Birkin or HAC

[impulse09]

Hi im a first time here and would like to ask for advice as a first time buyer of hermes bag. Shall I get a birkin or HAC? If it's a birkin what size 30 or 35cm? I'm a petite. I just found out about HAC today. Info from seller on ebay. Please advice.

Thank you.

You might want to post this to the Hermes forum. There is tons of info and pictures plus very lovely people to help you out! But be careful, it's addictive....

Thank you Kelly H, really appreciate it.

There are quite a lot of threads on this with great info - it might help if you do a quick search and see pictures of both bags. Good luck!

I love the HAC in 36. I think it has great proportions... It's a fabulous bag for the active woman.

I only have a 32 HAC and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. And I am 5'1" and 100lbs. It's the perfect size for me.

I like the HAC too. Just a little different in proportion.

I'm a 5'3, for a first time buyer of hermes bag is a 30birkin is a right size for me? I love it togo leather.

I am 5'7" and find the 30cm too small for me. 30cm should be good proportionally to your stature, so long as you don't carry a TON of stuff in your bags. 30cm still holds a lot, but more of a handbag than a tote. I wish I could carry the 30cm as the profile is slightly slimmer than the 35cm, which I find is quite wide. This is where the HAC comes in. The HAC has a slimmer profile, which I prefer.
