Fashion Indie: THE TEN: Reasons You Shouldn’t Own A Birkin Bag

  • Viviglam · 1 month ago
    I am not a fan of the Birkins either. I also "don't get it." And I ADORE designer authentic handbags. And yes I will pay through the nose for a GOOD one! But NOT insanity amounts like Birkin $$$$. I love BE&D handbags. The leather is ridiculously insanely gorgeous! The hardware is amazing! These guys started these bags in 2004. I love DIOR. Not ALL the DIOR handbags- as a lot of them just don't quite "do it" for me. However I just bought the DIOR Patent Leather le Trente le 30 handbag in black and it's GORGEOUS! Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder and we aren't all going to fall in love with the same handbags- hence the reason why there's a limitless variety of the darlings. I bought a RIPANI handbag (Italian) from TJ MAXX for 100 dollars. It's so beautiful and people stare at it and compliment me on it. I think it may have originally been anywhere from 200- 500 dollars not sure. I love Roberto Cavalli, BE&D, DIOR, CHANEL, VALENTINO, GUCCI, FENDI, TREESJE, Tylie Malibu, Francesco Biasia, Marc Jacobs, Mulberry....

    I will take any of those over a Birkin- (well maybe not, give me the Birkin and I'll return it and get the $$$ and put the money in savings or buy a few of the above!)

    They look like boxes and that thin leather strip across the top front? Ick.
