hello all!!!
I've been thinking lately to start wearing my mom's gold kelly. I guess it's a good way for me to test drive H bags.

My question is... is it inappropriate/ugly for a 22 year old to wear a kelly? Maybe a birkin is more age appropriate? But I like the shape of the kelly better! So...? Thanks for your help everyone! :heart:
 
Not ugly. Not inappropriate.

JMHO, an object handed-off from a well-loved family member is almost always completely charming.
 
I'm 22, and I'm buying my first Hermes bag this year (either a Bolide or Birkin!) I'd get a kelly right now, but I'm waiting, because I want it in black...and I want to buy my colored bags first :D So nooo not too young! :D
 
Absolutely not -- you will look stunning! I mean, I look like I am in my early 20's and I carry one! (Just kidding!)

No, wear it... I think nothing is inappropriate unless it feels inappropriate!

ENJOY!
 
Not too young, especially if you like it , it probably means you'll have the appropriate attitute wearing it, and also, it depends a lot on what you pair it with, but I am sure you'll find the best way.

And let us know how you've liked it afterwards!
 
It wouldn't bother me to see a young girl with a Kelly at all. I am in my early 40's. I would be a little more amazed by a Birkin, but really I don't think there is an age limit on Hermes bags.
The only thing that would bother me would be anyone at any age mistreating their Hermes bag. I don't know, I just think nice things should be taken care of.
