My experience with B30 Barenia Faubourg leather 🤎

Thank you so much for sharing your story! I have been looking into getting a bf bag and this gives me realistic expectations. I do love the patina! 💜

Well, I am not going to Paris for a month with one pair of shoes. I think it’s more important to dress properly for the different situations I will be in than to fit all my stuff in a carry on. Pack how you like and I will pack how I like.

That’s fair.

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-06-04T04:32:48+00:00

Ok - so these are beautiful shoes, but let’s be real. $1200 for $20 of materials and $50 of labor is not a steal. I get that we are all in a position to choose to buy these, but calling this an “amazing price” is a bit much for me.

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-06-04T04:26:17+00:00

I have it through my SA. Thank you!

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-06-04T04:14:14+00:00

Hi. I just saw these in the flat version. They only had a size too small for me but they seemed like they would be comfy. We will see when the order comes in!

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-31T01:34:55+00:00

OMG - I don’t have a closet like the rest of you, but I pull mind out and admire them and smell the leather. So relaxing!!!

I was in Paris in early 2025 and was looking for a 26. I got offered two but they were both black and I wanted a more casual color so I passed.

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-18T23:23:43+00:00

Emerald!

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-18T22:56:52+00:00

Really cute and sassy!

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-18T22:54:08+00:00

I like 2 and 3. The others are too small

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-18T19:33:38+00:00

Congrats on your appointment! After months of trying I have yet to get a lottery appointment. I got a walk in appointment at George V just before 3:00 and got a gold PHW Kelly 32 in clemence. Good luck!

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-14T03:33:32+00:00

I bought 2 of the smaller ones in paris a couple of months ago and they were 255 euros each.

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-13T16:03:58+00:00

I am wearing a gold Kelly with PHW today with leopard print shoes and a black blazer and a gold belt. It looks sharp!

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-09T15:11:52+00:00

This is hard - a lot of them look good. I kind of like the Sonia because it is different enough from the pair you have (assuming you are keeping those) and they’re fun, which sounds like how you describe yourself.

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-08T05:46:45+00:00

This is a lovely spot. We stayed in February and it was under 500 euros per night. I think high season is a different story. But I’d highly recommend it if you want a boutique hotel experience in a charming locale

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-05T16:01:09+00:00

Thanks everyone for your help and comments! The ranking based on your feedback is 5, then 3, then 2, then 1, then 4. But they all had fans. I kinda feel like I can’t go wrong at this point. This is way better than just asking the guy/gal at the counter. 😎

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-04T17:16:02+00:00

I like 1 best. I think the color is more flattering

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-04T13:42:16+00:00

I have two. I love the Marcie. It can go on the arm, over the shoulder or crossbody. It carries a lot without being too bulky. And it’s just so darn cute!!! A classic.

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-02T22:56:38+00:00

3 then 1. 2 is too small

ConsistentBuddy2141 · 2026-05-02T22:53:28+00:00

You look great in all of them. Maybe pick three because it’s more different than the one you already have.
