Is anyone getting Olive something from T&D? I'm thinking of getting OLIVE CITY, but I can't decide on RH or GSH. Any opinions will be appreciated, thanks!

Xooey, I ordered Olive PT GSH, it's funny you mentioned that cos after I did, I kept going back and forth asking myself the same question.

I see some girls replied GSH, I'm sticking to my choice, did you figured out yet?

I was wondering the same thing too, seems like a lot of girls in the same boat. I've been on a spending ban, so this is going to be my first purchase. Probably getting an Olive City RH, since I wear too much warm tones for GSH. But I'm loving the idea of an Olive clutch/wallet in GSH...

'09 Black RH City vs. '10 Black RH City

Here are some comparison photos of T&D's '09 Black RH City vs. '10 Black RH City from the latest batch.

The '09 Black RH City has super 'bubbly'/bumpy-looking leather and very thick tassels with white streaks in between which I had to colour in with a black marker - I tried to be happy with the bag, but deep down, I knew I deserved better, ha! I was very sad with my '09 Black RH City, but decided to just keep it anyway. But the dream of owning the perfect Black RH City was never far away from my mind ... and my dream finally came true with the '10 Black RH City! I requested for T&D to pick me one that's as distressed as possible (they only had 2 Black RH City bags left anyway, so it wasn't too difficult to make a choice) and here're the photos.

In the 1st pic, the '10 Black RH City is at the top.

In the 2nd pic, the '10 Black RH City is at the bottom.

The 3rd pic compares the handles of the 2 Black RH City bags. '10 Black RH City is on top of the '09 Black RH City.

All pics are mine.

Both bags are jet black. I took the photos in the day, with natural sunlight streaming in and I guess the over-exposure has resulted in the bags photographing grey-black. But I assure you, they are truly as black as coal.

Anthracite Triple Tour Bracelet with GSH

Here's a photo of my Anthra TT Bracelet with GSH from T&D. I love it, but it's sooooo hard to wear! I had a very difficult time slipping the leather end of the bracelet through the metal buckle. The width of my leather bracelet is almost as wide as the width of the metal buckle, and it makes it really difficult for me to loop it through. Is anyone else having the same problem? The metal buckle is also really stiff and hard to manipulate. Putting on the bracelet is really an epic struggle for me. Otherwise, it is very beautiful.

kelsbags, I hope you manage to snag the last Black RH City. Do post pics when you get it.

Naiala & with.the.band, I'm still deciding. I like how the RH contrasts against the Olive leather, but I have too many RH bags. If only T&D would do RGGH, I would get Olive with RGGH in a heartbeat. One can only dream, eh?

GSH on olive would be perfect IMO. I love GSH with anything.. especially in a PT or City.

The new black city handles are spot on to my authentic black RH city. I hated the old handles so much.

 

[Alasse]

xooey - the bracelet is difficult to put on when it is new. it somehow softens after several uses ... at least my black RH bracelet was easier to wear after some weeks.

^xooey = thank so for posting the comparison, i had exactly the same issue with T&D black from 09 (leather and handles) and sold mine ages and ages ago, my new black RH from this batch has made me dance for joy and your photos confirmed it
Naiala - great combo, i have seen it in real life that combo - i've got an olive RH on the way. (not bought any GH... yet )

Gals, are Joy's Speedies worth the money? I want a Mono and a Damier Ebene Speedy but her shipping to my country starts at $73...

I could order from Jacky, he charges $30, but I want to be sure I'm not making mistakes since they're my first reps. If Joy's are a lot better I will shell out but I want to make sure they're worth the extra cash!

 

[Ilovebags]

Does anyone know if BUY&SELLS light gray or medium gray lambskin leather looks close to galet ?? I missed out on Galet and would like to order one from her thank-you, much appreciate any help

T&D said they will be making regular grey next, at least thats what they told me.

About the T&D bracelets Same think happened to me but i agree with Alasse, after a while of practicing back and forth it finally worked. Now it's much easier.

T&D are doing Grey soon? That's new, I had no idea, I know Bois de Rose it's coming and I hope that Bleu Roi is still on. Oh also Turquoise Work and City styles only.::

Has anyone actually put in an order with Jacky for items that are sold out.
He said he'll make it for me, but how long does that actually take?
I want to get it before the holiday in Canada...

 

[ZenEssence]

Yes, plenty of times. It normally takes about 5 days, depending on what you ordered.

the "jasper" sc bag is the wrong color red...the authentic is more of a brick red, not cherry...

Does anyone have the Alexander Wang black Eniko with brass zippers from Catty? I am thinking or ordering one but want to know if the zipper color is spot on or off. It looks off in her pics but wanted to verify. TIA.

[HandbagDiva]

Is anyone in the US (pref. CA but by no means necessary) planning on a Jacky order anytime soon?

I need some Mulberry flat replacement studs sent to me. He wants me to wait for my next order so he can send it along with that.

I wasn't planning on another order anytime soon so i'm wondering if he can tuck the hardware in your package and you can send it to me (I will pay postage) once you get it?

Please PM me!
