Hi ladies! I just got the most gorgeous mini city in metallic edge silver! It says "2016 3" on it so I guess it's from the f/w collection. The inside tab has Balenciaga paris heat-stamped in silver as well as the serial number on the back (please see photos) Does any one else's bag come this way too?

Yep, I think mine is exactly the same :)
 
Hello ALL! This may be a question that has been addressed before and if so, i do apologize. Have any of you viewed the metallic edge small city bag? I am interested to see how it compares to the regular city. I think the mini city is just a tad small for my every day use. Thank you so much for any/all help! Love all of your photos. I am confident this will be my next purchase just unsure of which size and where to buy!
I don't have any pics but the size is perfect. It's a lot bigger than the mini bit not as big as the regular size. Check out the small city thread where people have posted pictures.

Hi all! So, I just purchased the regular sized ME with GHW, but now I'm having second thoughts that I should've purchased the SHW. The GHW is gorgeous with a lot of bling, and this bag will be my weekend prance around daytime bag. Your thoughts: GHW too blingy and formal for daytime?? Also, when you purchased yours, what made you choose the hardware color you chose? TIA! Please help!

Not too formal--it's still a Bal City, which is inherently not an uptight, formal bag for daytime. It's great in all the HW choices. My ME Town came in the pale gold, which I like because it's visually in between bright gold and silver.

To me, the silver is the edgiest option.

Go with what you love!

Thanks for your feedback! I tend to gravitate towards GHW, but I think I want this bag to feel more edgy so I might make an exchange.

I have the silver and I agree with you that black and gold seems to me more blingy! I'm very very casual and I felt that the black and silver was more sporty. At the time I got mine it was really hard to find black and silver but I waited it out, go with your heart or else your silver itch may never be scratched!

Hey JP! Thanks for your reply! I'm still waiting for the bag to arrive but no decision made yet. I have a few other Black with GHW bags, so I just might need a little Silver in my life. Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
 
I'm happy to say that I'm in the waiting lounge for my black sliver me town! It will arrive sometime in August eeeeeee! I've been eyeing this bag for quite some time. I've been wavering back and forth on it because I don't really need it. I checked out the new small city and was seriously considering getting it instead, because the town is listed over 2k and the small city was roughly 1800 and when you add tax it's still going to be over 2k. Honestly I'm finding it hard to justify the cost on bags anymore because I don't really need anymore. I really had my heart set on this color combo and this leather. I was eyeballing a black gold metal edge bag on ****** for a while and while I know the gold isn't a bright gold I already have a black grh city so I didn't want to get something similar and I wanted something to wear that will go with silver jewelry/accessories. I emailed Erica a while back if she was planning on getting any black silver me towns she said she thinks she will be. I kind of sat on it for a while and today when I hopped on FB and saw that she got a bunch bals I checked it out and sure enough the bag I want the way I want it is available so I jumped on it and was able to preorder one and even used a coupon code. Total savings is over $800 when you factor in tax! I'm so excited and happy that I waited until I was able to get my hg color combo. [emoji7]

I know I have spent a lot in the past on her site [emoji13] however I have been seriously cutting back big time on my handbag shopping. The past year I only got 2.5 bags 1.5 LV and the other Chloe( the .5 of a bag is a pouchette lol not really a full bag kwim). I got two cheapie bags at Costco this year totaling a whopping $80. So this will be my first serious handbag purchase of the year. I'd like to make one or two more but it's probably not going to happen unless I receive some very generous gifts.

Hi Ladies,

Any intel on what are the colours for F/W'16 for metallic edge city?

Went to check out the Spore boutique but no f/w'16 ME bags yet. The SA said she only knows there were 2 colours [army/military green and a baby blue].

Thanks
 
dear Ladies!

I have an issue with a metal edge black city from 2014.

the stitches at the shoulder strap near the bale are all wrong! I am very frustrated about this issue.. can't understand if this is a manufacturing fault or fake bag feature :sad:
for example at my mini city the stitches go straight..
i need your help! please share how your stitches look in the same place.

pictures attached.

Where did you get it? Was it authenticated if you bought it preloved and not directly from a Bal retailer? If you're concerned about it being fake, you'll want to get an authentication service to check it out.
