thuyanat, is your birkin in Swift leather? Can't tell from your photo. Congrats!! I have a Orange birkin and it's actually pretty easy to wear. I say keep it!
 
thuyunat - i think you should return it and get the gold kelly. especially if you described the kelly as being "gorgeous" vs. "fabulous but not pratical birkin." good luck!

I am having the hardest time trying to match orange.
Maybe I should ask, what NOT to wear with Orange? Red and Pinks?
*clueless*
TIA :flower:
 
Hello fellow TFSers! Thank you so very much for all your helpful thoughts. :blush:

I ended up exchanging the Orange Birkin for the Kelly. The color of the Kelly makes it much easier for me to use and the leather seems more durable.

Needless to say though, I still think about the Birkin! Sometimes I think I'm crazy for exchanging it because gifts are sometimes meant to be fabulous and extravagant! So what if it's not as "practical"?! tee hee hee


Gold Epsom leather with gold hardware. White stitching. It's beautiful. I'm a lucky gal!

On another note, I went ahead and put myself on the "Wish list". Which leather is more desirable? Clemence or Togo for black?..They all looked the same in the book that was shown.

Thank you!

P.S. I tried to post the pictures from my camera phone but I get a message saying the file size exceeds the limits for this forum. Help?..Strangely, it worked before when I posted the picture of the Birkin..
 
thuyanat,
pls post pics of the kelly :) would love to see it!!

i FINALLY reserved my BLACK 35 TOGO with gold!!! they only ordered ONE!!! and i got it..
:woot: soo excited!

she tried to make me get the veau evergrain leather but i didnt know what its like. they had quite a few on order then i insisited i wanted togo and she looked for it and on the togo page, there it was. .. only one in black!! YAY
 
Sorry to repost my old question, but why do some hermes bags have the logo above the 'buckle' part and some don't (like the one posted above)?
 
thanks leyla! congrats on securing your coveted Birkin! -- what is the biggest difference between clemence and togo leather? I "wish-listed" the SAME EXACT BAG!..but now I'm thinking about the clemence leather.. thoughts?
 
i Should Have Kept The Birkin! I've Been Thinking About It The Past Few Days. Totally Regret Exchanging It!
 
Congrats, leyla, on your new bag! I want the same and plan on asking for it for a college graduation present from my parents.

I came to this thread specifically to find out some info on the collier de chien cuffs. I have tried a few on in the ATL store, but I am still really confused on the sizing, if there is any. I'm not in ATL at the moment, and I don't have a personal SA there, so I assumed this thread would be the best place to go for information. Also, does anyone know the price difference between a black croc/gator vs. black leather and palladium vs. gold hardware? TIA! :flower:
 
I would really like one. But, I literally bought a handbag not too long ago, so I'm going to wait.
 
...Hoping to get a slightly less fanatical opinion here ~

I have the chance to part with my Vibrato Birkin (Ebene, Box leather, 35cm size) and put the money towards another bag (today, I'm thinking of a blue or green HAC).

My mom/friends/online pals say I'm crazy to consider this and have to keep it. ...Also one friend thinks that I will really miss it this fall.

Should I break down & and keep it?... starting an itty-bitty mini-collection (you see, I swore off full-blown collections & same/sim-style multiples after my Chloe & YSL madness) ...Or should stick to my old resolution?

Is anyone here happy with just one HAC/Birkin? (FWIW, I also have a 40cm
Kelly, Fourre Tout and several non-H remainders, so I won't be bagless or anything, just temporarily birkinless ~ it's too hot for the vibrato here now anywayz!)

laboheme -- Did you use the Vibrato Birkin a lot this past fall and winter? Are you thinking of a dark blue or green HAC? I think to trade it for a dark color HAC would probably serve the same purpose for you with your wardrobe so if it's what you'd prefer to have, then go for it!
