I’ve been poking around online, because who hasn’t had a daydream about owning a Birkin, even if you only fill it with, like, old receipts and half-eaten granola bars? The dream is the dream, people!
So, what’s the deal with buying Hermes? Well, first, there’s the official online store. They’re pushing shorts and pants, apparently. I mean, okay. Hermes shorts. Probably cost more than my rent. I saw something about “malhas e sarjas femininas” too – which, let’s be real, I had to Google Translate. Knits and twills, basically. Sounds fancy, feels like it’s gonna itch. Just my luck.
Then you got… parcels in the UK? I’m kinda lost on why that’s in the same search results, but maybe they’re just good at logistics? You know, moving all those extremely expensive leather goods around the world. Makes sense, I guess.
Ah! Cashmere. Now we’re talking. Lenços e xales – scarves and shawls. That I can get behind. Imagine swanning around in a Hermes cashmere shawl. You could probably get away with wearing pajamas underneath. Nobody would even notice. They’d just be blinded by the sheer *expensive-ness* of your scarf. Okay, maybe not. But a girl can dream, right?
And then there’s the L’ecrin Boutique in Singapore. They seem to have everything. ALL the collections. Fashion accessories, scarves and ties (for the men, I guess. Or… very stylish women?), belts, ready-to-wear… perfumes, watches, jewelry. Basically, if you have a spare kidney to sell, you could probably deck yourself out head to toe.
Honestly, trying to “buy Hermes” is kinda… daunting. It’s like, where do you even START? It’s not like popping down to Target. It’s a whole *experience*. Probably involves white gloves and hushed tones.
Personally, I’m thinking start small. Maybe a lipstick? A keychain? Something that won’t require me to remortgage my house. And then, you know, slowly work my way up to that Birkin. Someday. Maybe. If I win the lottery. Or find a really, really good coupon.
But even just window shopping online… it’s kinda fun. You get to imagine yourself as someone totally different. Someone who has their life together. Someone who owns a Birkin and fills it with… I don’t know… diamonds and unicorn tears?
