Okay, so first things first, the *red*. It’s not just “red,” you know? We’re talking *Hermès* red. That’s like, a whole different level. You get your Capucine Orange – which, let’s be real, is basically a super classy, fiery red-orange. And then you have the Rouge Red, a true, deep, luxurious red that just screams “I have impeccable taste and probably a trust fund.” Or, at least, that’s the vibe I get, haha.
I saw something about Rouge H, too? That’s a warmer shade, apparently. Honestly, they have so many reds it’s kinda mind-boggling. But, like, in a good way. You can find the *perfect* red, you know? The one that just *speaks* to your soul.
And then there’s the bag itself. The Kelly. It’s not just a bag, it’s a *statement*. You see someone rocking a Kelly, especially a red one, and you *know* they mean business. It’s like a silent signal that says, “I’ve arrived, and I look fabulous doing it.”
Now, I’m not gonna lie, these things ain’t cheap. The Hermès Kelly Price Guide 2024? Probably terrifying, if I’m being honest. But hey, you can always browse eBay, right? Maybe you’ll find a gem. Or, you know, start saving your pennies now.
I saw this thing about Jean-Louis Dumas (the Executive Chairman of Hermès, bless his soul) and his doodles leading to the Kellydole (lol, “quelle idole!”) That’s kinda cool, right? Like, imagining the Kelly having this… whimsical origin. It takes some of the seriousness out of it, which I appreciate.
Also, vintage! A pre-loved, rare, iconic red Kelly… *swoon*. Especially one in that Rouge H with black leather edges? That’s just…chef’s kiss. A little bit of history, a whole lot of style. You know?
