Vert anis. Love it in the pics posted here, but in meatspace it makes me run away. Nothing in the colour per se, really, just the nasty mental associations it gives me, like a trip gone bad. So kudos to those who love it and can wear it!

I'm sorry to ask but what is 'meatspace'?

Nevermind, I googled it.

Love this trail! It's not that I don't like them all (I would wear some as SLGs but not full-on bags) but have to say the predominate neon/candy colors, and sanguine, capuchine, and some of the yellows, browns, greens and blues which only look wearable in exotic skins.

I adore the house colors as they were my very first bags.

you will be surprised..some do take it personally! unfortunately..

anyway, i like blue jean too is such an easy colour to wear and match and instantly recognisable..i do not like the current crop of 50 shades of blues from H..every 6 months they lighten and/or darken the previous season shade of blue and call it something else...can't really tell the difference between any of them anymore...

worse colour though i have to say is himalayan - just looks like moldy bacteria growing all over the bag causing discolouration

This!!! I do not understand the appeal! Maybe it is because I have not seen one IRL. Himalayan looks like roadkill color to me in this side of the world (TX).

One the otherhand I have seen matte crocs and alligator IRL and those are SO heavenly. I never thought I would like it matte.

This thread is so funny!

I'm generally not a fan of yellow shades in H.

Otherwise for me it's all about combinations. I don't like Blue Jean except in Epsom, which I think makes it really pop. I don't like orange in B's or K's but LOVE my orange DS. I like Bolides in neutrals, not as much in pop colors. I like etoupe with GHW but not with PHW. I like red leathers with PHW but not GHW.

This is all of the moment. When it comes to H I'm also very wishy washy and prone to changing my mind [emoji16]

Very true about the blue colors recently! In fact, my SA never really tells me the new names, just says it's the new version of such and such blue from last year, lol.

Himalayan croc may be the only H color that I actually don't like. The neon and varying shades of pink/salmon come close to "dislike" when we're talking about a full bag, but the colors themselves are pretty to look at. There are plenty of colors that I'd never carry because they don't look good on me (Gold) or are not very interesting when I see it in real life (etoupe), but definitely no hatred of any of them. They are obviously not Hermes' worst colors ever, that's for sure!

It's interesting to see the change in attitude on tpf towards blue jean. I recall that when I joined tpf, it was the most popular, most sought after color on the forum. I like it more now than I did back then, but it's still not a shade of blue I would ever wear.
