We can dream, can't we?<br /><br />Most of the fakes out there aren't very convincing or even very cheap. Besides, even if I could fool my friends, my coworkers, and even my hairdresser, I'd know I was carrying a fake. <br /><br />Great post - can't wait to read your follow-up!Merry Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856408467466440033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4691615549993586603.post-73079656300817148042012-01-27T22:08:51.323-04:002012-01-27T22:08:51.323-04:00Great article Miss Janice.

I would never actually be able to buy one, but I don't think I would buy a fake either. I can only hope that I may one day inherit one from someone who appreciates that I have more taste than money!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08415957157604314454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4691615549993586603.post-73045187048575726442012-01-27T19:36:45.851-04:002012-01-27T19:36:45.851-04:00Janice, the orange is a fabulous color - I think y...Janice, the orange is a fabulous color - I think you need one! <br /><br />I don't think I'd bother to get a fake Birkin.

A few years ago I too set my sights on a Birkin. I thought....hey I'll just go on ebay. I can find everything on ebay cheaper. I get on line and see something that says Birkin for a price of only 25.00 I get excited. Then I realize it's the catalog. Used and ten years old. I love my Chanel. I'll stick with it for now. My everyday bag is a Tori. I am still in the mode of mom trying to look stylish while hauling around sippy cups, bibs, and wipes. But, one day I am going to have a Birkin. I'll be 80. But, who cares. I'll at least have one. And if my kids are not nice to me in my old age I'll take it with me to my grave. LOLrsvpshindighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06210871478984792817noreply@blogger.com
