^^Reds are TOTALLY addicting. I have a rouge theatre, rouge vif, ruby, grenat and bordeaux - I can still justify all of them too even tho they're all RED! LOL

Rouge Theatre City was my first Bbag. I adore red bags, but tend to wear them only when I think I look "good enough," to attract attention! So, what happens is my red bags spend their lives in their dust bags, and are in the most pristine condition of any I own!

^^Red is good with neutrals, also navy blue goes so well with my Red bags. Not quite as versatile as my black bags - but I do love RED!

Ok, I know the leather difference between 07 & 08 leathers, I'm really looking for the color difference between these two..

I've gone through the red family reference library and it's really hard to tell.. is tomato more of an orange red compared to ruby?

If anyone has both, would love to see them next to each other. There was a post with someone with a tomato wallet and a ruby courier, but the color is kind of hard to really tell on a wallet, and they weren't right next to each other, so I couldn't decide..

Thanks for your help!!!

I have a tomato coin purse and to me it's a really bright true red, IMO it isn't really orangey(don't know if people will argue with me on that or not, the leather is also the best out of anything I own really smooshy and thick

Tomato is bright red, ruby is a deeper shade of red kinda like xxx

Thanks for your opinion, but please NEVER include a link to a fake Balenciaga site for reference!!! EEEK!!

I have seen authentic pics on the reference thread, I am looking for opinions from people who own them to compare, thanks!

Thanks for moving my post and combing Jira.

However, this was these were the pics I was referencing where the tomato example was a wallet, and I can't really tell enough of the color from a wallet to compare.

So if anyone has an 07 tomato bag, and an 08 ruby bag, would love to see them together, thanks so much!!

Ruby 100% even with the agneau. The color is just perfect for a red. Tomato is too orange for me. jmo

That's what I was thinking too from the pics I saw in the reference thread. It's just so hard when every bag is in different lighting, etc.

Thanks for the feedback!!

I got two tomatos...one of them is more of a true red and the other piece has an orange tint in it...so i guess if you are looking for a true red, i will suggest you to get Ruby!

Thanks! Isn't it crazy that the same year and season color can vary to where it could almost be a different shade sometimes??
