It's gorgeous, I love the look of the leather and can only imagine how silky it must feel. Would love to see pictures of your red too ...

i forgot to take a picture with my 04 red city yesterday, but in the meantime, here's a pic of my new-to-me 03 ph black city from RDC (pictured with a new RM MAM that also arrived yesterday).

LOVE this city and love the oldies <3

Fabulous information and picture, as always. And please do share your *new-to-you* oldies RDC, this is my favourite thread ever.

Hi Beauxgoris!

It's not just an illusion, although the more structured leather makes it look even bigger. Yes, the Caribou Leather Pebbled Flat Brass First bags measure 13"W x 8"H x 3"D whereas the Kidskin & Calfskin Leather versions measure 13"W x 7.5"H x 2.5"D.

The F/W '02 Multi-Zip Pewter Hardware First's (in calfskin suede or "monk" leather that's waxed & distressed calfskin) are also a little bigger than the usual Firsts.

I have some new-to-me oldies I should share with you all. Maybe update my Flat Brass Collection shot ;o)

This thread has the best bags!!!

Thank you and thanks for the reminder. I'll try to remember to take some pics of my true red. Love the oldies.
 
Yay Beaux, stunning. Tell me, how does it feel to carry the caribou bag compared to your other le dix? Less slouch, more structure I guess. Does it feel a *dressier* bag?

Not really. I mean it's a bit more pronounced because it holds the shape so well, but I think it works well for an everyday bag. At least that's what I'm using it for. I think my softer fbf's feel dressy without the strap - it gives it a smaller and different shape. We'll see after a few months if I feel the same.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone.

Oh and Corey - let's see those new bags!!!! :graucho:
 
i got my black ph city from corey today and it's love - i am so glad i waited for the perfect black city. will snap some pictures of it with my 04 red city (which i don't believe i've posted pictures of yet) tonight.

can't wait to see everyone's new oldies pictures!

I would love to see pics of your 04 red city! (unless I missed them). I am starting to really crave a red city or purse with pewter hw! Question: Do red with pewter hw Works exist? Can't say that I've ever seen one.

No, no works until 05 so no pewter hardware works. There may be a weekender though! Very rare.

Nope! You didn't miss them. Here's a not very great picture of my 04 true red city. I'll try to post a better one later.

There were weekenders made in 03 red and the purse style was made in 04 true red, both very hard to find. Not sure if either style was made in the other color red. Red ph cities are htf too, but at least 3 have popped up in the past 7ish months (my 04 red from RDC, French's 03 from AFF, and maxx's 04 red) so there seem to be more of these floating around.
I'm hoping I can find an 03 red weekender some day - French's gorgeous pics of hers made me want one even more. I love the purse style too and would love to track down another in a gorgeous oldie color, like dark turquoise, pumpkin or 04 grey. In the meantime, that pumpkin city on RDC is tempting me like crazy.
 
Beautiful! Such a great red.

There is a yellow pewter hw purse on bonz at the moment. :graucho:
