Ode to the Victoria

Is anyone else missing their Victoria during the summer months? I put my black Victoria away for a rest, and I find myself longing for Fall, so I can take her out again! I am a teacher and off for the summer, so I tend to carry very casual, canvas bags during this time of year. Does anyone carry their black leather bags during the summer? I bought the Hermes bicolor (red/orange) "chaine d'amour" charm for her, and had the bag monogrammed right before putting her away. Makes me look forward to Fall . Anybody using their darker bags this July?

Personally, I think black is an all year color! For inspo, check out this instagrammer: https://www.instagram.com/sabinalynn/ I think she's super chic and every single bag she owns is black. :cool:

Thank you so much for your input. I have started following sabinalynn as you recommended, and I love her aesthetic! I will definitely need to take my Victoria out sooner rather than later. Thanks again!

Introducing my new Victoria II 35 in Rose Azalee Clemence PHW. :heart:

It is so roomy and way lighter than my B35. I use a bag insert for organization and to protect the linen lining.

It'll be perfect for traveling when combined with either one of my Chanels or my Fendi Mini Baguettes.

Here she is with my Ostrich Bearn in Bougainvillier, CDC in Fuchsia Gator, Sterling Silver Rose Shocking Chèvre Piggy Charm, and Bolduc Cashmere Shawl.

So happy. :love::girlsigh::hbeat::loveeyes:

Quick question for those who are much more well-versed regarding Hermes artisans than I:
Are the Victoria bags made by hand, or is that process reserved only for B and K? Just curious...
When I asked this same question a few months ago, I got the general answer that yes, all Hermes bags are made with the same handstitching, one artisan process. Bs, Ks, & Cs just seem to be the chosen ones who get all the attention!

Stunning color! I noticed on the website today that the newer colors of Victoria are not pictured with locks. Did yours come with a lock?
