Your travel vlogs are so beautiful. I told my husband that I have learned more about the streets of London because of your travel vlogs. I told him that they are waaay different from what I pictured. Thank you. It helps prep me for future travel. Also, seeing how they decorate for the holidays made an impression on us.❤❤❤❤
Honestly, that makes me so so happy😍 Knowing my London vlogs inspired you and helped you prepare and get excited for future travels is all I could ask for :) London during the holiday season is extra special of course, but the city has so much to offer year round!
I love umbrellas. When I was 4 I was scared of them then my maternal grandmother got me a clear one with purple trim for kindergarten. I love them. Finding a unique one is a treat.☂️
Aww, I used to want one of those clear umbrellas as a kid so bad! Glad to hear your fear turned into an appreciation of umbrellas😁 Love a unique umbrella :)
The lilac jumper with the bag looked great - hope you can get the equivalent. The black blazer was stunning, the buttons were so unusual. OMG, those stairs down to the tunnel - I'd have clung to the side like a limpet - you're very brave! I would love to live overlooking a river - Hamburg has beautiful buildings - very interesting architecture too - enjoyed your vlog, a lovely mixture 😍🙋♀
I’ve never considered lilac as a color in items of clothing but I loved it! Hope to find a similar sweater at some point :) Hamburg really is beautiful! The “older” I get, the more I learn to appreciate that I get to call this city my home :) Thank you as always for watching and for taking the time to comment!
The scenery of Hamburg you vlog is so cool, Lesley. I love looking at the architecture as well. Did you end up taking the Birkin to your parents’ house for your father’s birthday? It can be difficult carrying a handbag that you’ve been wanting for various reasons. I have a handbag that I got for Christmas last year (?) but it’s so heavy and it got color transfer on it. I was able to clean it and it is back to looking great, but I worry it might happen again. And the weight of it gives me pause. I’m going to make an effort to wear it this fall, fingers crossed, lol. Thanks for sharing and please give an update on the fragrance you made.
I did end up carrying it and as stupid as that might sound, I’m so glad I did :) I think I have to come to term with the fact that, as of right now, she is not an easy grab and no brainer. Maybe I will get there some day. You and I both with our respective bags :) Glad you were able to get the color transfer off yours. Plus, chances are you will manage to get it off again. Maybe that knowledge helps making it easier for you to carry it? Hamburg is so photogenic :) The “older” I get, the more I realize how fortunate I am to be calling Hamburg home⚓️
Good point. The 35 certainly is on the larger side. That being said, I did try on the 30 in the boutique and I didn’t really love how the size looked on me. That was in 2020 when I placed my wish, though. Maybe I should give it another thought :)
Love your content more and more. It is maybe the vlog type of styling that has a catch for me. I'd say wear your birkin more and you will fall in love with it more and more. It is gorgeous btw. Can't wait for mine to arrive. Dont even know when that is to happen, tho 🙈.
Is it true that before placing a wish at Hermes in Germany you have to wait until the list is open? I tired to contact the customer service to place mine as well but they never replied me back 😢 From what I can read online, they said that if you have the chance to place a wish, 99% it will fulfilled in Germany maybe that the reason you got your bag? I don’t know really 🙈 I am so new to all of this
Alright, so I am no expert so take this with a grain of salt but: When I placed my wish, I just went into the boutique and asked them to put me in the list for a Birkin, I got to try on the different sizes and then told them my dream specifications. That was in mid 2020 through so things may very well have changed since then. There was no mention of lists being open for a limited window of time. That is definitely the case with special orders. When it comes to “regular” Birkins and Kellys, I always thought you could ask to be put on a list anytime. But again, no expert here😅 I think, placing a wish over the phone or email with customer service is probably something Hermès is reluctant to do. So if you have the chance, I’d say go inside a boutique and inquire in person. As for all wishes being fulfilled…that may have been the case in Germany. But with increasing demand and limited production, I don’t think that is a thing anymore. I just recently talked to someone who after 1.5 years of waiting got an email from Hermès that they are unable to offer her a bag. Hope this helps provide some insight. Again, just my personal opinion and perception. I may very well be wrong on some of that🙈
It’s too big. The size is the problem. B30 is the best. Hate to say this but B35 and B40 is not in demand so they need to look for buyers and people are so grateful they forgotten that it’s probably not the right size
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I had requested/asked to be put on the list for a B35 so I can’t fault my boutique for offering me a 35. I feel the 30 looks weird on me because I am fairly tall. Looks like a strange in-between size. Maybe it’s just in my head😅

Thank you❤️ I am determined to make the B35 work for me :)

I think the birkin 35 is a huge bag meant more as a travel o work bag.a Birkin 25 and 30 and the best for every day casual bags.

Thank you so much Sopho😊 That means a lot! Fingers crossed on your Birkin arriving sooner rather than later :)
