They are so comfy! I have 6 pairs - 2 black (LOL - a spare) and various other purple, musti, polka dot, etc.

They are comfy! I bought a brown pair and had to go back and get the same ones in black.

True. The only thing wrong with them is if you are sitting with your legs crossed, her name on the bottom shows! LOL! I don't know why, but I am ashamed to wear her shoes. But they really are great for that price point. The little ballet flats are awesome. I have 3 leather and 3 fabric ones. I tried on a pair of her platform heels and they were comfy too.

^LOL! Maybe have a cobbler put a thin sole over it? To hide her name?

Rushka, I really love seeing Birkin and Kelly worn with "rock" outfits, it really shows how versatile H bags are

maryg1 · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:51 AM

IL, great colour combo. I think gold Birkin go well with almost any colour, do you agree?

etoupebirkin · Nov 7th, 2009, 07:14 AM

Thanks nyyparis, 880, purseinsanity, Vanmiracle, Mree43, Diva999,

Maryg, I just love all the items my grandfather made. He passed away in 1967. You are so right about the craftsmanship, too.

Rushka, I am so flattered that I inspired you. You look so FABULOUS!!! Hand knit sweaters are the best. Love Love Love your shoes, too.
