Marine/Blueberry comparision and question

[wantabalenciaga]

My two blues are so similar I think! The WE is Marine and the First is Blueberry. Is there any chance the Marine WE is actually Blueberry? I bought it used with no Balenciaga tags but it was purchased in 2008 from Neiman Marcus. Would NM still have any Blueberrys in the back two years later?

check the plate into the first. I have the Blueberry city and it has a W for 2006. HTH

I think it's definitely possible. I just found out yesterday, that one of the Nordstrom stores had 2006 bags......still in stock!

I know the Blueberry is a Blueberry....I just wonder if the Marine is too! It's soooo similar and I always thought Marine looked darker in pictures. Plus the leather does not seem like Agneau, it's just like my other Chevre bags. But it was bought in 2008 so I always just assumed it was Marine.

can you post side by side pictures? marine 07 is very different from blueberry, you should easily notice the difference i love blueberry to pieces

Ok, I will go do that now....what about Marine 08? Is that lighter than 07 and more like Blueberry?

I think Marine 08 is more like Blueberry but as I've never had both together, I can't be sure.

Here they are together. The Blueberry actually looks a bit darker than the WE in these pictures.

I'd say your WE is 08 Marine

Thanks Livia1, that's what I had always assumed ....very similar to Blueberry however, especially outside in sunlight!

Your WE also looks very much like Officier in this pic. And Officier sometimes looks like Blueberry
They are certainly both very, very beautiful!
