Your Hermes in action

La Vanguardia · Oct 23rd, 2006, 05:53 PM

24 - Guess what? I've been dying to have a mannequin at home to help me figure out my outfit!!!

Maybe I should get a child-size mannequin with boobs to be proportional with my height!

Geez, GT, I won't call that a "mom" uniform. You look chic - as always. You put me to shame. My mom outfit is (I hear you groan) my tattered Juicy Couture sweatsuit. Well, a leopard can't change its spots

24, I

that Barenia Evelyne.

GT= Hot mama!!! Wow, that Birkin...talk about the bag of my dreams!

orchids · Oct 23rd, 2006, 05:59 PM

^^LaVan, you are so funny! I love your outfits btw!
^^Pazt & 24--Thanks for the props--made my day--esp. as I sit here fresh from the gym with no makeup in track pants--I think deep down in my soul I am a Berkeley-ite.

24, PBC, Ninjasue, Moviegirl, Greentea, and NHL--and anyone I may have missed--you guys look awesome--er, 24...your mannequin looks awesome. Great styling! Darn it, just when I resigned myself to exchanging my Evelyne for something else....that Barenia Evelyne is incredible.

And GT...you look esp. awesome in your mom uniform!

I love this thread!

M, i love this new outfit you just posted! so classic! and that kelly is perfect on you!

i don't think i can carry a 25 kelly - i would look so HUGE next to it!

hermesgroupie · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:01 PM

Gosh, I'd put pics up, but I'd be a black blur.

24, Faubourg · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:04 PM

You ladies are SOOOO kind! Thanks so much! GT & birkingal, who are longtime cyber/pursepals of mine know how UN-creative I am w/ my clothes, so I appreciate all the sweet words!

GT, lovely great pumpkin. How about a pic w/ your gorgeous Rouge H Trim?

pazt, I'll try to post more pics once my daughter stops hanging onto my leg! BTW, your outfits look fabulous. Lots of WOW factor!

LaVan, I got my cheapie mannequin via eBay for only $20!

You get what you pay for. Sometimes mine falls over. LOL I should invest in a better quality mannequin. Since you're so much more creative than me, this is probably essential for you!

La Vanguardia · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:04 PM

orchids & pazt - The 25cm Kelly that I wear is a physical sign of how small I am!!!

If only I had 3 inches more in height!

24, Faubourg · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:06 PM

HG, LOL! Believe me, that's me IRL, too. What I posted earlier is actually dressy for me, another NoCA girl like orchids and shopmom!

I'll check out e-bay then ... maybe I'll also hang-out outside of stores and beg for a mannequin lol!!!

Too bag H mannequins are enormously tall and so not proportional to my size, otherwise, I'll beg my store manager to give me some left-over mannequins!!!

birkingal · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:09 PM

24, that's how I'd dress up my scarf - with a crisp white or black shirt. Uncreative, my a$$! The combinations are stunning. Glad to see you're no longer wearing that infamous grey dress of yours.

I was thinking along the same lines. I've got baby trailing behind me the whole time so I can't take any "modelling" shots now.

orchids · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:10 PM

^^Ditto for me. I got gussied up for you guys. Actually I used to wear black wool so much my friends likened me to a black lamb. Nice eh?

LaVan--all your bags are perfectly proportioned to you. I love them. Like PazT, I don't think I could pull off a 25cm Kelly--even a 28cm would be a stretch unless I'm carrying it for evening.

Meh! Meh!

Mmm, I'm not sure if that sounded like a lamb!

Just kidding!

crochetbella · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:41 PM

Here's a couple more. Casual and more casual.

Greentea · Oct 23rd, 2006, 06:46 PM

Thanks, guys!!
Crochet, I think seeing your pics has sealed it for me on the evelyne pm. So fab!!

Birkingal, you could wear a potato sack and look amazing toting your gorgeous and SUPERE RARE Birkin!!!
