Hi -

I am thinking about purchasing a '07 Natural City but want to know what the color looks like next to white. I know someone posted a comparison next to greige awhile back... I am hoping that Natural makes a nice, neutral bag that will look great this spring.

Any help anyone can give me is much appreciated!

Thanks!

Martha - I recently returned my natural city bag, just wasn't knocked out by the color. I decided to hold out for greige, which I (luckily - thanks again Siri! :heart:) found and should be here any day! The natural color does look good with white but there was just something 'off' about it to me. There is a greige purse on eBay right now (see post). Good luck!

I saw a natural bag the other day next to a gray bag (not sure which grey). For a minute, I thought they were the same color, just different dye lots. I think you have to think about your wardrobe a bit as far as what would work better. I didn't see the natural next to the white but the white is pretty true white, at least the ones that I saw.

Hey flipflop and Martha, I returned my natural city as well. I had to buy it sight unseen and when I got the bag I was underwhelmed by the color. I agree that greige is much prettier. White might be a better choice if you are looking for a spring bag this season.

I think there is a photo on another thread of new bags on the display shelf at BNY, and one is of natural and white together. ? I got a giant white brief, having intended to try natural, because my SA talked me out of it. He thought it was a sort of washed out greige and, knowing my preferences, thought I wouldn't like it. Still, if what you really want is a bag that is sort of close to white, light, but off-white, maybe natural is the way to go.

Is Cameron Diaz carrying a natural in this picture (or is it light green, I can't tell)? I quite like this color.

That looks like a natural w/gh. It does look gorgeous! Another PFer just got a natural part time w/gh and loves it! The pictures looks gorgeous! Maybe if you decide on natural the gh is the way to go?

Thanks to everyone! I do have dark hair and tan-ish skin (unfortunately, I can't afford to sit in the sun all-day...). I really like the color that Cameron has. I just bought a Burberry Trench coat (in tan) and am wondering if I should go a totally different direction and get a green that would really pop against the light colored jacket. Maybe I'll have to get both... YIKES!

The f/w white has more of an ivory cast than my white twiggy from s/s did. However it isn't like natural. Natural is much darker. Like a dark ivory that would match anything. Greige has gray tones in, although some are grayer than others and greige is also much darker than natural. Natural has sort of a pearly look to it, like Calciare only no pink. I have all 3 bags. I also have an '04 white with silver hardware and it's more ivory than the recent ones, but they are close. I am hoping they do a bright white this summer. I would never have sold my Twiggy had I know they were going to change the shade of white. I love them all but now I don't have a bright white Balenciaga. :crybaby:

Powder, I love the way you are able to discuss and point out the differences across colors and seasons. Your insight is so helpful! :yes:
