You have a beautiful baby Love$2shop!! Congrats!!!

 

[UNiQFashionista]

Love to shop- Congrats!! such a beautiful combo- you'll love this forever!

Ok guys one more this or that

40cm parchement with GH
OR
JPG Etoupe with PH
OR
JPG White with PH

I know alot of you dont like JPG- Im considering it because
A- I can swing it on myshoulder and push mybaby pram or carry my baby to be
B- For variation's sake...Igot 10 birkins- so nice change

what are your thoughts?

 

[PursePrincess]

Love to shop,congrats!! that one is a classic!!!!

uNIque...get the White JPG.....my sister has that one and i borrowed it for a week(we lend each other's bags sometimes) and its nice and all,but uniq,the JPG is qute heavy for a shoulder bag,and the handles are so big(at least for my small shoulder)so its not that practical at all IMO,
so i cant imagine myself carrying a baby with that bag at the same time,i dont know about you

Thank you very much for your kind comments, chipo, Gemini, PP and UniQ!


UniQ, I used to own a JPG (in BJ) but sold it last year. All I can tell you that it is the ONLY bag I regret selling! I'd say if you already have 10 reg. birkins, go for JPG. The bag is truly a stunner and very rarely seen! I found it to be the perfect size to use for travel as well. AND, if you have a chance to get a JPG in etoupe w/PH, GO FOR IT, GIRL!!! IMO, it's one of the best colors for JPG!

UniQ: My sister has a shoulder/ JPG Birkin and I must say I think it looks so chic and edgy...Given you have a few Birkin's to choose from I think you'll love the change.

I tried on a JPG birkin today-in orange- thank god i didnt buy the etoupe (i was going to buy it from Hermes paris) because it was not comfortable at all- and way too shalow that i can imagine things falling out! I did endusp getting one gorgeous bag- totally unexpected but one SA called me and told me about a bleu roi ostrch- and hubby saw it and loved it-- it'll be here in a week or two- ill post pics when i get it..I CANT WAIT.

 

[augustus]

yes Uniq,as i said before,JPG is fab but its not practical at all,yes you are right,its too shallow,so i dont think you can use it as a diaper bag

i'm glad you have found a compensation!,please post pics when you get it

Thanks for the feedback on the shortcomings of the JPG. As I was really interested in getting one myself. All the SAs I have met have tried to dissuade me from the JPG and now I know that its not just because they are hard to get but because they aren't comfy or practical!

I know this sounds horrible but are there any places where you can get Hermes significantly discounted?

Your bag is so great! I love Birkins and really like it in the black. Enjoy!

......
Dear,there's no such thing as hermes bags being significantly discounted,overpriced yes(creaturesdeluxe.com),not discounted...B)

 

[joiedemode]

Yes...the only way to get a discount Hermes is if it has been rotting in the sewage for 3 years

Your help/opinions needed please! I have to decide which 35 cm birkin to choose - both in togo leather - Etoupe or Rouge Garance? I really want a togo bag over clemence, but am concerned that Rouge G doesn't look as good in Togo as it does in clemence?! What do you guys think? TIA !

Love2$Shop - that's a queen among bags. congrats!
