Not sure if this warrants a new thread, but the white paddy colors have been driving me crazy!!

Since Chloe lables all her colors in french, here is what I found, via the handy-dandy online dictionary:

Sable = sand (EOL'd color, right?)
Craie = chalk (EOL'd color, right?)
Blanc = white (still availalbe for 06, yes?)
Creme = cream (new for 06- yes?)

Which leaves me with Ivory??

If any of you have these lovely colors, can you post examples??

I am jonesing for one and can't decide which of the whites is best.

Ivory '06 is the same as Blanc '06, I believe. It is a beautiful color!

...And the new creme fall 06 is more like creamy pale beige, I think it's the richest cream / white colour in paddingtons..? hopefully somebody posts a pic, it's lovely too :) And I'm dreaming of sable (05?) paddy <3

IT ROCKS!!

I think it's a much richer color than the new creme. I saw the creme at the NM and wasn't in love. Yours-- sigh-- is perfect.

Thanks for posting the pics

....I think this is quite a common thing with many paddington colours, they look so different in different lightnings! I have noticed the same thing with my taupe one and I've learned here chocolate has a lovely rasberry shade effect in certain lights - I love this thing in paddys! Also they colours of the clothes I wear make the bag's colour appear a bit different I wish somebody posts pictures of sable here, it's truly lovely shade

+sonja+ I love your bag!!! That has to be the nicest light colored paddy I have ever seen. I love the slight hint of pale pink! Beautiful!

+sonja+ - what a beautiful bag you have. I really love it. Do you have problems keeping it clean? That would be my only concern. I wanted a white/creme bag all summer and never got one.
