Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Thank you all!!!

Too cute. I forgot to look for those when shopping from your earlier hedgehog reveal.

Anyone buy a bag to rehab?

Just bought one (a Stam), it was really inexpensive and figured I can only make it better. Looked like a fun thing to try out. Basically the leather looks worn and the Hardware needs a little polishing.

Sounds like fun. Can't wait to see how that turns out.

I have been so MIA this month, Christmas time is so busy for us, plus the flu has been making its rounds through my family, which is just unpleasant, but I just wanted to quickly stop by and say I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday and a very Merry Christmas!! I have enjoyed this thread so much this year and I am looking forward to 2015 with you all


Bake I hope you have an amazing trip and I am so excited to see your haul in the New Year
Looking forward to 2015!!

Jenny, so sorry to hear the family has been sick. I hope everyone is feeling better.

Dropping by to say....


I'm in London! Haha. And I'm dressed to fit in and be nice and warm because it can get windy.


And....

I GOT IT. I HAVE MY HERMES BAG!

DBF wanted to go to Selfridges for his suit attire, so I dropped by that Hermes. I do not recommend the male Asian SA. Totally judging me and even had the audacity to smirk and simply say "we don't carry the Evelyne"

Wait what. I said Evelyne. There was one behind him.

So I waited for DBF to finish browsing and made a beeline for New Bond Street.

love, love love this boutique. Crowded but acknowledged the moment I walked in. Went upstairs and waited my turn for an SA and I asked for exactly what I wanted. The small Evelyne, 29, in orange.

And the nice SA took a look in her computer then went searching in all the storage. When she came back from the bottom floor storage, I got giddy.

I have my Evelyne. I'm so happy. It's gorgeous. I tried it on and I was beaming in the mirror. Even the SA said "you've been looking, haven't you?" And I nodded and told her about what happened at Selfridges. Then mentioned it was the first Hermes bag I fell in love with and have been wanting to buy it in London.

Then DBF decided to buy my 2015 year gift, royal blue clic h.

I'll be on the lookout for his 2015 year gift. We haven't even picked up our Christmas gifts haha. We'll do that tomorrow after a few museums.

I'll do a reveal back home. Despite activating Internet for my phone it's seriously being a pain.

But I just wanted to share my excitement!

Bake, so, so awesome! Finding it immediately is a sign it was meant to be. I am very happy for you. Can't wait for your reveals and everything else about your trip.

Update: Someone else bought the Chanel bag before I was confident enough about its authenticity. Thank you all for your suggestions and support, and especially AmorNChanel.
It was not meant to be this time.

Tuuli, I am more than happy to share any knowledge I can impart. So sorry that it didn't work out. I am sure another one will present itself to you.

 

[AmorNChanel]

I was on a mission. I told DBF no attractions when we fly in (I always anticipate flight delays, so I don't book anything except a chauffeur lol.)

Yay! It takes forever to post pictures but I'll keep trying.

DBF a brought his office tree so we could have one for the holidays lol.

A sneak peek. 😍😍 love the pic and your tree. I did the same last year when we were in Cancun during Christmas. It made me feel better and the presents under the tree were ginormous compared to the tree. Nothing wrong with that though. 😉

Wait, you really can have a hedgehog as a pet? How cute!

Haha! Dream bag + favorite city + potential price increase = insane determination. Haha. I was weaving in and out of the crowd to get to the store.

Lol...I would have totally done the same.

I've been carrying my Burberry bag. It's pockets are perfect for my small things like mints and my mobile charger.

The zip pocket fits my epi pocket agenda and all the coins (which are so heavy!) so everything is secure.

And it goes perfectly under my Barbour jacket. Highly recommend this brand as its bitter cold and I'm not feeling it with this coat.

More for under the tree!

Yeah more pressies. Ooh...Laudree. A keychain perhaps? Awesome pics. Is that a museum for 007? So cool.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas Eve and a very Merry Christmas! We have a Ukrainian feast with DHs family tonight, I am so excited for the Cabbage Rolls!!

Sounds awesome!!

 

[AmorNChanel]

It's raining here since last night, we even had a lightning today, so I was using my new MK bag for last minute shopping. It looks a bit boring but is one of the best rainy weather bags, water stays on surface, does not soak in and you can just wipe it off. Perfect.
Happy Holidays again!

Cute bag and adorable charm.

Finally finished the little ones hand prints. We do them every year so have to figure out different ideas. View attachment 2841509

Phew... Ok, christmas can come now.

Happy holidays ladies! Hope you all have a happy and healthy holiday!

Eeeek! I am in LOVE with your kiddo ornaments!! I am dying in cuteness.❤️❤️❤️

Merry Christmas everyone! Wishing all of you and your families a safe and happy holiday! Hope all of you get spoiled! xoxo

Your HK are adorable too!❤️❤️❤️

Looking forward to see what Santa brings everyone.

 

[Mimmy]

I hope everyone had a wonderful and restful day yesterday! No bags for me, but I did get an slg from H.

 

[bakeacookie]

Congrats bake! Finally! So happy for you! And your trip there makes me miss London too. It's been 6 years since I last visited and not sure when I can visit again so I'll just live vicariously through you Merry Christmas to you bake and to dbf as well!

Thank you! I feel like I come here often because of my family here. Lol. Possibility of just coming to the UK yearly. Haha.

Wow bake! Congrats on getting your dream bag! You've not been in London 24 hours when you got this? Can't wait for the reveal pics.

I was in London for like 6 hours. Haha.

Bake - seeing your insta photos it looks like you are having a blast! So happy for you guys. What a magical trip!!

Jenny - glad you and your family are feeling better. A cold ripped through our house, DH is the last to recover.

Soooo last minute... I am totally putting stuff off. Going home now to bake the last pie for our family dinner.

Thanks! It's been fun so far.

You are killing me bake; in a good way of course, lol!! I love everything you have shown us, and I'm sure you're not done yet!

The color is called electric blue and I think it's really fitting. It has a silk bolduc lining and zipper tab; hard to see in the pic. I had to google "bolduc". It means tape/ribbon, which makes sense because it's looks like the H box ribbons!

I got a H scarf too, I'm working on an outfit to wear it with.

I'm searching for bolduc themed scarves! There was a twilly I saw a long time ago, and the SA was wearing one, but silly me didn't ask. You must post the lining when you get a chance!

Definitely not done yet. Haha. There's still two weeks left for me here, and I have to pick up gifts for others which leads to gifts for me. Haha

Heh,heh, ask and you shall receive! The stock pic is the best. If I do it myself, you'll mainly see my fingers!

London is such a beautiful city. But I wish it didn't rain much there. We have enough rain (or too much of it) here in PH so it was a blast that it was sunshiny when we were out and about in London (although it rained in Felixstowe where we started our UK visit).. Anyway, enough of my reminiscin', I just love your Christmas haul!! I've been wanting a Laduree keychain with the red ribbon like forever but hubby (who's always out of the country) isn't lucky enough to find one for me Keep the pictures coming bake! Take care and enjoy! ☺️

 

[Tuuli35]

My MK is nylon, the one I bought on Black Friday.

Mimmy - so pretty H SLG, love the color!

Thank you all for you kind words!
