I prefer the Kelly for traveling, as it has a shoulder strap. I rarely travel with a Birkin. It’s heavy, and easy to snatch. Otherwise, I love them both.

i have yet to get a birkin but love the versatility of the kelly with the shoulder strap!

Although I hate to choose sides, I’m definitely more a Kelly girl. It’s just more practical to carry

I am definitely a Birkin girl, I love the easy access to my items inside the bag :)

I am with you…if for ease alone. But I love the look too.

Birkin girl all the way, Kelly too cumbersome for my liking.

I love both for different reasons… nothing beats the ease of Birkin access (just throw everything in!); but at the moment, am having a deep love affair with the Kelly… smitten with the elegant look and clean, classic lines :D

I started as a kelly girl but grew to love the birkin too. I think both have their own charms and appeals so it’s hard to pick a favorite. I love the elegance of the kelly and that it has the shoulder carry option, but i love the ease of use and casual chic look of the birkin too. Think it also depends on which bag works better for your current lifestyle.

I strictly use Kelly’s. I could not imagine using an only hand-held bag with my twins :)

Birkin…. because it’s birkin.. lol jk… because honestly I dont know, birkin for me has different charm than kelly.. But it doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t buy kelly. I still want to have them in many different colors ;)

I’m a hardcore BIRKIN fan. I don’t think the look can possibly get any better. And as for the strap of the Kelly, it’s too thin to be practical anyway, IMO!

Birkin just on the basis of the classic, iconic image. No doubt Kelly is up there. The hardware and flap details on the Birkin just surpass the Kelly’s for me.

I´m on the Kelly team, no doubt. I love how chic and classy the Birkin is, but the Kelly´s shoulder strap wins my vote, I love resting the bag on my shoulder and having both my hands free (which is one of the many reasons I´m a total CC fan).

I must add that I carry a black Vachette Graine Ardennes 35cm Bolide more than either the Kelly or Birkin. It’s low key and very practical.
