So, back in the day when I was a sorrority gal (put that in there for my sister Cindy!) I spent a semester living in Spain. While I was there I fell in love with Hermes scarves. The chic Spanish women wrote them and always looked so stylish. Back then I didn't own anything luxe, not a thing.

After graduating from college I started luxe with a pretty extensive Coach collection that can be found posted in this forum. I graduated to LV and built a huge collection of those as well.

I thought that it would all end with LV. Chanel was definitely not my style at all. You see, I am more of a casual, sometimes trendy, sometimes sporty, sometimes business casual kind of a gal. LV seemed to have it all for me.

Then one day, I saw this very bag and everything changed.

The price point was high, but the same as my most expensive bag, the Mahina XL in gris. I started researching and thinking about what color I would want her in.

Time passed and as usual with my I got side tracked and bought not one, not two, but three other Hermes bags. Nevertheless I knew that this bag would one day be mine.

So, there I was in the boutiques talking to my fabulous SA. We tried on a cute new Picotin PM with lock in Hermes's famous color, Rouge H. The bag was cute and I wanted it but I knew I had to save for Holy Grail.

I chose two twillys and was about to pay when SA told me about a bag that may be available. She offered to check and I started to get excited!

She brought the huge box out and it was still wrapped in shrink wrap which told me I was going to be the first to see the beautiful bag.

When she finally lifted the bag out of the wrapping I gasped, it was sooo beautiful!
