    Hi Caroline,

    I’m interested to get a Hermes Birkin bag and a Hermes Kelly Long Wallet.

    Can i know the price and possible to get any colours that i want ?

    • carolinang | November 3, 2009 at 3:40 pm | Reply

      Hi Sharon,
      the 30cm is S$11,8xx and the 35cm is $12,8xx. We advice our Hermes clients to put down a list of colours according to priority of preference. As you know, even in Paris Hermes flagship, the colour options are very touch-and-go. Of course, the easier you are with colours, the greater the chances of nabbing a birkin. (edited prices)

    Hi, read the article on Urban. Great job you guys in providing this service! i’m looking for a bag myself…something that’s not over-the-top, nice enough for everyday work usage… but i have a limited budget (not more than 1.5k). What is your advise? Tks! :)

    • carolinang | November 3, 2009 at 3:32 pm | Reply

      Hi Volksgal, thanks! For 1.5k, my advice would be the Mulberry Bayswater in basic leather. The Bayswater is one of my first loves. It’s such an under-rated but so classic and such workmanship. It is shaped sensibly and so roomy, it carries my A4 papers and files and novels and notebooks for everyday, and it doubles up as my overnight bag with a change of clothing even when I have to travel for work in the region, or for an overnighter at a resort. I love it, seriously consider the Mulberry Bayswater. It won’t fail you! It’s constantly being reinvented in various colours and materials.

    Hi Carol, saw the article in Urban, so happy! Do you think you can get me Hermes Birkin 35 Togo in Blue Jean or Caramel or Tabac Cafe?

    Hi Carol,

    This is Ashley. Bought a LV petite noe multicolour (black) some months ago and it’s new and unused.
    Do you happen to know of any potential buyers and do you actually facilitate such transactions?

    Thanks
    Ashley

      Hi Ashley,
      so sorry I don’t help to resell, as Happiness Store strictly shops new from the boutiques. But I will leave your message here, and perhaps an interested buyer can contact you personally. Cheers!

    Hi Carol,
    I wish to get a chanel classic quilted flap bag in striped lycra CC clasp and interlaced chain with shoulder pad. Could you contact me via email so i can email you the exact picture.

    I’m interested to get the hermes double-kelly tour bracelet and although my preference is white epsom with gold or silver hardware, im also open to other colors except maybe red or black with gold hardware ? Im at a lost to what colors to take, would you advise me ? I would need the smallest size for the bracelet :)

    • carolinang | February 5, 2010 at 12:01 pm | Reply

      Hi Ling, believe that we communicated via email, or text? :) I’m into bright colours, hence I believe it’s largely a subjective matter, go with your personal preferences. White is a great neutral, though it tends to get dirty, I have a white CDC that looks yellowish now, but I still love it to death. Red and Black are also safe easy-to-match colours, all excellent choices. But I am a firm believer in gold hardware, gives a classy tinge to the colours :)

    Hi Carol

    I wish to covet a Hermes Birkin in Gold/Tan, Caramel or perhaps Etoupe in Tog0 leather Size 25,28 or 30. Kindly give me an indication of the price(s) after conversion frm Euros (?) for the various sizes and honestly which color is more easily available? I am really dying for the Gold/Tan Togo 25/30 with PHW. Do email me please.

      Hi Caroline!

      A 30cm in Togo from Paris is S$11,6xx onwards. Prices include my fee and are subject to currency fluctuations. It’s hard to say which colours are more easily available, as it’s all very touch and go, when it comes to Paris. But i will say that a Gold is probably easier than a Fuschia :) I have to advise though, that I have closed my birkin orders, as I have a huge backlog. But if you are open to purchasing from Tokyo (am making a trip there in June), I can almost say that yes, I can bring home a birkin for you. However, prices are higher – not the commission to me (I actually earn less from the Tokyo purchases), but the retail prices. If you are open to that, please email me, or give me a call :)

    Hi,

    I am interested in getting the Chanel Classic Flap Bag with Gold hardware. But I not sure whether to choose lambskin or caviar skin?

    • carolinang | July 23, 2010 at 3:22 pm | Reply

      Hi Geraldine, if it’s your first Flap, I would suggest a Caviar. Lambskin is buttery soft and gorgeous to the touch, but Caviar is hardier, and you don’t have to get too precious with it, allowing you more wear out of your bag

    Hi,

    For Chanel classic flap with ghw, how much is the cavier medium & jumbo size?

  20. yingting | August 11, 2010 at 11:47 am | Reply

    Hi there. Do you bring in bags from LV as well? I’m interested to get one.
    Do let me know.
