Balenciaga specials

Balenciaga is set to open two new stores inside the Paris department store Printemps this month, one on the accessories floor and the other in the designer department. French Vogue reports that to commemorate the occasion, designer Nicolas Ghesquiere has produced a limited edition collection of seven classics ranging from stretch jeans to a striped version of its Classique bag. Shame they only come in gray and black - I much prefer the bag in hot red or canary yellow, à la Nicole Richie!
