a few days ago this little beauty arrived. 
i already had a Houston in pomme and I usually do not like having two of the same bag but when i saw this on ebay I could not resist. 
the Houston is such a versatile bag and i was longing for something in the baby blue vernis color, after seeing it IRL in Beverly Hills a few weeks ago (a consignment store had a keepall in this color).
the baby blue color is best described as robin's egg blue. i love it. i am amazed at the condition of this particular bag, given that its almost 10 years old! I don't think the previous owner used it much, because the inside is perfectly clean, the vachetta is relatively light, and the vernis hasn't really discolored that much (i've seen several pics of baby blue vernis bags that turned completely *green* due to sun exposure). there are some ink spots on the left side on one side, but they're easily covered up w/ a bandeau!
