We have a huge high end rummage sale at a local ice rink, it's called boutique at the rink, and it's a 5 day event, a lot of sweaty fun lol.

I asked about this before and was also told about the Avenue bag. I see this one on ebay, but have no idea if it's authentic:

Oh thanks that one is nice too!

I bought an Avenue bag once and immediately sold it. It doesn't stand up by itself. It is very narrow. You can only really carry flat items.

So cute! Do you know what the blue is called? It seems brighter than navy.

Oh wow. Yeah, not for me then. Thank you!

I have no idea what the color is, I wish I did, it is definitely not navy, it's like a royal blue. If anyone has an idea that'd be great.

Found what the color is this morning, it's literally just called blue, I guess it was part of the "brights" collection.

Here's a catalog pic from 1993 showing the Classic Brights. Could your Winnie (1997) be Sapphire? It looks close.

It depends on when that bag was made. Sapphine was a color that was pretty well unique for the 1993-94 styles. The 1997 Fall and Winter catalogs simply list the blue color as "BLUE". If you need color names, please post the serial number or a creed photo of the bags with the date and style codes. It's easier than having to go through your previous posts looking for that information.
