Hermes Lindy: Red & Orange

When Hermes is mentioned, the color orange inevitably becomes the color of choice. Many gal pals clamor over an orange Birkin until they actually have one. I have had opportunities to use orange Hermes bags in various styles and find myself in love-hate relationship with the color. It is a beautiful color which will really pop. However I think it is also a hard color to carry well. I can imagine an orange Lindy in 34 cm will look like a giant orange on my arm. Perhaps I am just unadventurous, I find myself unusually attracted to the red Lindy. Now red is a classic color which a gal will enjoy for years and years to come, or perhaps I am in this red phase. If anyone is going to buy the Lindy, I recommend 34 cm because when half empty, the bag collapses more beautifully and the size is more versatile. A couple gal pals regretted buying 30 cm because the size was slightly too small for everyday use. Even though 4 cm doesn't sound much but it does make a difference when you look at the bag side by side. Which color do you prefer?

*Orange is 34 cm and red is 30cm. I don't know if you can see it from the picture but 34 cm collapses more than the 30 cm, which I think is more causal and stylish.
