Share your thoughts on the... 2024 Met Gala
Girlfriend, I've been thinking about your quest for a Chanel somethin-somethin for your PhD Studies. (I've already decided you're getting one) When I saw the Chanel Diaper/Messenger bag I thought it might be exactly what you wanted. Didn't you also mention that you loved the Denim? 'Cause they have them in both Denim and Lambskin as far as I know. Apparently they are sturdy enough to hold a laptop etc.I wish a) the ipad covers were something Bal actually made and b) that I had an ipad to put in one...
Also, I was about to order a flat clutch in VD GGH but then it struck me that I'd never seen pics of said clutch anywhere, and it seems that Bal never made it in 2007... D:
Can someone please help me out???
So many colors at the same time! Can someone please list ALL the colors that T&D are doing and the ones they are planning to do as well?
So far I got these ones down:
-Anthracite (which year?)
-Papeete
-Noix
-Vert d'eau
-Bois de rose
-Galet
-Sorbet
???
i posted the list here...
i don't think we've heard from T&D which anthracite they will be producing...
With regards to the Tomate release...
Bal have done Tomato 2007 and a Tomate 2010. The 2007 was a bright pure primary school red. The 2010 Tomate is an orange. So if you are looking for a red - then this is not it. It's orange for sure! Hope this helps!?
The only good thing I can say is that most girls I know who buy bals only, just go in and buy them and never have to check that they are the right hue of sang, or HW color or size and so on...because there at Balenciaga, So they have no reference to anything else... I think like you said it's us that knows the differences.B)
Considering all the hoopla about the Black leather, it looks nice - in fact almost all the Black bags I have seen so far looked good. Funny how it's never black enough, or too black or wrinkled or not wrinkled enough, it's too veiny, it doesn't have enough veins.
ms Razz...you are a GREAT addition to this thread
You're comment's and post above /\ are very on the money IMO.
could be the funniest thing I have heard in a while...
Absolute perfection straight out of the luxurious yellow Guangzhou envelope. <------genius!
Yeah my avatar had to change as that with my bag buying habits..if you know what I mean... But i still have the picture as my blackberry wallpaper along with a few other celebs<bighead
Alas i am on the completley different end of the spectrum as you with being in a city and a industry where every one I meet and work with is either carrying an authentic Bal or another authentic high end brand, I never went in for the LV's or any other status brand.

I am defintley going to try and enhance my GSH black day as I to LOVE this bag and feel the GSH needs to POP.
sewng thimble jokes... good one!
I only did tarrago dye and used #18 (black) i think SMkelly used Fieblings and tarrago.
I was very happy with the results.

If you want perfection, go drop close to $2000 on the auth and stop whining about it. It's a $250 fake f'n bag, what do you want? I guess it's true, us women are never happy, are we? *I knew a woman once that when I said isn't it a gorgeous day? (90 degrees, no clouds, almost turquoise sky) she replied the sky was a little too blue! Or maybe it wasn't blue enough, can't remember!
exactly.
if you live in the middle of nowhere, you're safe because you have a bag with thimbles on it, and if you live in a big city where bals are prominent, you're still safe because a) everyone is darting everywhere; who the heck has time to stop and gawk?, 2) you see 29834923 bals a day, so you aren't phased or excited at the sight of one, and d) the women who do buy auth bals only aren't bothered with the details because they don't have to be, so they see your bag and love it, yell that your bag twins, yaddy yaddy yada. NBFs are golden imho.
