This would not surprise me at all. Remember the article someone posted about Michael Kors declining sales and the lack of variety in bags from which to choose over the holiday season? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...-skimp-on-new-designs-in-face-of-handbag-woes

It was rumored for close to a year that Kate Spade was retiring their most popular style Maise and for months they kept adding new colors and styles. Now Maise is no more except on deep discount but no new bags. It has been replaced by a similar but larger domed satchel. Maybe MK thinks they have done all they can with Selma and want to introduce a new satchel. Especially if sales have declined due to lack of variety. Look now they have resorted to that horrible interchangeable "jackets" for the Selma which says to me they have run out of ideas. Of course they replaced the Sutton satchel with Savannah which backfired. I don't think Savannah is nearly as popular as Sutton. Unfortunately for us, the companies don't announce these things so my advice for Selma lovers is to buy them while you still can. I love Selma and hope it is not true but am not counting on it

I agree. Those jackets are lame. I don't care for them at all. You have to buy a special Selma to be able to use them, too. I really don't like the snaps at the top corners where the jackets connect to the purse. SMDH

I agree cdtracing. I don't mind the jackets so much as those snaps at the top corners of the bag. They stand out and look out of place on the sleek, classic design.
 
Hi. Im new here. I have recently got myself a black medium Selma satchel. The interior lining seems different as compared to my black medium selma messenger. https://forum.purseblog.com/attachments/20170119_230853-jpg.3579125/ Im worried now tt it may be a fake. So is it? TIA

No it's original..this is one of the newer interior since end 2015/ 2016..many bags have already this interior or a newer interior where michael kors is written just smaller and not so often written as on the outlet bags

View attachment 3579283this is one of the newer interior of the MK bags..also on some special edition selmas is the michael kors logo smaller written

Thanks for the heads-up pertaining to the various designs of Michael Kors interior linings for MK handbags - it is good information to know.:tup::smile:

Same here, I do not like 1) those snaps on the top corners and 2) those jackets because [at least for me] those snaps, as well as, those jackets [both] destroy the classic silhouette/sleek design of the [OG] Selma.

I very much prefer the classic silhouette/sleek design of the [OG] Selma.:smile:
 
Hi, New to the michael kors forum.

I just saw the new look tonight on the website and I have to agree. I have a selma. Messenger . I've been holding off on a selma until I found the right one. I may need to pull the trigger sooner. I've never understood changing something that's works. If it's not a broken , why fix it? Just my opinion.
 
Hi, does the large black Selma ever go on sale any time of the year on the Michael Kors website? Or does it always stay $358? I know they just had a sale but that was on certain selected items and wasn't this bag. I know I can get it on ebay but I want the whole MK packaging with it new. I just didn't know if they ever do a special 25 percent off regular priced items or not. Thanks!

I don't think I have ever seen it on sale. But someone else might have....if so it does not go on sale often

Thank you for your reply, I finally ordered one off ebay from a trusted seller last week and got it. It was new with tags on it and a dust bag and I got it for $235 so I was happy to have saved $123. It is beautiful and I bought a black matching jet set travel wallet new too.
 
Hi there! :)
I need advise... which keychain looks better with my Navy Selma? :)
I like them all and so hard to choose the best :biggrin:.
