Hi everyone!!

I have the day off, so I made my way down to Bal NY (for those of you that have never been to NY, 22nd and 11th is at the opposite ends of the world from 85th and 1st), so I've only been there twice...
Anyway, the SA was very nice and kept showing me different bags...in the end I got 2 of the ones that I wanted... The BG Pink City and the Black Day!!
Here are some pics I hope they came out ok...

One of my new BG Pink Work, Black Day, then both with my new Pale Magenta Coin Purse, the BG Pink work with my Violet Flat Clutch and the last one is the BG Pink and my 05 Indigo City...

Fabulous colors BethC! I especially love the indigo city and the violet GSH clutch!

Here is my 'spy-cam' pic from a recent trip to Saks... the Vert Thym is fantastic IRL!

I posted this in the "What did you get for Xmas" thread and then realized , there's a Balenciaga thread (I think I'm still a little "delicate" from all that celebrating). Anyway, here's my new Day in grey flannel/nut brown leather...

Oops, meant to also say BethC you have a lovely collection

Thank you! The indigo was my first Bal Bag...it will always be my baby.
The Violet clutch apparently was so rare that the SAs in the Bal NY store had never seen one... I love it.

bethC;

all your bags look great!! i am loving the purple envelope with giant hardware

hebden,

congrats on your bag too . it is very unusual... i never saw it before

 

[calim00nchild]

but no one has spotted any Violet anywhere recently? I live in the UK now but am in NY for the holidays s

Go to the Balenciaga store in Chelsea. I was there last week and they had lots. Most of the stuff is in the back and you have to ask for it though. I feel in love with the marine blue color and they had 4 bags in it, in the back.

Beautiful new Balenciagas! Never saw the flannel ~ it's perfect!

 

[Ciao Bella]

FYI ladies..Just recieved a call from Bal NY...the 08 Pale Magenta GSH Work has landed....

 

[DriversHigh]

what a beautiful bag hebden...


do you sleep with it? the flannel looks soft enough to

 

[BethC]

Ok, I went back to BalNY today, I know, I'm out of control... I wanted a weekender, but I decided it was too big, so I got an Ocean Work and an 06 LT Grey first! I was surprised that they had one. They didn't have any violet, I specifically asked my SA. I'll post pic tomorrow.

i came across this picture and it makes me sad i think it's a real balenciaga no? was it white or was it in calcaire? i don't know but i would never do this to my balenciaga.

I figured that came from cobra snake.It looks cool I guess ,but I wouldn't do that to a balenciaga.

 

[BethC]

Here are my new babies...and a comparison of my Indigo city w/my new Ocean work...
