A long-awaited beauty was delivered to me today - it feels like I've been waiting for her forever. Somehow she's even better than the photos :love: I have another little goodie arriving later this week so I'll also post when she arrives!

Thanks to the ladies in the Finds thread for scouting this, and to @Deco for authenticating for me.

Introducing my lovely 07 Vert Foncé Work

I've been looking for a white leather bag for a while now and was debating between a Bal City or some form of Bottega intrecciatto. Decided that the City's style lends itself for more longevity in a harder-to-care-for color like white. I'm in Bangkok and you will see the City bag very often around town, but the white definitely received a few smiles today, as I think a lot of people, like myself in the past (and still a bit today), are afraid of its maintenance, so it's not a common color to see around. For being from '08, I am really happy with the overall condition and how the leather looks. I had another option of the same bag from '12 but the leather on that one looked drier.

Thank you again to @muchstuff for helping me authenticate and for all the lovely people who chimed in and helped me with my questions. :flowers:

She's my little white cloudddd. ☁️:love:

You are so sweet, thank you, yes I did yay!! :biggrin: I'm glad too, it could have definitely been a different color from the earlier pics, but I really wanted white. This IG seller had sold many bags within minutes (really good pricing), so I could hardly sleep waiting for him to respond in the morning LOL. 😅 Thank you, Chloe! :heart:
