Wearing this beauty for the next couple of days - Balenciaga Mute City. Olive green, but I forgot the official name - if someone here could identify the colour, that would be great! Couldn’t find any info on the internet.

I have a story for this bag. Back in 2016 I saw this olive green one in the store and it immediately caught my eye. The SA told me that there was only one olive green in my city. However, I think it was more expensive than the regular city so I didn’t pull the trigger (I did walk out with a wallet of the same colour though :biggrin:). Of course after a while it sold out. A year later, I came across her in a consignment shop, brand new, 50% off. At the time, my priority wasn’t handbags so I didn’t purchase it, but I still kept an eye out just in case it goes on further sale. A few weeks later, it did go on sale and I purchased it right away. In the end I think I got it at around 70% off regular price - and brand new too! My best Bal score to date.

There is a con though, this bag is heavy. The crossbody strap wasn’t very comfortable so prolonged wear could lead to stressed shoulder/back/wrist. I replaced the strap with one of the Coach straps and it’s working well.

Looks like vert veronese from F/W 2015.
