Ladies, show me your Hermes.

My husband has the cologne. He bought it in France although it's available anywhere. I love the smell. Murphy in my avatar gets a spritz after every bath. That's it for me and Hermes.

Madam Bijoux could fill pages of a thread with her Hermès alone.

I only have a few bracelets. I have been wanting a Birkin for years now. I visit the Hermes shop every time we travel to a city that has one and have only ever found one shop that had one to sell. Unfortunately, it was the alligator version and I just couldn't justify spending that much on a bag.

In hindsite, I wish that I would have bought it since many of them appreciate and sell for more in the second hand market.

Maybe some of your that have them would be willing to share your secret strategies!

I remember Madame Bijoux buys from the store but as I'm in the UK, my closest are in London and it's impossible to get a bag there unless you're a VIP. So I buy from resellers in France, in fact, I just scored a dream bag that way!

Like with diamonds, shop for your seller first! If you'd rather try the store and get one that way, the way to go is either build a relationship with a SA in your nearest store first and show an interest in the brand, don't go in and ask. Apparently one needs to play the game by purchasing other items first, scarves, fragrances, small leather goods, jewellery and so on THEN if you're lucky, you might get offered a bag.

Or go to Paris and keep trying the Mothership. Some get lucky that way and keep an open mind if you're offered a bag - obviously don't accept one you don't love but just keep an open mind if you are offered a bag in a colour you hadn't previously considered.

I think if you can though and want to buy from a store, a relationship with a SA will get you a very long way.

All talk and no

can’t get to them now. But just a leather bracelet and a scarf. Can’t plop down that kind of $$$ on a bag. Just can’t. But the collectors love them.

 

[dkata]

I have a few scarves and a twilly, and a perfume. I just can’t get myself to spend that much on a bag, and I have to admit I don’t really like any of their styles, except the Birkin, which is almost impossible to get. So no other Hermes items for me, only silk scarves.

 

[canuk-gal]

HI:

I also have a couple of scarves. As much as I love the bags, they are out of "my league". But I want to see everyone else's!!!

cheers--Sharon

 

[Madam Bijoux]

I thought you would never ask! (You might be sorry you did ask.)

Ready for their quarterly leather maintenance / polishing. Mr Alexiszoe loves doing it more than me. So I usually leave it to him

That's some collection.

 

[MaisOuiMadame]

@Madam Bijoux I want to be you when I'm grown up!!!!

 

[lyra]

Wow, I was blinded by the fantastic bling from Madam Bijoux! Was not expecting that!

I remembered that I do have a Hermes item. I have a sterling silver coffee spoon that my husband found on the ground. I joked with him that I should have a pin added and wear it as a brooch. I'm classy like that.

 

[luv2sparkle]

Madam Bijoux's collection is so fabulous and so way out of my league. I am thankful she shares it with us because I would probably never see it any other way. I would be way to intimidated to even step foot into a store.

 

[Madam Bijoux]

Many thanks, everyone

MB, your Hermes collection is a joy to look at, one bag is more beautiful than the next. Classic and elegant and just fabulous. The china and scarves are stunning. And of course your bling collection is to die for as well - agree with luv, thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous things with us.
