I just was offered this black box Kelly Sellier 25 and I bought it. GHW. It was unexpected and I think I love box leather the most. My only “concern” is that I save it and don’t use it enough. But I’m determined to use it!
Congrats! Gorgeous bag. I totally get what you mean about “saving” bags with more delicate leathers. I have that tendency and just have to keep reminding myself my bags were meant to be used and not just sit in my closet. I hope you use and enjoy it often ! My first Hermès bag was a black box Kelly Retourne 28 with GHW and I always love seeing other Kellys in box leather :heart: I bought it years ago when I could walk into my local H store and see Kellys and Birkins lining the shelves. They limited you to one Birkin per visit but you could pick the one you wanted off the shelves. I wish I could have afforded more bags then when it was so much easier to get them. But I had to save up awhile for that first H bag and I agonized over it before finally picking my black box which I still have today.

I would love to see a shelf full of bags to choose from! That sounds amazing.
I agree about only buying what you can afford at the time - I live my life the same way. Thank you for the kind words. I hope you use your box Kelly a lot too. I think a K28 is the perfect size! :-) I intended to use my bag the same day I bought it but it was raining so I’ll be using it during my next nice dinner out (when it’s not raining).

Just got this beauty today:
Kelly II Veau Fauve Barenia Faubourg in size 32 retourne and palladium hardware.

Someone was offered a gorgeous black croc constance 24 with diamonds.... I didn't even bother to pretend not to stare. I definitely looked from a distance. Not sure if it was purchased by them or not.
Omg!! My first time seeing BF in a kelly. Can you please also share your photos in this thread?
