New to me indigo barenia Evie, with a snazzy new strap I added from Etsy.
Always wanted something in barenia but the classic fauve doesn't go wth my wardrobe. When this popped up (thank you to the lovely person who parted with it), I knew it was the perfect addition. The feel is just amazing, and the deep indigo makes me so happy.

i agree! Do you also think it’s too repetitive to get a b30 Fauve
barenia phw when I already have a gold Togo b30 ghw? Would love some opinions!

Yes I think so. Though there are differences, I use the colors interchangeably. I have a lot of gold bags. But I prefer different styles and models bc I have different uses for them. I would not get sufficient use out of two B30s that are in the same color family with slight variations in leather color, texture and different hw. I do use my B30 and B25 sellier (the final pic on the bottom) , both gold, in different situations. However, many feel differently and have for example, black birkins or kelly bags with diff hw. (I have a black barenia B30 and a Black box kelly retourne, and I almost never wear the latter) YMMV.

The 35 trim II and the 32 HaC, ghw (4th pic) are Fauve smooth barenia. The rest are epsom, swift, hunter, clemence,* etc. The swift 30B in pic 1,2, and the 7th looks more matte than it is IRL.

*The TGM picotin is Clemence pebbled leather. I rehomed my 32 HAC years ago bc the ghw made me feel like a Ralph Lauren ad, preppy and conservative. I don’t regret that, and I do have some color combos in GHW, just not in gold lol. JMO

ETA this pic bc I thought it might perhaps show the color variation more clearly
