I have the black, and it is really nice. When I get home, I'll post a pic of my black Lush bag next to my real pink Balenciaga.

emerald green
gray

Is the "arena" the same as the small Le Dix? If so, I have one in pink and red, and I have seen it in a really pretty royal blue too.

its like the big fat stout brother to the chic handbags...
it needs a strap and some nicer detailing like the more ladylike bags do...
but not tooo ladylike... o i dunno
im off balenciagas like i said now

I saw the black one in Selfridges-I've been lusting after it for ages, and then I saw it up close and I was like, "Is that it???!!! "!!!! My friend was like "please don't pay that much for that" because she just didn't understand my Balenciaga obsession in the first place....I don't know it was just a bit too un-ladylike for me. But the leather was so, so soft! I'm not going to get black, but I fell in love with the red and brown. :P

So I agree with Sedi on the un-ladylike thing...

[sweetjane]

is this the bag?

[impossibleprincess]

I love the colour that (Ashley?) is holding-haven't seen it anywhere else though!

Yeah... I've only seen the darker green...

Does anyone know anything about that paler green??

[impossibleprincess]

Chocsta-just saw it on aloharag.com, but it didn't look like the same sort of material-and it was sold out! but check it out anyway.. maybe u can back-order/reserve one. I'm already getting one in brown now.
