MAY/JUNE new baby Bal purchases *SHOW US!!!*
- Thread starter LostInBal
- Start date
This babe arrived last Thursday and after a little TLC I’m quite pleased with the results. Body of the bag was in really good condition for its age but the handles..
I managed to dye them mixing up some watercolor pencils and applied with little touch to the handles very carefully plus replaced the laces. Due its rarely and ridiculous price (160€) it’s definitely, my most gorgeous snap find. Love her so much
This how the handles were originally.

Thank you my friend!
I’m not confortable with the grey shade of the handles lace (it should be darker) so I ordered the correct ones
Striked again...oh boy...what a slippery slope I'm sliding down just for all these gorgeous Bals 
Here goes (pic is from the listing). The tag says it's RT, but the pics can be quite deceiving.
Will post real pics when my pretty arrives

Yea, I got it. I guess she used a flash for the pics. We'll see about the real color when she gets here.But you got it?!

Zipper’s fabric has lighter red shade than RT though, but let’s wait
Here's a pic of the zipper tab's underside
It's a friggin chameleon
Hopefully, I didn't get a dud...fingers crossed.

Thank you dear, I was a little scared having to touch the handles but I did my best and I’m just so proud
Getting antsy now...
Seller says the bag is from 2005. Hm, gonna have to wait and I'll make lots of pictures for the AT thread. Shoulda asked here before the fact...not after...
Stupid, that's me
Does she have the paper tags? There’s nothing on the tag itself that will indicate the year. There are other nice reds don’t forget!Getting antsy now...
