Interesting. Makes you wonder about her jewelry....

I know, right. She said it is a fake birkin and she owns it. Said her husband would never buy her one and she had planned to use her bravo money but then decided it was too much. Hers is fake and Taylor's from Beverly Hills had fakes. I know there was speculation in the past one of the NY housewives had fakes. I wonder how any have real birkins and how many have fakes.

I admit that watching the Real Housewives shows is one of my guilty pleasures. The Miami housewives episode where Leah and Lisa go to Miami was an interesting one with all the talk of how to acquire a Birkin. The male friend of Leah's who brought his Birkin collection to show to Lisa seemed fishy to me. I only own one Birkin, so I'm definitely not an expert, but I thought that many of his looked fake. The ones that were shown close up all had a line of stitching that went all the way around the bag, just under the straps, like you'd see with a toile bag. Particular attention was paid to a turquoise colored one that had bunching leather near the piping on one of the sides. Definitely didn't look like Hermes quality to me.

I was in my local boutique yesterday and mentioned it to my SA and another SA. Neither of them had seen this episode, so they're going to watch it and give me their opinion.

I'm pretty sure the bags were fake and it's so disgusting because Leah and Lisa were treating this guy like he's a god because he has such a fabulous collection of Birkins, and viewers who have no idea will see these bags and wish they could be so lucky.

Maybe this poor guy doesn't know they're fakes (unless I'm wrong), but if he does, shame on him!!

I noticed this too but I thought maybe it was because they were all most B50's? I've never seen a 50 IRL so I couldn't be sure.

I'm not to sure either. I watched the clip and noticed a few were HACs, which do have a line of stitching underneath the straps and hardware. I guess we will just have to wait and see...the truth will come out of they are not true H items.

Oh, I didn't know that about HAC's, so perhaps I'm wrong. Thanks for chiming in.

I've never seen a 50 IRL either, so maybe that's it. But, the turquoise bag just looked like it wasn't made well. The leather looked plasticky (maybe it was Epsom?) and there was that puckering issue. I'm sure if they're fake, he'll be called out on it.

Lisa posted a few pictures weeks back of the different birkins. Maybe the SAs can check those out.

OMG, Leah is a liar? The birkin in tonight's show was a Lagoon, correct? Uhhhh how did she supposedly get that from Hermes since it has not been in production since....like 2008? Either it was fake, or she bought it from Priveporter or something? (Didn't they have one this month?) I bet it was fake...

If its a fake they dressed it up in the right packaging. She didn't get the bag until they got back to Miami it appeared. What was weird was Lisa was discussing with Leah how buying the first is always the hardest, by the time you get to the third it's easy. Lisa also discussed how when she walks in with that one, it will be easy to get offered another one. Makes me wonder if the other birkins she has been shown with including her black last night are fakes or if she said this because it was bought in the store and as Lea mentioned, Lisa paid for it. What do you think?

Here is the pictures of the other Birkins posted from their California trip in case some of you who discussed it with your SAs wanted to show them or an opinion.

I see 6 HACs (40 or 50cm) and 1 B (40cm?). The B looks a little small to be a 50, and with the sides pulled out like that I'm not sure since I can't see the feet.

I just think it is bizarre to load up all of your ginormous travel birkins into the trunk of your car and go throw them on the floor of somebody's house to play with them. That was the weirdest scene to me.

I don't know if these are fakes are not but I don't why Lea would buy fakes - it doesn't make sense to me unless she's duped - but she's not a stupid woman and her husband must make a make a good living - they certainly seem to have the money to afford real ones. Lisa seems a little more naive to me and seems to be desperately wanting to project a certain image. Now any birkin carried by Adrianna, I would tend to believe is a fake - given the fake the marriage; the horrendous boat that they can't seem to afford to refurbish etc. I really don't know how either Adriana or her husband/fiance/boyfriend whatever she is calling him at the moment does to make a living other than the fees Adrianna gets from appearing on RHOM.
