Hello lovely TPFers! This is my first ever post so please bear with me. I have been reading your kind, supportive and super helpful posts. Being of a certain vintage, it’s taken me a while to decipher the various abbreviations (I wonder if there is a glossary?) but I’m getting there ☺.
I’d like to share with you my latest H purchase. After a year of drooling I have recently taken ownership of a bleu du nord lindy mini. It’s been quite a quest. As an aside, I wonder if a PhD could be studied in scoring a hard to source H bag? Subjects covered could include strategy, going up against bots on the internet and behavioural economics with the store SAs
Anyway, going off topic there. So here she is (spookily enough the background wall colour looks a lot like etoupe!).
View attachment 5167031 I absolutely adore her and you are all right, she can carry so much. All my other H bags are in neutral colours so the colour was quite a departure for me. But I reasoned that of all the bags to buy, the Lindy mini was the one to do it with. An SA in the SS London store did tell me that Hermes is known as the “House of Colour”. Having said that, I’d also now love another in gold which would match my gold verso garden file. Let’s hope Lindy mini’s are like buses - you wait ages for one and then they all come at once!
I saw recently on instagram a creative person had shortened the strap to make it a handheld by wrapping the folded strap with a Twilly. But i wasn’t sure from the photo as to how she had done it. Does anyone have any tips?
