^^Oh yes, I can see it now ... "Boobie & Bobble Queen" - HA!!!

So, what I find odd here is that *Viki* got it at the London BAL boutique, yet .. I've been calling around the US Boutiques, and they think I'm nuts. Apparently, the Bal-US stores have cut back on the accessories; I'm BUMMED!!
 
Viki, each of the collections has its own colorways, so maybe the Riva line will still come in a nice caramel color that matches the sneak preview pics we've seen. Papier is another matter. I know the Riva bags exist in at least the "caramel" color, blue and red, for spring. I think I asked a US boutique, and they only ordered red and blue. I sort of left it at that. Maybe I should be happy that everything I was anticipating is turning out not to be available or isn't nice. whew.

thanx sweetie X

the bag I am obsessed with is the one in the pic I posted in the S/S 11 thread. I have longed for another Caramel & I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that colour :nuts: Bal London have ordered Red & Congac, however, when I saw all the new colours at the weekend ~ Mimosa, Ardoise, Grenadine etc look just the same in the papier totes but the Cognac is really, really dark :-(

Hmmmm - I could have sworn that the Riva line had a "tawny" Caramel color. Alas, I have to admit that once I saw the pic of the Red Riva, I kind of shut off my hearing! Might have to take a roadtrip this weekend for more intel.
 
no, no sweeties VR = Vieux Rose & rem it's only my opinion ~ you may love it. It's a vibrant salmon pink colour, not to my taste at all I'm afraid :-(. I've heard so much about a caramel colour but my London SA hadn't & I'm just wondering where it fits in ~ ie, is it a main collection colour for S/S or is it coming for F/W ? *Congac* is here now (in a papier tote) but it's def a dark brown.

*smacks forehead* I totally misread it sorry.
