Hayley!!! I felt an EB bag today and I would like to report that my Vert D'Eau has much, much smoother, silkier, and softer leather. I am still going to get my EB City from ******, but that won't be in my hands for another few weeks yet. I will try to remember to post comparison pics between EB & VD in this thread. I love the colour of EB. I think it's the blue I have been searching for. I am not looking forward to the leather though...
KDC thanks for your reply - yes, i am exactly the same, i want the EB colour, but definitely prefer the smoother, less veiny and dry finishes. However, while its an exquisite colour, the Vert D'Eau is one i imagine i might not wear, as i tend not to use my pastel coloured accessories as much as darker, brighter tones ... hmmm its certainly a tough decision though! I look forward to hearing your verdict once you have your EB city to compare!
