Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I found this article online and couldn't help chuckling. Wanted to share with all of us dreamers who always hope for a birkin or a boyfriend-kin!


Omg, thanks for sharing. Hubs and I had a good chuckle watching this. What a sweet guy. Love that the craftspeople applauded his efforts.
OMG lol, that sweet little lumpy Birkin!

A bro-kin? :giggle:
Or a Bumpkin. Lol.
 
hi thank you for the replies,as for the PHW the tarnishing makes the bright polished silver into duller shade of silver? can it be repaired by jeweller cloth ?
and for the GHW have you experienced any tarnishing ? As in the colour started turning red/has dark spots ? and if so can it be repaired by polishing cloth as well ? cheers
None of my ghw bags have tarnished and I have a B35 GHW epsom
In gold color from 2000 and never has tarnished. I also have a B25 in lime swift with GHW from 2020 that is in great condition. I think GHW is a safe bet!
 
I believe that's the Rimowa Weekender. @880
Thanks for thr tag @Meta

@bagnut1 , yes, as per @Meta, it’s the rimowa weekender.
the only thing I don’t like about it is that it doesn’t unzip fully flat like an open book
but it’s lightweight and I think almost more sturdy than the rimowa roller lol
the flat outside pocket is full size, and useful for iPads and such.

@imsophie , I agree with @forgetmenot301 on reasons for passing on the touch. I personally think the jump in price is not warranted given the small amount of exotic that will never be seen. Of course some people like the subtlety of the hidden exotic, but I can be subtle in other, less expensive ways. Hardware too is usually a deal breaker for me. JMO though.

Just wanted to to share that I receive daily prayers from my church group whom I volunteer with, and just this morning I received one that said "orans" is medieval latin for "one who is praying or pleading". Not sure what orans means to Hermes but just thought this was interesting:smile:.
Oran is a city in Algeria...I think but do not know that Orans are meant to look like/are a design derived from those very flat Algerian sandals with the wide leather strap.

Thanks for everyone’s opinion. I actually just picked up the bag and really love the two different grey shades in two different leather types. I don’t have any gris in my collection. I’m ok with the phw too, but hopefully the next one will be ghw or rghw. SA suggests that I don’t use Twilly. I’ll see how it goes. Haha. Thanks for letting me share.

Omg dead love love love !!!! Congrats. I hope I will be able to join you soon in the touch club. Maybe the lighting but does it have greenish under tone? Is it matte? Is it noticeably heavier than the regular b? Such a beautiful color.

Thank you! I compare it with my white B25, it actually looks bigger in picture I have no idea why. It is matte alligator I really love it. I think it’s definitely the lighting. The regular is Gris Meyer, I’m not sure if it usually has greenish undertone? It is my first gris bag.

enjoy!! I think you can get away without twillies since the handles are darker.
