P&P, I actually wore the GGH bag with Black silver jacket when I was in London early this year thats because I only brought 3 bags ( 02 FBH , 06 Black Work and sapphire GGH hobo )to England this time.The most of the time I was wearing the moto jacket with 02 choco hobo or Work but in London I had to carry GGH hobo because I had to get on Tube and walking busy streets with kids so needed to close the zip of my bag.......but I found that it looked a bit clashy indeed. And I am sure some people would wear the combo beautifuly though! Yes! Eilene, I am also looking forward to seeing your great shots!!!

I do see what you are saying...but since I only have 2 Bal purses I'm going to wear them with either of my jackets no matter what! I can't wait to get a Black City or work!!! I really want the Cheve leather though so I'll hold out till I find the perfect one!
 
Presenting....

'10 Canard/Petrol moto jacket


The S/S '10 leather is incredibly soft and smooth...definitely more lightweight than my '09 F/W Khaki moto jacket. I don't think that this leather will develop the fingernail marks and other surface scratches that are already wearing nicely in to my Khaki jacket (I love the scratches!!). It's a slightly more sophisticated look, but definitely still a cool, urban kind of jacket. I love it!!!!

rollergirl, Thank you very much !!!

Eilene, Anytime!!! Looking forward to it! I know you are gorgeous and you d wear the jacket and bags so well!!!

ehemelay. I love the whole look! The petrol colour is honestly great on you!!! Congrats again!!!
 
Hello tpf'ers! I would love some advice. I have decided that I'm going to treat myself to one of these gorgeous jackets and it probably doesn't make sense to have black since I already own a black biker jacket. So... the question is, which color to get of the following:

-Canard (dark gray)
-Havana (chestnut/reddish brown, fairly dark)
-Kaki (olivey brown)

These are the colors appearing on b's website that appeal to me and I am not really convenient to a bal store so i'm buying online. I have blond hair, green eyes and tend to wear lots of neutrals (black, gray, stone). THoughts? I am so indecisive about this because they ALL look pretty. Which one do you think I'd find most versatile? Thanks in advance for your replies!!!
 
Hey ladies, I'm new to this thread and had a question on the sizing. I usually take a size 4 so I decided to order a size 40. The SA I was working with told me they run really small. It was a toss up between a 38 and 40. I just know you are supposed to order leather jackets smaller becasue they will stretch.
 
My credit card just deposited $2000 into my checking acct. I did not realize I had points on my card every time I buy (after all these years)...so I decided to cash them in!!! What a great surprise that was! Do you think I could have just saved all this money....nooooo...I had to buy another Balenciaga Leather jacket!!! I'm BAD!!!
I decided to get the 2010 S/S Olive green in (I can't believe this one) size 34!!! I LOVE the fit even though it is a little tight in the arm pit area...I'll deal with it. Here are some mod pics...

I really LOVE this jacket...the buttery leather (oh so soft) and the color (beautiful olive green)...it is definitely my color. It is so hard to get the true shade of green. I have to say that when I took it out of the box...I was in love!! I got a 34 & 36 to try. I decided to go with the 34 since everyone says they stretch.
