My new to me Kelly 40 Sellier Mou (authenticated by Bababebi) I tried it on a whim and it was love at first sight.
What I love is the construction of the Sellier Mou makes a Kelly of this size look very relaxed like a Kelly/Birkin feel.
The bag will need spa at some point but meanwhile I’m going to enjoy it and embrace its imperfections!
It came without any of the accessories which isn’t a deal breaker for me because I wouldn’t wear the lock and key clouchette on it anyway and a bag this size needs a wide fabric strap which I plan to get. 07065059-E608-4FEF-AFA8-BF27423A61E6.jpeg

Congratulations!! A K Sellier Mou is very special and a real find. Enjoy using this beauty.
 
Just moved across the country (third cross country move in seven years), and decided to check out the H store in Bellevue. Ended up with a new SA, she took my preferences for a wishlist, and fell in love with a straw visor. I've seen it online but in person, it's gorgeous. I guess it's not the best for blocking out the sun (that's the job of spf 50, a sunhat, and staying out of the sun if possible) but it fits my large head.

Congrats! So happy you finally found the perfect bag of your dreams.

Thank-you!
I have tried a fair few pre-owned Kelly (32's and 35's) and Birkins at consignment stores and Auction houses but none made me want to 'push the button'
I have a wish-list at my boutique for a 35 or 40 Kelly retourne, but I wasn't 100% sure that was what what I wanted tbh.
When I saw this bag it really 'spoke' to me I tried it and fell in love despite its flaws (which were reflected in the price).
The 'Mou' just felt so right in a way that other larger Kelly's didn't.
I purchased with a 28 day return policy but of course once I had it home I loved it even more!
Next year I plan to send it to spa but in the meantime I will wear it and enjoy it.
I Firmly believe whether buying pre-owned or in the boutique the right bag just 'speaks' to you.
A bit like rehoming an animal (which I have also done a fair few times!)
