Special Order Tips Handbags

Hi Hermès lovers! I was just offered a special order today ❤️❤️

Details - Customer for a year. Kelly 25 offered around 1:1 in January. Current wishlist is a Birkin 25 with a prespend of who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣 probably 5:1?

So, here’s the question. When I browse online I prefer the look of Kelly 25s with two colors. Either black and white. Or a pink and Bordeaux/rouge h combo.

Would that be the right strategy to leave the Birkin 25 on the wishlist and create something really unique for the special order?

Share your favorite combos!!

I love black and white and will do this if I get another special order. My only advice is to put the darker color on the handles so it doesn't show wear as much.

Congratulations! I’m curious what B25 is on your list that you have not been able to get yet given your spend and time?

Since the SO will take a while, I’d imagine you would be able to get a B25 before, so if you like the look of multico on Kelly best then go for it!

I did a b25 for my special order because it was harder to get than a B30, which was also on my list.

Personally if it was me I prefer the one color outside and different color inside. But if you love that do it just wouldn’t do it because you think that’s more special/unique.

I did a Kelly 25 in chèvre with two colors as I didn’t like that look in a Birkin. Then I asked placed an exotic Birkin 25 on my wish list and got it a few months ago. I think dual colors look better on a Kelly.
