Hi all! I’ve been seriously playing the Hermès game for about 14 months now and was offered (and purchased) an Etoupe Evelyne TPM with an indigo strap. I love it! It’s my first Hermès bag. What do you all recommend for a card holder for this size? Is there a bag insert recommendation?

I use a medium size Goyard zippered pouch for my drivers license, cards and some cash. https://catalogue.goyard.us/product/senat-pouch-mm/

I bought my PM insert a couple of months ago and was very pleased with it and it shipped quickly. I need to find the vendor and I will post.

Hi lovelies, I'm about to adopt a Sheltie girl! Would E29 be a good dog mum bag? I will need to bring a water bottle/ foldable bowl, treats, poop bag :biggrin: and my small personal stuff like wallet, phone and keys.

I considered LV Noe but I think I prefer having a H bag. I also have a mini E but I'll let it go once I have a C18.

Firstly congratulations on your new girl, I know you will bring each other so much joy and comfort.

on the E29, I think so.

It's been my main (almost-only regular) bag for a year, nearly all long walks. Very comfortable for all errands, I never think twice.

This is where I bought my most recent insert from: https://www.luxegoodz.com/

Good quality, fast shipping and responsive.

I use my Evelyne 29 with my dog and it works great! I use the outside pocket for my phone, poop bags and a zip-lock baggie for treats, and put everything else in the main compartment. TBH, though, if we are going to the dog park where there are lots of dogs and dirt, I take a small Kipling nylon bag and leave the H at home.

Congrats on your new family member!

Congrats. I got my first Evie in a 29 a few months bag and it is perfect size for everyday. I think it will be perfect for your needs.

Morning - not sure if this is allowed but Fashiophile has a number of Evie's on sale today. Still over retail but I snagged a new gold TPM that I wanted vs waiting on boutique or online to get as the TPM's are so elusive.

I just snagged one myself and am super excited. I didn’t get a tpm though I got a 29 pm.

I am really too inpatient to wait for what I want to be available so even though I paid retail I don’t really mind.

Congrats - I bought my first black PM a few months ago at H and saw the gold IRL and thought it would be a great neutral classic color. I love my PM for everyday but also wanted something a bit smaller (less heavy) for outings where I am wearing it longer but don't need all my stuff. Enjoy! .

I love what you did :love:

I don’t see the ribbon threaded in your picture?
Won’t the ribbon just fall back into the purse?

I attached a pic of the inside of the bag. I found the middle of the ribbon and started on the inside of the bag at the top. When I got to the bottom I stopped and did the other side. Then I tied a knot where the two ends came together. Hope that make sense :smile:

I must confess, when I first saw Evelyne 29, I wasn't the biggest fan. I thought the strap was too thick and dinged the bag for non leather straps. I kept my eyes laser focused on other bags, BCKs. But as the years went on, I eventually became that person who needed an Evelyne. For the days when I wanted to keep it super casual, throw on a hoody, jeans w/sneakers and run errands.

This week, I had to make an emergency work trip to Portland. The trip wasn't fancy, it was doc review, it was flying into chaos with covid, BLM protests, and DHS presence. Since we were going to a third party office who recalled tons of boxes from the warehouse for our review, I thought about bringing B35 or B30, but then I thought I'd cry if it got dirty, or worse, my hand sanitizers exploded or dripped on the purse. I really needed a bag to just get down and dirty. Evelyne stepped up to the bat and knocked it out of the park. Evelyne stayed by my side during flight so that it didn't touch the floor of the plane. Evelyne helped me stay touch-less as much as I can.

I am so sorry Evelyne for not being your fan any sooner. I heart you from the bottom of my heart.
