![]() PS: I paid something around $2600 or so for my Evelyne. If you’ve been thinking about this bag, I’d recommend stopping into an Hermes shopping and trying it out! Overall, I love my Evelyne and have had a bit of a hard time not using this bag since I got it – it’s such an easy to wear, comfortable size and style – a total “grab and go” bag. In both of the photos above, I’d adjusted the canvas strap to be at the shortest possible length. One beef I have is with the strap’s length – you really can’t adjust it to hang much lower than the hip or right below the waist, depending on how tall you are. The particular model of the Evelyne that I purchased (Evelyne III), came with both the outside leather pocket, and an adjustable canvas strap. Here are the two ways I wear my Evelyne the most – as a longer shoulder bag, and across the body. I know that some don’t like this strap because it makes the bag more “casual”, but to me the Evelyne is a casual bag and so the strap fits in well. One aspect of the Evelyne that I really liked when I tried it on was the thick canvas strap. With the contents below inside my Evelyne, it’s quite filled but by no means “overstuffed ” – everything fits neatly inside and I can still reach in comfortably and sift through my items. Sometimes of course the contents are swapped – no water bottle but some ballet flats to change into, etc. Here’s a snapshot of all the items I usually carry in my Evelyne on a day to day basis – a water bottle, cosmetics case, sunglasses, long wallet, Kindle, journal (plus a phone and keys, which aren’t pictured). There is no zipper close, just a leather tab that clips from one side to another on the bag. The bag comes with one large interior compartment. I came home with the PM size, which I found to be the most ideal size for my needs and frame. While we were in Paris – I tried on a few sizes – PM, MM (which I’m told is a little more rare and hard to find), and GM. A cross-body bag is so much more convenient when you’re running around, and I thought that the Evelyne would be a perfect candidate. Lately however, I’ve been walking much more – walking to work, on errands during my lunch break, and of course walking around lots whenever we travel. The Evelyne is a bag that has long been on my radar, but which for one reason or another, I put off trying it out for years. Today I want to share a quick review of one of the bags I purchased while in Paris – the Hermes Evelyne.
