Goyard Dark Blue: Is It Just Me, or Is It THE Color?
Okay, so, listen. Goyard. We all *know* Goyard, right? That iconic chevron print, the whole “quiet luxury” vibe… Yeah, yeah. But let’s be real for a sec. While everyone’s tripping over the classic black or that bright yellow, I’m here to tell you that the *real* MVP is dark blue. Seriously.
Like, I saw this Goyard Jouvence Toiletry Bag MM in Dark Blue on StockX the other day, and I almost choked on my coffee. A *toiletry bag,* people! But in that dark blue, it looked… sophisticated. Not just “I threw my toothbrush in a fancy bag” sophisticated, but like, “I’m about to hop on a yacht and my toiletries are living a better life than you” sophisticated. You feel me?
And then there’s the Saint Louis, of course. The *navy* Saint Louis. Like, the article said “authentic GOYARD Goyardine Villette Tote in Blue,” and I’m thinking, is “blue” even enough to describe it? It’s that *specific* shade of deep, inky, almost-black blue that makes you wanna just *sigh* contentedly. It just screams “I have my life together, even if I absolutely don’t.” (Which, let’s be honest, is most of us, right?)
I saw one on eBay too (Goyard Blue Bags & Handbags for Women), and there were *so* many different shades. It really shows how the brand has perfected using this color for their products.
The Bohème Hobo bag is another one that’s got me thinking. I’m not usually a hobo bag kinda gal, but that zip closure sounds pretty practical, and if it’s in dark blue? Suddenly, I’m reconsidering my whole stance on slouchy bags. (Maybe I’m just easily influenced by pretty things. Don’t judge.)
Okay, and this is where I get kinda rambling… I saw the “GOYARD Goyardine Artois PM Navy 1301604” listing and it struck me. It’s not *just* the color, it’s the way the dark blue plays with the Goyardine canvas. It makes the whole thing look… richer? Deeper? I dunno, man, I’m not an art critic, I just know what I like. And I *really* like dark blue Goyard.
Maybe it’s because I’m a sucker for anything nautical-themed. Maybe it’s because I think it goes with everything. Maybe it’s just ’cause I’m basic AF and secretly wanna be rich. Whatever the reason, dark blue Goyard is where it’s at.
