First, Into the Canadian Wild in 05, a 2018 scarf I've been keeping an eye out for at a reasonable price. I managed to snag this one gently used but without any flaws for retail rather than the $500-600 it seems to go for (Fun fact: this design had a misprint in all its runs--the è in Hermès was printed as é!)

Then, a Barenia Faubourg Verso Calvi in Fauve/ Rose D'Ete. It's so neat to have something in Barenia, though I'm a little nervous that it's already patina-ing/darkening in one spot and I wonder how well it will hold up as an SLG since it's a fairly soft leather. I'm keeping an eye out for an Epsom verso combo I love even more as a possible exchange.

And then a Sesame Mini Evelyne with the Allegro strap! The Rouge Tomate I purchased earlier this month is going back in favor of this one, I love it! I'd been trying to get the Beige de Wiemar with the multicolor strap for ages now; the same day that I missed one (added it to cart but didn't get to check out) I was shocked to see the Sesame and Rose Azalee pop up. In my rush to pay I actually accidentally had added both the Sesame and the Rose Azalee in my cart and successfully checked out :nuts: I called H customer service immediately and they were able to cancel the Rose Azalee since I knew for sure I wouldn't keep it.

I was nervous about Sesame--it's a color I've never seen in person, and it looked really yellow online. It's definitely a yellow, warm brown--I think it's best described as a mustard-camel. It's not for everyone, but I really, really love mustard-y shades, and it goes perfectly with my rusty fall/winter wardrobe. That the strap is a fun and multicolored is just an added bonus!
I don't own any other H neutrals right now, but I've added a photo to compare with Barenia.

Still keeping an eye out for BdW, as I think it would pair nicely with my spring wardrobe, but I'm super excited to have my first H bag!

I love the color theme in all of your purchases. I'm especially obsessed with the strap + mini Evelyne combo you chose. It's SOOOO good, probably one of the best I've seen. :loveeyes:

I LOVE all of your purchases! The way you tied your Canadian Wild is PERFECTION! (I need to learn how to tie mine that way.) Enjoy your treasures!

Thank you!
The knot is pretty easy; I stumbled across it by accident!--an accordion fold, then feed the end that has the cougar through the chain d'ancre style scarf ring to create a loop. Adjust so the pleats are less pleat-y and the cougar is more visible. Then pull the other end through the loop, still pleated.You only need a couple inches to go through the loop. Then grab the two ends of that pleat and circle them around so they meet, tuck the ends into the loop to complete the circle effect and keep them secure.

Thank you so much for the instructions! I will practice and hopefully, mine will look as pretty as yours.
