Hello, I need help on this. I currently own a b30 in gold togo and a K32 in etoupe Chevre. I am currently looking at a K28 in togo or a B25 in swift, both rose pourpre. I like both of course but I can't decide since I already have a togo bag and there is $4,000 difference between the prices of each. Also not too sure if the small B25 handle will annoy me but I do have small wrists. Please give me some feedback.
please help me decide on swift or togo rose pourpre

What do you prefer, a hand held bag (Birkin) or do you prefer a bag that comes with shoulder strap (Kelly)? Swift is beautiful but will show signs of wear easier than Togo. To me, it sounds like you have a slight preference for the Swift B. I have no problem with the shorter handles, but that's me. That's something only you can decide. Go for the one that works for you and makes your heart sing. Best of luck with your decision

My vote is for the B25 in Swift.....nothing to compare for me....I have small wrists & B25 simply very
easy peasy, to Compare The Kelly 28..very different species...and I find it heavy, But you need to feel comfortable
& love whichever one you decide -----Good Luck!!!

I am leaning toward the B25 in swift but found one in Magnolia so now trying to find photos to compare to 2 colours together.
I assume that the attraction of this dilemma is that both bags are rose pourpre and that you really want to invest in a bag that colour. Would it be correct to assume that this is a distance purchase? I am a great believer that you should follow your instincts. Your concern over the size of the Birkin handles should be enough to prevent a purchase without having the items in your hand.
Yes, I am in Canada and it is not possible to view these bags. I am trying to compare to my B30 which I love but really want a smaller one. I also have a Celine nano luggage which has tiny handles, even smaller than B25. Very difficult to get my hand through but at least has a shoulder strap.
I’m a pink and purple lover but hate RP, I do love Magnolia
Have you seen Magnolia in person? RP seems to have brownish purple undertones except on YouTube under bright ring lights. I want a bright saturated pink but not fluorescent
Yes, the interior of my verso B is Magnolia, it’s a pretty and bright pink, not fluorescent. It’s hard to pinpoint what I don’t like about RP, it’s murky, your description of the undertones is probably accurate.
I love the B25 and I love swift. So it’s no contest. I have also rejected bags recently in Togo as I found they looked very dry. IMO color In swift leather is more lush, velvety, and gorgeous. JMO. I’m not petite, but I can wear the B25 over my forearm or hand carry. I also think the B25 will be a cuter pop of color. I have a number of K28, and they are heavier.
These are totally different bags.
Personally I'd take B25 swift all day long even though I find the K28 retourné one of the most useful bags. But, I have a lot of K28s. Only you can know what your collection "needs".
I also think that Rose Pourpre can look a bit muddy at times, will possibly look better in Swift, and Magnolia is a cleaner, brighter pink.

I have a K28 Togo RP and I use it quite a bit. Mine reads as a muted jewel tone, not as neon as magnolia (which I also have). It looks great with denim, navy, gray, black. In general I find the b25s look better with more summer-y clothes, sundresses, very streamlined silhouettes. I like the k28 with pants, denim, blazers etc.
I have a B25- and I have a large wrist and hand…I know peeps on here continue to state- to small handles for wrist carry- but I have the definition of large hands and wrist and I’m just fine! It doesn’t go all the way to my elbow, and I need to be gentle with the on and off- but if I need both hands, I can put the b25 on wrist for a time.
I ended up purchasing the Magnolia B25 in Swift after all, super excited about it! Thanks everyone for your input
Fabulous!!! Congratulations I am thrilled for you please post pix when you receive your new beauty!!
