A few limited edition additions that arrived this week.

F/W 2011 LE Fluo Pink Lizard Embossed Classic City
This color certainly lives up to the fluorescent part of the name. It was glowing through the white Bal dust bag. :lol:
I’lll be rehabbing this one and hope to get her looking as good as new again soon. 💕

S/S 2015 LE Holiday Purple Smooth Coated Calfskin Matte and Patent Leather Trim City
A structured bag that even though the officially name is purple has a lot more blue in her. 💙

S/S 2013 LE Metallic Marine Brushed Silver HW Velo
Another dark blue with purplish undertones. The Velo is a new style for me that I’m gravitating towards and this one does not disappoint. The leather is surprising soft and the blue metallic is so darn pretty. 😍

This is by far the brightest Bal I own now. Anticipating the reaction when I walk in carrying her:

You are terribly sweet and kind. Thank you, @vesna! :flowers:

Secondly, I’d like to point out that you have some amazing bags in your collection too! In addition to that, you have an adorable Beagle for some added irresistible cuteness. :hugs:

This green is super gorgeous. Congrats!
Thank you!! This was a big HG for me! :heart:

I think I bought a cyclade city from 2010 (color 4606). I am hoping that is is a bit greener IRL. Reading about that year leather and colors, they fade and yellow, so if this one is a bit greener, like some photos show, that would be IT ! Also hope it does not have a moldy smell. I could not ask the seller, could not find where to ask on Mercari, through buyee.... but a lot of photos showed a decent clean bag. Who knows when it will arrive.

I have no idea why I am suddenly obsessed with blue greenish bags, looking at a bleu paon for weeks now. In the meantime bought a cyclade Part-time but the seller decided to keep it (I do not blame her a bit). I think it is the white Canadian winter and -22F temperature that invokes the thirst for colors and dreams of Cyclade islands and sea in Greece (was there on Crete three weeks last summer)


City is "meh" for me. Too big to be an errand bag, too small to be a work bag, and I do not do anything in-between, like lunches with friends, brunches....and have 3 cities already ??? just because I could not resist the colors - dark violet (woaaa), orange brulee (wohooo) and lovely neutral grey tarmac with rose gold hardware.

Cyclade, be the one I will also love please, no returns allowed !

Oh my gosh, I've seen this bag listed on Mercari/Buyee for a while, I debated buying it but then decided to hold off until I find an 05 turquoise. Please post photos when it arrives to you 🩵 I hate that you can't message the seller, however Buyee's customer service is fantastic & you can ask them & they will ask for you!
