And the tie is very fun, but I must say I am just not a Hermès tie girl, for the most part, so I don't always appreciate them as much as I should, especially in this company. :: Now a Charvet tie. . . swoon.
Congratulations on your purchases, veeleigh! I love Aux Portes but I can't wear it nearly as well as you do. (DH and I have a similar policy, but usually for us it's just sort of co-enabling...)
