Documenting Balenciaga Colors

[addictedtopurses]

The more I see the rouille color, the more it grows on me. Has anyone seen it in the first style?

My Cornflower Blue Twiggy is so comfy to use! I also have the black First bag that is a classic.

OMG Style101, I thought I died and saw your collection in bag-heaven. SOOOOOO many pretty colors!!!! And a lot of them are sooo close together too like the reds and especially the blues, how do you choose which one to use in the morning?

Mind you ... I saved the best for last (one of my personal favorites ... in addition to the Apple Green); the 2004 Anis City!

Hope you enjoyed the show!

BTW ... check out the leather on these babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those of you who don't have any of the older bags, I think that you will see how far superior the leather is on the older bags. When I spoke to Balenciaga-NYC the other day, I complained to them about the 'current' leather. They DID NOT mention anything about it being replaced with the 'old' stock ...

Yes, this is the reason I keep on coming back to my older babies.... , and the colors were soo beautiful (in my opinion) too!

...and here's another contribution from me.

My 'newest' addition - a 2003 Cocoa/Caramel suede messenger with silver hardware!

MiMi I would sell my soul for that Rose City! If I could find one in a first size, I'd be on cloud 9. No words can express how beautiful that color is Great collection!!!

Very lovely everyone, and great thread - I love seeing the color and style variation! Here is my Balenciaga family (a few are missing, but I'll post when some new photo's are taken! )

CeeJay thanks for all those pictures **drooling**! Wow, those colors AND leather are just perfect. If I could get my hands on a rose city or seafoam first...

Love this thread!

Awwww twinklette, thank you! The leather on the rose is breathtaking - it's very very very soft, really amazing! My boyfriend actually gave it to me for a Valentine's gift (although, I have to admit - I of course picked it out hehe)

I hope you find your own baby soon!

 

[percephonie]

Aww your boyfriend is an angel Mimi!

 

[ranskimmie]

Girls,
I must say all of your Bbags are breathtaking! Being a Bbag addict myself, the pics. are KILLING ME!!!!

 

[Twinklette]

Can I have your boyfriend lol? I had a rose first a long time ago, not realizing how rare it was, and SOLD IT. Now I could kick myself. I can't find one anywhere again. If you ever hear of one, I'd so appreciate it if you'd let me know?!? WHERE did you find a rose city if you don't mind my asking?
