anyone seen an oval? anywhere?

[kimair]

i am on a worldwide quest for an oval...
i am open to any color, except a brown, but at this point, i'm not picky...
i've called a few places and no one seems to know what the oval is...
so i thought i'd ask here...
thanks everyone!

There was a thread on the oval clutch a few weeks ago...
http://forum.purseblog.com/balenciaga/oval-or-pochette-224052.html
Someone saw one at Barneys in Beverly Hills & another was
found at BalNY ... I'd call BalNY & maybe a SA at Barneys could
do a search of their stores for you.

thanks pinkie...
i'm going to call barneys in new york (since they don't sell bal bags at the barneys here) and see if they can do a search...

just wondering if anyone has seen one at neiman's or saks?
i know neiman's in sf had them in the past...

I saw a white oval clutch at Barney's in NYC when I was there last Friday looking at bbags. It's in one of the display cases with the balenciaga wallets on the bottom row. Hope that helps.

That Donna saw one at Barneys makes me think the search may come up with more than one... another thought is to ask a nice SA at Newman's to do a search of their store for you. I did know a really helpful lady at Newman's in SF but she is not in their Balenciaga section anymore. That SF. CA. has a large B'bag section, supposed to have the largest stock of all NM. If you call them, 415-362-3900, the extension I use is 2162... the SA I used to have was Egan who is now in a different dept, but you could ask for a B'bag specialist & they usually are very helpful. I last spoke with a man named Remo. Another idea is to call Sarah Hinkle at Nordstrom's Arden Fair in Sacramento, CA. 916.646.2400 ext. 1250 she's super about B'bags & maybe she can find one for you. I got my lavender beauty on ebay last year from a PF member & it's so great... almost the size of a City bag! I hope she doesn't mind me borrowing her photo's to show the proportions.

Nordstrom will not have it They didn't start carrying bbags until 2007 and the Oval is from 2006

NM I think just has the browns.

BalParis still have an Emerald
