Okay ... to make up for the fact that I quite literally tore out of my office at work to get to the Barneys NY at the Chestnut Hill Mall (after I heard they had the Rouge Vif) ... I figured that I needed to post the fact that they still have a fair amount of bags left (sorry ... they aren't on sale, but I know that some of you are still looking for these colors/styles). So, here it goes and advance pardon as my memory is a little faulty (due to my extreme excitement after scoring the Rouge Vif bag!!).
2006 Pre-Spring & Spring
Good luck!!!!
2006 Pre-Spring & Spring
- Lilac - Work, City, Box, Twiggy & First
- Cornflower Blue - Work, First and {I think} City
- Rouille - Weekender, Work, City and First
- White - Courier
- Black - Courier & Purse
- Grey (Gris Fonce) - Work and City
- Ink - First
- Truffe - Weekender, Work, Mini Compagnon & Mini Coin Purse
- Grenat - Work and First (if I remember correctly, there was another style available, but for the life of me - I can't remember!)
- Greige - Work
- Rouge Vif - First (oops ... sold ... TO ME!!)
- Truffe - I had high hopes for this color (based on the LuisaviaRoma PDF). Unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations ... I thought it had too much of a olive undertone and the leather was so smooth that IMHO ... it looked fake. This was true for all the Truffe bags.
- Grenat - beautiful color!!!!! Looked very much like the 2005 Pre-Fall Bordeaux but a little more brown. Leather was better than the Truffe, but not as crinkly/distressed as I usually like it. I would highly recommend this color though.
- Greige - a very light Grey; frankly, I didn't like it. It reminded me of the Silver (Argent) color ... more on the light/silver side whereas the 2006 Spring Grey (Gris Fonce) is darker and is more reminiscent of the Pewter color (I've been mulling over this one).
- Rouge Vif - absolutely STUNNING!!! In my opinion, this color is bound to be one of the classics like the Mustard, Anis, Eggplant, etc.
Good luck!!!!
