Appearance: Structured scales, either highly glazed or matte
Feel: Structured and textured
Hand: Rigid
Change over time: Develops a deep patina; shiny finish softens, while matte finish acquires a subtle glow
The story behind
Created in the 1930s, the Kelly bag was named in 1956 when Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco unveiled it to the world. Its shape and iconic details have since been adapted and redesigned to create small leather goods. Straps, claps, padlocks, leather bells and keys enhance wallets, coin purses or pouches that can be worn in many different ways.

Pale alligator and rain are not compatible so this is a fair weather bag, which limits it more than I want to admit.

I bought this on a trip and had no plan to buy anything that day. The color is the reason, it goes purple in the evening and pink in the sun and I still can't decide which I prefer. Came with the strap so it works across the body on long days.
