Honestly, where do you even *start* with it? It’s not just a bag, is it? It’s a statement. A “I-have-arrived-and-my-bank-account-knows-it” kind of statement. And when it’s pink? Fuggedaboutit. Game over.
You can, like, find them on FARFETCH, apparently. Every size, every pink imaginable. And I’m not just talkin’ your run-of-the-mill, pastel pinks either, no sirree. We’re talking Bubblegum (5P!), we’re talking Rose Tyrien (a “bubbly pink”, lol, okay Hermes marketing team, I see you!), we’re talkin’ hues so specific only Hermes could think them up. I kinda dig it.
Then you get into the leather situation. Togo leather? Epsom leather? Ostrich? It’s a whole *vibe*, people. I saw one that was Epsom leather with Palladium hardware. I mean, *come on*. Just the names sound expensive. Probably are.
The mini Kellys… those are the ones that really get me. Like, why do you need a bag that can *just* hold your phone, lipstick, and credit card? Because you’re fabulous, that’s why! No room for boring stuff like keys or… I dunno, *chapstick*. Priorities, darling, priorities!
I saw one description that called a pink Kelly Mini “super rare.” Super rare? Is that even a thing that exists *more* than any other pink Kelly? Probably marketing. But it *works*, doesn’t it? It makes you want it even more.
Also, is it just me, or is the idea of a Kelly belt kinda weird? Like, the bag is already such a status symbol, do you *really* need it strapped around your waist too? Maybe. I dunno. I’m torn.
And the prices? Don’t even get me started. You could probably buy a small car for what some of these things cost. Is it worth it? Honestly? Probably not. But that’s not the point, is it? It’s about owning a piece of art. A piece of history. A piece of utterly ridiculous, over-the-top luxury.
