~JULY/AUGUST~ our new Balenciaga acquisitions!

[Deco]

It does look light for VF, no disagreement there. But it looks like for mogano too so I'm guessing it's just the sunlight as you said.

Yeah, in online photos, VF and Mogano are those that are frequently mistaken, two similar colors with the same season code. Much like 05 Navy and Indigo, and 05 Bordeaux and Rouge Theatre. In some photos, they're too close to call, though you can tell easily in person which is which.

Here are two "Vert Fonce" GH Hobos on Yoogis, but clearly one of them is not.

Like @Redbirdhermes, I also got RDC mail today!

The cities are CeeJay's: 07 chevre Vert Gazon and 09 agneau Officier which I finally rescued from layaway (I thought that it would help me be more mindful...yeah...). More regarding these 2 in CeeJay's thread.

The 04 chevre Anis first is from the recent oldies drop.

All of them are super beautiful with gorgeous color and leather.

Wanted to hit you with a 05 green double whammy today, but my Dolma City is stuck somewhere...boo.
Oh, well.
So, here's the most insane Olive Day (@Rose100 , hehe). THIS is how I prefer 05 leathers. Thick, soft and sooooo chewy

Thank you, sweet ladies
Love those pleasant surprises, hihi. The bag even still smells of heavenly leather. The former owner took excellent care of her. Pretty convinced she slept in her dustbag for the past 18 years and rarely got out, if at all.

Pleasant surprises such as these are the best! Dolma will be next.

Continuing on that theme, got the 2nd half of RDC mail today. Never ever thought I would see a pristine 03 mastic (in any style) much less a First along with a beautiful 02 FBF in black. The leather on the black is like a marshmallow while I can't wait to further break in the mastic! While the bag is not technically new, this pristine condition is the closest I'll probably get to being able to do so since all of these Bals have been "new to me".

Wowzers, still blown away by these rare beauties and the conditions they are in. Thank you to the former owner.
