I've been wanting a Balenciaga first bag for over a year now - and I've been reading up here about leathers, years, colors etc....I've tried on several bag sizes, and the first is the size that definitely appeals to me.
None of the first bags that are currently available at my Bal counter appeal to me (black, anthracite), so I've been looking at older bags.
From what I've read here, 2005 leathers are supposed to be amazing - and the caramel color seems like a gorgeous neutral that would go with most of my outfits...
So - I'd like your expert opinions please - is this a nice, well-kept bag - or do you see any potential flaws with it? (are the handles too dark? Will it need a lot of conditioning?) Pretty please help I've been offered this bag and I don't have much time to make my decision!
