I have been very disappointed with the colors that have been released so far for Fall 07. I really thought they would be WOW and they just seem a little boring.... Anyone else feel this way?
I think most of the colors being released right now are "safe" colors. More on the neutral (and some would say boring) side. Those are the type of colors I like, so I am loving a lot of the fall colors: mastic, sienna, plomb, cinnamon, dark olive - I only wish I had the money to buy all of the bags I want.
But, if you are not a neutral bag girl or if you feel like you have those bases covered already I can see how you might be bored by these new colors.
At the outset of each new Bal season, I've noticed that most people tend to be underwhelmed with the new colors. Then a month or two passes by and people start coming around. Especially on this forum, we tend to "build things up" before each collection comes out by ruminating and speculating on whatever tiny bits of Bal intelligence has been gathered, i.e. long discussions about what that fuzzy-looking color swatch might really look like in real life. And then we get all sweaty and excited and eager to see the real thing. When we finally do see them, it's anticlimactic at first. Basically, I think it just takes time for new colors to grow on us.
