The Hermes Kelly bag - sizes and general advice

I get many questions about the Kelly bag and Hermes bags in general,Hermes On Sale so now I do my best to fight against some of the most frequently asked questions in this post ! I would point out that I 'm certainly no expert . I only have a few things and I bought Hermes and off for about a decade . I tried my best to share my views come from my own experience. I hope this is helpful to some of you ! What size do you recommend ? Hermes has a lot of different sizes of bags Kelly - quoted 15cm, 20cm, 25cm, 28cm, 32cm, 35cm, 40cm are the most common. Sizes that I have in bold is probably the most popular for the reason that they reflect a reasonable amount without feeling " great." I have the 28cm ( black) and 32cm (green / gray ) and you can see how they compare in size up - they are very similar and correspond to a similar amount . I am very pleased to have both the 28cm and 32cm size and they both fit in my life. If I had only one size , but it would be 28cm . It is lightweight and easy to carry, is a decent amount , but it's still pretty small to easily transition to night . Sellier or return ? For a quick and dirty explanation refers to the saddlebags you see Kelly with edges / corners very sharp, and refers back to these bags with corners " softer". All you see are Birkin's return to the example - there is no option saddle where there are pockets Kelly. My two Kelly are back, I personally prefer that I have a more relaxed lifestyle and returns tend to hold more Kelly style saddle. That being said, for me, a saddler Kelly Kelly is classic and can look very chic and architectural . They also tend to hold their shape better - Kelly bags in a size 35 or even 32 and returns that can be done in a soft leather " awkward " for a while. What leather? My favorite leather for Kelly would Togo / clemence , goat, and the box . Kelly made ​​my gray Togo leather and it is a beautiful leather , durable and flexible that resembles a leather pillow! He is also great in the rain and is very sturdy (unlike most delicate leathers such as box). My recommendation for the box is strictly theoretical , Hermes Birkin Handbags and in my mind , because I do not have a leather case. However, I have a much cherished Kelly box and it is in my mind the combination par excellence. I want to have a bag in the box one day. My favorite is , however , like many other goat leather - it's waterproof, light as a feather , has a nice texture and color is gorgeous . I wish I had more bags goat! What is everyone? Above is a picture of what I usually carry in any pocket - 32cm size is just right in front of the 28cm on the left , the more these elements to 32cm . The 28cm of course for all the elements in front of him . In the 28th I usually have my sunglasses , wallet, cell phone , makeup and keys (not shown). In the 32 , I can ease my favorite precious Kindle , mints and a snack bar ( always a good idea if I end up ordering a breakfast burrito in the morning ) . I will add that I do not like cluttering my case - I can never something when that happens and I answer my phone when trying to end up spilling . You could probably fit more in your pocket if you want, but I suggest you do not weigh too much ! Kelly is to achieve the "easy" ? Shopping, shopping , day by day , I bring with me on Kelly race and it's just for this purpose pocket - there is a shoulder strap, a large living room and a secure top so things they no longer fall into the car. However, I must say that when I do a lot of things and carry things in and out frequently , I found a bag easy to carry - you do not need anything " unclasp " , items are out and there is a lot of space. These days , I usually wear a garden party . Travel: On most of my vacation , I like to go to a lot, but also worry about effects is safe. Personally, I would take my 32 Kelly on holiday in the city - it may be quite hard for a few hours and the size is probably a little "wee" too big for my preference , but I have a friend who used to be 35 trips Beijing / Hong Kong. 28 size for me is perfect for exploring the city. Work: I wear my Kelly often at work! The design is still pretty quiet and not recognized as the Birkin . He carries everything you need . Most days On days when I do I get briefcase , tote instead of an open top . How hard is it to keep " and expectorant reclasping " all the time ? On the subject of the loop - I rarely wear my Kelly " All buttoned up " but usually leaves the suspension straps and just shook his turn lock . Closed in this mode, it is essentially a step to open Kelly - just turn the lock and fold the top! Close to do the opposite. I can open and close 28cm waist with one hand while the bag hangs on my shoulder. But for the 32 , it is difficult that the bag is a little larger and heavier, with one hand to close for me - sometimes I have to use my other hand and turn the bag so that I could close . Of course this can be awkward ! This may be because I 'm short and have T-Rex arms - would love to hear if other women have this problem ! More tips ? My advice when buying something , especially something like a handbag that is you all the time, do your research . Take your time and figure out what you like! If you can, visit a local store and try different sizes , see the color pattern and leather, and see if other bag styles may work better for you . Hermes bags are for me at least , a luxury that I do not buy every day, works of art that should be appreciated, and you must make sure that you personally like the style , color, size , this information. These are expensive items that are used and enjoyed it . Are not pressured or feel a special pocket to buy just because it is popular everywhere now , or will be offered. The law will come! Each bag is not for everyone ! There are many types out there that I like on others, but just do not work for me. Again, you take time to explore yourself Hermes Kelly Handbags , and I 'm sure you'll find the perfect one for you .
