I have a Pumpkin First...and love it. Like a lot of people have said...this color goes really well with jeans. I usually wear it with jeans and a white top. It's my favorite Bal orange. I've been on the fence about getting Mandarin because it might be too bright for me. I think Pumpkin is perfect and not too bright IMO. I hope you go for it!
 
Here are a few images I found on my computer. The bag is actually a little lighter IRL. I think the picture that was posted earlier really captured it well, but here are a few more to give you an idea...

I personally love 2004 Pumpkin, mainly due to the sharp pewter hw against the bright orange color. I can't wear it, but I do love it. I am totally jealous of those who can pull it off, but time and time again I make mistakes a buy a bag that is too bright for me. And time and time again I am reminded of why I can't buy such bags! As pretty as they are.
 
Balenciaga colors are some of the hardest to capture in pictures, they come out different depending on the light. I think '04 Pumpkin doesn't change too much over time, it just develops beautiful natural color variation that shows off the top-grain chevre leather well. The color is that perfect orange like Hermes uses that you can mix with most anything and it looks great. The antiqued silver tone of the pewter hardware is cool and contrasts with the warm orange leather.

I hope this helps, here's the '04 Pumpkin City vs. '05 Turquoise City outside & on me, about 5'3" and size medium/large:

Note: Santa Fe sunlight is super strong up here at 7000ft above sea level. I hope the tree shade shows the color better ;o)
 
Exactly rere !! :nuts:

Wooow thank you so much Corey to show us a picture outside. It's funny because I thought about Hermes too (I was like : "orange might be bright but it's very chic at the same time when you think about the Hermes orange for example"). I think it's the first time I see a Pumpkin city for sale, and I love those very rare gems with PH ! They are so special :)
