One of my absolute favorite websites to browse is Hermes. The design and clever interaction and photos on that web site somehow mixes the perfect dose of fun while staying classic and elegant. The website shows that Hermes wants you to enjoy their brand, and enjoy we do.

While their site brought many fun ideas and photos, the shopping was lacking. Yesterday when I found myself lost in the web world of Hermes I found they have extended the amount of leather handbags they have listed. And now you can buy one of my favorite everyday chic Hermes bags from their website, the Hermes Evelyne.

I have always loved the Evelyne. The long shoulder strap makes this bag work well as a shoulder bag or cross-body bag. There is a perforated leather H plaque on the front of the bag. Many people that are thinking to delve into the world of Hermes but not sure where to start, this would be a good place. The price of the smaller size, the PM, is $2,450. While that is not inexpensive, for Hermes it is a very reasonable price for a leather handbag. There is also a GM version which is larger for $2,750. The leather is clemence which is super supple grained leather and will wear beautifully with time (same leather as my new black Birkin).

To be honest, seeing that they have Raisin, a very coveted deep purple hue, I am itching to buy the Evelyne now as well. I must remind myself of my recent purchase and hold back. Buy through Hermes online.

I like the Hermes Kelly. I'm on the fence when it comes to the Birkin. But this Evelyne one I don't get. I like the leather and the flawless construction, but I don't like the bag.

This is not one of my favorites from Hermes.

Kelly is by far much more interesting and wearable.

Hermes is extremely overrated IMO. And those are just plain ugly.

ITA. These bags are just boring. The only bags that really wows me from the H department is the Kelly, Birkin and the Birkin-style clutches. That's it. The rest of their bags are blah and dull.

Well I would wear one of these. I think it's a great travel crossbody bag, not to mention it's an Hermes.
