Hermes in Venice, Italy

Megs · May 22nd, 2007, 04:24 PM

A few steps away from Louis Vuitton was the Hermes Venice, Italy store. While my Hermes collection merely contains a handful of scarves, Twilly's, and a beautiful bracelet, I am on the hunt for a Birkin. The Hermes store in Venice is quaint, but still packs a big punch. Downstairs are all of the scarves, bracelets, and small goods, while upstairs there was clothing and of course, glorious bags. A lovely SA showed me around and delighted my arm with a Blue Jean Hermes Lindy, which I had a really hard time passing up. The only reason I opted not for the Lindy was for the sheer fact that I am anxiously waiting for a Hermes Blue Jean Birkin with Palladium Hardware. Insert drool here. A handful of Kelly's were spotted here and there which still made my heart skip a few beats. Vlad stood nearby nervously twitching and hoping that I would not give in and/or try to make him give in. We left empty handed, but still whole-heartedly satisfied. In the store front window, a breathtaking Hermes Kelly in Orange Swift tantalized every passerbys eyes. Hopefully, next time I am in Venice, I can walk into Hermes with my own Birkin in hand.

Vlad twitching, I got a funny visual just now!

You guys had the trip of a lifetime! I am so jealous, yes, I admit it.

To leave H empty handed, girl, that took some major willpower and strength!

Love that kelly. Boy, you have some restraint... more than I would!

Venice is lovely, isn't it? My favorite city ever! My DH and I went there on our honeymoon!

I really hope you two took a gondola ride... it's touristy, but it's not to be missed, especially if you have gondolier who can sing!
