And somewhat new to the family, here is my second (of hopefully many more:blushing:) ph cities! She is a little dry, just on the front and the tassels, so I have been using some apple conditioner and it is helping a bit. These pics were taken before any moisturizing attemps. I may try some LMB silk serum too, since it sounds like that has worked wonders for many.

aki - you got your eggplant city dream bag - woohoo! She looks gorgeous and very happy lazing in the sunshine with Chino :smile1:

Gorgeous Pewter Hardware lovelies Chemosphere - there is something so special about PH bags. They are my absolute faves.

mzedith, I LOVE the longer strap on my s/s '03 first too! After reading a bunch of threads on this edge coating topic, I re-applied Fieblings edgekote very carefully and painstakingly to my '04 city and my '03 first myself. I figured that with my architecture background and model making experience that this would be no biggie to DIY! It took about 3-4 hours doing multiple light coats with a small paint brush and q-tips. I think it turned out as good as could be expected. The Fieblings IS a bit glossy as some people have criticized but I don't mind that really. The parts that have been flexed and thickened wouldn't make a perfect, clean seal the way less distressed areas would but it still looks so, so much better overall. I am very pleased with the results.

silverfern, Thanks! And I agree... the ph is the best! I don't collect any rh (at least thus far) so it is only ph or SGH for me:love:

Thanks 'S'Silverfern!

I did! I just couldnt believe my luck!It was actually a consigned piece offered to my cousin but she has a thing with used bag.
Long story short, I jumped to buying it and got a really good price too :)
Even sweeter! :D

It's a city !! I'm only looking for Citys and sometimes Weekenders among the 2003-2004 collections. But I don't know if I should reveal the color already or keep the secret :p
Here is a nice hint, I bought it on RDC yesterday :D
