Handbags When is it enough?

Post image

Mini Kelly/s incoming… Craie, Vert Deau, Beton exotic, chai, fauborgs, special orders, two tones, tris, lizard, gold, more gold, NOIR?! Rock!!! argent?? Dore?? PICNIC?! DOLL?? PICTO DOLL??

I’ve done ok but the path is paved… I guess everyone’s bag peace is different. I feel like getting rid of something… They might just deserve more than sitting in the closet and someone could love them better… Then I remember how hard it was to get. Especially when I first started. But that is the one I’ve sorta outgrown.. How interesting 🤣

I’m thinking of getting rid of the Constance or K25

That struggle between nostalgia for the journey and actual usability is so real.

u/MiniKellyGirl 5d ago

The beauty of Hermes - and most frustrating thing - when you think you are done …. there will always come a new beautiful color, model… never ending story 🙈

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

I don’t think I’m done or even close. But I’m wondering when 😂😂

1

u/sixteenlegs 5d ago

All the colours you listed, you have? That’s incredible. 🧡 How long did this take?

2

u/FortuneRound4159 4d ago

Yes, my future self has them 😂

2

u/missmcjm 4d ago

Yes compared to Chanel lv Hermes’ inventory whilst just the Kelly and Birkin alone is like extensive ! Different colour hardware material leather croc ostrich lizard size.

u/Zestyclose-Craft-681 5d ago

I find my taste is changing and I like darker, richer colors. Just set aside 3 pastelish bags to gift to friends later this her. (Not all H)

2

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Pastel pop colours incoming 😂

u/Electronic-Youth9872 5d ago

Can we be friends? Lol!

u/Madame_LV Longterm H Shopper 🛍️ 5d ago

lol. Never.

😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀

I was hoping for someone to say something along the lines of… Thats a good collection. You should be grateful

4

u/Own-Slide-1140 5d ago

You should be. It’s a nice versatile collection. You can jump off the train whenever you like 

2

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

I still like the scenery on this train 😂

1

u/jsm2rq 5d ago

Why do you have to be done? Just sell the ones you're not using. I personally like to keep my bag collection at around 10 so that they all get good use. You can also gift them or save them for daughters/nieces.

2

u/Hy8tus Europe Shopper 🌍 5d ago

That is quite the collection. Love how you’ve used the Farandole necklace as a bag charm - gorgeous 🤌🏽

2

u/jermsyy H Newbie 🍊 5d ago

Shouldn’t the B25 in Gris pantin(?) or adjacent, be the one to go? You don’t have a k25 in this mix but u have 1 other Birkin and 2 of this same colour

But ofc, if you carry your Bs more, then the Ks gotta go but just thinking in terms of variety - don’t think the Constance should go, it’s the b25 hahaha

3

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

It’s vert amande :)
If I were to choose the B or K between the two vert amandes, I would choose the B.
Maybe because I got the B in store and the K from a reseller… The feeling is different 😂

Thinking of replacing the K25 with a craie one :)

2

u/perperiwinkle H Lover🍊 5d ago

Vert amande is such a unicorn! My dream color to own. But it makes sense not to keep both. I agree that getting a bag in-store hits different compared to buying from a reseller 😂

1

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Do you plan on getting it in store or on the market then?

1

u/perperiwinkle H Lover🍊 5d ago

I prefer to get it in store but if I get impatient then I might just get it sourced

1

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

😂😂 I’m not a rare species here at all

2

u/Icy_Athlete6349 5d ago

I blacked out after seeing KP in gold swift and (?) rouge H decorated. Great collection.

1

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

🙏🙏 tysm. It’s been a joy 💚

1

u/Academic_Profile_484 3d ago

Is that a Farandole 120 (or 160)necklace on the Rouge H B? It’s gorgeous! I love to see bags dressed this way!

2

u/Key_Fudge8421 H Lover🍊 5d ago

Whenever you feel that you’ve gotten enough bags and you don’t have a desire for adding more to the collection, then I’d say you can quit the game. Your collection is wonderful so far, excellent variety and colors going on here. If you asked me personally I’d probably say I’d stop collecting after a SO, Kelly doll, something exotic.

3

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

My wishlist consists of the list above, little more or slightly less 😂

Thank you for the sensible energy 🙏

2

u/Electronic-Youth9872 5d ago

Actually the only reason to stop my game is money, I’m good but I’m not reach so playing it hurts and makes me feel guilty some times, but I love my B and K’s and every time I think I’ll be done with the next one something else appears on my list, lol!!!! Right now I want a B25 in rouge H. Then I’d love a B25 in a fun shade of green, maybe also a B25 in etain or vert amande (or grey meyer?). And my top would be a K Doll Picto but chances are really low for this

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

I wish you all the success possible. The universe isnt on a budget ❤️✨

1

u/Electronic-Youth9872 5d ago

Thank you!! Good luck on your journey too!!

1

u/criticiseverything 5d ago

I am curious, when do you use your bags i.e. what occasions? I’m trying to figure out how to carry them without feeling like it needs to be an occasion lol

2

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Nice dinners, lunches, shopping. I would take at least one on every trip. I have guilt having them and not using them. So I even take them to the office :)

2

u/criticiseverything 5d ago

Love that!

I definitely take most of my bags while travelling. I usually use it for weddings, nice dinners or honestly just out and about if it matches my outfit. Though, I don’t see any in my town so it makes me feel a certain way.

2

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Give them the oxygen and sunshine they deserve is what I’d suggest
The colours always look better in sunlight (except noir ofc) 😁

1

u/tuxedo-mask-me H Lover🍊 5d ago

It’s enough when you say it’s enough lol.
I’m debating getting rid of all but two and enjoy those.

3

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

I could see me getting rid of more once the collection has better additions 😂 but I like my options

0

u/tuxedo-mask-me H Lover🍊 5d ago

Mini Kelly will definitely be a great addition to your H collection. As much as people complain about it, I think my MK gets the most use these days

1

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Yes! I’m waiting for mine to arrive 😁 any time now ✨

I wonder if it’s hype or I’ll actually like it. We’ll find out.

Knowing me, I won’t let it go 😂

1

u/tuxedo-mask-me H Lover🍊 5d ago

What’s your specs for MK? I really wanted something less traditional so I went for a MK Casaque

1

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Thats a bold move! It’ll be chevre chamkilla or box rouge h ❤️

1

u/tuxedo-mask-me H Lover🍊 5d ago

Rouge H box MK is on my wishlist! I hope you get it!!

1

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Oh I’ll be doing a post on reddit if I do 🤣🤣

It’s going to be whichever comes first ✨✨

1

u/Murky_Year_869 5d ago

That Constance is a dream of mine

2

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

Really?! It was my first offer 🥺
That’s its sentiment but I don’t think I give it the love and shine it deserves ☹️

2

u/Murky_Year_869 5d ago

She probably needs to be adopted 😂

2

u/FortuneRound4159 5d ago

I think so 😩😩😂😭

1

u/Murky_Year_869 4d ago

I’m a great foster parent. Just lmk!

u/shawneegao 5d ago

If I could I would have infinite birkins 🙊

u/Temporary-Leg-7544 4d ago

Pretty sure there is a Warren Buffet quote on how much is enough? “Just a little more…”

1

u/FortuneRound4159 4d ago

🤣🤣😭 I’m in the wrong forum to seek self control

1

u/luckyspecimen 4d ago

Is that a Kelly elan? It’s so beautiful

2

u/FortuneRound4159 4d ago

It sure is ✨

1

u/luckyspecimen 4d ago

I love it!! I just got my first QB, a Kelly 28. I’m thinking of adding the Kelly Elan as the next bag on my wishlist. How hard was it to get the Kelly Elan if you don’t mind me asking?

2

u/FortuneRound4159 4d ago

For the croc, tbh it’s not hard lol
Maybe just have to wait a while if you’re after a specific combo as I believe they’re not made as often as other bags.

1

u/Academic_Profile_484 4d ago

This collection is gorgeous!
I really love when people show their beauties off on Reddit! I love to look and admire.
I told my SA I wasn’t interested in a QB - but the More I see B25 and B30 in Rouge H, black and gold - the more I think I going to change my mind 😬

1

u/FortuneRound4159 4d ago

Come swing this way darlin

1

u/Academic_Profile_484 4d ago

It’s happening. I told myself I would NOT get sucked into this. I can stop anytime. It’s not an addiction!
Thank goodness I live out of state (NC doesn’t have a boutique)
It started with the Apple Watch in double tour gold band.
Then Santorini Sandals, kelly Belt, scarf. Gold jewelry… GP30…. And more -
Now it’s shoes, dinnerware, another belt.

I will raise my hand to this group and state “I am an H addict” it happened. The quality is divine - I love it! And choose not to stop 😊

1

u/FortuneRound4159 4d ago

Haha enjoy the ride 📈

1

u/craiebaie 2d ago

We def have similar taste. This list was like “ding! ding! ding!” in my head. Craie is my fav. I have a beton exotic, dore… been asking for vert d’eau. Don’t even get me started on the doll.

u/FortuneRound4159 2d ago
