Hermes Shoppers - Explain the purchase process for me.

They look old lady to me. And yes, please donate more to women’s shelters.

I have spent thousands on scarves in dc and Paris, and the DC SA actually recognized me last time. I also got a couple enamel bracelets, but I have never found the shopping experience anything other than normal attentive service one would expect at a luxury store. But I don’t buy big ticket items and I have no desire to buy any of their leather goods as I prefer ferragamo style. But, I can’t do without my scarves. I have easily 20 and they are a staple of my middle age wardrobe.

Ok, help a sister out. How do you wear these. I love scarves but never purchase nice ones bc I’m unsure how to tie them.

Google “how to tie an Hermes scarf.” I use the scarf art app as well. Sit in front of the mirror and experiment. Hermes scarves are a tight twill so they fold, bunch and spread very differently from other scarves. Over the years I have found certain styles I like. And a scarf ring helps a lot. Also, you have to tie the scarf in a way that is flattering. I have an average length neck and a large just, but I am tall. Women who are slim, high necked and small busted have more choices with scarves.

I tend to buy clothes to match my scarves, crazy. But my clothes tend to be monochromatic and boring, so my scarves are my thing and they make me happy.

This comment wins as most gross of the thread. That term alone makes me stabby.

I'm carrying his child and we make more money than we can spend. We do big things like this for each other once every 5 years. I'd love to hear your suggestions on how else to waste $20,000. At least the Birkin is an investment and will hold its value!

So you’re saying you never get gifts from your spouse? You donate to a women’s shelter every birthday, Anniversary, kids birthdays, etc? What about when you go to buy a new car. Instead of spending $30k I should assume you spend $10k and donate $20k to a shelter instead of getting a nicer car?

Birkin lady isn't spending 30k on a car. Ha! Her purse costs more than that.

You can do both. You don’t only have to give a woman’s shelter. Am I not a good person because I donated to a woman’s shelter and bought a Birkin? Would I be a better person for just donating instead of buying and donating?

The one PP asked for suggestions as to how to “waste” 20K. Someone else provided a far better way.
