I don’t know if this has been mentioned before but if you’re like me who’s wondering if the original Picnic Kelly will be back, well, it is:

View attachment 6033316

It is priced at 17,400 euros at Sèvres. I think a barenia one is also available, or at least I think it’s barenia I saw at FSH.

Like the original, it doesn’t have the extra rings to attach a shoulder strap.

Perhaps resellers could now relax their Picnic Kelly 35 pricing of at least 40,000 euros a piece. lol
Is the inside lined with silk or leather? Is it all wicker?
 
Can someone help me with this ,am trying to find which size scarf would fit like this on my birkin 30 .Tried the 90 but it does not ,it was huge ,so not sure if 45 or 70 is better . Anyone who has a 30 birkin can try and letb me know .I don't want to buy a 45 or 70 cm Scarf and fail .Thanks

Hello! Just wondering if you could give me some advice. I was offered a Kelly bag and my SA made it pretty clear that I should not turn down the offer. I ended up with the Kelly 28 in nata but not in love as I was hoping for something more neutral as my first bag. What do I do?! Just wondering what you would do in this situation as this is all new to me. Thank you
Can you tell us what your SA said that made you feel that way? What were your requested specs? Was this close enough that if you turned it down it would look bad? Nata is, IMO, a neutral.

Do not buy something you do not love. Ever. I am against returns generally, but I would return.

Well, I think your SA did you an injustice by offering you a bag that she's made pretty clear you
should not turn down. What was your first color choice in a neutral?
You should absolutely love your Kelly... hands down..
If you are not happy, would return it, JMO

I was offered a mauve Sylvester Kelly 28 in swift leather back in the spring, I turned it down because it wasn’t even a color on my list and not something I would want as my first QB. So when she showed me this bag she said no one turns down a second QB offer. I asked for a Kelly 25 or Birkin 25 in Epsom in noir, gold or a neutral color. So in the SAs opinion this was a neutral and not something I should pass on. Thank you for reassuring me that it is a neutral 💕

I asked for a Kelly 25 in gold or in beige marfa, first choice was noir. Then I said I was open to Blue Jean as well. What is your opinion of nata?

I’m afraid if I return it she will not offer me another bag and it took me over a year to get this offer.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond.

You are the only one who can weigh the pros & cons of keeping a bag that is really not your first
choice , feeling under the gun for having to make that decision,SA making it clear that you should take the bag
& compounded by now feeling that it took you a year to get this one & feeling another offer may
not be in your near future.
I would not buy a Kelly unless I loved the color.. pure & simple
Many of H colors are beautiful it really depends on the colors in your wardrobe & I like neutral
colors that I can wear with taupes, winter whites, beiges & those tones,JMO
For other tpf'ers who have a bag in nata, perhaps they can chime in & share their thoughts

Hmmm…I’ve turned down many offers of Bs and a MK because they were not what I wanted…but it did mean I went almost two years between accepted offers from my SA.

I definitely consider Nata a neutral but if it’s not a color you like and thus you don’t like the bag, you either keep it to keep your SA happy or you return it and accept that you may have to wait longer for a bag that you actually want.

ETA: and, if you want some inspiration as to how you might style Nata, check out this thread: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/styling-craie-nata-and-beyond.1059119/

Wow. JMO but if you don’t like nata you shouldn’t buy an expensive bag in that color. Why would you? It would be different if she said well, it’s not beige marfa but come look, you might like it. But take it or you’ll never get another? I’d probably consider it time for a switch, a hiatus, or a very frank conversation, but YMMV. I’m wishing you the best of luck in finding a bag that gives you butterflies. :flowers:
 
Plenty of people turn down a second QB offer. I also went a long while between accepted offers. Talk to her. The fact is, this bag isn’t the size or color you want. But, I would say in general the competition for the bag you want, size 25 neutral, gold, beige marfa, or Noir, is greater than for size 28/30. Your SA may greatly desire to offer you the bag of your dreams, but if it will not be approved by her SM, she just cannot do it. Having said that, I think Nata is just as much of a neutral as beige Maria, but that’s only my opinion. I didn’t buy the bag. Good luck
