Hi friends! Nice to see you in another venue! I'm having a special Hermes moment with the advent of my blue electric toolbox, so I thought I'd interrupt my regularly scheduled Chanel RTW channel to share over here.

This is my somewhat quirky H collection: a Whitebus, a Kelly depeche, and now the Toolbox. I'm not a big bag collector so a new bag is a big deal in my world.

Hello, Karenaellen, so glad you joined us! :smile: Fun to see your collection, and congratulations on your new Toolbox, beautiful!
 
@etoile de mer We came across this video on YouTube and I thought you or other big dog lovers may appreciate. The golden in the video is exactly like Harry who eats so fast!


xiangxiang, :lol: this is hilarious! Our Molly did exactly the same, a bit alarming to watch! Why did she think each meal was her last? And my husband and I have commented that the kitchen floor was never as clean as when we had her. Anything dropped would be spotted and devoured by her in seconds. This usually involved her jumping up and scrambling across the floor as if she thought we also might be after it! :shrugs: And a thorough job often included her mashing her snout into the baseboard to ensure nothing was missed!

@prepster, where are you? I think you have a German Shepherd, and can weigh in on this shocking disparity in doggie dining etiquette!

We emailed this to a friend who has a German Shepherd and he just laughed. Yes we need Prepster to verify this! Lol!
 
Thank you, dragonette, so sweet of you! :heart: I was so inspired by the “rainbow” thread, it’s one of my favorites. So many beautiful collections there! :love:

One of the best threads ever! So many gorgeous collections but yours have always been my faves! I love H pinks but don't think I'd carry pink bags (anymore). A pink SLG set will be perfect! :love: I love the simplicity of your wallets... but I just wish the pull tab was made in a matching color with the rest of the wallet.
 
Wow! looks amazing! I've heard that kids in Finland go to school on skis from very early on :) Can you ski to your office? ;)

Yes, in the middle and northern parts of Finland it’s possible to ski to places. I live in Helsinki so no skiing here [emoji3] This week we have a lot of snow and -10C and sunny so lovely winter weather!
 
I fully endorse having two sets of SLGs, black is elegant and classic, and then the colors are so vivid and beautiful, too hard to resist! :smile: Somehow I ended up with two sets! :wondering:





Serva, good luck in your search for a duo! And when you mentioned your collection, I hoped you'd post a pic! :smile: Gorgeous! :heart:


Here are my two sets of SLGs, showing my Carmens in Rose Jaipur and Celeste.

Really beautiful sets edm, those pinks go so well together. I have some sets in black, barenia and orange too. It’s nice with colourful slgs.
 
You have an amazing Carmen collection! I only have 2 now as I have no use for them either. But the soft lamb skin tassels are just so adorable!

Thank you [emoji3] yes, cannot resist these. When I crave for Hermès and cannot take a flight to the nearest store, I always go online and if I’m lucky I find something to keep me happy for a while.

I have a question for you about the Carmen on your kelly, where you have it on the strap. Do you find the metal ring on the Carmen leaves marks on the strap?

My B is in chèvre so no marks on the strap but would be afraid to use a Carmen on my swift bag [emoji3]

What a funny video! Thanks for sharing. I have two that eat like the sweet guy on the right, and one that eats like the Golden. He was initially one of the largest puppies in the litter, so I can only guess that he got so big by beating the competition to the food. :dog:

Lol! I wonder the same thing. The one who swallows everything whole will sit politely until we set the bowl down, wait until we say “Okay,” and then eat his dinner in one gulp as if we might take it away. You would think we were in the habit of stealing his food. :rolleyes:

How funny! Harry is the same, he would sit and wait patiently and once he is given the "okay" to eat, he would just gulp it in one go if he could. Golden retrievers were originally bred for retrieve hunted birds etc so they were bred to have wide and soft mouth. I guess that would make precise eating difficult.
 
I know this is an international crowd, but am I the only one excited to watch the Super Bowl while shopping H scarves online? I'll go further out on that limb and note while I'm a lifelong Redskins fan, I now live in New England and I'll be rooting for the Patriots.

Ok - back to planning which CW of Grand Prix du Faubourg to purchase... Torn between 04, 10, & 14.
