That is such a great idea and I love all the bright colors you have on!


Amazing...you look absolutely amazing! Right out of a magazine shoot!

You're a brave soul dear...glad to hear there's something underneath! but oh what a great travel companion!

Thank you, how so very kind

I normally would not, never ever, place any of my bags on the ground. But DH said Travel Kelly is designed to go anywhere. So this, during our trip visiting Europe a few months back. But I did place a paper underneath just in case!! View attachment 2922108

Your Kelly Travel is so beautiful!! I'm always wanting to get one but still haven't seen one at my boutique yet:cry:

Here's a pic of me with my BBk and my marwari! Not sure why my pockets are so lumpy - I think I put my gloves in them.

Classy & Beautiful!

Finally received this graphite canvas strap to get a casual look (and casual use) for my vintage croc Kelly.

Strap is made 70cm long - good for wearing crossbody but not sure if it's a tad long to carry on the side. Bag is 28cm sellier and I'm 5 ft 5 for your reference. (Pardon my messy home outfit!)

Beautiful sellier! The canvas strap is just perfect. Looks fine to me on the side. Really cute crossbody too. Congrats!

Love your travel Kelly!! And yes please take the usual precaution but I totally agree, bags are meant to be used and enjoyed!!

Very nice Jyyanks - can never go wrong with a BBK!

This is an AWESOME look!!!! Where is the canvas strap from? I really love the combination of the croc with the canvas - it just works!

Here's my casual dress day with my Kelly 35. I think the 35 just has that casualness to it without me trying too hard.

You are ADORABLE!

Made my own hands-free KC with long (very long) chiffon ribbon. It comes in handy when needed. Plus it become more casual too!

I love what you did! Sooo creative!

Hope y'all enjoyed the weekend

You look great - it's like a shot from those street style fashion blogs!

You all look ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! Thank you for sharing. ceci - great idea re: the ribbon. I imagine a twill can work too!



What a beautiful travel kelly!! Kudos to you for being brave enough to actually use it for traveling!!

Thanks jyyanks! You look great with BE!! Recall your toolbox!! Stunning!! I wish I can eventually find something in BE too!! Hoping for B/K or even Halzan in my dream!

I can tie a Twilly to dress up KC handle, but I found Twilly will be kind of too wide for KC to make as strap & it's not long enough. What I actually did, I put the 1" chiffon ribbon through the KC straps (on both sides), then I braid it to my desired length. It's thin & light enough that it hide inside KC all the time. I just take it out when needed!

DH better use the Travel K rather keeping it from home! Because he took my quota for another B or K. LOL!!

Thanks everyone for your compliments!

Leah, this is from Hermes, I waited for about 9 months since placing the order - which is not too bad for a strap. The brand Chapman suggested in the non-H strap post seem good also if one can find the matching color.

LuvBirkin, 9 months in Hermes-time is nothing. That was super quick and you were very lucky! And the length is perfect.

I'm just as paranoid as you ! I use a toilet seat cover to protect my H bags when I hang them in public bathrooms. The thought of it touching the wall in the stalls freak me out !!

Hummmm....That's I haven't thought of the wall. Now you got me to think about that!! >.<

My dear, will pm you shortly as we need to catch up. Oh where to start! For now I will say your travel K is gorgeous! You and your blue bags(I remember your whole analysis on Chanel beu roi), wow! And just like larkie amd chkpfbeliever, I too am paranoid and employ all they do to protect the bag(s).



But again, wow your travel K! What size is it and does it have an amazone strap?

Got your PM dear! Will catch up soon!! As for the Travel K, it's 50cm lined with Cherve I believe. Yes, it has the amazone strap, not adjustable, but just long enough to wear across body.

Your Kelly Travel is so beautiful!! I'm always wanting to get one but still haven't seen one at my boutique yet:cry:

Thank you! Wish you luck to find one. We were not looking for this size in the beginning, but SA brought this out along with two Travel Bolide.

Gorgeous BE Kelly!!!!

I wish it's BE! It's Bleu de Galice. Thanks!

Love your travel Kelly!! And yes please take the usual precaution but I totally agree, bags are meant to be used and enjoyed!!!

Thank you Leah! It's funny DH has already planned after many years of usage, he will take it back to H for maintenance. I guess men has no problems with fix & repair, like their cars?!?! But I would not think like that, taking precautions ahead would be my choice.

This looks great LuvBirkin!! I asked about getting a longer strap for my box K28 but mine is an unusual color. SA said most likely not available to get that done. You are lucky to order one!! Beautiful kelly btw!! What color is your croc k28? graphite?

 

[chkpfbeliever]

Thank you!! I love BE so much, that I have a matching wardrobe consisting of a coat, and multiple sweaters, shirts and dresses-- all in BE!!

Me too. I think it is a conservative winter color with an 'edge' !! It really brightens up the gloomy winter days.

Just as I'm trying to find a casual way to wear my box K28 ie across body. I have been thinking on & off to figure a way to make it works.

Unfortunately, I missed out getting the H baroque chain - as an extension. I can't order a longer strap due to limited color/leather combo. I thought of getting an Evelyne, but it's not GHW. I tried the maxi-twilly to replace the strap, but it's too bulky. I even look up etsy to search for chain & clasp supplies.

But tonight when I was playing with the extra twilly, this idea just pop up! Here, I just put the twilly through D-ring next the handle; & then through the D-ring, & back through the clasp at one end of the leather strap; then adjust & tie a few knots. I'm quite happy I finally find a solution to have a longer strap while I can also change different twilly to match my outfits! What do you think?
