I unexpectedly spent nearly an hour going through the links at the very fun and colourful Hermès website yesterday. The website is filled with illustration by children book illustrator Alice Charbin.

It really does feel like reading a children’s book, except this one is telling a story with expensive scarfs, bags and other accessories.

If the idea is to get the customer to stay long enough to find something they like, then they succeeded because I left the website with a yearning for an Hermès Offrandes d’un Jour silk twill scarf.

Shhh! They don’t know it yet, but I am dumping my moggies for a chi-chi french poodle to match the red Hermes Kelly(or Birkin?)-inspired pet carrier from Cece Kent!

Okay, just kidding!!! :D
