 · Jun 16th, 2007, 02:34 AM

myindulgence - don't you love the green? awesome color! question: what are you going to carry in it? i have the stitch one, and i'm still tying to figure out what to put in it... my cards don't fit in it too well.

Raz · Jun 16th, 2007, 04:42 AM

I have to say, this annoys me. If I'm paying $200 for a card wallet, I want it to hold cards. I was frustrated when I went to put my business cards in it and I had to work them in there. I ended up putting nothing in the middle slot because I couldn't get it to easily close. I still think mine (and myindulgence's!) is adorable, but please BV, make it a tad bigger next time!
