If you want to carry size 35 you get a Birkin with Epsom leather, Epsom leather is very light in comparison to Togo or Clemence leather! great video btw 😊
Always 35 for me , I do have a couple of 30 but no 25 as I carry too much stuff , I usually put my Kelly in the Birkin so I can separate work stuff from personal stuff but it is so heavy 😂❤ . Size 40 is a great travel bag . Great advice Meredith ❤ I adore your 25 it’s beautiful xx
I am not on an hermes journey but I think the bags are gorgeous, I really like the sterling silver, if I could buy anything I would buy some of that. I have never even been in an hermes store.
THANK YOU for this comparison video. I’ve always thought I would want a 25 but a 30 is probably most wearable. I have a lot of mini bags that I wish were just a little bigger so with a purchase like this, I wouldn’t want to look back and wish I had a …. I bought my first mini Chanel 23 years ago and bought it because I didn’t want to spend so much money on a bag. My husband wanted me to get the small classic flap…..now I wish I would have followed his advice and done that. I love my mini but in hindsight should have bought the small. Listen to your gut! Love your videos. I get a lot of insight from them.
Such a great comparison Meredith. I agree that the 30 is the best size. You and I are also on the same page with the issues regarding the 25 and 35. Every once in awhile I put a 35 on my wish list and then pull it back off. It's amazing to me that there was a time when the 35 was the most purchased size. I like the Kelly in a much wider range of sizes.
@@livingluxwithmeredith People keep saying that and it hasn't happened yet. It does seem time for the pendulum to swing, but we can do so much on a phone or ipad that we don't need to carry a computer much anymore. I'm beginning to wonder if we are going to really see a swing to bigger bags used on a regular basis.
Hey there, Meredith! Loved watching this video and seeing what fits. Your pink Birkin 30 is so pretty and is definitely a Meredith handbag. Thanks for sharing.
3 gorgeous Birkins lovely Meredith. I don't think I will ever be lucky enough to own one but I have always thought if I did I would get the 30. It looks the perfect size and after watching this I can see that would be the best for me. Yours in pink is just fabulous. I have a couple of hot pink bags so I would gladly take one in this colour. I do love the rose gold hardware on the 35 though. Thank you for making this video. Much love. Jenni. XX 💓
The 30 in pink is beautiful, normaly i do not like Hermes that much but this one is stunning and the best size , thanks for sharing again pretty lady , the pink bag matches your cardigan , love this 💓💗💖💝💕💕
Love living vicariously via your collection. Now I can tell myself a 35, which is the size I would need, would be too heavy, is the perfect reasoning I can give myself for not having one LOL
Yep, I use my 35 as my work bag. It fits A4 documents and everything I need and I'm tall (5'11) and so looks proportionally OK on my frame. It's heavy but I'm good with that.
Nice video Meredith! That cardigan is everything, the color looks great on you. I also have a lot of pink and saturated colors in my wardrobe- would you mind sharing where did you buy that cardigan from? Have a great day 😘
The 30 really does seem like the sweet spot, but If they made the handles on the 25 bigger, it would be perfect! A neutral for me would be a purple/plum/burgundy or a bright electric blue.
Beautiful bags! ❤ Some day I would love to own a Birkin 35 and a Kelly 25. Plan on getting only 2 Hermès bags. Maybe when I turn 40 or something. Lol. I'm 32 right now. 😅
Great review and comparisons Meredith, thank you! So a question. If the handles of the 25 were the same as the 30 which would you choose? Still the 30? I don’t carry as much as you but I feel as though when I try on the 25 it looks a bit like a toy bag. It’s strange because It looks fine on me as I am quite petite at 5’2” and small framed, but I feel that way. I need to decide as my SA asked me for my B color and size wish and I don’t want to have regrets. Thank so much Meredith. I love the dark pinks as well!
Hey Meredith! Thanks for sharing very informative indeed I wonder if you can share some round figures for how much they cost now , it will be super helpful to plan ahead :))) Enjoy your life to the fullest
Not very helpful. Why not? First, when describing the dimensions of the 30, she says it's 25cm across (width). Erm, no! And second, she talks about a laptop, shows which bag hers will fit into, but she doesn't give the *size* of the laptop she is demonstrating does/does not fit. Laptops, even Apples, come in a range of sizes. I invested a lot of time (for me) watching her whole video but didn't learn what I wanted to learn, and didn't like the way she misspoke about the width of the 30. Sorry.
I’m a hobby TH-camr, I’m not infallible. I misspoke once and dare I forget to not tell you how big my laptop is, shock horror!!! You clearly understood which size I was referring to as you could point out I misspoke, and you could just ask me how big my laptop is. If you can do better, please go forward and start a channel and do all the hard work!

Thanks Jean. I love that you carry your Kelly in your Birkin! Xx
You look beautiful in that sweater!! Stunning.
Thank you so much 😊
Oh yay I’ve been waiting for this video!
Happy to help Chris!
I think the 40 is a normal size and then above that is HAC but i also could be wrong and you could be right!! Love your collection ❤
It certainly possible you are right and I am wrong!
I am not on an hermes journey but I think the bags are gorgeous, I really like the sterling silver, if I could buy anything I would buy some of that. I have never even been in an hermes store.
Not all roads lead to Hermes! You buy what suits you Jac!
my dream Birkin would be size 30.
It’s the best size!
I went preloved route immediately as I knew I wanted only B30 gold on gold which I got and I am very happy with my choice 😊
Congratulations!! That’s a fantastic choice!

I think we’ll see a swing back to the 35 at some point Jill.

Thank you for watching
That Barenia 24 is exquisite! May you wear them all in good health and happiness.
Thank you so much 😊
I thought that some inserts have the option to add a crossbody strap say for like the 25 😊
I’m sure they do.

Very interesting and informative, thanks for sharing. Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
💖💖💖 Your 35, just stunning!……
Thank you 😊
That color sweater is so beautiful on you! Could you link it please?
It’s from Frankie & Co.

If the handles on the 25 were longer I think I would prefer it. But given that’s not an option the 30 is definitely better.
Meredith,
I'll have to pass on this one. I utterly hate the closing flap on berkins.
It’s why most of us just leave them open. It’s not user friendly
Meredith,
Perfectly understood 👍
Hey Meredith! Thanks for sharing very informative indeed

I don’t actually have current pricing on all sizes. The Purse Forum keeps a thread with up to date pricing.
Whoa ! That pink lining is beautiful on the 35 ! May I ask what color name that is ? H has so many pinks I cannot keep track😅
That’s Rose Mexico
Good video 😊
Thank you 😊
Absolutely love your sweater! Where is it from?
Frankie & Co
Thank you for showing the iPad. I have to carry my iPad because it’s my office.
Thank you for watching
Love the comparisons but for me,it would be the 25❤😊
Happy to help!
@@livingluxwithmeredith thanks 😊!
I wonder why they don’t make the 25 handles slightly bigger? I know I want the 30 but it still makes me wonder.
Because they are Hermes! They have decided that is the perfect length for handles in that bag, and that is the end of the story.
@@livingluxwithmeredith 😂😂😂
what do you normally use on a daily basis to carry your laptop to work?
I don’t need to carry a laptop for work. I have a permanent office.
Hii what color is your 30? Love the pink 😍
It’s in the colour Framboise
Omg I never thought Framboise look so beautiful!! 😍😍😍😍
So I’m definitely chasing a Birkin 30 in Paris 🤡
Well it’s a good choice to re-sell it lol Make sure it’s in a neutral colour!
@ Dayle No way !!!! I can’t believe 😃I remember you said once you don’t like a bag that you feel a horse will come out of it 🤣🤣🤣
correction: the 30 does not have a depth of 25cm, it is 16cm
I’m fairly sure it’s the 35 that had the 25 depth
The only people that I know who carry the 40 are all men❤️
I can certainly see why men would carry that size better

The handles would do me in. I would need bigger or strap for cross body.🦆🦆🪿
They’re certainly not practical
Recently new follower and I just love your videos, so informative and interesting. I love your personality and your company. 🩷
Thank you so much!! So happy you’re here!
