I've just bought the black/gold combo Ceejay - I have to agree with you - the leather on these bags really is fabulous!I am BEYOND wild for the 2012 Holiday Hamilton line, especially my Red City with the Gold HW. Love this so much, I also have the accessories to match!
Check this out .. '05 Rouge Theatre City (I actually have 2!)
OMG...That is just gorgeous...Still my absolute fav colour and leather...Why do you have 2 Ceejay...That is so not fair...:greengrin:
I have searched and searched ... too difficult to find one now in fab condition... thinking of giving up now
I have ruby city rh... and absolutely love her to bits !!
I have 2 .. exactly for the reasons you mention, that finding one in good condition is very hard nowadays. My other one is more beat up, so this one is the more 'pristine' one. I know, I'm a bit ~mad~, but if I find a leather & color that I like, I tend to want 2 just in case.
Really *Mere*??? .. I've been looking for one without any success; just love that leather. In the meantime, I managed to find a Hamilton Gold HW wallet to match the rest of my accessories!!
Ha ha! I'm contemplating the wallet too!
My bag was preowned, but perfect, and I really do think it has the potential to be seriously soft - I adore it!
CeeJay, want to ask you the Red from the 2012 Holiday Hamilton Line, is it a true red? Comparing with conquelicot which do you think is better?
Trying to find a beautiful "Red" bag, still managed to find the Hamilton Line in the market but is very hard to find a conquelicot in good condition. Love to hear your opinion.

^^ yes, it is a true Red! Truly, the Hamilton leather is wonderful! I've pretty much replaced all of my old Coin Purses, Mini-Mini Coin Purses and Make-Up accessories with those from the Hamilton line. They just wear that much better.
I see. Thank you for your comment. I guess I will be getting a wonderful bag for Christmas this year.
It's kind of funny but once I bought my first coral red Balenciaga Day years ago I have been drawn to red bags. Have a red weekender too. A red bag from Proenza S. was also added to my collection. Now I seem to be drawn to that color and just love how it makes a outfit pop. I keep my clothing simple with cream, stone, black and white with a scarf. No prints, ruffles, bling or fussy clothing. I think so many people don't realize how great a red bag is until they own one. I get so tired of seeing black bags. Everyone has them.
Your collection is truly a work of art. Love it. Also thank you for describing the years and leather. It helps so much.

Hi Ceejay,
Which one you rather to choose, rouge cardinal with ghw or coquelicot with shw? I have these options but I never seen them in person, so not sure which one to choose.
Well, kind of hard to say .. because I do love the Coquelicot as it is a 'clean' Red and does look lovely with the silver hardware. However, if you prefer a more subdued Red, then the Rouge Cardinal with the Gold HW would be nice. I guess it's really up to your personal preference.
Beautiful collection! TDF. Red has been my favorite color for more years than I care to say. Yet still, when I see a red anything, I swear my heart starts to beat just a little bit faster. Glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks it's perfectly fine to have many red bags. (How many times do I have to hear, "Do you really need another red bag?"...ah yes, actually, I do!)
