I'm 43 years old...just bought my first Bal this weekend. I bought one that I think looks more "mature" and not too flashy, but still has gorgeous giant hardware. Buy what you love!

I started buying Bals when I was 44. I have a big collection now. Many RH City bags. I do enjoy them, I don't think they look girly on me even my Rose Berlingot RH City looks nice. Noone looks at me in a weird way, but even if they did I would guess they were jealous lol. There is no age limit with Bals. I have seen much older ladies wearing them and I do like them. I am 49 now and I know I will be using them for a long long time. Also, I don't really care what people think. They look great with all my outfits so that is the most important thing for me. And I don't judge myself lightly. Wear them, enjoy them, we all love them, they will always look great on you too I am sure.
Thank you!!! Very well said!!! This would make me feel more confident carrying my Bals!!
You know I just love wearing my tear jeans still and pairing them with my Bals, feel so ME!!!
))) I guess I'm going to collect more Bal bags and enjoy them for at least another ... 20 years if I .... had a longlife!!!!! ))))

You are so welcome. I am a tutor and I dress casually. I love jeans. My Bals look so nice with my outfits as I have said. It also feels so ME. I am glad you feel that way too. Don't doubt your judgement. Do what makes you feel better. I am sure you can support that.
Your bag is beautiful!May I ask what color it is? Thanks!
Thank you so much! It's the 2012 Gris Tarmac color with G12 rose gold hardware. This picture makes it look almost navy blue but it's a smokey dark grey IRL.
I have an oldie coming today! Hopefully my BF signs for it or I will have to wait until Saturday to pick it up and I'm super impatient!!

thanks!
Hmmm, it doesn't seem to apply to just one style, it's on the city, the mini city, the velo, and different types of hardware as well. Anyone?
Hi all, does anybody recognize this color? Gilt says it is brown/cinnamon but I know cinnamon and this does not look like that.
Actually, this color doesn't look nice to me. I was looking for cinnamon which is why I found this.

Am I the only one having trouble getting in touch with Realdealcollection? I sent them an email about an item but they never responded. I thought they were really good, but it looks like I was wrong. Terrible customer service. I sent in my bag to them but now I'm getting really worried.
