Congrats BBC!! Lovely classic baby b andthe twillies you picked. How are you liking the size so far?
I really love this size. After years of alternating between B30 and B35, I realized that if I didn't carry my iPad, I really didn't need such a large bag - I don't need most of the cr^p I carry in the B35.
We went away for a few days and all I had was the 25. I managed just fine. Daily items were a Kelly Wallet (placed flat in the bottom of the bag, its fine, but back home I would use my small silkin instead), Bastia, iPhone, cough drops, keys, small Purell and a small pouch for lipstick and other small necessities. All this with the straps closed. I could easily have slipped in a mini-iPad as well, but I did not want to weigh it down.
I am so thrilled to finally have this size. It's very freeing. I don't see carrying my 35 much anymore except for when I travel with my DSs and even then, the boys are teen/tween so they carry most of their own things.
Always wanted Red b25. Its chic, its cute, its small... the 35 are like carrying a cow... but 25 are quite hard to come by though. This is my first 25, in red swift leather; bought in HK Jan 2017. (Lee Garden Store) Using the 30 sitting behind it to compare the size.
Is Rouge Vermillion? If so, we are twins except mine is Gold HW
Here she is with sister Colvy!
(Old pic - and yes I use the ribbon as it wraps better than the twillies...)

Great to hear that you are enjoying this size and you got the color that goes with everything as well! It really can carry more than it looks. While i dont carry alot of stuff but what i carry in the 30 (bearn, karo, phone, tissue, calvi, keys, mints, tissue) can fit into the 25 too.
My first black H bag! Very practical of me [emoji4] Actually, it's really nice not to have to worry about matching OR the the handles darkening!!!
I need another B25 in my life. Such a cutie!
This is such a beautiful bag, great accessories and lovely action pic [emoji7][emoji7][emoji7] Having 2 B25s I definitely support the idea of having another [emoji106]
May I know the measurement of the handle of b25? Thanks in advance.
OMG me too! I finally got one and now I want another!!! I know my next B should really be a 30 and yet I am so thrilled with this size. DS1 thinks it's too small for me to carry anything useful (and now he gets to carry my iPad in his backpack [emoji6]) but I love using such a small and light bag and having just the essentials! Plus Twilly-tying is super easy in this size (and they don't slide around like on my 35) so it always gets dressed up and looking perfect.
Thank you so much. I turned down a Craie K28 togo in ghw for this cutie. I'm patiently waiting for my SA's call. I hope to get another B25 soon.
Thank you. This is Blue Cobalt.
Totally agree with you. I had a B30 in RC, I like B25 better than B30. B25 is getting harder to get. Seems like everyone wants smaller bags nowadays. Thank you for your nice compliments.
Of course. We always need b25 if you have k25. It is different style.
