Which Bal City combo do you prefer? - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

Arianne12 · October 6th, 2008, 07:03 PM

I'd like to get one eventually...hopefully for my birthday in January. I know it's while away, but it's something to look forward to!

Which colour/hardware combo do your prefer?

And can anyone tell me how heavy the GH City is? I don't like heavy bags.

Well, I am more of a RH girl BUT I LOVE the SGH one these colors as well. Now, I have never owned a GH Bbag so I can't tell you about the weight difference BUT I have heard it IS heavier than the RH for sure. The RH bags are practically weightless.

Personally I love the sapphire with gold hardware. It is so striking. This is my next purchase, come December.
The GH hardware isn't that heavy. It looks heavy but it really isn't.

I LOVE the RH best...it's simple - which I like!

I love the Midnight / Navy color --- of course in the Giant Silver Hardware!

Jiezell · October 6th, 2008, 07:49 PM

^ I agree with Jen. That would be my choice of combo!

Arianne12 · October 6th, 2008, 07:51 PM

I kinda like the RH Navy or even Marine as well. So I'm adding this. Sorry, just mucked up my own poll. But I think the blue is a bit more neutral and RH can be dressed down?

The first one... it's stunning!!!

This one gets my vote!!

Midnight/navy hands down!

seahorseinstripes · October 6th, 2008, 10:35 PM

sapphire with RH... i'm not crazy about the GH honestly

Arianne12 · October 7th, 2008, 01:03 AM

Thanks, girls for your comments so far! Keep 'em coming. I think I'm leaning towards RH but not sure which colour. I love the sapphire, but I love the midnight too. I like the 07 Marine as well. I think the blue would go with most of my clothes as I'm not planning to get a Bal in every colour. I wish!

But the sapphire would be a pop of colour. But the blue will be more subtle... I'm just thinking aloud.

Zombiegirl · October 7th, 2008, 07:52 AM

I know what you mean Arianne! I love the Sapphire, I mean LOVE it, but I would choose the Marine over it (sapphire) because I think it is more of a neutral, but not the typical black or brown. Does that make sense?

Marine/Navy is at the top of my list for a Bal!!

Good luck!
