Spot on! I'm having the same dilemma right now on which size to get. I imagine the 32 would look nicer when worn crossbody (at least on my body frame) but as a top handle i feel the 35 look better. May i ask how tall are you? seeing how you rock the 32 i'm leaning towards the 32 now:giggle:

Hey! I'm 5.5.
I do agree with you, I think the 32 is perfect for crossbody. Which is my favorite way to wear my bags
I was really trying buy a 35, but here in my local store it's very rare, tried preloved, but they wasn't in the best condition.. the 32 started to grow on me, and after all, was a very good choice!

I think the 32 looks perfect on you. 35 in retourne looks like a giant briefcase.

Here’s my “French man living in Berlin but happens to be on holiday in San Francisco look” featuring a Plume 32 in the rare Rouge H Dwich evercalf leather.

For the record: I’m not French, I don’t live in Berlin and sadly I’m not on holiday but I do live in SF.

I am not French, but I do live in Berlin and used to live in San Francisco and you nailed it!

You make me miss SF.

You are a somewhat new member relatively speaking (where were you all these years?!?!), but you have really brought a breath of fresh air to this forum! I always enjoy your posts.

It was your touch Birkin that made me going from EW to LOVE of exotics. How do you not carry that everyday?

Wow! Thank you for those incredibly kind and thoughtful words. I almost don’t know what to say other than I’m really glad you’re enjoying my contributions to the forum! You’re all pretty wonderful too and everyone here has made me feel quite welcome. I guess it goes both ways! :drinks:

In regards to my Kween, my first exotic —it’s really hard not to give her preferential treatment to be honest. But I must remain faithful to all my other wonderful bags and make sure everyone gets a turn to shine. Plus weather, wardrobe and destination always play a huge role for something like this. Wouldn’t wanna get caught in the Tenderloin strutting my stuff with my Queen in my hand...

In other news... had a fabulous day out shopping with the girls yesterday. Since my Birkin 42 JPG II in Iris Togo came back from the spa, I figured it’d a great opportunity to take him out.

His name is Jean Paul Gaultier, he loves being the biggest Birkin in the room and we enjoy having a cigarette or two on Maiden Lane before and after a shopping spree at Hermés.

Oh WOWZA! i love your JPG..what colour is he? (too bright to be raisin..Iris?) How do you find the bag to carry?
I've been tempted by the idea but I wonder if `it'll be a faff to get in and out of as its too shallow to wear open.
Btw..Is the Tenderloin STILL bad? I used to spend a lot of time in SF in the 90's I remember it was something of a no-go area then.
Really sketchy!

He’s Iris! Such a beautiful and dynamic color —more on the cooler side than the warmer Cassis and Violine on my B30 Touch.
I wear him closed most of the time but once I start loading stuff in —I stick to leaving him open. He’s so slouchy and floopy that it’s super easy to get in and out. It’s a very under appreciated bag... I absolutely love it and will probably buy a JPG I in Clemence... heavier and chunkier hardware but I think it’s totally worth it.

I usually either pick the bag first and build my outfit around that or the other way around.
Since I usually need a jacket in SF, the JPG is perfect to carry that around in case I need it. We all know how SF weather can change from super sunny to holy #### I’m freezing.

The tenderloin has only gotten worse, it was OK for a tiny bit and then COVID struck and it’s worse than ever. I don’t even like to drive through there anymore.

I’m adding this color to my wishlist. It’s a lovely blue, congrats!

That shirt really shines in person, I got a chance to see it in the store and it looks quite rad.

Is this the "marine" color on the web page? It looks a lot nicer in the photos here if it's the same. Stores are closed here, considering sending a pic of this in case they have this or one of the sweaters, but it's better to get the color right since it's a hassle to exchange and the entire buying process now. Stock is usually very low and random so probably they don't.
