Hi beauxgoris...nice to see you around.

FRENCH
I posted elsewhere but again I must come and admire that beautiful Rose. Mine was mint too. I think some people just can't wear this color and so they sell them with very little mileage. But I find that it is pretty easy to work into my wardrobe.
Your collection is growing by leaps and bounds!
 
It's taken me 2 years of searching high and low but I finally found one of my last HGs - 04 Lilac Flat Clutch :love:

The colour and leather texture are very different to my super saturated and distressed 04 Lilac MU but I love both equally.

And a new to me 04 Eggplant MU, a little more beat up and smooshy than the one I had and let go.

My 2 year old couldn't resist having a wee feel of 04 Anis, Eggy and Lilac :smile1:

What fantastic scores. Surprising how different Lilac can be. Both are luscious tdf keepers forever. So feminine and edgy at the same time. I love these. Also am now a big fan of eggplant as I can see it irl. This new one is GREAT. Does it feel the way you were hoping it would?

Thanks so much for sharing my enthusiasmmaxx!:flowers:

The eggy MU is such a buttery soft little nugget with that melt in the hand quality that I love. I can't stop touching it!
 
Great news about eggy.
How it's going to feel is the hardest thing to be able to determine when purchasing with out seeing irl. And it's such an important element...critical in fact. Makes me want to carry my clutch everyday to get it to that beat up and smooshy state. It's pretty soft to begin with though. They just keep getting better.
 
Just cant beat Eggplant...my city is currently sitting in the bedroom, I needed to stop using it but havent managed to put it away out of sight yet...its too pretty!!!!

Wouldnt say no to a nice little MU, maybe one day.

How big are they roughly?

The MU is about 8" wide x 6" high and 2" deep. I love em (have 6) and use one every day. You should def hunt one down :smile1:
 
Here is something I ran across and thought it might be appropriate for the oldies thread as we are all so in love with the older bags and that usually means pre-owned.

I love to read how things get translated from one language to another. Here is an excerpt (below) from a re-seller in Asia selling a Balenciaga bag.

"The business condition called the brand recycling is a high business of the contribution degree socially, in terms of inheriting rare and valuable products with feeling.
We buy the commodities that Customers used to have, and make them over. After that we provide them next Customers (with ex-Customer's feeling)".



Love how “vintage” is interpreted as “product with feeling”.
(I can't even understand most of the first sentence)
 
I am so happy to be back here with a couple of lucky recent finds, both mint and gorgeous.

Can't remember having seen a blue jean 03 pewter hardware flat clutch until I stumbled across this little gem. This one is out of a time warp, it feels brand new.
