Herme's Kelly - Birkin what would u vote for?

[shaim]

so, i'm officially convinced that i should have my own hermes! check my thread here! of how i got conviced!

so what would you go for a kelly, or a birkin! and tell me if there are other famous hermes besides those two! dont forget to vote!

I say Birkin. It's a more casual, wear-with-everything sort of bag. But the Kelly is beautiful, too...just not so much my style. Also, the Birkin is available in larger sizes.

It is very much individual style. I LOVE both, but I always tend toward the more dressier Kelly.

I think either one would be great for your first bag, but I voted for a Birkin. However, they are much harder to obtain, so if you get your hands on a Kelly, it would be just as good!!

I voted Kelly because to me the Kelly is the ultimate Hermes Bag, ladylike and elegant (I aspire to be both of these things but most of the time fall short). The Birkin is beautiful too but more relaxed and casual. You might also want to look at the Bolide.

I voted Kelly because for me it is the ultimate and I've wanted one forever.

Kelly for me.

The Kelly was my first bag...gold chourcheval with gold hardware, 32cm. So elegant and so Hermes classic!!

Birkin. You can dress it up or dress it down.

Kelly! Timeless, sophisticated AND casual, chic and quintessentially Hermes!!!!

lilach...you are so funny

Both!
But if I had to choose, I would get a Birkin first because it is versatile and so functional. And since it is more expensive of the two, and usually harder to get, I would try to get a birkin first. Keep us posted!!!

Birkin is MUCH harder to get. Almost every store has at least one or two Kellys. I saw one store had six Kellys at one time! But it is close to impossible to see a Birkin on the shelf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You very rarely see Birkin on the shelf once in a while...
