don’t reach out to this bag much these days. I’m not sure if it’s the color, but sometimes I feel like it makes my belly looks huge. The other Constances dosnt seem to have this issue

If you don’t mind my saying so, IMO, the stunning bleu paon is very slimming (as far as one can say a bag is slimming). I think for two reasons. The bright color draws the eye across the body, so the wearer looks very lean. And second, bc it’s such a gorgeous, tropical color, it makes me think thin, active people wear it. :)

6. The ombré lizard Constance
A random afternoon during the pandemic, my sa summoned me to visit the store for the ombré Constance. I had originally requested her look out for me for an ombré b or k, but a Constance , had me pondering. Weary of the pandemic conditions I was very hesitant to take a 6 hours flight for a bag. Rare and all, but it’s a Constance, if it was a B or k. I will fly there in a heartbeat. My sa sensed my hesitation, said she will check if she can sweeten the deal for me with her manager and get back to me. It was the longest 2 days ever.

She finally texted back and told me she can offer me a birkin with. Of course, given I spend. I took time off work right away and booked tickets. This was my first time flying during the pandemic, I was super nervous

The Constance went on a hike the day after. I remember I fellow tpfer posting about cost per use of an Hermes’ bag. It resonated with me

And a modelling pic.

To date it’s one of my most used Constance. Like a daily workhorse. It can transform well from day to night

It can also double as a necklace; that’s why I like the Constance so much

7. The blue paon alligator Constance
I remember one year, looking at the le monde there was this beautiful roulis alligator that was in the print. It was truly breathtaking. I mentioned it to my sa that it was gorgeous, even brining in the magazine with me. She did magic for me, little did I know, several months later, I got the call to visit for something I like. I was worried she was calling for me to buy a leather jacket that I tried on that was too small for me that I said look great. To my relief, when she opened the box. It was love at first sight

Here’s mr blue paon, with two other beautiful croc babies. This was the first time that I felt the need for a Himalayan birkin, and that’s a story for another time

You have a beautiful collection.
I only started collecting Constance this year as all my other H bags are Kelly and Birkin.
I noticed you have a DORE gold constance, Do you remember if the DORE constance price is similar to Chevre Constance price? Or is DORE at a much higher price point?

Thank you so much.
Have a nice day.

I think this is very valid, maybe its just my own belly bump XD I think Ive presented the balance of my constances. Maybe following this with mini kelly? :)

The price is identical to the Chevre Constance. I did make a point to ask when buying and my sa was able to confirm. If it was much more expensive I would of turned it down XD

The mini Kelly’s:
1. The blue electric croc mini kelly
Once upon a moon there was this gorgeous Hermes party hosted locally. We were given opportunity to take picture with wings. I was able to take my now sister in law to go with me. This picture still speaks dearly to me. I was able to meet a couple TPF friends that identified themselves to me at the event. It was quite the blessing
