Great Twiggy! I love that style. Wear her in good health!
!!! Enjoy your new bag !
This is the gorgeous Blue Lazuil that I remember seeing at the store!! (Didn't recognize it in your first pic). What a captivating color!
Thank you! I knew the color didn't show well so I added another pic today. Thank you for your kind comments! I have an addiction to all bags in blue!!! lol
Oh thank you kindly, Kendie26!!Congrats...color looks great especially with your pretty nail color!
Bought quite a few bags1) 2017 beige latte metallic edge with gold hardware. After missing the beige de sables ME city, I was thinking of getting a light coloured bag for the longest time and almost bought the beige praline in silver hardware (it was on massive discount). But decided to wait out for a true beige bal with gold hardware. So glad I did
there she is:
This would be the most versatile colour combination ever for me - I'm a white, taupe, black, baby blue person.
2) A Gris Fossile City S with gold hardware. Wanted a grey with gold hardware bag. I can't say I'm totally in love with this combination. I might have preferred something in lighter grey? I don't know but will keep this bag and use it and see how. I'm a big fan of gold grey combination.
3 & 4) A Black city and a black velo. Both in G12 Silver hardware. These are classic bal colours and both styles are must haves for any bal collectors!!! Silver hardware goes anywhere. From formal work to casual outings.
yes... I'm running a Balenciaga Bag craze and I'm super banned for the rest of the year
Will do more comparison shots once I get the time to take a family photo.

This is the little history behind this lovely one:
I first saw her just listed at VC and thought she was same brown shade than the one I own (light caramel) and decided posting it at the Finds thread but, once I had a second look and closer inspection (I was on my cell) I realized it was darker brown than mine, kind a dark caramel shade. Also, I noticed that fabric on front pocket zipper was darker as well as the stitches!. So I finally decided to go for her and here she is:
Miss 01 Village tote in dark caramel
Comparison photos with light caramel:
Also the leather on the darker one is not distressed, it´s more like nappa feeling.
