I have to say I love the look of the B35, even though you are not that tall loli know. I am a shorty.
My first bag was the b25 in pix above (from early 2000). So by 2004, i just wanted a big bag.... and now, it’s there for sentimental reasons...

Hi,
I’m in the market for a new Birkin. I know I want Togo, black with SHW, but I can’t decide on the size. I already have an B35 in etoupe with SHW, and I love it but it is big and heavy! I know that smaller bags are the trend right now, and I do love them. I’m only 5’2”, so I think either size will work for me. But is the 25 too small? I’ve never seen one in person to know. Can you wear the 25 on your arm or are the straps too short? And which do you think is a better investment long term? I do plan to use the bag a lot, not just for evenings. Thanks in advance for any advice!!
I just received your specs in the 25 and couldn’t be happier with it. I am 5’5 close to 5’6 and find it is perfect. It fits everything I carried in my garden party 30, though I am a lighter packer. Here are some mod shots- please excuse my pjs [emoji28]!

I'm 5'0. When I was deciding on my B, I always thought B25 would be best for me. Everyone around me said the same thing. Until I was in a consignment shop and tried both B25 and B30. In an instant, I knew it would be B30 for me. The B25 just felt awkward. I could barely get it up my arm. B30 just felt right. So I went to FSH Paris and found my B30 Noir PHW last year.
I intend to get a K25 in the future for a smaller option.
My advice is to try it on in person. We can make all the plans and discuss it for months... and just one try in person will tell you immediately if it's right for you.
Why cant you just go and try that b25?see if it suit youI have been hunting a B30 in perfect leather/color/hardware combination for years and now I get an offer on B25. I have never tried B25 but my friend says B30 looks like a working bag on me and I intend to use it for afternoon tea (which I do frequently), formal parties and night events only. For reference, I’m 5’2”, should I go with B25? I don’t wanna miss that combination.
