What a wonderful collection, Gingey! So much variety in terms of styles, but definitely a unified palette. And, yes, a green would be the perfect complement to the collection. I'm hoping for a rich wine or burgundy colour. Perhaps both of those next fall?!

Sybaryte · Dec 26th, 2008, 05:49 PM

Oh my, you've been a very busy girl! Good work.

chodessa · Dec 26th, 2008, 07:02 PM

Your collection is absolutely beautiful.... No need to mention HOW LONG I've been waiting to see your pics!! (oops, I just did!

)
Definitely worth the wait... I am drooling over that gorgeous Tracy clutch.. but every piece is phenomenal..

cherubicanh · Dec 26th, 2008, 07:04 PM

Gorgy collection! Great showcasing! I want to have a HH collection reminiscent of a rainbow. I LOVE COLOR!

jandelvis · Dec 26th, 2008, 07:51 PM

OOOOHHHH! AT LAST! and totally WORTH the WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My personal faves: the Lead Mimi, the Cordovan Wyeth, the Gaza with the cloud leather trim and the Floripa. And is that a cordovan clutch wallet?

Speaking of Wyeth, do you LOVE him or what?! I personally am right on board the fringe-loving train. Are you still thinking of a haircut for him?

Holy camoly!!!! The sonia in anthracite is TDF, the indigo patent havana.... YUM, violet patent crinkle wallet... divine! Wowzers, I don't even know all the other bags even though you listed them... your collection is incredible though!

MamaToJakers · Dec 26th, 2008, 08:59 PM

Wow, gingey!!! Gorgeous!!! What an amazing collection. I love it!!

missypoo · Dec 26th, 2008, 09:01 PM

Thanks for posting your HH collectioni Gingey!! They are all so beautiful!!

travelmom · Dec 26th, 2008, 10:33 PM

I have been oooohing and aahhhhing over your collection

and a little bit of drooling too LOL Thanks for sharing the pics. Everything looks so great!!! I can't wait for modelling shots!

I have a CBGB belt OTW, do find it to be extremely heavy? I am afraid it may pull my trousers down as I am losing weight right now and my pants are falling down as it is LOL

paelaf · Dec 26th, 2008, 10:44 PM

thanks you for posting your gorgeous pics! the floripa is so effing hot. honestly i thought it was hideous in the HH pics but the pics i've seen on here have been amazing. Also, the crinkle patent photographs so well. I am dying for that vcp clutch wallet--to match my havana! Congrats on your beautiful collection!

My bad though is that I didn't take before and after pics..newbie lesson learned LOL

Thanks for your nice words..I am waiting for my GZ Havana, my Lorca in Cordovan and the PM Toulouse Clutch that I snagged as well as today's purchase of the matching PM wallets and satchel..

Better than Lay's potato chips..I can't just get one..and thank you

HH

angels for allowing me to add to my collection.

WOW You did an awesome job!! The Lay's potato chip analogy is perfect LOL! I love the Oyster Tharpe, you just did beautifully! I also did get the matching PM wallet and satchel. TWINS!!

Thanks again for posting all of your gorgeous pics!!!

Gingey your collection is gorgeous!! So many beautiful bags and accessories! The oyster Tharpe in its pearlescent loveliness especially caught my eye. What a terrific job you did to restore it!

I am everso tempted by those cuff bracelets and all the raves that they receive. One of these days I will take the plunge. I am just waiting for a blowout sale price.

Stormy Heart · Dec 27th, 2008, 02:05 AM

Gingery, you did good ! talk about a HH catch-up collection, whew ! You may have set a new record ! I'm actually glad Tharpe was restored and didn't require cover-ups after all. Sometimes, less is more. And your beauties tell a story about you, when they are all gathered this way........

Kibby · Dec 27th, 2008, 02:29 AM

lovely collection gingey!!
I want your mocha/chalk Gaza satchel!

ooh, and nice to hear about your 'rehabbed' oyster Tharpe -- wish you did take before/after pics so we can all ooh and ahh over it

h82bl82 · Dec 27th, 2008, 07:30 AM

Nice collection Gingey. Finally got our internet back up and running and as usual, I feel like I've missed an entire day of my life.

Glad to see your cuffs in there. I sure like my Ruby Celine but managed to get it water spotted right away. The danger of cooking while wearing something lovely. I plan to collect more cuffs in the future.
