I vote for the Moynat Rejane in Fuchsia. You look good carrying it and you seem to pick bright colors from what you posted. You probably want something special on/for your birthday and if you wait until next June that is a long wait!!! And you probably won't even get what you want. When you go overseas next year, get something else then. Happy Birthday wishes.
 
a 31cm bolide is also another possible options. My hubby thinks i'm too young for one as he claims it looks matronly on me, but I just think it's the color??

Thanks for your reply! :flowers:

Really great points! :yes: Next June is a really long time away and who knows if i'll even get lucky and score a bag in Paris. To your point, what I get offered too might be something I'm not interested in.

Thanks for your reply! ;)

You're totally right - I just need to embrace turning 30 and look forward to all the things to come in my next chapter of life!

I love LV bags as well and appreciate your suggestions. In the end, I've found that I am a pebbled leather kind of girl and as much as I love canvas bags on others, I can't seem to bring myself to get one.

Yes exactly, have that attitude and you will have a lovely birthday [emoji512]

Fair enough, whichever bag you decide to get, I bet it’s going to be beautiful! Can’t wait to see pics of your reveal [emoji7]

Hi!! Thanks so much for your reply :flowers:

Good to know about the mini PB. I have owned the regular size and didn't have issues since it's larger, but I can see how it would be even more difficult in the mini size to get in and out of.

I've never seen the gaby - still waiting to NYC store to get it it, but I am sure I will love it once I see it.

Is the rejane easy to get in and out of? When I tried it on in the boutique I didn't even open it LOL If I end up going the rejane route, I think I might get the fuchsia with gold HW. It's just so eye catching!
I tried it in store. The flap is big enough that it seems ok but it is still a flap bag [emoji16].
If you see the fuschia with ghw, grab it! It is very hard to get Moynat bags in ghw!
Honestly, the bolide doesn't look as good on you...but that is just my opinion.
You can always try for a kelly and if you get one then no Moynat...if you can't get a kelly, then go for Moynat [emoji23][emoji23]
You can still get a kelly later on.
If you like a handheld bag, then get a birkin. I have come to realise that a handheld short handle and shoulder strap option works best for me [emoji6].
Happy shopping and happy 30th in advance

They are one the original Hermes bags but there's nothing matronly about a sophisticated, go-anywhere, UTR H Bolide. I happen to adore the Bolide (have 3) always have done even before I could get my hands on one so I don't want to bias you the other way. I just think there is no bag that can go from the most formal/minimal/anti-fashion to casual/cool for me. I am very strong minded when it comes to what I wear but I remember my DH talked me out of buying a Lonchamps LP at the airport for travel and my mother almost talked me out of Gucci Flora-print loafers, I understand the strength of a loved one's neg words.

Hard to tell on my phone, which colour is it, Bleu Brighton, Bleu Tempete, Bleu Agate or another? Any of those whould make a great all year-round bag. If you just love the colour you could try for a K in the same colour no? Just don't settle unless it's the bag you want. Not agreeing with your husband but aesthetically, like the Moynat Rejane on you more.

Is there a similar colour in the Moynat 'repertoire' available in the Rejane atm?

Thank you for the early birthday wishes

I love the idea of trying my luck at Hermes and if I don’t have any luck get the Moynat bag!

I completely agree, the bolide is a lovely bag. It’s like the best of both worlds. When my hubby said that I quickly told him to shhh! But you’re right, I’ve always thought about his comment whenever I’ve considered getting one.

The picture with the bolide was from September 2016 and I cannot recall the color. I was actually only trying on the bag for size. While the dark blue is lovely, I’m looking for more of a pop color at the moment. I wish the bolide came in rose pourpre! That’d make my choice very easy.
 
Here's mine--rouge grenat--with coach rexy charm.

I think birkin & kelly look matronly.:lol:
Gotta choose what YOU feel great wearing.:tup:
Still voting moynat.

Love your bolide :love: thanks for sharing!

I wish I didn’t love all of the bags as much as I do LOL

We’re heading to NYC soon so I’ll get a chance to see the Moynat again in person to see if the bag still makes my heart sing :heart:

Not sure it doesn't. (certainly there have been mini Bolides in Swift RP) have you asked?

I re-read. You think the colour may make it less fresh. RP would make a zingy Bolide, true :tup:

Yes, you’re correct it RP does come in the mini bolide and size 27 in swift. If I went the bolide route my dream combo would be size 31cm in clemence leather :heart:

I wonder if the new magnolia comes in the 31cm bolide. I may have to enquire about that :smile:
