If you can try the sizes on somewhere that would be ideal. I'm 5'5 I found this pic from my IG of my K35 on my lap. I do know it can be hard to really get a idea of size by pic. Hope this helps with getting a idea of the size of a 35. I know some people are totally big bag people and some are smaller bag people and I feel a 32 fits right in the middle of the two but get What works for you. View attachment 3733165

Thank you Liz for the photo!
I think I am going to go for the K35. I tend to be a big bag person and I just feel Gold/PHW is such a nice casual combo that it would suit a casual size. I used to own a newly designed Mulberry Bayswater that was similar in dimension to the K35 and I honestly loved the size. Never found it too much and the mulberry was a bulkier bag. So to add some variation, I think I will go for a casual K35, and then purchase a K32 that is elegant, GHW and maybe even Sellier. If I get it I will definitely post photos!!

I remember when I purchased my Picotin I was so conflicted between an 18 or 22. I looked at hundreds of photos, which made the 22 look HUGE and I almost went for the 18. But now that I have the 22, I couldn't imagine a smaller bag.

Hi Ladies, I was wondering if I could ask for your expert advice on a Kelly decision I am trying to make.
I am looking at purchasing a Kelly on the resale market, I am trying to find a Kelly 32 in gold. I could not find it in 32 but did find one in excellent condition in a 35. It is Kelly 35 Gold with PHW, Togo leather! The concern is I really wanted a 32 but I am being a bit impatient... and the price is actually really good.

Now, the problem is I found the size I want a K32, but in orange, and it is clemence.

Now the question is, would you ladies chose the size of your dreams, or the colour of your dreams? I do like the orange but must admit the gold is all year round and really beautiful. Just wondering if the size will be too much and too heavy? I do think Clemence is heavier so with it being Togo, I am sure the 35 would be ok.

I would really appreciate your thoughts!! xx

Hi, I know it's agonising but I think you should wait for exactly what you want. That's what I'm doing - it'll be worth it (eventually [emoji846] )

I think you'll love the 35 in retourné if you're a big bag person.
I had a gold B35 and even though I am petite I loved that bag. Gold and PHW are such a nice combination that I've bought that combo multiple times :D

Awww, thank you! I completely agree, I really think the K35 in a casual combination of gold/PHW will be fabulous! Thank you for your reassurance. I have seen many of your posts and you have an exquisite collection so I appreciate your reassurance. I am just going to speak to the seller and confirm there is no issue with the resin/seal of the grainy togo and then I think I am going to purchase this. I have a Chanel Executive tote that is the size of a K32 and I like it, but I find it a bit small or not as substantial - I really am a big bag person. Therefore I am going to go for K35. My next purchase will be a K32 or K28 in a sellier in a formal combo for when I don't want to be as casual. Thanks for your thoughts!
