I'm finally joining the club today with this 'new to me' Lindy 30 in Rouge Casaque PHW!
This one was a big purchase for me, but after hunting for months on the pre-loved market for the perfect shade of red, I simply couldn't turn this one down. Unfortunately it arrived on the back of a 3 month vacation, so financially it wasn't a great time, but regardless, I'm absolutely thrilled. I have to admit, I was quite tentative after not being 100% confident in the seller's communication, and the photos in the listing were a bit ho-hum, so it definitely felt like a bit of a gamble.
Opening it when it arrived, I'd prepared myself for mild disappointment, expecting at least that it would arrive with general wear and tear and worn corners. I couldn't have been more wrong. Despite being from 2009, there's not a single sign of wear on it, in fact it looks like its arrived directly from the store. I'm totally shocked, its beyond any of my expectations. I feel so lucky.
The only thing I'm not 100% certain about is the colour, it looks more like Rouge Vif to me, or at least a Rouge with darker tones/blue in it than Casaque. Does anyone know the best way to find out the actual colour with any real certainty?
Also, looking for Twilly suggestions! I've found one on Fashionphile that I think looks like a nice match, but any other suggestions would be so much appreciated! I'd love to see some colour combinations I haven't thought of
