Hermes Crocodile Lindy

Hermes Crocodile Lindy

I have gone back and forth on the decision of the Hermes Lindy. The fact is, I love the bag but was not sure it is for me. My SA has had me try it on before and as I have been speaking with my SA we have realized that my next purchase should be a Lindy. The Hermes Lindy has become a house favorite as it offers a more casual feel with every sophisticated touch Hermes is known for. The Lindy features a double sided compartment for ease of separation and use, along with a center that collapses in while being carried. Last week in Saks Vlad and I saw a woman wearing a casual sundress paired with a Graphite Lindy. Everything about her outfit and look was perfect, and the Lindy truly finished it off! While I meticulously pick which color is good for me, I still have a dream Lindy, my holy-grail of Lindy's. The Hermes Crocodile Lindy is what I call 100% drool worthy. Matte crocodile from the house of Hermes is divine, as it ages it develops the perfect gloss. The Lindy above is graphite 30 Lindy in ultra-supple matte niloticus crocodile. I can not control my love of the handbag when I see it, for every part of me wants it. But the closest I will get to that bag now is in my dreams, because the price is out of my budget. So while I carefully pick my next Hermes bag purchase, I will continue to yearn for the 'too-expensive-right-now' Hermes Crocodile Lindy. The price of leather Lindy's range in the $5,000's while the price of the Crocodile Lindy, well, as much as I want to know I also don't want to know. Inquire at your local Hermes boutique.

Finally an Hermes' bag that I like! Please don't pelt me with rocks ladies, but I've never been a big fan of the structured look of the Birkin and Kelly bags. This however, looks to be more unstructured and casual. I like, I like

. Especially in the exotic leather!

This bag is too weird looking for me, I never cared for it and never will probably. The leather doesen't seem to make any difference. Sorry!

I like how the Lindy looks when it is carried on the shoulder particularly. How does the croc wear on a Lindy, since it is more malleable??

It is lovely. I love it.

gacats · Jun 12th, 2008, 08:12 AM

I'd like to see how this looks while being worn. I'm having a hard time visualizing it.

I love the unique style of the bag and ofcourse black is the classic one to have. Goes with everything. And again the price is way too much at this point for me

I've always wanted an Hermes, but this isn't the one I'm lusting over.

gloss_gal · Jun 12th, 2008, 11:15 AM

I like the style. Can I wear it over the shoulder and with the two handles.

The Lindy always looked awkward to me, even more in dark colors. The shape is not for me and the black somehow makes it boring.

I'm sure it's a nice bag, it's Hermes. But I dont like the way it collapses in the middle. No biggy...i cant afford this one anyway.

Lady Chinadoll · Jun 17th, 2008, 12:39 PM

seems kinda awkward to hold?
