i was offered a kelly danse in rose ete but not sure if i should take it....looking for some advice as to whether i should wait for a more neutral color (altho i have lots of neutrals in my collection already..) so my questions are (1) do you think the kelly danse is better in a fun pop of color like pink or better in a neutral (gold, black) persay? (2) is there typically a long wait list for kelly danse similar to kelly pochette...just curious if i decline whether it would take months and months before another one shows up in store...
(1) I think Kelly danse looks great in both bright and neutral colors. It boils down to how you intend to use it and how much you like rose ete. Personally, I wanted a versatile bag that can be business casual and I’m also more comfortable carrying neutral color bags. I have it in noir and use it everyday. Noir is not as exciting, but I also don’t have to think about whether it goes with my outfit. It is so easy. (2) I don’t know how hard it is to get a Kelly danse. It was offered to me. I do know that it is not a quota bag at my store. I’m guessing if you have a good relationship with your SA, it should not be too difficult to come across one.
 
I took the danse offer! thanks for the advice. the bag is so versatile and the size is just perfect (reminds me of the K25 but it fits a bit more). after SA showed me different ways to wear it, i was sold. i know many people have commented on how long the danse strap can be making it awkward and odd to wear crossbody/or single shoulder and i totally agree but creating a top handle solves the issue making the perfect crossbody drop (assuming you like the look with the top handle...).. Told my SA that I want it in different colors now...she said there could be a wait as the boutique only gets a few per year..

:congrats: Please do share pics of your new Danse! We could always use more eye candy on this thread. :biggrin:

Speaking of pics, quoting @auntynat's post on tying a twilly on a faux top handle on the Danse.
Hi, I’ve been playing with different options, tops handle, cross body and as a should bag (double strap) are my favourite so far..here you go. Apologies in advance for my lack of twilly skills....

Has anyone tried a bag insert or organizer for kelly danse? I noticed the leather lining of my evercolor danse is not the same leather (probably swift?) and seems more delicate.

The only insert I can find is samorga but not sure how it fits and if it takes up too much space...

Any input is appreciated, thanks in advance!

I customised an insert for my Kelly Danse. It is quite small because of the internal folds. The size of the insert is only 15 L by 5W by 11 H (in cm).

Here’s a pic for your reference.

Thank you very much dear! So the samorga insert will probably be too big for this bag. I was even considering the hermès fourbi in 20cm but that’s too big as well :(
