RIP Leila. She had brought so much joy in her artistic endeavours for Hermes, allowing many people to dream of things that they have yet to achieve! A life well-lived!

And beautiful CW at that!

I think so, too. My favorite way to wear it is with a white t-shirt and jeans/khakis.

Thank you. The pink colorway is stunning as well. If it wouldn't be too much trouble, can you post a pic? Pretty please?

Here you go!
