we love Kelly in Brighton Blue is our absolute highlight of the hour. We wear them elegantly relaxed with blue jeans, a white blouse, loafers and a casual trench coat. She is both our companion and our jewel at the same time, that's all we need!
About: Originally known as the Sac à Dépêches, it was designed by Hermès CEO Robert Dumas in the 1930s as a refined version of the house's larger saddlebags. It had a defined trapezoidal shape with practical straps and was designed to be as discreet as it was elegant. 25 years later, her true star potential was recognized. While working on the Hitchcock classic To Catch a Thief in 1954, actress Grace Kelly received a sac à dépêches, which she wore as part of her character's wardrobe. Grace loved the bag so much that she continued to carry it after the film finished. After her wedding, newly pregnant with her first daughter, Grace turned to her trusted sac à dépêches to protect her growing baby bump from the waiting paparazzi. The image appeared in magazines around the world - and the newly crowned "Kelly" bag was thrust into the spotlight. The Sac à Dépêches bag was officially renamed the "Kelly" by Hermès in 1977 - a nickname she has borne ever since.
