I finally have my dream bag - a Balenciaga Velo in Ultraviolet. There is some very minor wear and the main sign of use is that the handles have darkened a bit, but considering I’ve been hunting this bag for probably years, I’m so happy to have one.

It’s really hard to capture the colour on camera and it is pulling more pink in artificial light. I will need to try to take a photo in daylight tomorrow. I thought I’d compare the colour to my Pashli in Orchid and they come off quite similar in a more yellowy light, a little less so with the flash on, but both have a very definite red undertone.4847A3A1-0333-42FA-825C-D94FBC608D8A.jpegBC75B098-1EFD-4BE3-AF06-0C542E5DEA19.jpeg

I was thinking maybe my purple bag was too bright but looking at yours give me pause

Congratulations! I was just mentioning in the Bal forum that I want something in this color.
