... just double check the tag. :lol:

(I say that as a joke to my lunacy/having gotten caught up in not questioning why 2006 would have a colour code and knowing that you are a true OG Bal gal!)


Oh, no, I have to check the tags, for sure. I had an orange brûlée weekender and sent it to LMB to restore color into rouille because I was convinced it was rouille. Did I compare tags with my orange brûlée city ? Nope 🙂‍↔️


Sure I am a forum OG LOL but I can’t figure out anything without lists posted in reference library…see, I just bought a Velo from TRR , of course no mention of year and any code, so I confidently analyzed and with all my knowledge of zipper colors and shades, I was totally confident I was getting a pivoine (I have one super pretty pivoine tall travel tote) …… nope it is actually a vibrant strong pink called cyclamen 😂😂😂 how much further can you be than from light gentle pink pivoine to aggressive and in-your-face cyclamen? Luckily it is so gorgeous and so well cared for that I can’t wait to blind people with pink all spring long.

As for bordeaux and grenat, every time go to my closet and take out twiggy (grenat) and work (Bordeaux) I never know which is which. I have to look up my long gone grenat courier, a post about returning it , to see which one of those two is grenat LOL.

It is high time to label my bags, take photos and post a new thread in collections forum, so that I can actually see my own bags on display and stop wanting doubles.
 
Navy Riva.

Did they make a version of the Riva that doesn't have the long tassels? Noticed the zips on this one have leather pulls instead.

EDIT: I found an old post on Fashionphile where it looks like they did!
