Leather Devotion in the Fantastic Kelly and Birkin Bags by Hermes

The last time I went to France, I promised a friend that I'd bring home a super peachy bag she's always loved. When I finally gave it to her, she bowed down and jokingly recited a psalm of worship -- I'd like to think she was doing it for me and not just the glorious bag.

Although Hermes is accessible in most of the major cities worldwide, there's absolutely nothing like shopping at a local chain in Paris. Thierry Hermes was the builder of this insanely costly brand. Since 1837, Hermes, now famously known as a first-class leather-goods label, has caused a fashion revolution for silk scarves, bags, jewelry, clothes, home decor, luggage, saddles, and other accessories.

An Hermes tote might as well cost you a leg and a foot but, as my friend would always say, it is certainly worth any body part that you can huckster. Some people would ask, what's with all the excitement about Hermes? The Kelly and Birkin totes are classic Hermes designs that mod women constantly lust for. They were named after Grace Kelly and Jane Birkin, both renowned actresses and fashion idols of their time. Who wouldn't want to boogie down the street with these totes on their arms?
