Hi,

I am looking to buy a 25cm birkin from luxury-shops.com! Had it authenticated and its good to go but I have one quiery, is a 25cm too small? I am not sure if I have seen one or not, and my local Hermes store does not have one is store to show me!

anyway, I would love some advice from people who have seen the 25cm or own one about its size....would you say its too small? Can it be carried on the arm, eg not just in hand? Is it worth the money? Or should I spend a little more and get a 30?

Bare in mind I have two 35 birkins, which I love but find a little too big for every day things.....they are great for travelling or if I am out for the whole day and need lots of bits and pieces but too big for just a phone, purse, make up bag and baby bottle(this is the usual everyday content of my bag).......do you think 25 would be too small for all this?

Ive tried a 25 in an exotic skin , they are very small for a daybag imo - my SA said its an evening bag only, but maybe some ladies would/could use it in the day (it wouldnt be for me personally). Can you go to a boutique and try a 30cm perhaps?
 
Thanks Amber, I plan to go to my store tomorrow and look at the 30cm in more detail.....I think that will be a better size for me! I do love the 35cm but find it just a touch too big, and it does get heavy with even a small amount of stuff in it ;-(
 
I have the 25 cm Birkin in exotics. I mostly wear them for evening but sometimes carry them everyday, if I don't want to load up my bag. I wear 30 and 35 as well. The larger the bag the more I fill it up and sometimes it's just too heavy
