Constance 18 in Black Evercolor with silver hardware

Just a few months ago, I decided to pursue an H collection. I knew it was going to be hard because the closest boutique to me is tiny, so stock is really limited, and I've never purchased from them before, so I had no relationships with any of the SAs there. I was able to find a good SA that followed up with me a few times to check on the colors I wanted, etc. Fast forward to present time, I haven't heard from her in a while, so I decided to call to follow up and wish her happy holidays. Not surprisingly, she said that there wasn't anything in stock. Two days later, I get a phone call in the morning saying that there was a bag for me and I had to come before they closed that day. I live 2 hours away from this boutique, but I told her, say no more, I will see you today. I can't believe that my first H bag is the Constance and it only took 3 months of waiting. I feel blessed!

December is my birthday month! I did most of my Hermes shopping this year this month (most of which were before Christmas)! :oh: I will ease off hermes purchases once we enter into January! lol.

Picked up a small arm candy for myself today. Photo taken next to one of my birthday presents.

Kelly double tour in rose gold hardware in Gris asphalte! My favorite colour this season.

It looks quite similar to maron glacé with rose gold clic.

I can’t wait to wear it with my Gris asphalte bag!!

Happy New Year everyone!
:heart:
 
I already have slipped a chance away a few weeks ago (which I regretted it) so I did not let it ago this time when I was offered another one (silver Galop bracelet) yesterday! View attachment 3919504

This bracelet is the piece of H jewelry that I wear the most. It will warm to your skin and you won't even realize that you have it on. My only advice is to not fall asleep wearing it, it can be quite dangerous in that way. Congratulations & enjoy!

I love this bracelet but I was afraid it is too big! Do you find you hit it on things or is it just a question of getting used to it?

Thanks rainneday! I do agree with you, the bracelet indeed warmed to my skin! I love H silver jewellery so much, not only because if its design but also nicely cut and polished, never leave me a scratch nor marks, and they are very solid too.

I do think it's about getting used to it. When I first started wearing this Galop I was worried that I would accidentally clobber someone with it (I tend to talk with my hands), but it's not as bulky as it seems. It is weighty, but not in a bad way, and because it warms up you don't really notice it moving around. I think that the first night that I wore it for a few hours I had it resting on the wrong spot and noticed some discomfort, but since then I have never had that issue, though I'm not sure what I did differently then vs. now. I was comfortable with the weight of the clic clacs & Galop is heavier than those. Additionally, most of my jewelry is understated (with the exception of the CdC), and is also gold, but Galop blends in fine & I have received a few random compliments on it. I tried the bulkier, twisted version, but it wasn't as comfortable for me. Best of luck if you decide to try it out!

Thank you for that. I am going to go try it on again because every time I see it I long for it! Ha ha. I usually wear the behapi double tour and I have a mini dog I love, so the Galop is a bit of a departure style wise!
