This has got me confused for years! Did people start calling Dark Night, "Dark Knight" because Batman (as in the Dark Knight) was out at the time too???

Possible ! Or maybe Bal created the color after the movie was out and made a reference to it ? I am not sure
I don't remember if it is 11 or 12. It is MRGH. Not sure if they did the medium both years?
I think it will look great with black IMO. And, I don't usually wear much blue and black together. Unless your count jeans as blue....
Thank you Greengoddess8 !
Wait are you selling another green city? Or is the VP the one? Can't wait to see Vert d'eau when she arrives....and others
MM she is gorgeous! Enjoy in good health
I just found a Dark Knight RG town! City is my favorite style. But, I needed a crossbody. And, I have wanted a DK for a long while. I absolutely love the color! I think you will be very happy with your city. Post a picture when you get it!
Let me introduce you my first ever Balenciaga in DN with RH from 2011 ! I am so happy with it and love the color (it's great with black btw !) !! [emoji7][emoji3]
There is only one thing that disturbs me a little, it is its smell.. It's not smoke, but maybe the metal or something.. Does anyone know what I am talking about and has already experienced this ? If so and you have a solution, please let me know ! Other than this small detail, it is PER-FECT !
Your bag looks wonderful!
I did a quick search and the only thread on a metal smell didn't include any solutions to get rid of the smell:

I know there are numerous threads on getting rid of other smells, though, using baking soda, etc. You can find them doing a quick search. Good luck! Regardless, it is a good looking bag. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for doing a little search on that !
I looked into it and tried the baking soda tip (of course I didn't put any baking soda directly on it, instead I put some baking soda in a large box, put a towel on top, then laid the bag on the towel and left it in the box for a few hours) which didn't work that great, but I think the smell was accentuated by it being in the dustbag for a long time.
Now I am just letting in "breathe" out of its dustbag and the smell is slowly fainting, and I am also getting used to it so it doesn't bother me that much anymore.
Hmm haven't experienced it.
But hey nice bag! I wish I've a Dark Night
It is a really nice bag, very practical, it is super lightweight (so rare for designer bags) and the color is probably the best choice I made (I can always find a black one later).
I have to share: just bought a gorgeous '06 Emerald City on ebay from GB http://www.ebay.com/itm/400929800841?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
The leather looks amazing, very distressed and glossy, just as I like it! I hope it is silky as well. Can't wait to receive it. Always wanted to have this color.

I was eyeing that earlier today. Glad it went to someone on TPF. Congrats and can't wait for your pics!
Well, normally I pass on the Cities, I am a devoted Day bag fan and also like the Firsts, Hips, Handle Clutches, etc for weekends. But this one...I just could not resist! I have several older chevre bags with this kind of crackly/glossy leather and they are all super silky, so I am hoping that this one will be as well. It will probably just sit in my closet and I will take it out occasionally to admire, lol! I will post pictures once it arrives.
There is nothing wrong with owning a museum piece.
I have a few bags that I don't use much. But I still think they are worth it for all the times I took them out to admire and for the joy they bring me.I have to confess that I've also ordered an Outremer RGGH Town from Erica. That blue is so beautiful IMO. I've sold my wallet that I've been using since 2011, and I missed seeing it every day so much that I had to have another Outremer in my life (in addition to PT that I also have, lol!). And I love the cute Town shape!

So true!!!!
