A, I am all for you getting it!! I just wouldn't get it for myself because the color is not me at all! Doesn't mean it's not you!! Especially since it captured your fancy! I don't think you'll regret it, meow! You're gonna see it in real life and probably fall in love!

hey..and you already have a red jumbo..-__-. OP was debating between the two, lol

yeah, it's a bit tricky as i have to do intl order from NM in New York when am in Melb., so i can't seem to get to see it in person before i buy.....sighhhh... just to reserve the right to buy it as it would be more difficult and slow in time if i get it here i guessssss, huhhhhh....

Navy is pretty neutral, but beautiful nonetheless!
Imagine the pop girl is not taking this...now it scares me even more lol...
anyway.... 05 red caviar, 09 current caviar one, and 10c caviar one... can u please kindly lighten me up in the difference between these three shades.... I'm now tempted to get them...awww my bf said, why not taking both.. .i said yeah buying two at a time may kill me......

But hey last night i saw a man wearing kinda turquoise blue pants with white basic t shirt, and black leather jacket... wow... he looks stunning...and...hot! (while we all can guess that he could be gay... ) the color does stand out and make me think of our new blue...

nighteyes, nscwong, and pls5....both of ur reply sound very interesting and very useful to think about it!

and thank u to B185AC12 and starr_shenell...

Jade, we are in the same boat!!! are u getting it?
I have seen a few photos of the 09red and 10red, but they are not yet good enough for me to make decision as they mostly in dif lighting and some look a bit too dark... would u mind showing me pic of the 09 in day light to get the true to color or any light that will get the true to color for me pleaseeeeee....
However, am also afraid if 10 going to be much brighter or not i saw gst photo of new red, it's a bit too bright for me, but someone also comment that it's not that bright irl though, some also mention that it's not really big dif between 09 and 10 red... so am a little confused...

refer to this post... even the same bag in two photos look different.... so i can't seem to get a good idea of "if it's too bright for me... or much brighter than 09, now i also wonder which one between these two photos are more true to light (for new red one)...

10 c 81665 gst vs 81643 red

and also another big question is... blue, is it easy to use or get along with my other cloth? And how to wear blue and look nice? Do I need new clothes or what type of accessories or things i should put it together to make that blue bag be a part of my outfit (not jumping out from the whole scene).....

Of course you can wear your "new blue" bag because the ready-to-wear Spring clothes are in red or blue (blue and blue jeans color).

The blue color is also nice & pretty with some orange or coral but the Bleu Roi as we call it in France is very nice with blue jeans !

An there will be many pieces in red-white-blue for the 2nd Act (Summer 2010) as you can see it on the www.chanel.com.

darkchoc, I don't really know the differences between the reds...all I know is that 05 red is really sought after. As for the blues, hehe, maybe you need to see it in real life to get a feel for, and imagine what you could wear with it. It's definitely doable! I just have always loved teals and turquoises over electric/royal blue.

Oooo, OP, you should have taken a pic of the guy in turquoise pants! I'd love to see someone rock turquoise pants

Red is more versatile, but you'd better go for what your heart is calling

thx hun, it helps :) i kinda enjoy the red more and feel it's more attractive now... *(thinking that I am interested in cobalt blue, make me think of when i bought my amazing green shoes last year ... and it's about one year now, and i never worn it yet!!!) Cobalt blue bag can possibly be my next one at the painful cost.....
