The proportions and colour palette are spot on.
The HAC 40 is a large bag;
out of interest, would you be carrying a lot.?
I ended up carrying a lot, because I did some shopping and just threw my purchases into the bag. However, when I left my home initially, the bag was mostly empty except for my wallet, AirPods, and keys.
 
Did you end up keeping the bag?! Show us what is looks like on you. I think I prefer the B over the HAC just as its more practical. Though i suppose it depends on what you intend to use it for.
Last month I was green lit in the Faubourg Saint Honore store. I visited on a Saturday and didn't find anything in the ready goods that I felt like I "had to" buy. However, there was a staff member that I always speak to when I visit the shop and he was not there. It was my first time back post covid, so 3 years. I came back on the following Monday, we chatted for a bit and I told him I as unable to get an appointment to speak to someone regarding leather goods. NOTE: I was not asking him to help with this, he is not a sales person either. He asked me to wait one moment and the next thing you know he is introducing me the the head of leather goods department who then introduces me to a sales associate right away. The sales associate takes me upstairs and flat out says, "What would you like." At that point I realized nothing is off the table, nothing. So I asked what I really wanted, an HAC in 40 cm. She left for quite a long time and returned with a very large box and was apologetic. She said not only did they have zero HAC available, she could not even offer one for special order at this time.... HOWEVER, if I would like a Birkin here is one she can make available. So, I'm not crazy, I bought the bag, however I am very unsure if this is a bag I feel comfortable carrying unlike the HAC. What do you guys think?

Warm day at last! Suede Chypres with Kelly Bracelet and HAC40

Something just struck about why your outfits always look so stylish. When you you use your HACs, you fasten them properly, so the beauty of the bag is there for all to see; you do not favour the typical Birkin way of tucking the flap down the back of the bag - all that handwork wasted.

Aww thanks! Exactly! I like the bag closed. It just gets inconvenient when I need to get something from the inside of it!
 
Don't normally like to mix my brands, but I liked this combination. HAC40, Sac a Depeches bracelet, and my new Orange Bag Charm.

Love this outfit.

DH bought a few things, size medium (he is ann EU 48-50) and tried on a toile leather sling bag that didn’t work. He prefers to wear bags crossbody. It had to be clasped and adjusted by a second person and he cannot really get it over his shoulders in a comfy fashion. Also a shirt jacket with bomber details for about 1750 USD (I forgot to get the info off the tag); mens maillons en boucle aero pullover sweater; and, his favorite travel puzzle cardigans from last season ; sac a depeches 21 (brunello jeans, and custom colored Corthay boots). Also, a techno fabric mens pull over shirt with shared front pocket and h sellier buttons, black watch plaid. I bought it for my self, and DH ordered it in a bomber jacket. For fall 23.

Sadly FSH did not include the tags or reference numbers

ETA: the techno plaid also came in a fabulous rain coat with hood. Highly recommend. The only reason why DH didn’t get the short sleeved shirt is he preferred the bomber, and he doesn’t like to get multiple items in the same fabric, pattern, and color

My favourite and most used bag! I haven’t put this bag in it’s dust bag in over a year - I use it pretty much any time I go anywhere. I find myself neglecting all my other bags and just grabbing this one no matter the occasion now :smile: Mini Lindy - Gold Clemence + PHW

Love this bag and how you styled it! Do you have an Instagram where you post your other bags and how you style them?
 
Hi everyone! Sporting my newest and first H piece… Jypsiere 28 in Clemence. Love the bag but already having some difficulty with getting into it. Will start wearing it with the flap open once I get my bag insert/shaper.

Out of curiosity… My bag doesn’t have any stamping on the “arms” and it seems that basically every other jypsiere I’ve seen has that stamping. Anyone else with this bag that also doesn’t have the stamping on the arms?

it all looks very stylish and casual
persevere with getting used to the fastening
that is the (whole ?) usp of the Kelly family
they do derive from a time of travel when a secure (locked?) fastening was needed
otherwise you would have been better with a different bag

concerns with stamping should be taken up with the vendor
