Okay so I usually don't do reveals anymore - but I thought sharing this info might help someone else who has felt like me before! Having bought (and sold) a few bags along the way...and thinking perhaps I wasn't really a kelly girl after all, loving my bolides, etc. Recently had the opportunity to hang with a pf friend, and played with her 28 souple kelly!! Ummmm....that was IT!!! Hadn't tried that exact size....in the retourne style.....lo and behold!!! I've had a few kellys along the way - 32's - rigid....and loved them! But they didn't love me back - never was quite comfortable how I looked/felt carrying them. Did try a 28 rigid in box even (and it was suggested I should never part with it)...but alas, I hardly used it! It was a beauty though...just didn't earn it's keep. Also tried a souple 32....didn't use that...thought my kelly days were over! So recently, again evaluating my bag wardrobe, scaling back, and figuring what I did need/want, I decided on making room for a 28 souple....this came to me pre-loved, 28 clemence, and made it's maiden journey last night! I must say, it is !!!
The black (yes that's right black!) 28 clemence retourne style with gold hardware, is perfect for me! I decided this one bag would be black (I generally prefer H's bright and fun colors)....can be dressed up or casual. Last night we had to walk a little ways to the restaurant and a light drizzle didn't bother me one bit! It holds everything I need - bearn wallet, small karo with my goodies, checkbook, keys, cell, and last night a rainhat was tucked inside as well - no problem!
Hmmm the pics don't want to load so for now I will just post this and try again....it's really nice to get it so RIGHT!!! As many know, I try to keep my numbers scaled back and finding the perfect fit is very satisfying!
