Is anyone else going to the Home Event next month? Very excited to see it but not sure what to expect. I know it's mostly focused on home goods/furniture but just wondering if there's a tiny chance they might do offers during this event
What is your prespend so far at the boutique and what are the categories? Some ladies mentioned they got offered QB in the Heritage Leather event last time..but the boutique may or may not offer QB for each client in each event.
I am almost at 1.5:1 now and we've bought from various categories - home goods, jewelry, shoes etc. I also heard about the Heritage event but unfortunately didnt get an invite to that

Your spending history sounds pretty well-rounded.
Based on several cases that I heard of, I think the first QB was offered after the ratio hitting 2:1 or above. You are fairly close now.
My husband helped me pick up a non-quota bag my SA was holding for me yesterday. I just noticed on the receipt that my SA created a brand new profile for him under his name (he didn’t have an account) to do the pickup even though he used my credit card. Not sure why she had to do that. I know non-quota bags don’t count as much to spend but wondering if it’s worth the effort to have her move the purchase under my account instead. Or are there joint accounts between family members? My husband rarely shops at Hermes so not sure if it’s worth it to have a profile for him. TIA for the insights!!
i dont think bags count towards any pre-spend so prob doesn't matter which account it's in.
Anyone seen mauve evelyne recently? Specifically looking for a mini.
My SA told me it's a seasonal color so she hasn't seen the SF store get them, but there has been a few neutrals that come in. I've recently fallen head over heels for that color, and debating a) if I should wait indefinitely, b) get a neutral evelyne (settle) and maybe get a pink twilly to satisfy the pink craving, or c) get chanel light pink woc (not my preference but there are a lot of upcoming light pinks). Any feedback would be appreciated!

Why wouldn’t they get a seasonal color in? They are a flagship store so this seems odd to me. Are they saying they already had them come in before so they don’t think anymore will come in as it was more of a last season color?
Agreed, it’s a weird statement which typically translates to “I won’t be able to get that item for you”. I’d either be insistent that it’s the only item I want and don’t want to settle and then stick to it knowing that it might never happen (if you can live with that) or take the neutral Evelyne if you still love it anyway (and maybe let the SA know that if a mauve does become available, you’d still love to get it as well, if true).
I mentioned in person AND in text, and she said "i will let you know but fyi... mauve sylvestre is a seasonal color. haven't seen". which I thought was weird too. I would understand if she just said not available (for me), but maybe she was trying to phrase it to be nicer.
I have another appointment next week to pick up a Father's Day gift for the hubs so I'll ask again. If still a no, then I'll "settle" for a neutral since it's easier to match with other clothes anyway.
Thank you for the feedbacks!
Their shoes fit me really well, but I haven't bought any since I'm still working from home. I texted my SA and told her I wanted to come in soon.
Sometimes the SA may want to say/phrase it nicely that she may not be able to offer you certain items, hence she sent the “mauve sylvestre is a seasonal color. haven't seen” text. This is just to help set your expectations accordingly. The Mauve Sylvestre color items could be already reserved or sold to other clients.
Anyway, I think you already plan for the right move - ask again for Mauve Sylvestre Evelyn, if no, settle for another bag that can sing to your heart.
Colors are seasonal so maybe it’s just not a color that’s offered this season. Hermès is notorious for bringing back old colors so maybe in a year or 2 or 3 I’m sure that color will be back.
Thanks for the insight! I thought mauve was part of this year's spring/summer. Will have to see what's in or coming to the store! Will report back after Wednesday evening!
