Happy Easter to all!

This is my Les Bles scarf that was washed in fuchsia at the Austin Hermessence event. At first, I thought the dye was too dark because I could barely make out the pattern...but then I realized I had the scarf upside down. Whew! Can you find the bunnies? [emoji173]️

I love this little rabbit pikabook so much that I use him as a bag charm instead of a bookmark.

My recent addition is a vert vertigo clemence Evelyne 3 PM. Nothing fancy, but every time I look at the color, it makes me happy. I never expected an Evelyne would bring me so much joy! Lol.

I ordered custom length matching canvas straps, but we all know how wonky that process can be so I decided to order canvas straps from Mautto based on comments made by other tpfers. The color match isn’t great (which I was aware of when I placed my order), but for $33, it suits me just fine. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I can’t really tell the difference in size between my etoupe Evelyne 3 GM and this PM size.

Just wanted to share my joy for green along with Panthera Pardus giant silk in cw07 (aqua/ turquoise/ vert):

Love the Evelyne too , my first bag and still one I treasure.
I've been head over heels with H greens for a while now , I need to take a long look at that Panthera after seeing this !
The original strap can be shortened using a twilly but I've never quite managed it myself.
Sometimes the cross body hikes up garments and leads to clothing malfunction, wouldn't it be great if Hermès supplied a short strap !

Excited to see you post again! Love the idea of having a shorter strap for Evelyne. I think that will give more use of the bag. The panther scarf is really magnificent. :heart:

I agree— I love the crossbody functionality of the Evelyne, but the super shortie strap gives it a totally different look. Personally, I’m not a fan of the adjustable strap because the hardware thingy in the middle always seems to cut right into my collarbone. I’ve tried to create a super shortie strap using a twilly on the adjustable strap, but I can never get it to stay put all day. (Actually, wide binder clips work really well to keep the strap in place at a shorter length, but I understand that binder clips isn’t the look that H is seeking to create).

Feeling samourais-ish today so I changed up the twillies on the old bleu de prusse B35:

I must have really been in love with the Brazil twillys when they came out because I seemed to have purchased three different colorways...

I limited myself to one 90 silk twill and one CSGM in this pattern because I tend to buy multiples of the same pattern when I like something.

I think I like looking at this pattern more than I do wearing it...hee hee. The 90 silk twill feels dramatically seductive whereas the CSGM feels mysterious and a little masculine (in a good way!)

I love the PdS and actually feel it’s a power scarf/shawl for me, it has that masculine vibe you described so well. Just recently wore the same cw CSGM to a shareholder’s meeting and it felt good. We are twins on both of these pieces but you have paired the silk better with your beautiful Kelly.

So happy you are back and posting in your tread lala. You have a fabulous garden of bags and accessories and you take beautiful pics. I love your collection of exotic Isidor necklaces, especially the gt matte alligator/croc. It must have taken some years and a lot of passion for H to create and curate your garden [emoji3]
