Ermmmm....true confession time! I bought a pre-loved Birkin myself just before Christmas....similar colour to Lidl's but mine is a 'Shooting Star' one and I love it. I wouldn't dream of buying new for stupid money and it took me 2 years of watching and waiting to find mine at a very, very good price. Have hated seeing L's bag slagged off for being slouchy and worn....I love the lived in look and like the thought of a bag with a history and would feel a right plonker carting a pristine Hermes bag around. Please don't hate me....!I’m so sorry my lovely tattlers but I bloody love that bag It’s not the bags fault is has to reside with such a toxic person. Poor bag
