No no no, I didnt get any Hermes or anything, but today I went to get my bj birkin from the consignment shop (long story, I thought it was sold, but the supposed buyer backed out at the last minute or so), and I saw a few birkins and kellys there.. 2 of them attracted my attention big time..
Both of them are 35 cms, so of course, they are out of the question for me. I posed with them in front of the mirror and I looked ridiculous!
1st one is a chocho with fuchsia piping made from box leather with silver h/w, just like birkinbaby's and hermesbb's. It was strikingly beautiful, and I caressed the smooth box leather and it felt marvelous. I closed my eyes and tried to imagine how pretty it would be in the 30 cm size. I kept asking the SA about it, but she kept saying it def looked to big on me.. I made a mental note at that time that I def want one just like that in the 30 size. I went as far as calling my friend who lives in NY and asked him (yes, he's male!) to go to Hermes and put his name down on the birkin waitlist and ask the SA to order a chocho box birkin with fuchsia piping for me! :shame:
2nd one is a thalassa blue box with silver h/w. Excellent condition, a big sister to mine. I thought to myself, hmmm.. if i can pull on the 35, I dont mind owning 2 thalassas, LOL.. I was pretty suprised, coz that thalassa birkin has been in that shop for like weeks. Maybe thalassa isnt so popular where I am.
I also saw a 28 souple bj togo kelly. It was the 1st time I ever saw a 28, and I must say, it looked tiny. Perhaps the fact that it was a souple style also made it look smaller?
Oh, and I also saw a tricolor kelly, but I didnt touch it, I only saw it from afar.. I think it was vert anis, choco, and cant remember the other color.. something orangey perhaps..
I was like a kid in a candy store surrounded with these birkins and kellys. The SAs there were very nice, they know I love to play around with these bags, posing with them in front of the mirror..
And so, that was my story for today.. I had fun!
