Finally the new(ish) colors have arrived here and so I'll share my .02 cents:
- Sienna: I saw a gorgeous Sienna SGH work and rh First. I never knew what the color looked like, cark caramel, reddish-brown, brick red, what... So now I've seen it, it's a deep reddish-brown, like cognac but slightly darker, very very luscious and saturated. Definitely redbrick-brown. Gorgeous. What I didn't like so much was the SGH, the tone of the bag was warm (almost glowing lol), so that was quite a contrast. I haven't seen it in GGH though.
- Ocean: I initally thought it was a washed-out mid-blue but I think it's much more vibrant. A true blue, it would look great with SGH.
- Plomb: I wasn't sure before whether it might be an (again) washed-out version of black but it's so not! It's a shiny, grey-blueish color. I was wearing a black suit and cream sweater and the black really set it off. Very chic, the black looked dull and flat in comparison (and I love black and have a black First, so I'm not saying this lightly lol). It was really smokin' with SGH.
I can't imagine that I'd like it with GGH because it's such a cool color.
- Violet: this was actually the reason that I went in the first place. It was sold already... I asked the SA to describe violet. She said it was almost like lilac, but darker and definitely a cool color
So I knew I would have liked a darker purple but probably not that, although the pics here on tPF were just 
. So I'm still on the fence but I think I have to face that I'm not a purple person.
Of course I got something too, it just "clicked" with me, not at all what I was expecting to get!! But sometimes you just...
But the daylight's gone so I'll post pics tomorrow.
Sorry no pics, the (really nice!) SA was focussing her attention on me (not that I complain). I still thought another's impression could perhaps help someone who couldn't buy in person.

at first sight! They had a first in RH and a day in SGH, and I agree with you, I was
