One of the Hermes classic pieces, the Jige clutch is a perfectly elegant and understated clutch made entirely of leather without a single piece of hardware. For the Spring/Summer 2010, the collection is re-introduced in the signature Blue Jean, orange, Honey, black and a dashing yellow. Price starts from USD2,175 for the large size (cheaper [...]
Something from Hermes is never wrong as a gift even if it is just a simple silver heart-shape pendant (with a reference to “H”) with red silk cord. It costs USD500. Not too bad for an Hermes pendant as a Valentine’s gift for your loved one.

About a month ago, I passed by The Hermes store at Liat Tower Orchard Road and standing in the window display was a large Bolide in the best form of the bag I had ever seen so I quickly sent an email to my contact in Hermes to inquire for the size, leather and the [...]
Hi Purseholic
How do I buy a Shooting Star Birkin? I heard it is rare and difficult to get even if you have the money?

Hi Linda
Err… You are not supposed to be able to buy a Shooting Star Birkin or Shooting Star Hermes anything for that matter. A Shooting Star stamp is a signature [...]

Hello Purseholic
Merry Christmas to you all and to all other readers (I hope my email got posted).
I read on the Purseforum that there is no more such thing as a wait-list for Hermes Birkin. Is that true? I have been saving for years to [...]
I am currently reading this book and I have to say, so far I am impressed by the superb writing and story-telling, plots and witty jokes by Michael Tonello. I am not sure how Hermes is taking this book but hey it is a free publicity still, don’t you think? Hermes Birkin is certainly the [...]
As precious and rare as they are, Kelly bags in crocs and ostrich skins are somehow commoditized these days in the arms of rich but unclassy celebs like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. This is a beautiful, classy and very rare Hermes Kelly, made of Pony Hair. The bag is pre-owned and is available at [...]
Hermes Victoria is such a simple and elegant bag from Hermes. The price is reasonable (for a bag from Hermes it is) too. Besides the Bolide, this should be your pre-Kelly bag. Available for EUR2,700 a pop.

This is on the window display of the newly refurbished Hermes Takashimaya at Ngee Ann City Orchard Road, Singapore. Gorgeous Kelly, isn’t it? The Birkin of the similar size costs SGD17,500 here so I guess this one is about the same price as well.

Bluefly is having a 10% discount on this Hermes Bolide 37 in very rare beautiful yellow color. Bolide might not be as high-profile as its Birkin and Kelly counterparts but it is still one of Hermes’ staple bags. The size 37 is one of the most popular and this color is very rare so the [...]
It is like the ultimate messenger bag ever. This is soooo Kelly-ing me…

The outlook of the boutiques are the most updated on this street.
This reached me about 2 weeks but it is only today that I got some time taking the images and posting it. Although I do not fully get most of the things in the magazine, it is still nice seeing the pictures. It is like a high school art magazine project except with much bigger budget, [...]
A few months back, I was smitten by the Hermes Marwari. Although the urge has died down now, I still find this bag uber charming and if not because of something else more important soon, I would have got myself this baby under a minute. The sky blue shade in the Clemence leather is refreshing [...]
For those who know me personally know that I am a loafers / drivers / moccasins guy rather than a sneakers one. I only have one pair of light green Puma for travel and a pair of black Ferragamo in the sneakers department and they are already under-utilised. Hermes might not be most known for [...]
