jag, if I'd not seen shopmom's gold birkin with GHW, I would have voted for PHW, which is the combo that I have. But eversince I saw shopmom's combo, I think that's perfection like black box with GHW.
 
Thank you ladies! My head is spinning after seeing Gold in Swift, and Grand Fonds Natural Chamonix! I just want everything! I think I am leaning towards gold hardware though. At least, today I am!:P

Jag, I feel I would love gold swift with white topstitch....did it resemble barenia to you??? Would it be a good barenia substitute as to the way it looks?
 
^^I'm beginning to like rouge H with gold too. Lately I've been thinking gold hw with every blinking thing, lol!

It's exactly what's happening to me. I just went through an 8 years where I thought everything palladium hw, and now I'm going back to gold.
I think that even if H bags are a classic, there's something in the air that makes us want to "play" with these small details, some kind of mood that's regarding what has generally been "in" lately.
But I also think that's just a thought, and as I said before, H bags are such a classic that whatever hw they come with, once we we love them and we will wear them a lot.
 
Thank you everyone for helping me with this! I really appreciate your thoughtful responses!

I am still leaning towards Gold with Gold Hardware, and as far as leather- there is something about luxwear's picture of Gold Swift that is making my head spin and my heart pound! And with swift, I can be flexible because both hardware is incredible! I need to learn more about swift- so anyone with a swift birkin please step up and tell me about how you like this leather!!!

But I am still torn about togo and clemence. Are they so similar that it doesn't matter which one I end up with?
 
Jag...you are talking to the queen of "taking a long time to make a decision"!!!

Trust me...I know how you feel.

Once you decide you will be at peace. If I have you pegged...you will be on to plotting your next bag!
 
I voted "other"...unless a SO...decision may be based on availability... I actually like this option...try on an available gold bag...evaluate "magic"...decide...done...next... : )

jag, Swift is orgasmic!! Go for it!

Hey, I'd love to see a swift something in gold....IRL....Birkin, Kelly, Bolide....all with white topstitch. I'm thinking it would be an excellet choice for a lady ( me) who loves barenia but who does not want the fuss of barenia, but, rather, the "look" of it...as close as she can get.

I totally agree with you Isus! BUt I am worried about how a birkin in swift will sag with time. :shrugs: But the color in swift is magnificent!
