I love how H would make such a "normal" bag into an art. It is so well-made compared to all the other similar ones other brands have! Congratulations, HM, it is just plain beautiful.
I'm really intrigued now by the Gao bag. Like Ms. Piggy, I could see myself carrying this bag in curry for spring/summer and in black like HermesMonkey or maybe even rouge H. DH and I just got back home from a quick trip to Seattle w/o our son and I carried my Evelyne the entire time except for arrival and departure when I carried my Birkin. This would be another great bag for when you want to fly under the radar.
