Woot-Woot .. happened upon a GORGEOUS 2007 Rouille (Paprika) with that FAB-OOOH '07 Chevre leather!!
.. I love the Blackout Bags; the leather .. YUM (the 2018 version which is NOT grained!). Here is my 2018 Sky (Light) Blue Blackout City S ..
I was getting to the point where I thought I would never find this bag (since it was created in 2010)! However, I kept on hunting until .. one day, I found it .. and SNAGGED IT (at a great price - WOO-HOO)!!! I'm shocked that it's in SUPERB condition; honestly, it looks like it was NEVER used!!! Welcome .. the 2010 Anniversary Leopard City bag (in honor of the 10 years of the creation of the moto bag)! The 2nd photo is the tag that is inside these bags ..
Man oh man, have I been a bad girl as of late .. BUT, BUT, BUT .. when I see an oldie that is in such fantastic condition (only a few minor repairs needed) and they are of the glorious CHEVRE leather, and BEST ~ ~ the price is ridic, well .. you KNOW they must join the collective!!!
So, here we go .. first us (and yes, this is a 2nd one) .. a beloved 2004 Fall/Winter ANIS!!! Of all of Balenciaga's colors, this color rates in my top 5 for sure (okay, okay .. not including my beloved RED's in that list). Such a unique color, and the color saturation on these early bags .. well, it just can't be beat!

Next up .. another golden gem (not color-wise, but leather-wise FOR SURE)!!! The famous 2005 S/S ('A' tag) Black Chevre City!!!
Following .. and again, in my beloved 2005 leather year (and yes - another dupe, but LOOK AT THIS LEATHER) .. a 2005 F/W Burgundy (Bordeaux) City!
.. and lastly for this "haul", a super hard-to-find color .. and especially in this condition!!! Literally, the only thing that I need to do (and trust me, not a biggie at all) .. is re-glue the tassels .. OTHERWISE, this is a mega-Gem!!! The 2006 S/S Lilac City!
I have been trying to consolidate my Bal collection but still have and love the Anis! It is actually a versatile color.
Of all the items that I have had in my collection at one time or the other, this baby is the MOST RARE of them all. Likely a 2003 (City Prototype?) .. Pewter Hardware, Olive Color .. but, but, but .. DEERSKIN LEATHER that is absolutely TO-DIE-FOR!!!!!! Rare as hen's teeth, this one!!
Like the very rare Village bag, it has a suede interior and the Bal leather tag only ..

One of my favorite colors in the famed 2007 collection (remember - this is my FAVORITE year for the beloved Chevre leather) .. a 2007 F/W Mastic (Oatmeal) City
