You Know You're Addicted to Hermes When

[surfchick]

Ok, here’s the trick, but it really works better with bags smaller than 35. I keep a shawl in my bag when I travel. The bag goes on the seat with me and “we” are both buckled in together with the shawl over “us”. Good to go!

I do this too!

1. You see a parked car and of all the things you can think about your first thought is "this is exactly what bleu de prusse looks like in box calf." And then you add, as if to defend to yourself your initial observation, "because in togo there's not much green undertone so..."

2. You spend an inordinate amount of time on IG, looking through tagged posts. #hermeshomme #menwithhermes #hermesworld #hermesfans. You hate it when the tag is littered by vendors of H replicas so you go on blocking them, and for some reason you feel powerful and righteous. "That'll teach them. One less pair of eyeballs," you say to yourself.

3. You're thinking of an SO but you don't know if the colors would work so you download an app to recolorize a picture of an H bag with these particular colors you like. When your friends ask why you have been quiet in the group chat for hours you say you're busy because, uhm, you were reading a book. They just wouldn't understand. In fact, you know in your heart it's better to say you're watching porn than to admit you're obsessively shading a picture of a bag in very specific shades of blue.

So relatable, especially #1. So much so that my grey car is referred to as Etain (looking at you @Ang-Lin).

I plead the fifth on how I handle my smaller H bags on the plane. Let's just say that some flight attendants turn a blind eye on creative H bag storage during take off and landing.

Do you put it on your lap? I put bags that are flatter behind me or squeezed into the side by the window and a shawl over it but a B or L is awkward for that.

B or L can be on one's lap with a blanket over an old scarf.

My Bs fit on the seat next to me. I carry mostly 25s now but I’ve done this with 30s too. [emoji1360]

This! And I almost pulled the trigger on the L26 noir this morning. And the ghost charm.

Haha! I saw the L26 too and was wondering how long it was gonna last online!

It’s a great book, I bought one myself [emoji3]

 

[Lilikay]

You love your bags so much that you them out of their boxes and line them up at your bedroom furniture, so you can see them first thing in the morning!

When DH is away over night, putting your B on the chest of drawers at the end of the bed because looking at it makes you happy and therefore helps you sleep better...can’t believe I’m admitting this!

ahem, I do the very same thing.

I’m not sure this counts, but I walked into a store yesterday to purchase some ribbon and was confronted with assorted Halloween decor. My initial response was, “Boy....they've sure desecrated orange.”
