Default Colour matching ?

Is this a potential shopping problem ?

Should your Hermès match your car, or should it be the other way around?

PS: Unfortunately it's not my SLK, but it ought to be

The car I could give or take...but that bag is dreamy...
I think the car needs a young handsome driver to complete the whole look.

Here's my HAC32 in Blue France courchevel from 1993.

She needs to go to spa urgently, but we are finding it hard to part....

I can certainly comprehend your feelings of being apart with it, such a beautiful bag. The colour is amazing! (And this is coming from a non-blue fan).

Thanks MsPiggy (and thanks for making my pics bigger, don't know how to do this?).

After hitting the BIN I went to NY to pick her up at a friends place. I had to ship her there initially, because of the high import tax over here (Sweden). Then my friend pulls out a beautiful scarf from her drawers, which she bought 15 years ago on a flea market for $1! And a perfect colour match too! The scarf has finally found it's home, she thinks, lucky me

I don't know anything about this scarf/pattern/year, maybe someone could enlighten me, please ? TIA

MrsVintage, bag and scarf were made at the same time! ( well, you know that...) but duh...it took me half a beat to process this. I love them both! And, goodness, I don't see why Ms Birkin needs to be parted from you, just yet.

She looks very very lovely! ( and so does that gorgeous scarf!!) Did it take long to find a car to match?

Congrats to you. Didn't know it was a new-to-you bag. Blue France is just so intense. And the perfect scarf to go with it.

Oh wow. I think my heart just skipped a beat when I saw her. I have been feeling blue (no pun intended), but I think I am a little bit happier after seeing your lovely hac. Thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks isus.
This perfectly matched Merc was overtaking us and we managed to park next to it, as we had the same boring hardware store as destination. Then the pic was hard to resist!

Still, she is a little dry on the edges and some corner wear, so spa will do her good. Later
