This is probably the first proper Birkin review I’ve watched from the beginning to the end 😆 I always enjoy your bag reviews because they are so versatile!
We all go thru seasons of wearing a bag less or more for extended periods of time and I think that’s completely normal. In fact, re-discovering your own bags and wearing them again makes it feel new again! Don’t feel bad you’ve only worn it a few times in the last year ❤️
Yes, Sharon! I agree it’s better to give any bag a good chance before sending it on its way. (I do end up hoarding a little bit I’m working on that😆.) Thanks for watching 💕💕💕
So detailed Dani. The color looks so good with your complexion. I never realized that in order to buy a $15k bag you had to spend $15k in goods. Sheesh. I would so go the resale route like you did!
Aw thank you, Julie! Yeah it’s ridiculous. And that’s usually a minimum. I some places like LA where competition is really high or Canada/ Australia where stock is really low, some have pre-spent closer to 3x to get their bag🤮
Thank you for your thorough and honest video! I think the quota bags are definitely on a pedestal and because of that, it’s easy to overlook the cons of the bags. Loved hearing your thoughts!
Glad you enjoyed it😊 I think if one is a handbag lover, we may not be help but be curious about these “pedestal” bags. Well, I’m glad I got it now to satisfy my curiosity.. I can sleep at night😅😅😅 thanks so much for watching ❤️❤️
I agree a 100% - as much as I love mine, it’s not very user friendly bag, but, like you said, the heart wants what it wants! She’s an icon ❤️🔥 No regrets 😅
Hi Dani, great to see you back, seemed you had fun in Japan. 😊 i do not own a birkin or any hermes bag, and never will lol i think, but i enjoyed watching this. I like watching and listening to reviews and opinions of people about luxury bags. Its fascinating! Your birkin bag is 🔥❤
Yes, Japan was great fun. Thank you, Aisa! I’m glad you enjoyed the video anyway. Yeah, if you are not charmed by Hermes, i think that’s a better place to be❤️❤️
Great feedback! You’ll use it a lot more when you get over the price. For 30 years, I’ve never put tubes of cream or drinks inside my bags, unless pouched. Of 52 luxury bags, none have stained or dirty insides. You’ll go through phases, but that color will always be fabulous! Thanks for yr video
Oh thank you so much for sharing your perspective and your experience. I am a little bit more comfortable carrying my Birkin around now. Thank you so much watching.❤️❤️❤️
Hi Dani! Your video is the very best that I've seen to date regarding the Birkin 25. Finally a True evaluation (unemotional) of the practicality of the bag ! Thanks so much.❤
I love my 30!! I use it and don't baby it. I did get it in the dark neutral Ebene so its more under the radar than a bright color. Though it is expensive it never changes and will last as long as YOU last. Never heard of the contract issue but I'm in the States. Nice video!
Sounds like a beautiful colour. Maybe one day when I can get a second birkin, I will feel less precious about her 😅😊 thanks so much for watching and sharing your perspective, Priscilla💖💕💕
Great review. You are so right, it is very stressful whether buying Hermes quota bag from store or reseller. Great point about color transfer from twilly. Thank you so much for sharing darling💕
Glad to hear your thoughts on the B25! Though I never quite understood how ppl get on w those tiny handles lol. It’s really cute though! I honestly think a B20 will be too small.
Thanks for your in depth review of your Birkin 25! I’m on the same boat as you, only wore my Birkins and Kelly a handful of times this past year… We all go through bag phases i think, perhaps we will use them more in 2024 😅 TYFS ❤ Kiki
I don't know why but I was not receiving notification of your posting...all this time. I hope you are well Dani? Beautiful Birkin, the color 🥰🥰🥰!! And great detailed review, tfs.
Hopefully yes Dani. My summer was extremely busy and my winter will be busy as well due to work from Oct.-April. I plan to slow down my work schedule so I can have more me time, I am so overwhelmed. Thanks for asking and have a great day.
I’m tempted to get the 30 just for variety in my wardrobe. Most of my current bag collection are small to medium sized bags (lady diors, Chanel flaps and LV speedy). My roomiest is probably my speedy 25. Plus I want a Kelly in the 25. I currently don’t carry a lot also. I’m not sure if aiming for variety will affect me later where I don’t end up using the 30 as much since I’m more used to the smaller to medium sizes. I am also 5’4 so those sizes suit me well. But then again, what if there are days where I want to carry more and the be super grateful I have the 30 as an option lol. It’s so much to decide!
Yes, our dilemmas! 😆 whenever I’m not sure, I get a “trial bag”. One that is very similar in function and see if I would use it before I commit to the real thing. Cos it would be a shame to have the birkin 30 just sit on the shelf, unless you are like me and don’t mind owning bags for “collecting” purposes ❤️❤️😊
Great review Dani 👌🏻 And I love the bag❤️ Although I’m not sure I ever want to purchase one for myself. The Hermes game is just not for me🙈 That closure looks a little complicated, but I like the stability elegance and simplicity! But hey! Never say never right 😁 Watch me trying to get one lol
Hi dani. Love your review. Just wondering do u get you birkin authenticated after buying? Maybe i shld rephrase.. shld one authenticate the bag after buying from reseller?
Personally I don't like the Birkin precisely because of the closure 😢 Love the design of the bag but the trouble of closing it made me realise I don't want a Birkin in spite of all that she may represent for everyone else 🤷🏼♀️ Thanks for the review, we agree in several points 😁 Still a beautiful bag 😅
Yes, the opening is awkward indeed. And it’s really the only bag I put up with this level of torture for😆 I’m hopeless😅😅 thanks for watching, Linda. Have a great weekend ❤️❤️
@@DaniOchannelThank you, it's 10:35 AM in the UK so your weekend must be almost over right? 🙄 I just think the Birkin it's too complicated to open and close in our stressful routine, nowadays we need less fuss for that price 🙈😂😂😂
Well look at you roasting a Birkin! No just kidding of course, but I love your honesty. It’s not a bag for me. I love it, but at that price I’d worry about it all the time. I get the sentiment though. Perhaps you’ll end up using it later, otherwise you can just sell it. If you can wait for the right moment, you will probably even make a profit.
I resent anything that says "You have to"....I don't have to do anything...This yes you can have this BUT...Not good Marketing Scheme. Let the Customer buy without Pre-Buying...My gawd what greed that is to me✌🏻👨🏻
Great review. Birkins are overrated. Most people would not be after them if they weren’t status bags. They’re annoying because they’re only top handle and they’re not secure and they look fussy. 25 is a terrible size because you can’t get it up your arm so you have to hand carry. It looks also ridiculous on some women who think because of popularity they have to go with 25. That size doesn’t work for everyone! The best sizes are 30-35. Kelly also is such an impractical bag. No security whatsoever. Mini kelly is even less practical because you can’t fit a phone. And Epsom is a terrible wearing leather.
Lotsa truth in that. Luckily I can get my arm through the handles of the b25. But the b30 and bigger, I feel like Hermes deliberately made them to torture people who carry them😅 I much prefer my Kelly but I have a 32 in retourne. So she is not bag as an every day. Not that I use her everyday 😊 Thanks for watching. ❤️❤️
Supply and demand, Hermes know that only stupid people with too much money would pay extortionate amounts of money to out do their friends ... great gimmick 😊
I agree Dani when u said if u put it down others will be much interested in taking the bag vs the contents hehe. Great review learned a lot. Never knew when u get offered there is like a bInding contract. Also i feel the same way with my more expensive bags i carry them less vs my preloved and much more affordable bags. Right now i cant see myself yet with any Birking bag but who knows in 3-5 years i may have even at least one. Ty for sharing 🫶🏼💖 27:22
Yes I think the contract is 5 years and that’s why there are a lot of bags on the resale market about this age cos the buyer is no longer bound. Just my guess😅 If you really want, I believe it will happen for you, my friend❤️ Thanks so much for watching, Ron💕💕

@@sarahmartin-h7x aw thank you, Sarah! I’m glad you found it helpful. I make emotional decisions, not perfect. I just own them🤣🤣
@@DaniOchannel Yes, that's what I meant.😂
Color is a game changer. Even if that is a B25 in that salmon color, I wouldn’t buy it and rather buy a B30 in neutral color with rose gold hardware.
Fair enough. I’m not neutral colour bag person at all😅 I think that’s cos I wear lotsa black. Thanks for watching.
Neutrals are boring. See we’re all different.
@@katemiller7874 ❤️

Thank you so much, Irene❤️❤️ yah, it’s all very stressful. Why do we do this to ourselves??😅😅 oh yeah, love is blind😆
I‘m quite sure I would feel very similar, if I owned a Birkin bag 🙈 - but it definitely will be a forever bag in your collection ❤️
I think I kinda knew I would feel this way but curiosity killed the cat😆😆 but at least the FOMO has settled😅😅
Glad to hear your thoughts on the B25! Though I never quite understood how ppl get on w those tiny handles lol. It’s really cute though! I honestly think a B20 will be too small.
Yeah B20 is a flex 💪 😎 😆😆😆 (flex just our fingers through the handles cos our hands won't get through)
@@DaniOchannel LOL indeed 😂🤭
Such a beautiful bag, Dani! I love your detailed reviews - you are so thorough❤❤❤❤
Aw thank you, Aaryn. Glad you enjoyed the video ❤️❤️ thanks for watching 💕
That was so thorough and helpful. I also didn’t like the 30 size. It was too big to be handheld. I still lust for a 25. 😂 Maybe someday!!❤❤❤
You’ll get one, I’m confident of that, Kim! The hunt is half the fun. So enjoy the “journey”. 😆😆😆
You are so naturally humorous, subscribing!
@@helenscho4769 aw thank you, Helen. Warmest welcome to my channel❤️❤️😊
Great video Dani. No company will ever tell me what to sell after I purchase it. Wow that’s ballsy and people listen lol. Crazy to me.
Thank you, Kate! I agree that it’s very off putting to be bossed around by a company that just profited off you. Thanks so much for watching ❤️❤️
This is very informative and I agree that I love the structure of this. The handle is nice if you like to carry it as handheld. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Madam! Yes it’s definitely a good choice for one who likes handheld bags. Thank you so much for watching.❤️❤️❤️
I like the way the Birkin looks better open. The color is just beautiful. ❤️💕
Thank you, Delene❤️❤️ thanks for watching 💕💕

You too, Kiki?? Yes I’m trying to use them more too😅 my daughter is getting bigger and easier to look after, so I don’t always need to be around 😊

Hi dani. Love your review. Just wondering do u get you birkin authenticated after buying? Maybe i shld rephrase.. shld one authenticate the bag after buying from reseller?
I think authentication after buying a luxury bag is a must. I’m planning to take this back to Hermes for a spa at some stage😊

Lol!! I did roast it right? I was trying not to😂😂😂 cos I might get back lash 😅
Yes I did justify the purchase in many ways😅😅
@@DaniOchannel I think any objective review of a Birkin is going to be a roast to some people. 🙊
Thanks! Wonderful Channel 🦋
