Kelly 25 Tartan: Going to see this week!

I just got one. I rejected it at first, then I saw it and it was unusual and cute. I took it because I love unique bags although it is SOOO NOT ME. But my 19 year old LOVES it. This is the first and only time I let one of my girls borrow one of my QBs. BUT, I was with her the entire time and I had my eye on it like a hawk.

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Do you find the gris pale to be too light or do you see any shade of grey or it’s perfect the way it is? I haven’t seen it in person yet. From all the photos I’ve seen it looks like it’s white. TIA!

lol! I thought it was white! I did not realize it is Gris Pale. I never would have known it is Gris Pale. I typically don’t go for Kelly Swift Retourne, but I do like atypical, unusual bags. I could not resist because it is cute and unique. My SA is my fashion stylist and he sees me as feminine. However, I still see myself as more of a classic, more masculine, dark tone dresser. But I am older now and as I age, my color choices have been softer and lighter.

I don’t have any bag in white! 😰That’s the reason why I haven’t said YES yet! It certainly is super cute! Congratulations on your Kelly Tartan! We just might we twins soon. 🤪

In my home store in Europe, I recently got an offer and accepted this Kelly Messenger PM in rough H. The leather is togo and the hardware is palladium.

It was €9,650 (taxes included), and €965 (10%) is about to be refunded soon. (It is still processing.) If we assume that the exchange rate is 1.17 USD per 1 euro, the expected final price would be around $10,161.45.

In the US, the exact same bag was on the H website (as shown in the last picture), and the price was $13,500 (before taxes). If the NYC-based tax rate (8.875%) is applied, it would have been $14,698.125. So, I saved roughly $4,536.675. (In other words, it's about 44.6% more expensive to buy the exact same item in the US.)

Lately I looked at an VCA item in Munich then realized that the US price, after tax, is similar to the total I would need to pay after all the gymnastics if I were to buy in Germany. I wish Hermes could do the same to spare us all the wasted time and hassle.
