After a year full of disappointment with my local store, I treated myself to this lovely 28 Rouge Vif Box Kelly from 1993. Completely makes up for the H mess in 2019.

Happy new year everyone!

Beautiful and wishing 2020 is completely the opposite for you regarding your local store & brings lots of joy and treasures!
 
Got this for my mom as early birthday present for when she visits me in couple weeks. Didn’t realize it was tonal stitching until I got home! More formal looking but probably a good thing for mom!
I think this is a perfect present! Looks a tad more formal compared to the contrast stitching ones as you said, but I think it also highlights the GHW.

Thanks! And that is a good point. I was looking at it in store, thinking it was too dark but decided to go with it any way. I do think you are right on it highlights the GHW. I just hope she will like it (truly, and not just because it’s from me.)
 
I am on the fence about it. I am trying to imagine it in a retourne Kelly and I'm struggling. I do like the sheen and non ridged feel so we shall see
I think you should wait.. in a retourne a softer leather would be so much nicer.. especially knowing your preference for soft leathers like clemence.. go see it for sure.. but it’s too expensive to settle I think

Side note.. how is the leather compared to chèvre?

You are right I do like softer leathers... I hate that the bag I want is seemingly unavailable in the combination I want hahaha
Compared to chevre its thinner and smaller texture but in some ways very similar.
 
Huge congratulations, dear renet! The Kelly To-Go is perfection! :hbeat: I'm so happy for you! :hugs: I hope your DH is doing well, I wish you both all the best! :heart:

The Kelly to-go is gorgeous. Congratulations!!

I am kind of new to Hermes so please forgive me for my ignorance - I have never seen a Kelly wallet to-go. I assume it is difficult to get your hands on one?
