Jacyintge looks nice hoping it will have strong teal hints..am looking for a new tealy blue bag....was dissapointed in the washed out blue of blue indigo- have nit really liked any of the bal blues since outremer..
Rosethulian looks really nice- sort of pinky/ orangy red
Mango looks really yummy and fab summer colour
Cumin looks very similar to seigle...
Just seems like they are regurgitating all last two seasons colours and tweaking them...apart from mango and rose thulian there doesnt seem to be anything really new?

I agree Cumin looks very similar to Seigle (which I don't see as a "spicy" color, so am disappointed. Have been waiting and waiting to get a nice shade of light brain/tan (more like carmel or 06 camel) but no luck.
Mango does look really wonderful, but I've sworn to stay practical with my next purchase.
I am looking for a new tealy blue bag too, and was likewise disappointed in the Blue Indigo for the same reason - it is lovely, but won't quite work with my wardrobe. Fortunately, I also like true blues, so Blue Cobalt has been a lovely addition to my collection - but I totally understand why people want blues with other undertones (I do too, a true blue bag was not the first thing on my list a couple of years back).

Thanks hrhsunshine, federicabarra and cupcakegirl for the intel.
Since there is NO GSH .... I'm not really tempted, but may consider a Lagon mGSH First.

My first choice would be the green...bummer not being sold in the States. I MUST have a Mangue Town, and would like a Jacynth and Cassis, perhaps one in a City and one in a Maxi Twiggy. I can hardly wait for them to be released! 
a little present for you!
Thanks a lot Federica
Jacinthe with silver hardware looks very bright but it may be due to the light...

Can someone who knows please comment on the difference between cumin and gris poivre? When are the new colors supposed to be in stores? I'm deciding if I should get a GP now or wait for cumin. Thanks so much!
Don't panic and buy something that you might regret later. If you don't see both colors in real you can never tell the exact difference from the pictures or the swatches. I've learnt that from the past. Gris Poivre I have seen. It is a lot like Papyrus that I have but much more veiny. Very nice color. Now Cumin of course I will have to wait and see. Even if the new season is out the older colors are out as well in many styles most of the times. A City or a Velo is almost always available in Boutiques or on Balenciaga.com, so in my opinion you should not rush into buying something and then discover that the next color was better for you.
I totally agree!! Please hold on a little bit. I was waiting for almost 2yrs to find the perfect B bag color for myself
Wait than there will be no regret. It's true that even the color swatches in website is diffrent than the real one! Good luck...
