Very Much Loved LV, Chloe Paddys, Balenciaga and others

[aki_sato]

(****Warning, a really long thread***)
*extract of what I wrote on Bal Forum* Apology to anyone who has to read it twice...
I thought it is nice to tell my story and the journey till now..

Like I wrote on Balenciaga forum, I think I have only started a new thread on the main board once and that is to celebrate the arrival of my LE Magenta City..

I started my balenciaga affair last year during my schooling in Japan when I saw my first Balenciaga IRL, Vert D'eau City I was still into Chloe at that time so didn't know all about Balenciaga..

The first thing I noticed about VD was the pretty colour! So I picked it up from the display and noticed right away how light it is in comparo to my Chloe Paddy!
As much as I love that bag, I didn't end up buying it because the price was so ridiculously expensive!

When I went back to Sydney, I started to learn more about Bbags and in the same time was still Chloe crazy!
And my first purchase too, a Calcaire Twiggy, a total serendipity! (borrowing this word from another beloved TPFer buddy Pluiee) when I was looking for Chloe 05 Craie..

From then, my addiction started!
05 Calcaire is followed by:
04 Lilac
05 Calcaire City (yup, I love Calcaire)
04 Seafoam
07 Aquamarine
06 Calcaire Pony
05 Turqey City
07 LE Magenta,
06 Blue India Work,
07 Tomato,
07 Jaune,
05 Magenta,
05 Apple Green Day
05 Turqey Twiggy
04 Seafom First
08 EB Work,
08 BG
....and the latest purchase that made appearance yesterday, the ULTIMATE bag ..

I never really have a HG except for my 04 Lilac..
That is the only bag I know I wanted so badly..hence when I found it, I didn't even think twice pressing the BIN

So over these times, my balenciaga purchases have never really been such a major thing for me..I bought them because I like them and never give it much thought..
I too have sold many of my bags to help me with the new purchases..Because of this, I finally learnt exactly what I love in Bbags and what I should look for, and to be patient! *a virtue I don't have when it comes to Bbags* which what my SO has been telling me, I should only buy what I love not like!

So when I stumble upon this little gem, I could not resist..And in order to fund her, I have sacrificed so many bags of mine..and I have to say, it's all worth it!!
