Once in a while when i feel that i have been very very good, i will reward myself by doing something bad such as walking into a Hermes store and walk out poorer with an orange paper bag.  Admittedly this does not happen often but I have so far bought an orange Epson cardholder (which i love to the core, can’t live without and best investment ever!) and black Padova bracelet. The thing about my Hermes purchases is i never planned for one and it turns out to be the best.

When i passed by Takashimaya Hermes store last weekend, i was distracted by a bag that i hope to end up with next. Afterall, one should start adding a bag from Hermes into one’s humble collection somehow, no? The distracting bag is Hermes Marwari and the one i tried on was in full rich brown leather (I think Togo). The Marwari is so gorgeous that i literally did not really care much about the  fact that there was a SGD17,400 Birkin 50 available in store without wait-list. Will I do anything bad again anytime soon? It depends on how very very good i will be for the next few months. We’ll see… the Hermes section of my wardrobe is still awefully empty. Maybe when i visit HK next in November? I am flushing orange just thinking about it.
