Hi guys and I’m back with another Hermes review. I know some of you guys on here are very sick of this brand, and I get it—they’re total snobs. But as a bag lover, their craftsmanship, leather choice, and repair service is pretty hard to beat. Anyway I’m going to be reviewing the Slim Arcon and the Petit Arcon today.

Hi all, sorry for neglecting this space for a bit. But I’ve been really working on making video bag reviews lately. I’m not sure if you guys caught my last review of the Delvaux Coolbox MM vs Mini, but I thought I would do a quick recap here for those who prefer to read their reviews.

First off, I should mention I have never owned the 24/24 in the 21 size so take my review with a grain of salt (I’ve just tried it on at the RealReal in Marin). But I have the 29 size (in Etain Togo and Swift leather from 2020) and I have to say, I don’t like it.

When I wrote my review on the Cartier Juste Un Clou ring, I thought that ring wasn’t all that. And I thought that was a one off. So I had high high hopes for my next Cartier purchase. So what did I think? Is the Cartier Love ring worth it to me?

When I first got the The Row Margaux 15 I was in loooove, even though it wasn’t a practical bag for me (see my review of The Row Margaux 15 here). And I thought my problems would be solved with the Margaux 10. Well almost a year after I wrote my Margaux 15 review I got my hands on a relatively well priced Margaux 10. So did I love it as much as I thought I would?

For those who follow me on Instagram, you know I’ve been a fan of this bag since the day I got it. I teased it, then did a Reel on it, and then posted about the Songmont price increase, but have yet to do a full review of it here. So I apologize for the delay but better late than never I guess?

I was considering adding this to my already lengthy Quince Fine Jewelry Review post, but I thought this could be it’s own ever-growing post since I’m really in love with Quince’s lab grown diamond jewelry.

On a recent trip to Oahu, I was able to get away for a couple of hours of luxury reconnaissance. I visited Loewe, Bottega, Celine, Coach, and Valextra, to try out some of their pieces as well as learn of any “Hawaii prices” (usually a bit lower than the mainland US pricing). I have a 2025 Hawaii Luxury Shopping guide here, where I’ve bolded my April updates.
