I've also been very anti-Balenciaga but I must say I'm tempted by the denim with the dark brown trim. It looks like a fun casual bag. I saw them at Barneys this week but they didn't have a size I liked. My FREE STUFF card from Barneys (the bonus you get for spending mucho dinero -- actually, its my husband who does that!) should be coming through soon. Maybe I'll buy one.....

Aaaah ... here's my area! I have three Voyage/Weekender bags -
1. Black
2. White
3. Turquoise (although I really think it's the Seafoam color)
Since I travel a lot for work (overseas), they are great for me because I not only put my regular stuff in, but also some work papers, etc. The worse part is that the DO NOT have a strap (if you see one with a strap - IT'S A FAKE!!!!!!!!!).
I also have two of the Office Bags and then three of the City Classique bags.
I think the more petite gals can get away with a big bag, but I agree with some of the folks on the forum ... a tall gal like myself (5'10") CANNOT carry a small bag - it looks ridiculous!

I have the Canvas in the Lime Green/Black Leather. Yeah, unfortunately, it does show up the dirt ... just like the Balenciaga bags that are lighter in color (although, strangely enough, I have a friend who's white bag was less dirty than my Turquoise/Seafoam!).
With the Leather, you can 'wash' it a little bit (just a little bit of soap and water, and sometimes you can get the stain/dirt out). Can't do that with the Canvas. :sad2:
Hello I currently use the Balenciaga city styles as my everyday type of bag but I saw a picture of JLO with a light blue weekender, what do you guys think is it too big for an everyday bag? Thanks

It is a large bag. But who's to say if a bag is too big or too small. It comes down to personal preference and if you're comfortable with it, then go for it
! I've seen some gals in malls carrying huge bags but never gave a second thought about it as they're not walking around all self-conscious like. More often than not, I zone in on awful disgusting, gaudy bags, rather than the sizing of a bag.
I think it's way too big for an everyday bag. I mean how much stuff do you need to lug around with you?? If you do have that much stuff, then it may work, but I think the city is the perfect size and if I wanted something larger, I would go with the day. The weekend is just that... for the weekend.
Again... this is just for me...
