Someone explain how the bag math works.

My least fav color: etoupe

My least fav bag: MK2

Somehow the two together though and suddenly I’m thinking I might need it in my collection??

Have I never seen a etoupe MK before? 🤔

Interestingly I have been thinking the exact same thing. I think it is because I bought a ton of Etoupe RTW in 2024. Also, interesting factoid, Etoupe nail polish is the best selling color at Beverly Hills and is typically half empty in the sample tray.

I'm a fan of "etoupe" in their RTW as well as the Lindy & the Kelly
Why? It's a neutral color it works all year round. Looks great with white, creams
& especially in a leather jacket
Would not want this color to be missing from my wardrobe of H bags, JMO

Hi guys!

Other than Bababebi, what other reputable authentication services are there that you guys trust?

Thank you!

I personally wouldn’t trust any one else. If I were buying a bag resale and the seller provided any other authentication, I would count it as no authentication and wonder why they didn’t do bbbb. JMO.

Agree with @Love Of My Life re etoupe for bags and rtw :biggrin:

I think a MKII would be great for you, but I would also consider the so Kelly elan as providing a bit more room. It still looks pretty streamlined . I can bring mine out for you to try, but I’m also sure you can ask to see both models beforehand at BH 😘

I always preferred phw for etoupe as sportier and more modern, but in the so Kelly elan I surprisingly like the ghw lol

I don’t believe the bigger bag trend is actually a thing. B35s are still relatively unpopular and for that reason, stores order relatively fewer of them. It’s definitely a case of you not being offered simply because they don’t have any, not because you don’t “qualify”. I would try to just stand by and visit in person whenever possible but be patient and understand that your SA can’t make bags appear unless they come in the store’s delivery and get assigned to her. Good luck! (Also maybe consider a 30, I think you’d end up happier!)

Thank you, that makes a lot of sense and I don’t mind waiting. It is a smaller store as well. I definitely am interested in a 30 at some point; for my first qb I am looking for a good work bag/diaper and snack bag that I can haul around. Right now I have the LV neverful MM, although it is much lighter.

Interesting! I use my red B35 a lot for work and would not mind a black one...I have not asked SA yet because I wanted other style/size more, but I might for this year. They are also well priced on resale, so I'm tempted by that too.

How do you like your 35 for work? It seems opinions are split on whether put your laptop in it, but I currently put a 15” laptop, charging cord, mouse and pad, plus snacks, Diet Coke, etc etc and haul it around. I don’t abuse my bags but they definitely are utilized!

Hi! Random question for you all! For your Birkin’s, do you prefer one Twilly on the front handle? Or do you like a Twilly each handle (front and back)? For reference, my bag is noir and a size 25. Thanks for your thoughts!

I either don’t do any or both, because I’d hate the handles age / dirty / color differently.

I was freakishly lucky to purchase a Hac a Dos in barenia fabourg online. It arrived today with these giant spots on the side. Is that a normal look for heritage leather? I’m not going to keep it like this, but I’m wondering if all of these are expected to have imperfections so exchange does not make sense either since I am not OK with them. Further, even if they doesn’t have imperfections to begin with, does it quickly start to look this way? I’m not someone to examine my purchases under the microscope but here you have to be vision impaired to miss it.

Nope, I saw it in Luxembourg but of course...not available, so I've asked my SA in France and I get it few weeks after. It was in summer 2023.
I really don't know for the delay of the Constance but as it is a "quota bag", I can assume that it could be more or less the same.
My advise is ask first what you want the most !

And are you happy with your cargo Picotin? Is it not too bulky?

I think I prefer to place a wish for a Birkin, I think it's more iconic than the Constance.

Do you own already Birkin?
I'm not sure whether to go for the 25 (but very impractical because of the small handles) or 30 (maybe too haevy?). I would love to own a dark blue one, like Bleu Nuit or Bleu Saphire.
