Do You Prefer Size 30 or 35 Birkin?

[Pepper]

I don't know for sure, but it looks like a 35 to me.

35cm, but I like bigger bags. I will go smaller with a bright colored bag.

Yes; in retrospect am a little sorry to have 2 brightly colored 35 Birkins. I almost never carry them. I just can't carry off bright color in that size.

^^Yep, this advice was given to me by my SA. When something's colored the eye can't help but be drawn to it and it appears larger than something that is dark.

^That's true. The first time I saw a dark 35 I couldn't believe how small it seemed, versus my expectations.

Oddly, I have no interest in acquiring a 30 in order to justify color. I am happy with color in a 31 Bolide (or a small Kelly, although I don't have a colored one).
The black and neutral 35 Birkins get the most use, without a question.
For me, a Birkin is a glorified tote. A 30 defeats that purpose (for me).

Def 35!

35 for me -- I carry too many H accessories for anything smaller.

35

35!! I was lucky enough to try on a 30cm birkin before deciding on and eventually purchasing my 35cm birkin. I'm petite (5'3), but felt that the 30cm felt too small for me. I prefer larger bags, and for me, the 35cm felt right.

35 all the way baby.

 

[Fesdu]

30 for me. I am a wimp, i can't handle the weight.

Can anyone who is 5'6 or taller take pics with size 30 and post them here?
I'm thinking about getting size 30 for my 3rd Birkin, but not sure if it looks silly on me or not.....
