I can only dream ❤ love both bags , would definitely get bright colors if they’re in the smaller sizes.

[@HelloGorgeousbyJenn]

Pretty!!

What is the color of each bag that you are showing? Thank you!

[@markmurillo3570]

Just inherited a new orange Hermes. I had no idea about the different sizes and your video was very helpful. It’s all wrapped up and I’m afraid to look at it, haha. I’m going to try to sell it on eBay using the authenticity guarantee but admit I’m not thrilled about the idea of someone poking around my bag then sending it off to the customer. Do you have any insight or suggestion based on what I’ve explained? I think it is a Kelly, not the smallest but the step up from that. I think it’s about 20 years old and has only been out of box a couple times.

What colours are both in? They're gorgeous!

[@fashionphile]

Our hero bags in this video are Etoupe (the Birkin) and Chai (the Kelly)!

[@stephaneelledge3642]

Both are beautiful. But I love the Birkin.

[@lifewithalana1608]

The Kelly. She is so beautiful ❤

[@azamat_bezhanov]

What type of fastening of handles is more sturdy birkin maybe kelly

[@fashionphile]

The handles on both bags are fairly similar but the handle on the Mini Kelly feels a bit more sturdier than others!

[@azamat_bezhanov]

@@fashionphile thank you

[@grosgoret1299]

The answer = anybag you might be offered 😂

[@davidglodoski2525]

correction! its not a bag....its a Birkin ❤
