So my wonderful SA offered me a mini Constance in the Ciel color silver hardware. I usually only like bright colors in pinks and turquoises and also neutrals. I specially buy fuchsia and bright turquoise or bright greens in my bags or blacks and neutrals. I am not a blue fan:( although I do have a blue atoll Birkin but I use her very little even tho she's beautiful![emoji173]️. I tend us my kelly 28 etoupe the most.
I've never seen this color and want to keep an open mind also Im worried I won't be offered another one in the future. Any help in deciding would be much appreciated if you have the color or have seen it.
Thank you!

To be honest.... it doesn´t seem to make your heart sing. I passed on the "wrong" C 2 months ago and was offered the perfect one 2 weeks ago. If I were you I would pass and wait for the perfect one.
For my part I don´t want to accumulate things that I don´t love but just like. But that´s just me :-)

I think this is the color?

Thank you! That gives me hope... I don't want to settle and then it sits unused. I'm also very unsure of the color. I can't tell if it's more blue or grey?

I'm 3.5 hours away from the nearest boutique:(. I hate to have her hold it for me and then not purchase. But I think I may pass and wait for a piece that makes my heart stop. I settled on the Constance 24 in swift leather and sometimes regret it as the leather is so delicate.
Always appreciate your thoughts!

If your not a "blue person" and don't prefer neutral colors I wouldn't get it. Honestly at least I carry my mini Constance very little- it's not a bag for daily use if you want to carry a lot of stuff like I do.. So it's more for special events only and if you don't love the color don't take it. I'm sure your SA will offer you something more suitable when you just give her the right specs.
Good luck with your decision!

I passed:(. Hopefully I'm offered another in the future. Seems so hard to get the color I want at my store. Yet I see so many posts on the forum with new purchases with beautiful colors. I wonder if some stores get a better assortment or is it just my SA?

you made the right decision... I think it really depend on what each store get their allocation and as well as what each store SM ordered. My SA/SM told me they really don't know what will come in until things come in. I had to wait for while for the size and color that I want. Hope you will get the color you love soon!

Thank you! It's such a mystery to me the way things work there! :-/ Long sigh
I hear people talking about meeting their quota with bag purchases to Hermes ...she hasn't had a bag for me in few months so thinking maybe in the new year:).
Does anyone know how the bag quota works? All I've purchased this year from her is Birkin 35, Constance 24, kelly 28 and kelly 32 along with numerous accessories. Im still dying get my hands on kelly 28 with ghw but nothing thus far:(.
