I found this pic that I've never seen before, thought I'd post



The shoulder strap and shape makes me think it's the classique, but then this girl must be a GIANT

^ no way that's a classique
I wonder what it is ?
Maybe fake?
that's Hye Park a model by the way

thanks all...i highly recommend magenta the transfer of color from my dark denim jeans isn't too bad and it's faint as i tried rubbing it off w/ my finger. what's been happening is the bottom of the hobo rubs against my hip when i walk

hope you're enjoying your rouge twiggy, jelly!

thanks socal for the tip!

It's a mini Twiggy. They might be special editions or holiday collection bags? I've only ever seen them in metallics. Though I really like the idea of her being a giant.

odd, I missed your hobo! I need to stop hanging out here too... I've not been crazy about the current hobo style, but when I see those big swaths of amazing color, it's hard to resist.

yeah that is a mini twiggy. i've seen one before at the barneys outlet. but the one i saw was the metallic orange one. it's super small! i believe it was like $900 something which is wayyyy too much for such a tiny bag.

socal - i love your collection!
odd - great pic of the magenta.
hikarupanda & greendrv - congrats on your newly purchased. i really like the black twiggy!

Where did you find the calcaire twiggy?

[bijin]

hikaru, congrats on your first B bag and pretty color too!

Odd, I love the magenta! No doubt about it!

Socal, great collection! what sizes do you have? I can't seem to figure out from the picture.

green, your twiggy looks gorgeous! I don't know why I can't fall in love with my magenta twiggy. I the color though! I might sell it but I'll give it a few more day! I know there's so many of you twiggy lovers....but I guess I like bigger bags better.

Yes, I got my twiggy from Browns a few days ago and will post pictures as soon as I get a good one!

Using 2-3 different bags each week and having so much fun with color (trying not to think too much about whether I need to incorporate additional styles, e.g. twiggy?). I tried Chloe, Lanvin, and Fendi briefly this season before Balenciaga. Nothing feels as perfect to me as the b-bags...

beautiful collection. I agree...something just special about these bbags. nothing compares!
