Hi TPFers!

I recently got a balenciaga mini bag in argile. It is cute and girly and i am liking the color, however, i am concerned of leather maintenance. It's brand new and already a bit of discoloration in piping..should i keep it?

popped in to boutique today, wanted to check the new tote in bordeaux, alas, it was not in stock, but leather on black feels sooo silky soft and lush... :hbeat:
and while i was chatting to SA she told me that 2018 collection will have some changes... City will get a longer strap!! :yahoo::happydance:
Which boutique was it Ksuromax?
 
Yesterday, I did walk by the Bal boutique but did not go in since DH was with me and I was not carrying a Bbag. Plus no one is ever in there so I feel like the SA would follow me around in awkward silence (lol). They had the mini graffiti front and center in the window — it looked better IRL than I expected.

it's a very nice bag! the discoloration on the piping is likely the clothing you might be pairing it with (or dirt). since it's a light color try to pair it only with light colors and no dark clothing, and be careful what surfaces you put it on. light colors from all brands will get dirty faster and show wear. Bal leather is very easy to take care of and softens beautifully.

Thank you @ccbaggirl89! Yeah, i decided to keep it coz i love the color. I just have to be more careful and clean it up immediately after use.

I have put a twilly on the handle to protect it from darkening since that's the most common problem i see on Bbags..hehe.. she's beautiful as she is but i am a bit OC with my bags so i just have to do it..haha

The new logo looks like what we will think as "NA" in the AT now :doh::shocked::sick:

OK so that tells us how we'll be able to differentiate tags now that the alphabet has been used up again. Even if they still utilize the alphabet to indicate season, the logo will be different. I was wondering what the changes would be, thanks for posting this!
 
i've been wanting a mini city for so long but i saw this pic online and got all sad. i have her body shape/height and i think it'll look like this on me. like a child's bag. :sad: i think it'd make a tall girl look so super tall, like this model does. it'd probably look okay on the shoulder, but i don't like shoulder bags. any very tall ladies w/the mini?
