yes the prune heloise is one of my HG that i had given up on after seeing one go for a hell of a lot on ebay!
i LOVE the saskia that i have but would love a heloise more i think! im swaying towards getting the heloise but im banned lol!
bans never last! its the large heloise, i have a black small on waiting for me at the post office so it would be kind of nice to have both sizes!

i think maybe replacing my saskia with another colour they do some beautiful colours in the saskia!

Go for it, BMB. There are very different purses even though they are both prune.

I have a betty question. I am wondering I know there were small, medium and large sizes of the normal satchel style. Was the small size re-released in a slightly bigger and slightly altered shape? Or am I remember this incorrectly?

As someone who has NO purple bags, I agree with Sian! I've never wanted a purple bag so bad! I hope you're able to go for the prune heloise Sheree


I'm not very familiar with the betty DRR - still need to add one to my collection! So can't help you with your question sorry.

tsuarsawan - the silverado has been discontinued for a few years now - you can find them still for sale on ebay, bonanzle, and some other online consignment stores like annsfabulousfinds etc.

before purchasing it is always recommened to get advice from the experts in the "authenticate this chloe" thread.

There are still plenty of silverados floating around - you should be able to find one without too much difficulty.

Thanks Jaime,
I love the silverado too, only thing holding me back is the fact that it is pre owned. I must say the bag looks almost new. I am not a big fan of the new Chloe range. The only one I like is the north/south range and the paraty. Perhaps I should start looking at a paddington... What do u ladies suggest? I am so confused......

Thanks Jamie, as much as I love the silverado, I only want a new one...
It is ooh so lovely though!!!!

hi daisyrockrosie,
thanks for the information. I thought they weren't making the silverado anymore. Ooooh what a shame. It is a gorgeous looking bag.
I will not purchase a pre owned bag. I am steering towards a brand spanking new one. lol

The paraty & the North/South bag are really stylish. Do u think they will ever make the silverado range once more?

^^ You can still find a good Silverado pre-owned - in fact some haven't been used which come up for sale on EBay/Bonanzle.

I think its important that you choose a bag which you are comfortable with - and which will last you - and you will want to use on a daily basis.

Don't rush - and check out some of the girls Reveal Threads - see the bags - check the Reference Library - and then make a choice - but make sure its the right choice for you - and not what you feel might be 'in' at that point in time.

thanks Lescoy. I agree with u. I need to be comfortable with the bag I choose to buy. I am hopelessly in love with the silverado style. If I can find one brand new I would go for it. Does bonanzle ship oversea's? Also are all items authentic? Should I take same procedure as if I was purchasing from e bay? Get advice from purse forum? I have been trying some North/south bay bags down under, it does look good on me. I have not had the oppertunity to try on a silverado though. I just love the look....
Hard to come by a silverado unless I go to a second hand store that sells pre owned bags. Thanks once again Lescoy.

tsuarawan - Bonanzle is exactly the same as EBay in that it is an auction type site. Shipment to countries will be dependent upon individual sellers - but many do ship worldwide.

With any bag - its advised to run it by the Authenticate This Thread -

There are also some Consignment stores which have Chloe - and its always worth looking into those too.

Constylement did have a Silverado - but its sold now.

Also - Ann's Fabulous Finds -
