![]() Did you Know? Fact on Hermes Alligator Kelly Bag Fun designer handbag fact of the day - did you know it takes not one, but two alligators to create the Hermes Kelly handbag. The best exotic skin is found on the jowls and tummy of the gator. The belly is used for the body of the bag and the neck skin becomes the sides.

I would doubt that lol. unless that 2 HUGE and flawless alligators. Ive heard it takes a whole alligator hide just to make one single CDC bracelet (about 8 inch x 2 inch) SO i would guess at least 4 or 5 would be needed for a kelly bag.

Yes, Britney makes 800,000 a month (no joke) and still carries fakes. Somewhere out there is an article showing her getting off a plane with that sleazy manager and buying a bunch of fake D&G bags from a street vendor. |
