Space for Guys & their Hermès

[fabuleux]

An sa at FSH once told me that bordeaux is more for French grandmothers... After I said I would be interested in the color. But it's not the first time I heard I have the same taste as a grandmother...

thank you so much! And ... really surprised to see it! I wonder how small it is...

edit: it' already gone! =-(

I love Bordeaux as a color (not necessarily as a Hermès color), and I m only 36!! I think it’s very elegant and classic.

It's not Marc Jacobs. That picture was taken from pitti uomo this year by a street-style photographer from Vogue Paris.

This is what Marc Jacobs looks like now

Instead of posing for pictures with Chanel regalia, he should be working on saving his brand!!!

I totally agree, it was the first time I heard such a thing and I'm even younger than you and at the time even younger than I am now... It's not as easy to work with as blue, but I would still consider bordeaux a basic color like marron or grey.

I have a Bordeaux B. It’s a wonderfully rich color and not a grandma color. Unless all French grandmothers are stylish, sophisticated and elegant...

Certain French ladies have very fixed opinions on all aspects of style: what is appropriate, when and where.

Look back at the thread on choosing shoes and a belt for a Mediterranean wedding.

Of course they are: that is a given!
Sorry, if you come from any other part of the world, it is not possible for you to have the 'je ne sais quoi'.

Totally agree. I always considered bordeaux to be a neutral.

Not sure. I don’t have a HAC 40 to compare it with but it is not much heavier than my all leather 40 birkin.

I’m fairly certain it’s dyed VN. I’ll be able to tell for sure once I have it.

Hello! I have seen some posts about the Wallago Cabine 53 and the Sac A Depeche Light. I am extremely interested in both.

I have not seen either on the US website or in store. Has anyone seen them in the US? If so, do you have the prices?

Thanks!!!

I haven't seen them on the US web page, but going by the French web page, the price should be similar to the Cityback 27 (8 250 USD) for the SAD light and the Wallago is 6 500 euros, so a bit more than the 2002 tache hermes 20, which is 9 900 USD on the US page. I'm sure you'll find these bags somewhere in the US, maybe contact some of the bigger stores. Good luck.
