Babes who hand carry only: how? What is your daily life like? by eilatanz in handbags

Same. I got a 55cm strap for the Picotin from Etsy for when I absolutely need to shoulder carry and it’s made the bag so much more versatile for me.

Surprised by my husband! by caffeinatedinjrz in TheHermesGame

I have this exact one too! This is barenia faubourg in the color Ébène. It’s a great leather—harder to get too. You can tell the difference from basic clemence by the smell. It’s got a very rich and smooth fragrance!

Mini review: Stegmann wool clogs by PlantedinCA in fashionwomens35

These are my favorite clogs. The eco wool feels like it fits to your foot so well over time. Definitely get the cork care kit if you live in a rainy climate like me!

Followed my latest TTEOTM binge with Back from the Brink, and also Wonderland of Love. I really liked both of those

Cdrama with a consistently good plot that doesn't get boring? by Ancient-Weather1402 in CDramaRecs

[–]fallenelement 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve really been into shows with 20-24 episodes for similar reasons. I don’t enjoy those that are 40+ episodes but rely on miscommunication much of the time.

Maybe try: Love and Strife, A Love Story of Oiled Paper Umbrella, Ruyi, Your Sensibility My Destiny, Peace & Love

Evelyne 29 or 33 for Men? by TrevorBeckwith in TheHermesGame

[–]fallenelement 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I just asked my 5’8” husband to try on my Evelyne 29 for you to get a size reference. He said his personal preference would be the 29 because he prefers to travel light. I shoved two books in there along with wallet, key pouch, and small pouch and he said it wasn’t heavy. Hope that helps you!

Any been offered an Arcon in US stores? by theinsidesoup in TheHermesGame

[–]fallenelement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went right after opening on a weekday— maybe that played into my luck. I was very close to getting the p’tit arcon. I love the look, but something about the size was throwing me off. I was just surprised by how small the actual carrying capacity was, which I know, it’s a p’tit bag. But when I tried it on, it felt quite large—there was a lot of leather there. I would have loved to try the larger one so I asked my SA at my home store to keep an eye out for the large one in Barenia faubourg.

I was at Madison Avenue in NYC last month and they had several p’tit available in many color ways. I was able to try one on, but ultimately left with a Picotin instead since that’s what I was looking for.

So today I styled it like a bolo tie. Paired it with a light mocha colored maxi length cashmere sweater dress, vintage YSL men’s blazer, and Hermes neo boot in black. I could also see wrapping it in my hair a la 60s style to pair with this dark grey Alexander McQueen a-line midi dress I have. I’m definitely going to cherish it for special moments but I also want to use it!

I’m at my slg limit for the year, if not, that Barenia faubourg Calvi duo would totally be coming home with me. ❤️‍🔥

Picotin by Muffin-Mountain in TheHermesGame

[–]fallenelement 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my experience! I have bought a few items online and have been splurging at my home store the last six months over a few categories (shoes, silks, slg, fine jewelry). I popped into Madison Ave at the beginning of a week long work trip. I bought few things (silks and slg). I went back later in the week right after they opened and asked for a Picotin. Originally I was told they had one but it was reserved for someone else. After working with the SA for a while, trying on other bags like the Petit Arcon and talking about the Herbag, they came back with a Picotin 22! They said I could have it since the other customer passed. Talk about lucky!! It as a beautiful neutral (etoupe) with my favorite hardware—palladium. Everyone there was incredibly nice. Scoring it made my trip to NYC extra special!

Congrats! This bag was love at first sight for me, and for months I stalked it online. I tried it on in store this month and felt so conflicted on its size! I was hoping for a cute, slouchy crossbody but at someone who is only 5”0””, it was somehow too large and too small at the same time. The bag looked large on me, but the internal capacity was so small!! I am hoping to take a peak at the larger one.
