I'm planning on purchasing a small birkin for when I'm not at work. Off duty, I don't usually carry a lot of things. Should I get a 25cm or a 30cm? My SA said to get a 30 but there's something endearing with the 25. I'm worried the 25 may look too small for me but I've seen guys on Instagram with the 25 and it looks great on them. Any thoughts?

Personally, if you were going for a smaller one, I'd go with the 30. I handled both in a store once, and you can really barely get anything in the 25...
 
Opinions needed: I have the birkin itch and I'm really wanting a 40cm. I love my noir 35cm to death and wear her often but sometimes I find the size to be to small for my height and stature, but other times I think it's perfect. I also have a 40cm SO that I'm waiting for, so should I sell my 35cm to fund a new 40cm or should I keep the 35cm and be patient and wait for my SO to arrive?

Keep the 35 and wait for the 40. I have the 40, and I'm hoping my next Birkin will be a 35. What colour is your SO btw?

Keep the 35 and then try it along with your 40! You'll really get to understand what works for you then. And then if you find you like both for different situations, you will not have lost anything? What is your SO combo?

I got a 25, and love it. It holds the basics I use through the day. I'm aware i must look like a gorilla carrying a baseball, but...for grab and go it's the most efficient bag I have.

Edit: I sold my 30s...I found them too large for grab and go use, and too small for full on daily use.
Maybe I'm too demanding, but I buy for a specific use/need.

Thank you all for your previous opinions but I couldn't scratch this B40 bug so introducing my new to me B40 in Ardennes leather. I purchased from a dear friend of mine who gave me a deal I couldn't resist. I guess it all worked out, I got my B40, I get to keep my B35 and I still have my SO coming! Le sigh [emoji847]
