Mine is definitely a 30cm White Himalaya Birkin. I have requested one in store but as the store near me is very small, I have been told they do get them, but rarely. My HG has definitely evolved over time. It was initally a Birkin, then Birkins (plural), now a Himalaya Birkin. So let’s see how long the dream takes to come to fruition. I can wait!!

cheers! it was your photographs that brought me here ?

i admire women who can wear heels!
i grew up in southamerica and for some genetic accident we are all tall in my family, i was also a tomboy who rode horses and broke her ankles, last time was last year when i broke my left ankle crossing the road! that was it, a plate and six screws later my son’s gf and got some of my heels
because of my height, growing up it was trainers, ballet flats, birkensocks, army boots…never learnt to feel comfortable in heels unless they were plataforms
i used to work for an italian high end fashion house and spend the day surrounded by amazing, beautiful heels…sigh
so ladies, wear those heels proudly, i’ll be in the sidelines cheering you on

my HG was the bag that started all the madness: the chloe paddington, i was obssessed by it! my first one was a really good fake and that was how i discovered TPF. eventually i owned a 05 tan paddy (sold) and kept a brun and grenat paddys and i have a soft spot for older chloe bags: soft, creamy leather and that lovely leather smell…
then i moved to baleciaga, my HG was a magenta city which i got but that did not stop the madness! after it i needed a dior gaucho (got it) so i kept moving the goal post
yes, i would love a SO hermes birkin but i am realistic, short of winning lotto there is no way i’ll be getting one, sad but true! at least i know that is my HG of HG and will remain so with no chances for dissapointment which i think can be common once you get “the” bag as the ilusion becomes reality

loving this thread!! spring is by far my favorite season, so I am ready for everyone’s eye candy

sweet story swedishandstylish! and not to mention that red bag and shoe combo is to die for! Couldn’t ever tell heels were touch for you because your rock them effortlessly…looking forward to more posts :)

I love my mini Karlitos!!!! I missed out on the big one though :(

An overabundance of BLACK, wouldn’t you say⁉️

I just love this story swedishandstylish, haha the converse. I had those with the big star too. I dread the day I won’t be able to wear high heels, but for now I like to even push the stroller in my heels! I love your style girl. I call you an effortless beauty. You are a natural. Stay smiling and sharing. I love reading your posts here ;) (oh, and what I would do to be as tall as you ?) As for me, I think I was born with heels on!

Swedishandstylish, I was more like you except for the absence of height. Clogs were probably the highest heel I wore, and this was in the age of “candies” platforms. Somewhere along the line, after marrying a man over 6′, I found it was nice being closer to his height. Then as my boys headed over my head, my heels lifted higher and higher until I found myself driving carpools in 3″ heels. Now I love wedges and extra inches but try to keep it 3″ or under unless they’re to die for . . . And qualify as “sitting shoes.”

swedishandstylish you brought the most bright smile to my face reading this. It’s 6:30 am and I’m reading this on my iPhone in bed and giggling… and Mr. PurseBop wants to know “whats so funny?” I am reading it outloud to him and it’s impossible for me to imagine you anything but suave and graceful. The swedishandstylish we see today is a MODEL.

My story is a little different. I have always been a girls girl and could not grow up fast enough. My parents were very social growing up and my “aunties” (my mothers closest girlfriends) would come to our home with their fancy bags and high heels. My eyes would check out their glistening ‘pencil’ stilettos and when any of them would take their sandals off I would sneak away with them, strap them on my tiny feet and imagine the day I would grow up to be able to wear a pair just like them. This went on for years, secretly in our long hallway with a mirror at the far end. I am trying to remember my first pair and I truly can’t swedishandstylish, but I will call mommy later today to see if she remembers ? ? Thank you for sharing your story ❤️ I’ll be back to share what Mom tells me…XO

the painted bag is absurd, but i have to admit i kind of like it… i think there’s a lot to be said about a new multicultural generation entering the closed off world of high fashion. “defaming” the bag makes just that point doesn’t it?

my first Birkin was a 35! but i prefer now B30 ????

The first time i saw it, i said NO ? but now i see the orange tote i think i just fell in love ?? o should never check this post now i have to buy it ??? BUT I would never use it in my daily life, i will keep this beauty for beach ?

Hi girls ?? i have not got a Hermes yet (it is my dream to be come true ? i hope??) ✨ i will definitely prefer B30

30. forever. and ever.

I don’t have a Birkin, but I would absolutely love to have a B30.It has become one of my dream bags.

This is a fun concept. The bag seems a little too delicate for me however. I would have to be extra careful not to come in contact with anything sharp. It looks like it might make a great travel pillow.
