      Hey Mel I am more interested in the Picotin and the Victoria (I personally don’t like the Kelly or Birkin) is there a list or a procedure for those bags too? Or can I just walk in? I have a long family purchase history at Hermes but not an individual one...thanks!

    This lady is a wealth of information. I am so glad that she debunked that myth about epsom leather. My SA also told me that epsom scratches can absolutely be repaired. She advised that should I have questions in the future to ask the leather specialists at my local boutique instead of watching videos by people who are not experts (as I clearly am not!), are likely not even serious collectors and probably have only a few years of experience buying the brand. She really schooled me!!!

    I desagree with Marianne’s answer on how to get a Birkin or Kelly. I bought my Birkin in Deauville (France), one year ago, and I hadn’t purchase anything from Hermès before. I just walked into the store actually looking for a Bastia coin purse, had a lovely chat with the sales associate, told her I had always wanted a Birkin. She told me « oh, then I have something to show you ». I waited like 5 minutes and she came back with a big orange box, she told me it had just arrived. And that’s how I got my first Hermès bag !

    • @brokegirl123

    This was fantastic! 45 minutes went nowhere. Marianne is a gold mine of information and so elegant. I agree with her about the box leather. I have heard it is fussy to care for but so is lambskin and people buy that in huge numbers. I have looked at so many photos of vintage Kellys online and the modern leathers are pretty and practical but I keep going back to the box leather. It’s the original Kelly leather and has so much history attached to it and it’s so luxurious looking.

My mom, sis, and I walked into a flagship. We happen to talk to the manager of the store. Next thing you know, she brought out a croc Constance in black as well as an ostrich Constance in pink. Plus kelly backpack among other bags! Needless to say my sister and mom was in bag heaven and ended up buying three or four bags that day.

    I especially like that the shoulder strap of that ostrich bag doesn't show even when it is worn in the crook of the arm or carried by the short handle. I also love the vintage watches and that silver bracelet with the bag-charms. So lovely.

    This is my fav video on your channel! I love that her collection has pre-owned pieces, they look even better than the new ones we stress over in the stores, Every bag becomes pre owned the second we walk out of the store......

    Just like me my first Hermes Piece was a scarf - my Dad bought them for my mum (back then available on board of airplanes), I loved them and got my first when I was 14!
    And up till today I also hand them items to repair

    I feel like it’s also interesting to note the reason why the Birkin bag took inspiration so much from the HAC, was made because Jane Birkin’s then partner Serge Gainsbourg carried around an HAC, and Jane Birkin mentioned it to Mr. Dumas that they should do a similar bag like that but smaller.
    Technically it all comes around to Serge Gainsbourg for using the HAC so much.

    A bright different colour insert is an absolute must that you should factor into the expense of buying a quality bag. And I love wrapping the handles - ageing of leather can be lovely but sticky sweat stained handles not so much lol.
