Do You Prefer Size 30 or 35 Birkin?

[Rami00]

30 only for me! I am 5'7' for reference... Tried size 35 and felt like it was carrying me.

I have the opportunity to purchase a 30 cm birkin in black or a 35 cm in etoupe . I am thoroughly confused as the black is a more wearable color than etoupe . Although I know I will use etoupe a lot too . I am just not sure as to if 30 is too small . Please advise .

Will they let you buy both??

They are totally different looks. Depends on what you want to use the bag for. I have both sizes. I use my etain 30 for going out for dinner because you can definitely dress up with a 30. And I use my gold 35 during the day, like going out for brunch/lunch, shopping etc.

It's a great dilemma to have and I wish you all the best with your decision

I agree it's a great dilemma to have!!! I have a Rouge garrance 30cm Birkin and definitely prefer the 30 to the 35. I am barely 5 ' 3" so 35 seemed too big. It all depends on your personal preference...wardrobe etc...
Can't go wrong with either one!

I prefer 30. I am 5' 5". 30 is much lighter and black to me is year round classic color.

What leather is each bag in?

30 black. Is the perfect bag. I find the 35 a bit too big for easy everyday. It is not a good look for dinner and or going out. Just too much of it. The 35 LOOKS super chic but it is a big bag to lug around. If you are in your car, get out and go into lunch or work and then get back into the car and then home. Maybe. Walking and shopping etc it's a pain IMO

I would get the B30 in black because you have a B35 already. Then you would have a choice of which size to carry. My 2 cents.

The 35B in etoupe may look more casual in that size and leather, and you already have an orange 35B, so I would go with the 30B in black.

30 please👍

Both are very wearable colors. I would go by the size you'd prefer. Do you like your B35? If you never thought it's too big, then you should stay with B35. But if you sometimes wish it'd be lighter, then give B30 a try. Plenty of us use B30 as a handbag rather than a tote, and find its size and weight are more manageable.

Both are great choices for a Birkin, I wish you could get both! If possible I would suggest going into boutique and seeing both pick the one that makes your heart happy! Already owning Orange B 35 I would chose Black 30... Black goes with everything and is a true classic that you can use for any occasion....

Take the Black B30!

Bumping this thread in case anyone is interested. It's an age-old dilemma, lol.

I prefer 35cm no doubts! I feel like sometimes I even ran out spaces from 35cm maybe should get a 40cm
