I have had a black Kelly pocket belt since last year and I have yet to use the belt with the pocket. I always feel like I look silly with the pocket AND carrying a purse. For those who have one, how do you wear it? Alone with a few cards? Or do you wear it and carry a purse?

I wear it with my my kelly which allows me to keep the Kelly closed most of the time. I just keep a few cards in the pocket. Because the belt and pocket match the color of my kelly, I think it looks cohesive.

do you agree that even kelly belt is considered to be tacky now? I am choosing a belt now and LV and H I would not buy now... looking for smth not that tacky but recognizable at the same time

Hermes has dozens of buckle models and very few are as recognizable as the Constance H. I don’t think the Kelly belt is tacky at all but if it is to you, highly recommend you peruse the H website for other options.

I don’t think H belt buckles are tacky. It doesn’t mean each buckle would be a preference for each one of us. There are numerous buckles available, though of course as far as I know they don’t sell buckles alone, you have to buy a belt kit, and/or later on replacement or additional straps. Sounds like you are trying to thread the needle from everyone that recognizes H Constance buckles, but you still want your buckle to be read as an H buckle? I bet you could find an option for that. I was amazed at the choices of buckles before Christmas last year online, and it seems there’s a style for anyone now. I love my H belt and buckle!

And I only care what I think of my gorgeous H items, and if someone doesn’t like it oh well! I buy to suit myself and enjoy the heck out of what I buy. Hope you find a belt that suits.

I love my Kelly belt. Seriously, it's the most useful belt I own. I can't imagine anyone calling it "tacky," but I guess everyone's got different standards.

This is true, yes and no.
I have been able to buy buckles alone and I accidentally stumbled upon the loophole of how to do it. I'll keep my lips sealed for the sake of someone getting a slap on the wrist or that loophole disappearing. 🥸

Why post at all then?

First belt and buckle I picked up a few months ago (same day as the bag, which it matches)View attachment 5907213View attachment 5907214, but now I’ve learned about the quizz rainbow and I need that one, too 😂

Great pic! Love your style!

Not perhaps the wisest claim to make on a public forum then.

I started off my H journey with this 32mm belt as my first item. I really thought the buckle was different and I liked it for that reason. Till this day I have not seen this buckle at my H boutique or when I travel and see other H boutiques around the world. Does anyone know if this buckle is limited edition or something?

Tacky is in the eye of the beholder, and some of us have enough confidence in our dressing choices to not give a damn what anyone else thinks.

No. I don't agree. Not even sure why you are in this thread since it's filled with tacky pictures
