Makes me want to stop spending money on the "it " bags and save for the real deal....no more Spy, Vuitton blue jean fabric, B bag, etc...etc...yup, I have them all and tons more.....and guess what...after two months...they go to the back of the closet.....but not the Hermes....
I couldn't agree more. A colleague of mine (a real baghag) kept telling me that she can't justify the amount of $$$ for a Kelly. I told her that the $$$ she splurged on three "IT" bags would have gotten her a fabulous & timeless Kelly :smile:
 
So glad that you all enjoyed this this long but interesting article.

I'm with you, gigi. Yesterday I went to NM to manhandle some of the "It" bags. While I understand the appeal, I didn't the pursegasm (that's right, PURSEGASM) I always get with Hermes.
 
Great article! Thanks so much! It reminds me of the fact that having great taste has so very little to do with having a lot of money! and also that what we love about Hermes is the romance! (N'est Pas?)
