Hello everyone!
I am back from my fabulous trip to Chicago. What a whirlwind I must say. The first stop I had to make was the Hermes store. Of course DH did not want to go. So~ I hailed a cab and set off, well wouldn't you know it. They were closed. Oh-well, at least I got to see where it was at.
The nest morning I was there right after they opened. I saw this fabulous SA and guess who he was?? Yes~ my SA that sold me my beautiful Kelly the week before and shipped her to me. He is FAB! I introduced myself and we hit it off immediately. We talked for at least an hour...He loves Harry Potter and when I received a text message (harry potter theme) it was kissmet! (sp?)..anywhooo We looked at a ton of stuff. I tried almost all the fragrences (none work for me, but I got DH some cologne).
There was a Birkin. It was a tan and canvas bag. Very chic, but concerning for stains. A lady came in and was thinking about buying it for Christmas for her daughter. (She can adopt me anytime).
He had a TON of kellys in the back. I asked to see etoupe, but she wasn't there....bummer...who knows, she maybe my next "H"...
he explained to me the difference between my kelly and the more boxy style. He explained that the literally take the bag and turn it inside out to stretch it. If anything, he said anything goes wrong at all..the bag is immediately destroyed. That is how my kelly got it's soft form. I learned quite a bit.
he gave me and my friend a tour of the store and I told him I would reccommend him to anyone. He was that sweet.
I bought refills for my new Blue Jean Vision Agenda and the cologne for my DH. I love the cologne..musky..like a man should be with a hint of leather. FAB!
I debated on a cadena..they have the dancing horse (silver), pegasus (gold/silver), Hippo (silver) and maybe one more...yes, the pelican (gold I think).
The Dragon Lady may be located in a boutique right down from the Hermes store. She was Horrible. She is a re-seller of authentic designer items and was the MOST rudest person I have EVER come accross. She accosted me and said "Why would you purchase a Hermes in THAT color?" I told her because I like it. She then said that It was NOT a color that would hold its value and that it would not resell well. I told her I intended to keep it. She then shook her head at me and told me I should have bought black and in the style of a contance. She was so rude...do not shop there. I know I won't. if she is reading this ... You need to be NICE to your customers!...That is what better business practice is all about!...You have now lost at least 2 potential customers..and maybe more when people read this. You were very RUDE to say the least. sad thing..her store is named one of the best by LUCKY Mag and others to frequent. She even bragged about making money off of others designer items.
having stated that ^^^..back to H~ I decided to hold off on more big purchases as I have spent quite a bit lately...but I had a great time.
Here is a pic of me (LEFT) and my friend..and "H" stuff
