The Balenciaga Thread (June 2003 - February 2009)

Do you think I could wear the marine w/ black clothing and not look stupid? It's my favorite color for Spring 07 but I wear jeans, black heels or boots, or black tops 80% of the time and I'm worried that it will not be a flattering combination.

Are there any other pictures of the naturel yet other than the one on atelier.naff b/c that may be my second choice. I can't decide. :/

[abbyroad]

Me, too. I wear my ink day bag with black all the time. I love navy and black together.

i'm wondering.. how are the new 2007 bbag leathers compared to the 06 and 05?

 

[Victoria98]

Okay, that makes me feel much better. I have a hard time seeing things in my head sometimes. Thanks ladies!

I want it!!!!!

I wanted a Balenciaga Work before.. but I always thought it's too big for an everyday bag.. and now that I see this one.. I think it looks just fine!! Last year I got my Balenciaga City.. now I want another one.. the Work!!! HAHA

Glamour--I have the work, the one in the pix is the weekender...looking at the bag to the girl, proportionally, it's too big. Looks good on her but on me, it's really huge.

 

[just_me]

thank you kimair!

Wow, that weekender is huge, but the girl kinda pulls it off.

 

[G86]

glamourbebe - i think the weekender is HUGE for everyday use. but the work is perfect. which colour is that weekender? is it the new 07 red?

 

[glamourbebe]

Yeah i think it's the 07 red.. and thanks guys for the opinion.. the one i want is the "work".. for some reason i just thought that red one is the work.. now that i know it's the weekender.. i'm definitely sure i'll get the work!!

thanks for the pics elise!!

The cobalt looks pretty in the lvr swatch, almost like the 05 turcoise. It's very tempting but maybe too similar since I have a turcoise classique.. It looks so differnt in the 2 pics of it on ateliernaff and the lvr pic, I wonder which is true to life.

thanks esile..
