Yes for sure you don't want any oil from lotions to stain the birdie handles. I don't care for decorating my bags either, but if you get something tonal it won't stand out too much.
What is your last Hermes purchase?

An ostrich B30!!
I really really want a birdie in my collection and this color especially. Lucky lucky lucky you! It's gorgeous!
yesss, the mythiques phoenix, which i have in the silk square:
if they made this print in the twilly i could use it for my black kelly or this bird!
Gorgeous birdie B30. The color is divine and major congrats, ldldb!
thank you VigeeLeBrun! i can never say no to a grey bag, especially if it's exotic

thank you for your advice! i spoke to two spa specialists at my local boutique, and one told me to just wear it naked (the bag, not me
). when the handles are bad, they will send it away to paris to have the handles replaced... though i suspect that could take an awfully long time and probably quite costly. but another spa specialist told me to absolutely protect the handles with twillies, especially if i am careful with my bag otherwise. i really do not like to take anything away from the pure beauty of these bags, especially when the skin is so incredible looking on its own, so will have to really find just the right scarves to quietly complement the bag. but for my black croc kelly, perhaps i should venture into finding a brighter twilly to make it stand out as you suggest!
Absolutely protect the handles! I never had a Twilly in my life until I ventured to take out my beautiful blue B35 ostrich everywhere I went... The humidity and holding the bag everywhere I went ruined the handles...(and it is a long long spa date for that bird at H). Still waiting for the bird's return....
This isn't a current pic but you get the idea, panthere!
VigeeLeBrun, your collection is breathtaking
yikes, i will definitely have to bite the bullet on the twilly then! thanks for the cautionary tale! the bird in your avatar is amazing btw

Congrats, birdie counsin!
I protect my HAC 28 Graphite with twillys too, can't imagine needing to replace the handles...ouch!
Here's mine:
