This was super helpful, thanks for the tips. I'm heading to Oahu next month and your video helped ease some anxieties I was having about even bringing up interest in purchasing a B or K when I head to the boutiques.
@@lolipena8051 No, unfortunately I did not :( I ended up asking at the very end of my shopping but was told that they were not getting any in stock at the moment (but I assume this is what they tell ppl a lot of time). I did get the SA's information for next time and he said to send a wishlist before I visit next time, but that was as far as I got!
I love going into Hermes stores. I just feel so special stepping foot in them. They are wonderful. I subscribed to your channel, and cannot wait to see your videos.
Thank you for sharing~! Hopefully one day I can visit Hawaii again and finally step foot in Hermès 🥰 as for the twilly on the bag, I think it depends on the mood you’re going with - for a more cute look, with twilly! While without, it would be more serious - but yet could be casual looking too - I suppose it’s more versatile 😝
Hey Katie, I just referred your video to a TH-camr who actually lives in Paris but can’t seem to get her dream bag because the locals have to try their luck with the Leather Appointment System 🥺
I would be so intimidated to even mention about a Kelly, Birkin, or Constance bag. It seems like the unspoken names in the store, but not sure if it's a different culture in Hawaii. I'm planning to head to Hawaii in a few months and am thinking of visiting the store. There is absolutely no luck in CA, so I don't even bother. I might have missed it, but when you starting talking about the colors of bags, did the SA ask you about your wish list or did you directly tell them what style of the bags you are looking for (B or K)? I don't want to go in sounding silly like I'm asking for a B or K when I'm just going to be a tourist there. Also, what time of the year did you visit?
Yes, I mentioned general bags and sizes as well as colors. I think it helps to stop by the boutique a few times, first purchasing other items you love and then exploring the topic of bags for a future visit 😉
I just went to Hawaii and got the chance to visit Hermès. I didn’t ask for a B or K but I’ve got a bolide in gris perle that I love! Their inventory for everything is absolutely great. We bought shoes, jewelry and silk pieces. Next time, I will ask the big question. Ha ha Thanks for your video and I love the bow actually. I put twilly on my bags because I really want to keep the handles in a great condition.
Really helpful. Hoping to try my luck as well. Which boutique in Oahu would you recommend? And should I make appointment before or just do a walk in? I like the twilly on the Kelly. It’s just understated enough and agree with you that it doesn’t need to be on all the time. But if you’re wearing a cute dress I think it’s a nice addition.
I personally shop at the Waikiki boutique, but I’ve been to both Waikiki and Ala Moana 💕 if it’s your first time, you can just walk in! And once you know know an SA you can schedule appointments ✨
Thank you for this video. I would love a yellow or orange or green. If not a gold or grey would be fine. Now I know how to approach. I’m still not sure how to ask. But I did like that they expect to be asked as they know you’re not there long. Thankfully flights from Oregon are cheap.
Katie enjoyed your video on Hawaii Hermes tips, not seen one yet. Helpful tips. Do you know if Constance 18 is a quota bag in Hawaii? Going there in the fall. Going to Paris in April hoping to score one there. Do you still have your Constance, I saw your video. 🇨🇦
Congrats! My friend tried everything was sold out in Hawaii 😭. Omg now I know what touch is! My SA in NYC said she had touch but was like 25k? 🥲 how much was your bag dear!
@@moeekayi oh my! I got confused on the video 😅 did you watch my Hawaii Haul video where I reveal my K25 Touch? The price is in that video description 🙏🏻 but it was $15.9k before tax
Hi Katie! So envious of your hauls! I have a question tho. Did u connect with an SA ahead of time before going to Hawaii or u met and just clicked with an SA there? Going in a month and was hoping to get lucky also!
I bought my B25 at the Waikiki boutique. I live in California and she is my only Hermes SA. I've continued to purchase Hermes items from her since we met March 2021. She's great!
@Suzy Q I live in Hawaii a few months out of the year and I’m thinking of just having that store be my store as I my city doesn’t have a large boutique. Do you mind sharing your SA’s name? Hope you’re enjoying your bag!
@@lolipena8051 I asked if any were available when I went into the store. I went back a few hours later and bought a couple of items and the next day got a text about a bag.
I am usually a twilly fan for the Bs and Ks but not on yours, your bag has the special exotic touch so the twilly would take away from your bag imo. Great tips, thanks for the video!
Love your videos. I hate to say this, but I don’t care for the Twilly on the touch. I feel like the exotics are next level and the Twilly doesn’t give do it justice.
Great tips! Do you know if they still ship items over $10k to mainland US? They used to do that during the store close but I heard they stopped doing that.
I could have missed this in the beginning but did you use your own profile in Hawaii. I know you said your SA encouraged you to shop there but I can't remember if you said you used your profile. Re twilly on the touch...I prefer it without!
I'm conflicted -- on one hand, I like Hermes bags; on the other, the game seems contrived and silly. I'll just get replicas when I really crave for them. The replicas literally have the same leather, hardware, etc.
I am leaning towards no on the bow as well, maybe you can occasionally wrap it around the handle to change the styling? This is a really informative video hopefully it helps all those who are shopping in Hawaii and everywhere else.
Why am I so into these informations when I don’t have any plans to buy those bags 😂. Thank you for your video on their housewares, it helped me to really go get one and I was so lucky that I got the illusive sushi plate from the Waikiki boutique.
Amazing 😍 once you fall into the world of Hermes, even if you don't have any plans to get something (like equestrian stuff), you get enthralled to know more ✨
I believe I share more of those details in my Birkin videos, since that was the first one I got. But in a nutshell, it was a combination of a handbag, home goods, and shoes really!

the LYXBAG would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
Re-watching this video after watching your recent Hawaii Hermes unboxing…. Planning a trip this summer so hopefully it’ll be a great experience….
You'll have a great time ✨
Hi Katie, I like the twilly and it makes it look cute. Heading to Oahu in 3 weeks. Is there an SA that you’d recommend? Thanks for the helpful tips
I adore the ribbon on that bag!
It is such a cute print 😍
Really happy for you, the bag looks much nicer without the twilly imo
It does add a special touch to it ✨💕
Good tips! Thank you! I do like the twilly as a bow- it’s cute!
Glad you found it helpful 💕

Definitely ease into it, but don’t be anxious! It might not happen, but always worth a shot in my opinion 😉💕
Hey Christine did you score anything? Also did you just flat out asked for one or ask to be on a wishlist?

I think exotic touch is enough decoration on ur kelly!
Yeah, seeing the playback on the video, I think it looks better without ✨
Wow such a gorgeous piece 😍😍
Thank you so much 💕

Indeed, I will have to explore with and without depending on my mood 😉thank you so much 💕
It looks better without the bow. The bag looks gorgeous!!!
Thank you so much 💕
Love the kelly touch with that twilly!
🍬 🍭💕
I’m sending this to my husband for our summer trip!
Perfect nudge ✨
AMAZING TIPS! Thank you ☺️
Glad you found them helpful 💕
So beautiful Kelly! I’m going in Hawaii in Feb. I’m excited to visit Hermes there, hopefully I’ll get lucky to get a Kelly or Birkin!!
Good luck 💕
Menchie did you score anything? Also how did you approach on asking?

Great video! Thanks for the advice!
Glad it was helpful 💕
Thanks for the video. I vote no bow on the kelly. It’s so edgy and the bow doesn’t really go imho.
Thanks for sharing 💕 I think I'm leaning towards no too... 🤔
I just went to Hawaii and got the chance to visit Hermès. I didn’t ask for a B or K but I’ve got a bolide in gris perle that I love! Their inventory for everything is absolutely great.

Bolide in gris perle 😍 congratulations! Definitely ask the big question next time- you never know 😉✨
The ribbon doesn’t look strange at all, very cute! But does it get in the way when you try to access the bag and make it more difficult to use?
Not really, but I am still getting used to the kelly opening. Once I get the hang of it, I might find the bow more annoying 😂
How is Jonathan holding up? What are your thoughts on this leather after having owned it?
Really helpful. Hoping to try my luck as well. Which boutique in Oahu would you recommend? And should I make appointment before or just do a walk in?

Met the SA when I got there 💕
Did you get both Kelly and birkin in one visit or on this one trip to Hawaii?
No, I got them during separate trips 💕
Nice video! I found it surprising that you say it’s excessive to have 3 boutiques in NYC
There are 5 boutiques here in Hong Kong…
Wow! I never knew there were 5 boutiques in Hong Kong 🤩
What are your thoughts on Jonathan leather? Pros and cons?
I don't own any item in Jonathan leather, so I cannot share any firsthand experience!
I bought my B25 at the Waikiki boutique. I live in California and she is my only Hermes SA. I've continued to purchase Hermes items from her since we met March 2021. She's great!
Congratulations 🎉 how lovely 😍 I tried to get a B25 to no success, but lucked out with the K25 😉
Do you mind sharing her name?

I agree, so don't feel bad! I wanted to try it out, and that's why I was iffy and needed all your help 😅
Hi! Can you share how much you paid for the K25 pls. Thank You!
I share those specific details in my Hawaii Haul video where I unbox my K25! You can easily find it on my channel 💕
Great tips! Do you know if they still ship items over $10k to mainland US? They used to do that during the store close but I heard they stopped doing that.
Wonderful video. I've been thinking about visiting HI and hope to go soon. xoxo
Oh it will be amazing!! 🏝 good luck when you visit 💕
Do you know if they are shipping bags out of state?
I believe my SA shared that they can ship less than $4000 items to mainland now 🙏🏻
I like the Kelly without twilly.
I think so too 💕
I could have missed this in the beginning but did you use your own profile in Hawaii. I know you said your SA encouraged you to shop there but I can't remember if you said you used your profile.
Re twilly on the touch...I prefer it without!
Yes, I did use my own profile! I'm not 100% sure if profiles are location-specific or not.. if so, I would have a Hawaii profile and an NYC profile 💕
is the pricing different and do they ship outside hawaii
There is no Hawaii price for Hermes and they ship for existing clients for items under $400 I believe!
If your NY SA said go to Hawaii it was to test your “loyalty” and now I doubt they will get you a bag before making you suffer 😩
was it the first time shopping with this SA? do you plan to maintain the relationship
It was my first time shopping with this SA (my previoius SA no longer works there) and I do plan to maintain the relationship 💕
*FYI: I heard Juane Ambre was being discontinued soon*
Oh my! It is my favorite yellow ☀️
Does the Hawaii boutique ship to US mainland?
It does for items less than $4000 and honestly I don’t think it includes any handbags 🙏🏻
Too bad. Hopefully items they ship will count toward profile. I’m hoping it’ll help when I’m able to visit!
Great sharing! thx ^_^
Thank you for watching 💕
Did you buy other stuffs in order to get this Kelly?
Yes you can check out her haul video.
Winnie Star beat me to it! But yes, I did purchase other items from Hawaii - check out my Hawaii Haul video to see more 💕
Ur so clasy I like ur blog and ur decor behind u. Thanks.
Thank you so much 💕
Hermes Waikiki was atrocious in Aug 2022.
Why your Birkin is saggy already gal?
I'm conflicted -- on one hand, I like Hermes bags; on the other, the game seems contrived and silly. I'll just get replicas when I really crave for them. The replicas literally have the same leather, hardware, etc.
I RATHER GO TO EUROPE OR TRAVEL THE WORLD....THOSE 2 BAGS COST ALMOST 20K.. AM GLAD I DONT LET MATERIAL THINGS TAKE OVER MY LIFE !
Buying luxury bags and traveling are not mutually exclusive.
@@samiraismail2180 😆
@@samiraismail2180 They're not? I think they are pretty close.

Yep, that’s a good point - to change the look altogether might as well wrap the twilly around the handle 💕
