Someday, when I no longer have a conscience, I’m going to treat myself to one of these $530 Hermes beach towels because I absolutely adore elephants. Do you think their terry cloth is woven with gold thread? One wonders… If only they weren’t so darn cute.
Stressed out over what to wear?

Kirby says
I can imagine laying on these would be a lot like laying on really nice bed sheets.
Marija says
They are SO cute. But I wouldn’t be surprised to see them on bluefly at the end of the season. Seems there are always a random few towels or napkins :) Marija

Kirby — Good point! One doesn’t bat an eye when splurging on sheets… XO
Oh Marija! You are so full of good tips. Bluefly it is—conscience intact. XO
Alexandra says
I don’t blame you! Those are adorable!
eringianni says
love love love. it’s certainly way too much for a towel, but maybe it’s like nice underwear… freakishly expensive and seemingly silly, but you feel so good when you’ve got it on!
the NEO-traditionalist says
Erin — Good analogy! I would feel pretty fantastic basking on one of these poolside…sigh.
Ruth says
So funny–I just posted something really similar to this! Someday….
cathi says
Those are gorgeous..I love the purple one…!! someday, indeed! xxoo :)
Staley Mc says
These are so cute! I can’t even imagine spending 350 dollars on a beach towel it is just unimaginable to me!
StylishBird says
OMG I adore these towels! $500 is pretty steep though. Not sure I could justify it.
Piper says
We must be thinking along the same lines…I just was talking about how I’m obsessed with Hermes boxes!! So you can have the adorable towels…if you give me the box :)!
Bexpress yourself says
These are indeed very beautiful! But $500 on a beach towel?! wow.
rikshaw design says

Alaina at LiveCreatingYourself says
Beautiful! I want a great big cute beach towel. But they are not cheap! This one in particular!
Cheers,
Alaina
Kate says
Ugh. They’re really freakin expensive.
But I will say, my friend’s mother bought these, and they’re the fluffiest, coziest towels I’ve EVER used.
I wouldn’t pay $500, but I’d gladly accept one as a gift!
the NEO-traditionalist says
Kate — Will your friend’s mother please adopt me? That’d be swell. XO Katie

That is so funny! Just this past weekend I swear I was telling Eric that someday I want the Hermes “H” throw blanket. But hello! It costs $2,500! Love these towels too. Ugh, someday I suppose:)
StyleCurator says
love the elephants!!! Until I can spring for an Hermes towel, I’m perfectly happy with my Missoni!!
the NEO-traditionalist says
Too funny I have a big bright Missoni towel I just adore as well! I think it’s in storage in California though, must dig it out!
Lauren (pen.ny) says
