It’s raining Balenciaga bags on me! :lol: I received two beauties yesterday, and I am expecting another First in Pivoine today! Below are my two (new to me) Firsts in S/S 2009 Granny and S/S 2008 (Chèvre leather I think) Noir.

Next week, my 2004 Seafoam Purse will be here as well a my 2006 Lilac Work. :yahoo:
I would love some Seafoam and Lilac, can't wait to see yours!

Hi lovely people. Can I please ask if anyone has fabric Bbag? Or silver/metalic colour? Are they hard to hard to look after? Thank you ^_^
I have a few fabric bags (06 toile & damask). Despite being on the lighter side, I don’t find them particularly hard to look after. I’m not one to baby anything, but I also rotate the bags I use quite frequently. I’ll spot clean here and there if the fabric gets a little dingy.

I’ve also had a couple metallic bags - a silver city (forget which year, the studs were also a matte-ish silver and the bag was more smooth than crinkly - I called it my astronaut bag) and an 05 pewter. Small touch ups here and there on the body and corners were actually a bit easier with those since the metallic was forgiving, but I was always extra careful with the handles bc I‘m most worried about fading there. The pewter is the only silver I still have.

Which fabric and/or silver bags are you thinking about & what do you have in mind for them? Like are you looking for an everyday bag, a fun special accent piece, etc?

i have a Pewter Work from 2005, it has some signs of wear on the corners, but i don't know what her first owner did (babied, or played football with it) and the body of the bag is in great shape, leather didn't peel, nor flake, it's soft and supple (it's chevre) and it still has lustre and nice shine
@muchstuff had denim Day and silver Bazar, maybe she can chime in as well

Thank you so much for your replies.
I don't have any particular one in mind just yet but I saw a few fabric ones and they look beautiful but I wonder if it will be hard to keep it clean.
I also like the look of silver and metalic one but then I saw some preloved ones on ebay they seems to have some black lines on silver city bag so I wonder if the fabric turn to look like that when they get older. I will add a couple photos of the one I saw so you know what I meant. I hope my english make sense >.<*
I probably won't be using the bag everyday because I work from home and not often go out but I don't normally baby my bag so I thought should I avoid buying them but everytime I saw it, I wanted it... lol

i travelled with my M Bazar twice and it's one of the best bags for that purpose
lightweigt, roomy, easy to throw on the shoulder, fits nicely the hand-luggage compartment on the plane, zip shuts...
So it’s probably more of a travel bag than an everyday bag! Looking for something to use as an everyday bag! So far I guess as the name is “everyday tote” that the logo tote is probably perfect. Used it yesterday and it’s very light and comfortable, even when stuffed. One more question please, what kind of leather are the everyday totes? Thank you
:ty:

actually i used my M Bazar for every day/office routine A LOT, just highlighted her travel option as normally not every daily dag would serve that purpose, too, so i though it's worth mentioning.
Everyday Tote is made of calfskin :smile:
