Building our Style/Color Database

[chinkee21]

Great idea! We should've thought of this sooner!

[Geminiz06]

thanks for all your hard work rm crushes...I know this thread will be very helpful

[RMcrushes]

Liliac: Another great idea! I think submission of photos should include single bags, otherwise we will have to edit the photos to indicate what bags is what. :)

If anyone wants to email me their pictures, please do so at rmcrushes (at) gmail (dot) com

Alright ladies, keep this going! I'd love to get the Nikki rolling as I start compiling for the next bag. What do you think should be next? The Matinee or MA?

[lilac0485]

matinee might be easier to do first, since it is a newer style

[lilac0485]

Oooh and after we have a database of single bags we can start doing color group shots or any other grouping that makes sense. Like the popsicle colors from spring 08 (Gung's tangerine, grape, and cherry ie tangerine, violet, and ruby shot of the bags.)

So if anyone has multiple purples, take a group shot of all the purples. And so on for all the colors. This would help for comparison especially as RM comes out with so many new colors.

Whoops! Sorry! That's what I was trying to do, have the 2 purples and the Dusty & elephant for comparison. My iPhone pictures are kind of crummy too-- I'll try to do some better ones later.

[RMcrushes]

Jenny - No problem. I actually photoshopped some text to indicate what is what in your photos. I just don't want to have to do that for every picture because I stink at photoshop. :)

the purples pic is very helpful because you have lilac, lavender, and violet there. thanks.

Wow! Great idea! No wonder you were so fast with the pic of that black stamp nikki the other day.

I'll e-mail you pics of the glazed espresso nikki and the midnight nikki to add to the collection.

RMcrushes, just wanted to thank you for putting this together -- it is very helpful!!!!

[Tracy]

wow, awesome work! this will be a great resource.

[seven7]

RMcrushes, this is a GREAT resource! Thank you so much!

Maybe we could add to every color what hardware (or what color hardware) the bag came with... For many it's obvious I know, but there are some pics, even professional ones where gold deceptively looks like silver...

[deeliciouz]

thank you, thank you, thank you for putting so much time and effort into this RMcrushes!

I think that you and lilac should be the coordinators of this wonderful idea! Both have great ideas and I'm sure it is a TON of work for one person to take on, kwim?

[Jenny Cadine]

There's 2 yellow Nikkis-- the studded one in the Vanessa Minillo pic and the new hardware, darker yellow that is the same leather as the yellow plan B.
