Hello my darlings,

Long overdue are updated collection photos. I know we're all wrapped up in the new season's colors; but maybe you can help me decide what to add next. I'm looking forward to a few of the new colors, but I won't really know until I see the new colors in leather. Pure, luscious leather. Can't help it, though I may try.

I've whittled down to eight bags, but they are a fierce eight, mind you
. :graucho:

2 0 0 9 N o i x - Maybe the fiercest because she has the wrinkles that are to jump off a cliff for; plus she smells so very good. This Balenciaga is pre-loved, and in ready to use condition. I am lucky enough to consider this puppy my go-to bag.

2010 B o i s D e R o s e "BDR" - A favorite, because not only is she light in color, but she manages NOT to get dirty ever. Plus the color is funky, and I swear you can only see the gray tones irl, which makes this gem special. She goes everywhere: shopping in SF, on a long trip to Hawaii, hiking. Her leather is puffy just like back in the day (we're talking 2007, ladies!) and has that texture that all Balenciaga bags should have. I hurt my jaw at the thought of how chewy this leather is.

Allow me...

RERE- you're right... this bag is FIERCE! I love, love, looooove this noix bag! hmmm.... .maybe one day you'll want to whittle down your collection even more?? *fingers crossed*
 
2010 F/W S a h a r a - I sure am getting lucky with these 2010 bags, I tell ya. Puffy, wrinkled, the epitome of perfection. This one also so chewy it makes my jaw hurt. Yeeee!

Exhibit A...

2010 F/W Black Maxi Twiggy - because just one squishy Twiggy isn't enough. Longer strap, but not as long as the Velo? Check. Longer handles? Check. Wear-ability? CHECK. The Maxi is a nice alternative to the City, but probably around the same size. I would say its more like a City, less like a Twiggy for some odd reason. I like the Maxi in darker colors, cause yes, there is bound to be some rubbing going on!

Meet Mrs. Maxi Twiggy in jet, jet, jet black.

2009 C h a t a i g n e - I don't care if my mom says 07 Mogano is better. I am in love with this bag and will always be. :biggrin: She smells of paradise right out the box and is surprisingly neutral. At one point, she was deemed to be the fiercest of all my bags. Believe it.

Still fierce...
