We all know real estate, stocks and bonds help to improve one’s net worth. But did you ever consider the iconic Hermès luxury as an investment in your portfolio?
This post combines my new efforts to support my goal of sustainable living. First, to reduce my carbon footprint by buying less but better. Second, purchasing natural products or items that exhibit craftsmanship.
Because of my association with the Uncommon Influencers that support Uncommon Threads Boutique, I learned of 40 Hermès scarves donated to the resale store. The boutique caters to women financially challenged.
I quickly perused the online shop to select one of the 40 new or preloved luxury Hermès scarves. There is a win-win situation for Uncommon Thread’s goals, with 100% of my purchase going to styling sessions and workshops.
The iconic Hermès, French artisans since 1837. One hundred years later, in 1937, the design of the first Hermes scarf.
What’s so special about the iconic Hermès scarf?
♦ Natural, sustainable fabric – 100% silk from China
◊ The silk spun into yarn, woven into a material, and silkscreen printed by French atelier
♠ Hems hand-rolled and hand-stitched
◊ Still produced in France
♥ It takes eighteen months to complete a scarf from start to finish
◊ Only twelve scarf designs per year
I mentioned early on about Hermès scarves as investments; Why? Because of the appreciation in value and craftsmanship, and quality.
It’s not just the iconic Hermès brand but all classic luxe brands. You know them, Chanel, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton, to name a few. If you own these covetable brands, you realize you can sell any items and receive significant dividends.
Now, do you like how I styled my Hermès scarf? If you are in the market for investment shopping, please don’t forget to stop by the Uncommon Threads Boutique. The resale store carries other luxury brands besides the iconic Hermès scarves. And every purchase supports a worthy cause empowering women.
As always, thank you for reading, and stay safe.
