It's been another half year since my last reveal and my H itch has produced some delights that I'd love to share with all of you dear friends. I've been collecting H for quite awhile now, so I won't get something unless it truly calls to me. Fortunately, all these do!

1. I've had many evies but this is my first mini; the addition of the wonderful 7RP insert, which turns it into a wallet, made this decision a no brainer. I also attached a gold H filou glove clip, which I use to attach my keys- it frees up more space inside for other items.
2. I've always loved the double sens 45 and find it to be a perfect all purpose bag. Now that I found a bag insert that enables it to stand upright it has made the bag all the more practical. This is my first bright pop color H bag...and I'm just elated. Rose jaipur is a mesmerizing color, appearing at times matte and, strangely, at other times, more neon. I love salmon/coral shades and can't be happier with this very bright burst of joy, which actually seems to go with most everything. Adding a bambou swift apple air tag bag charm provides even more delicious color.
3. So far in my history I've had only 40cm birkins. It was time to try a 35...and, boy, am I glad I took the plunge. I'm always on the hunt for something different and this swift paille (straw, in French) b35 entranced me from first sight. From what I can tell it was a very rare color...and this light caramel just works so beautifully with so much. That swift birkin slouch, attenuated by the 7rp off-white insert inside, is utterly charming to me. An H SA in Las Vegas uttered, "I just LOVE the color of your bag!". I was humbled...and in quiet agreement. I hope you like it too.
4. I've always loved garden party 36s but I had never seen one in denim canvas before and it, like the paille birkin, just grabbed me. I have never had such a lightweight H bag! It is a virtual feather. I added a MaiTai mink black pom, a Bottega Veneta ID tag, and an H black leather glove holder to dress it up a bit. A mai tai b35 insert offers organization inside
5. Finally, three smaller friends: I love the cotton bain pouches and Robert Dallet's creations for H featuring big cats have been a favorite of mine over the years. When I saw this lovely pouch at the Wynn I couldn't say no. Bleu electrique is one of my favorite H blues...one that has the ability to transfix. This bearn chevre example with gold HW is so soft, so luminous. Finally: I've been accustomed to seeing and owning epsom compact silk in wallets, but until this spring I had never seen one in barenia. I had to say yes. The pull tab is in silk on this example (vs barenia in the epsom versions) and every touch makes me appreciate this even more. I'm smitten.

Thank you for sharing in my joy and for taking the time to peruse my latest H journey....thumbnail_image0.jpgthumbnail_image1.jpgthumbnail_image0-1.jpgthumbnail_image3.jpgthumbnail_image4.jpgthumbnail_image8.jpgthumbnail_image7.jpgthumbnail_image6.jpgthumbnail_image5.jpgthumbnail_image9.jpgthumbnail_image10.jpgthumbnail_image12.jpg

The "other dalliances" part of this reveal's title: I enjoy collecting back issues of Le Monde d'Hermes and have them all back to 1982, but looking through the 84-85 version I saw this delicious except which could not have been more prescient. "Will it (the birkin) become as renowned as the Kelly? HAhahahathumbnail_image0.jpgthumbnail_image1.jpg
 
Congratulations on everything in your amazing haul!

This kind of carefully considered list of purchases is one that can only come through a) experience of the brand through the years and using the products b) knowledge one's own preferences and desires (rather than what's fashionable on the (resellers) market place c) knowing how to combine a + b so that they reflect YOU best.

1. Your new Evie is so cute and useful. Clever use of the H filou glove clip. I use a BV key chain on mine for my work ID for the same reason (can't stand the blasted thing around my neck).
2. Congrats on your new bright DS 45. Not sure that Apple Air tag was correctly described as 'Bambou' though.
3. Love the colour of your new 35!
4. I think the denim canvas is very smart. That, and a chevron one from many years ago struck me as the epitome of smart-casual-cool.
5. BE is amazing with either HW, how pretty and elegant for a Bearn, and the Beriena compact silk in wallet is :loveeyes:
 
Thank you my friend! Such a cornucopia of delights!

We are twins on the denim GP (and on the insert ;)). A perfect summer/jeans bag and yes so light!

I too will steal that idea of the glove clip on the TPM. With the 7RP insert (which would allow me to leave my Calvi out), do you think a Kindle will fit inside the bag?

That Silkin is to die for.

You've inspired me, I should frame my Mythiques Phoenix. It's one of the most beautiful designs ever :loveeyes:

And the B35...well....perfection....and you know I think the 35 is the perfect bag!

What a lovely reveal! Thank you again!

@QuelleFromage @periogirl28 Thanks to you three, especially, for being stalwart friends in this Hermes journey... And a special pause of appreciation and love for other TPFers who I miss dearly who have also been with me through the years, such as @VigeeLeBrun and meg'sclosetconfessions.

Awww, thanks Hermezzy, miss all my tPF friends!

Although it is verboten here to mention any issue medical BUT an explanation is prob in order as this community has my heartfelt respect!

Long story short- a totally freak accident (think one level down from Jeremy Renner) and 5-years later finally finding my way back to the living

Without my patiently supportive family, a healthy sense of humor and a tPF community such as I find here - well, am finally seeing the light of day!

It really put the slippery orange slope in perspective lol BUT my retail interests are finally slowly returning woot woot

1. Your DS is so luscious. It’s a perfect pink and I am not a pink fan.
2. The GP is also very interesting
3. Brilliant use of the glove clips for keys - will copy this idea :biggrin:
4. Beautiful selection of framed scarves!

Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you so much for the kind comments! I, too, was originally unsure of the DS color but once I got in person I was won over...
