If you can only get 1 Hermes Kelly bag ever, which one would it be (size, leather, hardware, color combi) and why?

Wow box leather! I have yet to see it in real life but it looks very smooth and nice on photos I'm around 5'5 in height, not sure if 32 will look too big for me.

As long as your bag fits your needs! You’ll look fabulous no matter the size! Don’t forget to share it here once you’ve decided

Totally with you there!

I always say it’s so difficult to minimize a closet but if you have a box kelly 32 sellier in black and a black birkin 35 retourne, you can look chic for the rest of your life.

That's a great combo! Sounds like a very versatile bag! Is it in retourne or sellier?

Retourne! I have a casual lifestyle! I love her so much!

I’m 5’2” and 115 lbs and 32 is perfect on me. My best friend is the same height and a little thinner than me and she also has a 32. (Vintage, Box, Retourne, GHW).

I'm 5'4 115lb and I feel the 32 looks really good on me, not too big like what I previously feared. Never tried 28 though.

K25 black chevre

This is tough. Probably a retourne K32 in Box, maybe Rough H? ghw
But that's an entirely personal choice, and one that's not going to be easy to find in boutique.

I'm a big fan of evercolor, especially in the green-greys, too.

28 Box! In retourne but who knows if they even make that

K25 or K28 Retourne in any neutral color in togo would be my pick.

This is my everyday (as much as I could use her now) Kelly. It goes with almost everything in my wardrobe. It took some trial and error before I finally ended up with my everyday Kelly

Size 28, Retourné style, trench color, palladium hardware.

TBH I don’t think I’d use her as much if it were sellier style.

K28 retourné in a mid to dark grey colour (e.g gris etain, vert de gris, graphite) with GHW.
I'll always be a retourné girl, the sellier just doesn't speak to me. I'm a more causal dresser and sellier looks too formal for me style wise. The 28 can fit a lot of things but doesn't look too big on my 5'2" frame. Colour wise I find a cooler grey a perfect neutral which should hopefully last for years without looking tatty (like light bags often do with time). And I personally prefer gold over silver.

 

[Stansy]

My dream Kelly is a 28 retourné, swift leather, étoupe with GHW. Why? For me this combination is elegant and laid-back at the same time.
Can you guess that I am waiting to add this bag to my collection?

K25 retourne in gold and heritage leather

 

[maxroxxherhandbags]

K32 or 35 Black Box Kelly dont mind HW.
And although I prefer sellier in box I'd be happy with retourne.
Or I would adore a 32 in Olive or black Barenia with PHW (one can only dream)
This would be my choice because its timeless and will work with any outfit. (from grungey to avant garde to classic and chic)

K28 Retourne Barenia Palladium with an extra long strap. Too bad will never happen, if I ever get a SO I will get the long strap if that’s an option but know Barenia will probably never be a SO option.
