    Looking fabulous Lisa and great comparison too. I’m not a birkin lover. I’m into my LV bags but I enjoyed watching this. Thank you for doing it. Take care 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

    Its quite nice with the verso interior. Thats cool. I dont like the holes for the shoulder strap. I also dont like the D rings on the back(in other wirkin models)... I wish there was a different solution to attach the shoulder strap

    • @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle
      @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle  5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I’m not a huge fan of the grommets but I like them better than the d rings in the back

    • @marenhumblebee2736
      @marenhumblebee2736 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle hmmm yeah ... one might think so, but they are unnatural. maybe a D-Ring attached to the top of the insides where the holes or grommets are now... that might be least offensive, but I want them somewhere centered or maybe two next to each other equally off center, so as to not interfere with the holes for the sangles... ideally I would envision some leather loop which uses the holes for the sangles somehow and then has the strap attached to it...

    • @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle
      @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @marenhumblebee2736 they actually make those from 3rd party sellers to use on your Birkin but I would never take that risk of damaging my sangles

    Interesting. I don’t think I heard you say, but do you think the weight was similar?

    • @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle
      @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Ugh! I should have weighed them. From memory (as I’ve already returned the Tirkin) they seemed similar

    @Feedingmycuriosity 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The wirkin, the tirkin is cheap and yes feels cheap, but at the end of the day the Birkin is a tote bag , a utility bag meant to replace a straw wicker basket. It was meant to be used. The women who are buying the cheap version mostly buy it with that purpose, since getting the original seems to be a privilege for few

      I got my Wirken 1/9/25. Probably one of the last ones sold on Walmarts website. It is really cheap looking. IMO it look like a $30 bag that I paid $90. It’s not great and no one will mistake it for a luxury handbag.

      ​@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle do you really think the bag you had looked that cheap? Even in the 35 version you were going to order to add fringe?

  • @miradonfbd

    You could buy a quality Birkin lookalike made from quality materials, even exotics, at a reasonable price. Depending on materials and hand or machine stitched.

    • @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle
      @luxuryandlifeinthemiddle  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I’m sure it’s like jewelry. You could have your local jeweler make a bracelet similar to a Cartier one for a fraction of the price.

    Nope I can spot these a mile away. Just not something I’d ever buy. I’d rather buy a good Italian leather bag that doesn’t look like another brand. That’s just my opinion personally.
