have you seen the dark forest green Rive Gauche?

Cosmopolitan · Jul 17th, 2007, 01:31 PM

This color Rive Gauche came out last fall, when the style was first launched, and I always regretted not buying one. Green is my favorite color!

I suspect that there may be a few left around on sales racks, so please let me know if you see one! TIA

Thanks kimair!

Do you happen to recall what kind of shape the bag was in: scruffs, scratches, loose threads? I'm always nervous about ordering a bag that's been sitting around a store for a year.

i only glanced at it, but it looked to be in pretty good shape...
they keep the bags at the ysl store here on shelves, and there's usually only 1-2 on a shelf...

Lucky you! I saw one on BlueFly long ago too, but not lately. How do you like it?

putting aside the poor BlueFly presentation (stuffed into a giant ziploc bag), i thought the color was very pretty (and i love the RG style), but in the end, i couldn't really work the green into my wardrobe. i've come to realize that i need to distinguish between colors i like to look at (like blue and purple) and colors i like to actually wear. so i returned it because heaven knows i don't need bags cluttering up my closet just because i think they're pretty. don't give up hope seeing it again on bluefly (though be prepared for it to be a return). good luck!

i found one on sale at ysl in nyc early june. it was just under $1000! i am so in love with it. i usually stick with more traditional colors but i am glad i got this one, the gold hardware really stands out on the forest green leather. :)
