Hermès Fall/ Winter 2016/17 Accessories Presentation

[MSO13]

See, to me that is a serious chunk of change for a bag that, while adorable, is NOT really functional. The collector in me wants it, bad, but I don't see it happening. There are too many things I could put that money toward that would actually be used. An adorable wee Kelly that just sits in my closet most of the time, is, sadly, not on the agenda.

I completely understand Mindi and have all the same reservations but as a collectible piece, I just really want it! I have what I need as far as functional bags go and have a more practical Podium Order headed my way so that offsets this completely impractical yet adorable purchase. Of course, it could arrive and I could have a change of heart but I don't think that's going to happen.

MrsO, I am totally in support of your proposed mini-Kelly! If my finances would allow it, I would SO be right there with you! May I live vicariously though you, please?

Thank you for your support

She'll hold a place of honor among my collection of tiny bags, my Micro Peekaboo, my Nano LV Speedy, my Happy Pill clutch that only holds 2 lipsticks but nothing else you might actually need. I'll consider this one a winner if it can hold both my phone and a credit card at the same time

I admit, I am still wanting a micro monster baguette from Fendi. Totally trendy and ridiculous, but I just think the darn things are cute. If my money tree flourishes, I will revisit the micro Kelly for sure, but I just don't see it as likely. Insert sad face here.

Thinking over Mrs. O's preferences, it seems to me that tiny bags are an art form -- I would use the term, "wearable art" here but that has such connotations of pieced-together clothing (often quite beautiful, tho) -- so I will simply call them a "collectible." They are cool. It's like the guys with a garage full of Porsches that seldom get driven but all the same are a part of the guys' identity.





Or, on a small but completely stupid scale, people who own $5.00 statues from ebay of a hippo hatching out of an egg, or a hippo wearing a chef's hat and apron who's grilling something. Or pink and blue hippos wearing large round eyeglasses. Or the real prize, the large, gap-toothed bubble-gum pink hippo with lipstick and a hula hoop who moves when the alarm goes off the clock it's attached to. Yeah. Like that. (If I had a yard it would have pink flamingoes).

compared to the Mini K the Fendi now looks like an absolute bargain, not to enable you or anything [emoji77]

I think you're right, it's a fun thing to collect. I have plenty of practical and timeless fashion items but these are just fun and I do consider them art. Making them so perfect on such a small scale requires an amazing attention to detail and the mini K is the crown jewel in the mini bag format, to me at least!

My store was hopeful for around October for the mini Kelly but Fall starts to trickle out in July/August

MrsOwen,
I have a Kelly Pochette that I use all of the time. Is the mini kelly smaller than the KP? I wish I could see one modeled or pics that compare the two to see what the dimensions are.

I love it too, haven't seen any yet but was told price was in the mid $9k usd for leather combos and no info on the exotic combos. I asked to try it if my store gets any in at all.

That so great to hear about your gorgeous KP! I think it's a little taller than the KP and about 19/20 cm wide. I think KP is 22cm so just a bit smaller. I'm sure we'll see them modeled soon, I'm excited to see them!

it's only 19cm wide, while KP is 22 cm; and it's going to be thinner so it won't fit as much.
