For those of you who have seen Lilac and Watteau, how would you compare these two colors? Which is less feminine? Which one is more neutral/versatile? I owned a Watteau and it's not an overly lady-like color for me but I have never seen Lilac.

Thanks.

Lilac is like the lightest purple in the face of a purple pansy
It is very feminine with I think if I remember correctly it has a touch of gray under tone

I loved Lilac, but then again I fell in love with everything from the FW 2009 campaign.
If I could describe the difference, I would say Lilac had a sexy smokiness to it. Does that make sense? When I see Watteau, I see Pink. But when I see Lilac, I see a dusty mauve.
However I have not owned Watteau, so take that with a grain of salt.

Went to first round NCAA basketball tournament yesterday. Nine hours of basketball is a lot! We watched four games. But it was really fun! A break today and then we have the second round tomorrow.

As it relates to BV, the chain tote served very well for my wonderful covert operation to sneak in cocoa almonds, chocolate, and cookies. She had those big zip pockets which came in handy!

I envy you at the basketball games, my favorite KY Wildcats are playing this weekend. My daughter has tickets for us to the Final Four in Phoenix but I'm only going if my team is playing. I could sit all day at a ball game, that's my favorite thing. Since I moved to the west coast I started watching UCLA. I am a big Steve Alford fan, I use to watch him play at Indiana, he was a great player and cute too. We went to a lot of his games.

Oooooh I spy beautiful colours in the Fall/Winter 2017 lineup. :drool:
I won't post anything yet since some of us are still waiting for spring to rear it's head.

Okay, I'll play :smile:
(and I don't know this for a fact, but it looks like there might be another metallic coming - don't take it as gospel though)

THE DRAMA OF IT ALL!!!

Thank you! I have been searching online since you posted and I found a larger photo of that bag. It does look like it might be metallic. Or it could be the lighting. Crossing my fingers for metallic. I know you're way up north but I think our CIA could use your sleuthing skills. You seem to get the scoop really early.
