Received my Trim 24 duo yesterday. I was very concerned with the drop length when worn crossbody. I sent a message to Hermes asking for the bag's longest drop. Their response, "Our Trim Duo 24 bag's strap measures 9.1" long." Huh? Will hit right under my arm? I'm 5'9" and simply can't stand it when a drop is too short. Their response didn't make sense so I looked elsewhere for measurements and found it at a preloved site. I have seen photos of younger people wearing cross-bodies higher, above the waist too? Too uncomfortable for me. At any rate, I decided to take a chance.
Well! Purchased the lime/yellow and to my delight it fits Perfectly! PERFECTLY!.....on the last hole. I love the way it snuggles to the body.....snuggles?......need to find another word.....it truly is that comfy. It 'was' going to be the last designer bag I would ever purchase....yes, I'm up there....I already have beautiful pieces in different colors/sizes for any occasion. Had a hard time rationalizing this cute thing but my heart kept repeating....you don't have a color like this! My brain tried to calm my heart.....she lost.
This is a terrific errand bag. It holds my essentials nicely and oh so comfortable while doing so....ok, you caught me, I just received her yesterday and haven't worn her out of the house but I have pounced from one mirror to the next checking every angle in different lighting and was comfy the entire time.
Yes, I wrote, above, that this 'was' to be my last designer bag.....but......late last night while trying to go to sleep I kept thinking, "You don't have a dark brown. You have tan/cammeo, black, blue, denim, tweed, etc. but not a rich dark brown." Through sleepy eyes and yawns I grabbed my iPad and clicked away for the Trim 24 in the Havane and immediately hit the sheets. I thought for Sure I would wake this morning with regrets.....nope! It was the right choice. She'll be here this coming week.
SO! I am complete.....no more bags!!!
Not sure I'm listening.
