Wow, the burgundy tote does look like the interior of the black reissues. Here are my pics of my 06 bordeaux reissue. My reissue is pretty dark, and from the pics the color is really close to the new bordeaux tote.

Thanks Lainey! I should have my navy blue on Wed! I'm excited, but wondering if I should have waited for the ecru.

Navy blue is a purpley-blue from what my SA described to me. Can't wait to see yours, Gators!

purseinsanity~ How would you describe the ecru?
The ecru is like the color of the cream that floats to the top when churning butter. LOL. That's the perfect description. I'm sure you're wondering WTF I know what freshly churned butter looks like! That's another story. Seriously though...that's exactly what it looks like. Creamy with a pale pale hint of yellow.

thanks for the pictures gators your 06 bordeaux is sooooooooooooooo gorgeous

i must say yours doesn't really look like the interior of the black reissues to me - maybe because the distressing gives it a totally different character!

at any rate, it is beautiful!!

Thanks. Does anyone know if Saks and/or NM are getting the 227 ecru reissue?

NM had 225 size for sure, not sure if they are getting other sizes. No clue if Saks is getting Ecru.

I got mine at 57th Street. So the boutiques are definitly carrying it.
