I’m offered a K32 Epsom Sellier in the colour Gris Asphalt with gold hardware. Ideally I would like a K32 Retourne and K28 Sellier. Will the K32 sellier be too big? What should I do? Should I take it ?

You should definitely go try it on. For myself, I would prefer k28 sellier as I feel K32 sellier would be too bulky. It would be better for u to decide after seeing in person. However, I would advise u not to settle. I got a k35 retourne after wanting a k28 or 32 retourne and regretted my decision. I liked all the other specs of the bag including color, leather type, and hardware and convinced myself it was ok to get one size bigger than I wanted. I wish I had not compromised as I never used the bag.

I had wanted a K28 for more than a year and in gris mouette with GHW. I was offered a K32 retourne with the same specs and I did take it, it is my most used bag, but I still wish it was a K28 retourne. I still dont have a K28 retourne but I do have a K28 sellier and that is as big as I would go in a sellier. The structured nature of a sellier makes it easier to bump into things and in a 32 even more, and a sellier even looks bigger. Stick to your original "idea".

I had a k32 sellier that I rehomed. It was too big for me (5’2 120lbs). I have a k28 retourne now and I’m much happier. Personally the biggest I’d go for a sellier is a 28. Other ladies can totally rock bigger sellier bags though so it’s all relative. You should try it and see how it feels. Good luck!
 
I have almost always regretted "settling" for a bag. If you feel you are doing that then I would say wait for what you really want.

But, on the other hand, waiting is hard! Sounds like you haven't tried it on yet so why don't you do that and see how you feel about it in person? JMHO.

Good luck!

Thanks for your advice. I’ve decided to pass on it until the right size and colour combinations comes up.

Electric Blue Kelly 32 in Togo from 2011. My first Hermes piece (I'm more of an LV girl, but she fell into my hands by accident). :) Hoping to get a few mod-shots this weekend.
