You are just such a gift to this world!! Every time you post I smile from ear to ear! Thank you for the words of love and support! Blue indigo kelly? Now THAT sounds spectacular! What leather? I had a blue indigo victoria in evercolor and it was such a beguiling, stunning color...so rich and deep. That bag got compliments in an H boutique once...I bet you love it and I know you wear it with effortless elan and great elegance!

Dear Hermezzy,
You make me smile from ear to ear, as well. My blue Indigo was purchased at FSH in 2015. (Long before one had to have a leather appointment or "camp out" at the store!) It is a 32 retourne ghw clemence leather. It has held up so well and is in constant rotation! In 2019, I spilled coffee on it while getting out of my car. I took a damp paper towel and wiped it off very gently. No sign of a stain, what-so-ever. Our H is meant to be used and loved. If accidents occur, I find togo and clemence to be such durable leathers!
Enjoy your wonderful bags!
P.S. I LOVE blue hydra! Your GP is spectacular!!!!

Ooooooo the purchase experience for that k32 must have been just exquisite at the FSH! Every time I'm there I feel myself teleported to another universe, where the world is better... And that bag in clemence must be just ravishing!!! Is there a pic of it on here somewhere? :)

I agree! H is meant to be used and worn!! That is why the craftspeople spend so much time creating for durability and why there's an after sales service. "Luxury is that which is meant to be repaired"....so true, so true!

I love most all H blues but blue hydra mesmerized me from the beginning. Now I see that H has created a color called "new blue hydra". I simply must see that in person sometime to see how the color has evolved!!!

Now for the new arrival...
I've been collecting H for a long time but one bag has eluded me...a HAC. As @r luvs h @navicular @QuelleFromage @averagejoe know I've been contemplating and asking for thoughts about this bag for a bit. Well, I finally took the bait and what is below is the result...my first ever HAC...a 40 VERSO in bleu nuit togo and colvert chevre inside! At first I couldn't quite trust the description...I've had bleu nuit items and one can see the blue pretty clearly, at least from certain angles. With this bag it is almost not there. I didn't actually think this was bleu nuit bec it is so dark, but it does have the midnight blue stitching that @r luvs h has pointed out comes w/bleu nuit. That said, this has to be the darkest batch of bleu nuit togo in the H workshops, because it seems more like caban or another darker blue to me. I'm not complaining. I gasped when I first saw the bag in person. It is truly stunning and I just can't get over the fact that I found a verso HAC, which I've never seen before. It came w/the plastic still on the stickers. I've included pics with them on and now removed, as well as a pic with my new white samorga bag organizer inside too :smile: Now here's some more interesting news....

such a stunning HAC! so happy for you to join the club, my new friend :flowers:. I hope you get as much use out of the HAC as I do with mine, they really are sturdy, uncommonly seen and handsome bags.

But don't think for a minute Hermezzy is all about formality because the below is what you'll find me wearing, 9 times out of 10, if you ring my doorbell! A tank and swishy shorts and this boy is happy! haha What do you think? Does the HAC hang pretty well w/all of these different looks?

You are so wonderful! I don’t think I would have gotten this hac had it not been for your pictures over the years with yours on here!

Ooooo I bet that dogon cardholder you almost got in bleu nuit was stunning…Ive never seen one in that color and it would have been amazing in evercolor!!! I still am not completely sold that my hac is blue nuit - it is just such a dark leather batch, if so- but I can tell it isn’t quite black and the mystery/ambiguity is beguiling.

I do find that the samorga helps A LOT. I wondered if I should perhaps try to find a bag pillow (or even bubble wrap, like you). I have to admit- I like how the felt/leather hacs always stand tall…but then I definitely also like how the leather ones slouch. Lol. I guess I’m indecisive but I definitely wouldn’t store the bag without at least something in there. I really do like this samorga though…sometimes their 2mm felt organizers are a little too much for smaller bags (I tend to prefer softer designs like 7rp or maitai) but for this large imposing bag it is great.

What I’m still considering are bag charms/decoration. This bag looks somehow complete without any but I am considering one of the H mirror bag charms (narcisse clochette or the round ones in madame) or naybe a luggage tag so there’s at least some functionality. Or, if i got a rodeo I think i’d want a monochromatic one. I’m still considering and looking around lol. I definitely could not “Jane Birkinify” this bag….adding all that extra weight and having lots of extra stuff dangling would be an inconvenience in a travel situation, I think….

The felt HAC is a bit puffy. I like how it's lighter (and the texture in contrast to the leather) but I like the bag profile to be a bit slimmer, so I have been storing my felt HAC completely empty (I removed the big bubble wrap that came with it) in hopes that it would deflate. In contrast, I keep the original big bubble wrap in my Togo HAC when it is in storage because I don't want it to lose structure.

There are some Rodeo charms online now on Hermes' Canadian website that aren't sold out. Seems to be a good time to get a Rodeo charm without having to wait to be offered one at the boutique.

Wow! The McQueen shirt is really nice, and goes amazingly with the rest of your look! Your tank top and shorts look is somehow going with it too. Would you pair your look with Hermes Chypres sandals?
