That series is on Netflix, DH found it...

Baskets is like that Nicole -- funny, sad, sobering -- many emotions, which is why you have to watch it for a bit to "get into it." His character is wonderful.

We love Homeland! It's one of our favourite shows! Thank you for mentioning it or else we might have missed it. Just checked it starts here around 18th Feb. So I shall set a reminder on my TV box to record it.

We started to watch Babylon Berlin this week and so far it's been excellent! It's the first TV series in German for us. It's the most expensive non-English language drama series ever made in history and also most expensive German TV series at the time of its first season release with a budget of approximately 40 million Euros.

It's set in late 1920'+ Berlin. It has history, detective story, strong female characters, the art deco set, the entertainment scenes in Berlin, the dances, the whole works! It gives a great peak of Berlin right after WWI. We have visited Berlin several times and really find it so fascinating!

Thanks, I'm interested in checking both of these out.
I could use a brush up on my college German Luiliu, I was going to comment that these internet only shows can be watched on the TV with apple TV usually, but I see that it was found on netflix

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! 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.

Hi dragonette, Hermes makes beautiful pinks! A pink set in your black bags would look gorgeous! Regarding the Silk’In tabs, when they were previously silk, they were so easily soiled, so Barenia is a big improvement. It is kind of funny they don’t match the tab to the wallet color, but I was so happy they made the change from silk, I really don't mind. And kind of fun to have a tiny bit of Barenia on the wallet , so silky smooth!

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.

Thank you Serva, I collected the pale set first, but love the pink set most! What SLG pieces do you have in Barenia? I love Barenia, it's so a beautiful!

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.

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.

prepster, so cute! I love all the different personalities. You have your hands full (and a full house) with 3 German Shepherds!

I am H-appy today! The noir Carmen my gf ordered for me arrived at hers... and we also ordered a noir duo Carmen today! When my noir Mini Bearn appears, my noir SLG set will be complete.

Yay, exciting, dragonette! I hope you find your Mini Bearn soon, too!

 

[etoile de mer]

I definitely think we do! Bored to Death is so funny and Jason’s facial expressions and his hairstyle cracks me up every time. And yes, I will go shouldn’t be laughing but omg it’s too funny I can’t help it!

Hi cilantro, and his sincerity, and lack of guile are so funny! We love Ted Danson on that program, as well. I think it may be time for us to watch the series again.

This looks good. I tried making coffee ice cream before but it wasn’t as good. Do you use egg yolks?

Yes, it was a cooked, custard base with egg yolks. A bit too egg-y in taste, recipe needs more tinkering, but I've currently lost interest!

Spectacular pic!

If I didn't set myself on only black for my neutral, I'm sure my life will be much easier. And that is tricky because H is very brown-based on neutral trims and accents. I'm so happy with the prospect of collecting a pink set!

Yay, exciting, dragonette! I hope you find your Mini Bearn soon, too!

Maybe I should start the pink set concurrently? So I can get a pink wallet (mini Bearn) first and mix it up until the noir appears...

Hey! Thanks for thinking of me! Wow, those are gorgeous. I just bought myself a new pair of Felco pruners, and practically had a heart attack when they rang them up at the register. My shears are never where I left them because I like them sharp and everyone else does too, so I can never find them when I need them. Lol! I’d probably have to sleep with the H pruners under my pillow.

prepster, so cute! I love all the different personalities. You have your hands full (and a full house) with 3 German Shepherds!

Lol! That’s for sure. They are nutty. If I so much as move to get a glass of water they follow me and sit in a line and stare intently. If nothing interesting happens they flop down with the most dramatic sighs as if they are stuck living with the most boring person on earth.

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! Somehow I ended up with two sets!




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


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

I’m way behind but I wanted to say how beautifully you choose colors!

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.

Gorgeous collection!

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.

Lol! Whenever I see a Golden I just want to squoosh up their soft furry faces and kiss them on the nose. (That is such a cute video of the Bernese puppy. )

Black Barenia would be ideal for the Silk’In tabs, I wonder why they don’t use that as well? I just often find myself wanting to redesign things! I wish SLGs were available as special orders, would be so fun. I'd start by requesting a Dogon Recto Verso wallet in Epsom. The layout is ideal for me, but I'd rather have Epsom vs Togo for better durability.

Maybe I should start the pink set concurrently? So I can get a pink wallet (mini Bearn) first and mix it up until the noir appears...

Yes, good idea, regarding concurrent collecting! Which pinks do you like? I tend to favor the warmer ones, but the cool pinks are beautiful, too.

I don't think I'm the target audience for the Hermes set. I'm picturing dirt and sap all over them in no time!

Lol! That’s for sure. They are nutty. If I so much as move to get a glass of water they follow me and sit in a line and stare intently. If nothing interesting happens they flop down with the most dramatic sighs as if they are stuck living with the most boring person on earth.

That's so sweet! I love the image of the three of them trotting after you, and then sitting neatly in a row! Our golden was also glued to my side, or my husband's all the time. When she got older, and was having a harder time getting around, we'd ponder whether we really needed to get up to get something. We hated to bother her as we knew she'd want to follow!

Thank you, prepster , they're so fun to collect!
