I was studying the Parchmain leather swatch in Togo and Clemence and was thinking to myself if I should give this new colour a try in AW2007. Very tempted but my SA looked hard at me, and asked if I was sure. The dreamy MrsS snapped right out of her dream and decided not to look at it again. :sweatdrop: Too high maintenance.

i have a JPG shoulder birkin which i usually take out during summer/spring - *knock on wood* - so far no disasters!

i also have a white clemence/toile kelly, that as soon as i carried it on the second day - i left dark smudges on the toile part of the bag. so off it went to H in Beverly Hills for some cleaning. to my understanding, if you soiled the white leather part - it will be sent to Paris. not just any local H store like NY or BH! so, keep that in mind.

Hermes Junkie, if you're really sure you are ready for a light coloured bag, wait for Parchmain. It has a tinch of cream in it, which is very nice.

Please don't say that...

I bought mine before the mention of yellowing and color transfer...:sad:

I have found I rarely use it because of such...
and am very very careful...

What is wrong with your Bolide? How old is it?

THIS is just the problem I have with anything white......I'm super careful with my Bleu Marine/Toile Kelly and so far so good and I use that bag a LOT but if I had anything completely white, I'd be a basket case with worry.

i would say just enjoy the white bolide and stop worrying about it looking dingy? Sometimes, I am guilty of imaging that things looked dirty etc. That is why I hesitated for a long while before I got my white birkin. Now there's no looking back. I am careful with my bags, not just the white ones.

Will H dye a white bag a darker color?

No, I asked this question to my SA, as I was dreaming about a white epsom bag, she told me, it will turn yellow and not in a uniform way...

I asked if they can dye the bag, she said no, all color dyes had to be done before the "treatment" or something and cannot be re-dyed into another color. So me, just like MrsS, had to snap out of that white/cream/beige dream too hard to maintain. :flowers:
