Ode to the bolide

[DoggieBags]

Oohh I just love your bag, it's gorgeous!! Is this orange or potiron or a different color? I'm currently looking for a clemence Bolide and loving the orange, but I worry it may be too bright if it's the kind of popping orange similar to the Hermes boxes. The orange of your Bolide looks heavenly to me!

Thanks! It’s orange. But my SA told me they aren’t making many orange bags these days because there are so many newer colors in the orange family.

View attachment 4427012 I’d been thinking of getting a second Bolide for several years but couldn’t decide what to get. My first Bolide is an orange Clemence 31 which I love and have gotten great use out of over the years. Well I finally pulled the trigger on my second bolide 31 today.

Well, I have you to thank for the cleanup I just now had to do on my tablet! It took a while to clean all of the drool off! Congratulations on your new bag - she's a keeper! Wear her in good health.

I appreciate your comments, bagnut1, Doggie Bags and I Love Hermes! I am very sensitive to/in tune with color, and this does seem to be a happy one. But...on her first outing today, I think I guessed wrong on how well she would get along with olive.....

I think the bag and the necklace are competing against each other to go with your lovely blouse. Each does something interesting but I prefer the color of the bag. JMHO.

Hi everyone! I’ve just started venturing into Hermès and while the bolide always looked like a great bag to me I wasn’t planning on getting one - then I saw her sitting on the shelf at the airport earlier today - couldn’t resist. Excuse my yellow hotel room lighting!

Congratulations! It's a beauty!

You will grow to love the Bolide more and more. I started off thinking the Bolide was a granny bag but look - I am a happy owner of two Bolide now!

Just love love love the understated elegance of the Bolide.

Enjoy your new baby!

When you buy a Bolide new, it comes with a regular big dust bag, does it also come with a couchette dust bag?

Thank you,
