I am looking around for some Selmas preferably in shades of red and dark red/burgundy but also wine, orange, etc, both the small crossbody and the large one. What are your thoughts about Selma starting to look dated, as I’ve read in some places? I love her look and I plan to get probably 2, not decided yet which size in which color.

I have always been of the mindset that I like what i like, and I’m not super fussed about what is “in style”.

But personally, I feel like the selma is a classic shape that will stand the test of time.

all of My Selmas are medium size. The large is a bit too large for my lifestyle, and from looking at pre-owned, the large seems to lose its shape more so than the medium.

I am working on a rainbow, so I have a classic red.
the wine / burgundy is gorgeous! There is a maroon medium for sale on fb marketplace near me if you’re interested?

My thoughts exactly!!! I rarely wear what’s trendy at the moment!
Thank you much for the offer! Let me look around a bit first. I hear you about the large Selmas, they preowned ones show their age… Are there any new, in stores? Guess not anymore.

no, unfortunately. Despite their wild popularity, they are no longer made. You can sometimes find them in outlet stores though! Several of mine are from the outlets :smile:

I might look for what outlets are around here although chances to find a new Selma are probably very slim.
I am looking for a small studded one for now. What size is the medium you were talking about earlier, please?

so, for the top handle bags (called the selma satchel), there are two sizes: medium, and large.
for crossbody bags (called the selma messenger), there are two sizes: mini, and medium.

all of my bags are the medium satchel

Thank you for reminding me the differences! I’ve been mostly on the Hamiltons subforum, so I kind of forgot Selma’s types. I definitely want the satchels. Maybe one - and only one - messenger for very quick going out but I love the satchels. Are the medium size roomy enough?

Not really on a daily basis, I’m WFH. So my medium/large bags are now dormant in their dustbags. I wear now mostly small to medium bags. I don’t need room for a water bottle because I have a special carrier for that. But still, I need other small necessities In the bag.

So. The listing had it mislabeled as dark dune. The photos (above) looked like steel gray. But in person it looks like cinder. I’m conflicted.
The color is VERY different from the photos. I’m not sure what to do.

If it's silver hardware I bet it's Cinder! I bought one years ago liking the color online but in person it had more of brown/tan tone in some light than I was thinking.
