@HiEndGirl, do you have any problem of color transfer with Trench color? While I love alot of H's light color tones, I am also afraid of color transfers or dirty patches along the way of regular use. Thanks.

No problems so far. Its fairly new and only used it about 4 times so far it's good. I think this colour would be hard to show up mild dirt or grubby finger marks etc. as it's not as light as a cream or light beige. It's a little darker. But I am a little cautious with it (not sure if that the colour or because is my only H bag though) For colour transfer I rarely wear denim which I think is a big cause(?) and I think because this bag is hand held it does really rub against my hip like a cross body would which can cause colour transfer so it might depend on the style of bag too and how you wear it. Hope this helps.

It's a bicolor. I have reservation on the combo. But I finally found the paon in 18 in another store! Yay! A blue hydra 22 and paon 18 are on hold for me. I will decide when I see them in person. I'm kinda leaning towards paon but not sure if it's too bright? I'm not one to match outfit with bags so no worry in that department but just don't really like neon-y color. From instagram paon looks bright but not neon-y if that makes sense, lol [emoji23] I've heard feedback that some say hydra is a bright color too so am now torn between the two. Hopefully I won't be undecided when shown the two bags. I really hope I can bring one home without feeling buyer remorse.

I had exactly the same choice a few months ago! I tried both and P18 is too small for me and paon too green. I chose blue Hydra P22. [emoji16]IMG_1479537721.747771.jpg

Somehow I missed this notification. I'm glad I gone through the thread again and found your reply. [emoji7] blue hydra is so lovely and I found out from instagram on paon which is also gorgeous! I hope I can get both since they're different sizes n colors, lol but I'm not one on repeating style and already have a gm Evelyn so maybe paon is the one for me? Argh! This is so hard! I asked my kids to decide n it's an equal vote on both, lol I'm still stuck, maybe seeing them in person will help [emoji16][emoji51]

Haha I love how you asked your kids to vote [emoji13]. Mine would be of zero use for this. Lol

Gotta train them from young! Lol [emoji23]
I've gone to the store and check out the hydra 22 and paon 18, both are super gorgeous but then when the SA pulled out the nuit 18, I immediately changed my mind on the bright tones. I love the nuit as it looks almost black but with an interesting twist. I was shown a blue/malachite/Craie? combo rodeo but in the mm size which I think look too big on the 18 so I passed. Hopefully I made the right decision, yikes! [emoji38] But I did manage to get the Dan Uns Jardin Anglais twilly that matched the nuit 18 . will post pic once I reached home [emoji537]
