My Aphrodite is one of my all time favorites. It is a long bag, but the way it hangs so close to my body and so flat makes it seem smaller to me. But if it it not right for you, it is not right. Vanilla and chocolate right!!!

Setting up house is a slow process, but I'm in no rush. Right now, I feel like I'm throwing money into a fire.
Hi, nice to see you here again. I remember you from 9-10 years ago. I was gone for a few years, too, raising small children. I have one teenager and a tween now.
Hi Bonnie, I like my Calista so much that I do not feel I have to get another one. I'm much better at resisting my bag-buying impulses nowadays.
I hear you. I'm combining households with my mother and deciding for 2 people what stays and what goes into storage and what is sold or donated is driving me crazy. Money to fix things up is also draining my bank accounts. Most of my purses are now in storage. But looking forward to being there more for Mom.Setting up house is a slow process, but I'm in no rush.

Me too... I think it’s brilliant. You create a product as the most expensive in the world and you make people beg for it. I think it is part of the consumerism era where the thirst is never over... so easy to buy a massaccessi handbag, you just go and do it. But oh with Hermes, your crave can’t be satisfied just like that... and so the hunt begins... you want this leather, this hardware, this size... and you spend months, even years trying to satisfy this obsession. In an era where you can just buy everything , hermes offers you this experience where you feel fullfilled by the hunt. And when you finally have it, after you fought for it... well. There’s this other leather, this other hardware, this other size...
I have to agree that the marketing is nothing short of brilliant.
Thanks to a lovely TPF poster I am the proud new owner of this lovely bag. I have wondered about a Zhoe Legend for a while and now that I have it, I am a happy camper. The teal Nappa color is really awesome. And it is the perfect size for me because I do not carry a lot in my bags. I also worried how the profile would look. It works fine because I carry several flat items, e.g., a large iPhone, that fit well in the front and back pocket areas.
I have 2 Zhoe Legends one in Artic nappa and one in Celeste. The artic nappa was from a sample sale and the Celeste was from the lovely Tenkrat. I really like the clean lines and size of the Zhoe Legend. The teal nappa is gorgeous. So pleased you like this style as do I.
You have a lovely bag.
I’m happy with all of my MM bags, so it used to be hard to pick my most favorite. I can now say that it is the Zhoe Legend because the size is just right, and I love its simple, classic shape.
I made a trip to the grocery using it and was impressed. The length is perfect and with a simple one hand flip of the top everything is right there and accessible while on my shoulder. It may become one of my favorites as well. It is nice to have you back on the site. I remember you from the beginning of my TPF experience and always enjoyed your posts
Wow Artic nappa is so beautiful. Yes I am really pleased and think it will be used a lot.
Agreed, I moved six months ago and although the house was 3years old and I thought lots would be fine discovered lots of extra jobs costing time and money and I’m still catching up,, in my case previous owners had put fairy lights up in the house, but attached to door frames/ceilings with scotch tape (who does that), then inherited a garden where lawn not mowed in 3 years and they very kindly left a lawnmower with a severed electrical cable,,Setting up house is a slow process, but I'm in no rush.

Ah, the joys of home ownership. BUT when you get it like you want it, it is wonderful! (Until something breaks).
