Omg I love your combo! I actually didn’t go into the store with cobalt in mind. I had reserved a cuivre to pick up... i couldn’t keep my eyes off the cobalt in the room. Sadly, the love wore off and I moved onto the Bordeaux in 2 months.. purchased it via their online site and it’s so much less “loud” for an everyday work bag. So the cobalt was the price of getting the right one! So we feel the same! Your green = my cobalt.. so I think we’re together on this! I couldn’t get a hold of a matching charm quickly - I have no patience so I went the fashionphile route for once and now they both have em!!! That’s the one thing that made me feel a little less meh about the cobalt- perhaps try dressing your green? It’s actually beautiful and I’d love me that for some spring and summertime fun!

Thank you for your sharing story. I’ve eventually decided to ‘let it go’ because I know I’d feel uncertain forever. I’ve not yet found a better matching accessory for her. (Photos taken in different shades of light).

I love my cobalt GP as well. Funny that we picked same exact rodeo for her. We’re really twins on this.

Ah yes. That’s so cute! Is it practical? I guess with a strap it would be more so... I love the silk scarf lining... Considering a pre-loved one in good condition. Comes with a twilly matching the lining. I think price is good (around 700$?), but it’d be a totally random buy...
 
I agree with Catin, the brighter and lighter colors brighten my day and make me smile. If you choose a lighter color bag, I would suggest twillies for the handles because the natural oils from your hand would cause a darkening of the handles.
I can’t wait to see what you choose to get. Happy shopping!

hello.. I have been thinking to get a garden party, I have never have a bag in vert or bleu before but I find Hermes have very nice colors like vertigo, Zanzibar.. agate.. and it would be a good start with Hermes. please do share some thought.
Hello,
I’ve just decided I would let my brand new GP Verte Vertigo go because it looks so so nice itself but doesn’t seem right on me (or just me not being brave enough to go beyond the safety point or I tried it on not in right time, I should have waited till Spring to enjoy it’s brightening color). So if you intend to go casual and girly, give it a chance.

Highly recommend Cobalt & Bleu Agate if you want a blue one. Both very pretty colors that's not too bright.

These colours can work all year round, minimalist with a 'pop' against all neutral or colour block in cooler times and so cheery in in sunshine. I was going to get a more usual Etoupe until I tried Bambou. I think H bags with little or no hardware are the perfect foil for strong colours.
