So, I’ve been, like, obsessed lately. I’ve been creeping around online (don’t judge!), and I’ve seen SO many variations of this bag. It’s kinda mind-blowing, to be honest.
First up, there’s the Etoupe. Ugh, Etoupe is EVERYTHING. It’s this sophisticated grey with brownish undertones, and it just goes with, well, *everything*. I saw one described with palladium hardware – that’s the silver-y kind – and just imagine! Super chic, super everyday. And the Togo leather? It’s that grainy, durable stuff, so you don’t have to baby it too much, which is a HUGE plus. I mean, who has time to constantly worry about scratching their, like, ten-thousand-dollar bag? Not me, that’s for sure.
Then, there’s the Gris Tourterelle, which, honestly, I always have to Google how to spell. It’s another grey, but a softer, more delicate one, if that makes sense? Less “city chic” and more “Parisian countryside brunch.” You know? I saw one described as being in “Rubis” which, wait, hold on… *checks notes*… oh! It’s dark pink! Okay, so the description’s a bit wonky. But a dark pink Birkin? I mean, that’s a statement piece, right there.
And then, the Gold! Now, I saw this one described in, like, Portuguese or something, saying it was made in 2019 and in “Rouge de Coeur,” which is a vibrant red with pink and orange hints. See? Even the colors have like, *stories* behind them. Red Birkin? Yes, please! It’s bold, it’s sassy, it’s… well, it’s red. What more can I say?
Oh, and don’t even get me started on the Schwarz! Black. Classic black. You can’t go wrong with a black Birkin. It’s like, the LBD of handbags. I saw one described with “Rouge Vif Togo Leather” and “Palladium-Plated Hardware.” Rouge Vif is another red, I think? So maybe they mixed up the description there. See? Even the pros make mistakes! But black with silver hardware? *chef’s kiss*
