I finally sold and shipped my Sorbet...I haven't really missed it but now I am thinking I should get Peony in lieu of the lost Sorbet! I have Nuage 11 on my wishlist, and some sort of future taupe City too. I already have a lilac city with rh and anthracite with GSH. Is peony a must-have? Is it a beautiful pink that would replace sorbet well...or would you wait for a future pink?
 
Oh no... you sold your Sorbet, I love SOrbet! If i didn't have a pink bbag ( Amethyst) already, I'd definitely get a Sorbet. It's such a beautiful pink, though Peony is so similar, but still love Sorbet.
 
I also think Peony is very similar to Sorbet, less pop a bit richer/darker. I like peony more than Sorbet but if you just sold your Sorbet than maybe you should wait for a different shade of pink.
 
I prefer the Sorbet as well, as the Pivoine looks "already-worn-a-lot" to me, too.

Grenadine appears to be a much deeper shade - more like a pinky red, or a pale Pourpre, from what I can see on the swatches on this Forum.

Regardless of what I've said, I think you should get the Pivoine - or any bag in any colour, really, only if YOU adore it, and not otherwise.
 
I don't know about the newer pinks but I had 04 Rose for a short time and when I looked in the mirror, I thought it made my complexion glow when I wore it but then when I would see it lying around on the chair or looked down on it while I was wearing it..it didn't do much for me. So just as an object to behold...it wasn't great for me.
Then, I got a 2005 Bubblegum Pink which I couldn't imagine liking before I got it because I am not girlie. However every single time I look at it, I smile. I just love it as an object and as something to wear. That feeling about it endures.
That is how I make a decision whether to keep a bag or not.

Just bought a sorbet day on ebay. did u sell it to me? 799?
 
^^, yes I agree with maxx, love the bag you carry.

By the way I love you with your Bubblegum Work, maxx: it suits you (and the Rouge Work is pretty stunning too).


awwh thanks hon
who knew bubblegum pink would work so well...I think part of it is that it is older and has faded just a bit...not as bright so better for me

And the RT was an auction risk.... just so lucky it was never treated so has a richness and softness to it..hard to tell from the auction pictures what I was going to get. Top 3 favorite bags now.
 
I just got email from SA.
