Hermes Alternatives

Some of you wrote to me last week and told me that you've resigned to the fact that an Hermes Birkin is just too expensive to pull off as a real one in your lives (hey man, welcome to the club).  You wanted Hermes bags but you did not want Birkin stigma.

I have alternatives for you!

Hermes doesn't just make a Kelly bag and a Birkin.  They have tons of other bags too.  They are super, duper pricey as well but man, do they ever look gorgeous.  And because they are not as distinctive as a Birkin or a Kelly bag and not in anywhere near the same demand, they don't get labelled "gotta be a replica" as quickly as the popular makes.

One of the best things about Hermes bags is the variety of colours.  I wrote about this in my Birkin post as well.  This bag alone comes in 6 colours. 

Under normal conditions, I'd post all 6 colours for you but my computer is doing a back up right now.  I left my old job last week and I had to give back a work computer (that I used unabashedly for handbags).  I had to transfer 80,000 images (no joke) to effing discs and then transfer those same 80,000 images my home laptop (which is what I should have backed up on to a long ass time ago but never got around to it). 

Naturally, the MOST important disc with my working pics, labelled from letters D-H (ummm, CHANEL!!, CHLOE!!, DIOR!!, DOLCE GABBANA!!, FENDI!! HERMES!!) is messed up.  It did not copy properly, sector this, has bad something or another and now is not readable.  Arghhhh.  I am currently installing a software that will hopefully be able to extract the corrupted data so that I can breathe again.

Drama, drama, drama.  Now even discs give me a hard time!

Happy Shopping!!
