MAY/JUNE ~ Let's see those pretties!

[yuzulife]

I have been busy buying up a number of oldies…

2009 Pourpre - one of my favorite colors in agneau. I had a Part Time with GSH in the past but ultimately let it go because of its weight. I am happy to replace it with a RH version.

2006 Rouille - I have bags from 2002 - 2005 and 2007 and beyond but somehow always skipped 2006! Happy that this bright neutral is in my collection now.

And lastly not one but TWO time capsule bags!!

2007 French Blue - Thanks SO much for the Finds thread which is where I came across this 2007 French Blue. It is completely brand new. Its glossy leather is reflecting light in a strange way so it looks like there is a stain on the front when this baby is pristine. This picture is terrible and doesn’t capture the beauty of this color and the pristine bag condition. The color pops more in real life. It unfortunately looks dull due to my bad picture.

2005 Chocolate - I have had numerous opportunities to purchase a chocolate city over the years but am happy that I waited until now because this bag is PRISTINE! It must have been sitting in a dark closet since it was purchased nearly two decades ago. It still has all the original gloss!

Wow, amazing and gorgeous! Love the variety of colors and that 07 French Blue and 05 Chocolate!

never seen a Chocolate that “cracked” and textured!

Very hard to photograph. This is the best I can do. I do see an O. But it’s smaller. Color code is 4160, which should be Bleu mineral?

Oh wow, just looked at it in natural light and it is a dark navy!


I’m posting lots of pics hoping something will stick.

I’ve not seen any of them other than the brown. I’ve noted that outlet bags have codes that don’t always align with the colours we associate them with, it seems pretty random on some bags.

It does look blue, with a blue zipper tape. I just didn’t notice it in my dark office. You can see the blue in the flash photos.

I wonder how many colours they produced?

I’d seen black and your brown one but wasn’t even aware of the blue. Red monk would be so nice. 😊

Thank you! It is as though there is a new glossy layer on the Chocolate Bal that needs to be broken in, since it is completely new.

I keep coming back to stare at the Pourpre. It's stunning.

I just received my patchwork Sunday, and I love it! I’ve been wanting a patchwork Bal for awhile, but until recently couldn’t find one in the color combo and at price point I was looking for:
