First off, let’s be real, the *shade* of blue matters. We’re not talking about just any old blue here. We’re talking *light* blue. Think, like, baby blue, maybe a *touch* of turquoise, even. Stuff like “Bleu Hydra” or, you know, just a super pale, almost pastel-y blue. The kind of blue that makes you think of expensive summer days and, ugh, probably yachts.
I saw this one description – “Authentic Hermes Light Blue Epsom Leather Constance 18 Shoulder Bag” – and it just, like, screamed “I cost more than your rent.” But honestly, the Constance is a cute bag, especially in that little 18 size. It’s a shoulder bag, so you can actually *use* it, unlike some of those tiny Birkins that are basically just fancy wrist weights. And the silver hardware? *Chef’s kiss*.
Then you get into the Birkins. The “Hermès Birkin 25 Togo Blue Nuit” thing threw me off at first, because “Nuit” means night, so I was expecting a *dark* blue. Maybe they messed up the description? Happens. Anyway, Birkins in general are just… iconic, right? And light blue just makes them feel less *serious*. More fun. Less “I’m a billionaire’s wife” and more “I’m a cool art collector who just happens to have a trust fund.” Or at least, that’s the vibe I’m getting.
Oh, and don’t even get me started on the Lindy! That’s the one with the slouchy shape, right? Imagine *that* in a light blue. Ugh, so chic. So effortlessly cool. You could totally throw a Lindy on with jeans and a t-shirt and look like you stepped out of a magazine. (As long as you don’t look like *I* do in jeans and a t-shirt, lol).
Okay, so, here’s the thing. Light blue bags are, like, *trendy*. They have been for a while. But here’s my two cents: they’re also kinda timeless. They’re not as in-your-face as, say, a bright orange bag. They’re subtle. Sophisticated. And they go with, like, *everything*.
