Fairy Tale of Luxury - Hermès Website

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.

Practically Beautiful - J’tote Laptop Bags

J’tote laptop bags have the right combination of ruggedness and exotic beauty. I love the dark brown organic leather with bamboo handle of Melania and the gorgeous floral motifs of Grainne. Selected styles from their fall collection are also on sale.
