Lol, funny post! Congrats on seeing your first Birkin in the flesh!

I have seen man carrying birkins but usually are the larger one that may look like a briefcase kind of thing and not in orange. That boy was definetly looking for attention... Just like me!!

I seem to do my H run ins at the grocery store for some reason. The last birkin I saw was a black one a few weeks ago on an older woman, at one grocery store I go to a lot, there are plenty posh bags in the aisles. The most striking birkin I've seen though was a yellow colored one that I'm guessing was the color gold, that was last winter or spring though at the other supermarket I go to, in the parking lot.

Gosh, it sort of takes away the allure of the Hermes!!!LOL I have yet to see one in real life. I went to the Hermes store in Stuttgart, but they really only had accessories.

^^ ha...

I saw my first Hermes at an outlet mall. Some Mexican lady in her late 50's.

I was like

when I had my first Hermes sighting, it was at the cheesecake factory. The lady was sitting on the patio and the sun was shining above the purse, like literally, like a halo. Hahahha, the whole thing is ridiculous, not that I think about it.

I see TONS of them rolling through the city. Wish I knew how to authenticate by sight so I could know which ones were fake.

I saw a Hermes the other day at a recycle shop, I think it was a Birkin. It was orange. They also had tons of Hermes canvas totes. I'm still not in love with them.....

^^I saw the bag again today and it's a Kelly.....

I think men carrying handbags is weird. Sorry. It's not a gay/straight thing for me, it's just something I can't get into. To each his own

I think some guys look great with Hermes, especially birkin 40 cm and the HACs in 40 cm+
