Comparison Photos: Noir k25 ghw, kelly doll, micro birkin
Sorry for the obnoxious watermarks. I've had issues with resellers stealing my photos and using it as their own...
Both the doll and micro b are 15cm, but the doll is taller. Despite being able to fit more things, the doll is more difficult to get in and out of than the micro b. The sangles of the doll are its arms, so its not the standard thickness/shape of regular sangles. The doll's arms are thicker and rounded which makes it difficult to get in and out of. The touret is also tinyyyyyyyyy. Conversely, the sangles and touret of the micro b are just for show and don't actually open/close the bag.

I forgot to post a photo of the horseshoe stamp, so here it is. Seeing the HSS makes me so so happy!

I just realized that my three smallest bags are all swift! It's definitely one of my favorite leathers. Idk why people have reservations about getting a swift bag. It's not as delicate as they think. While both the doll and my k25 are made of swift, the doll feels like it has more cushion. If you look at the flaps (pictured below), the doll's flap looks many times thicker than my k25. When you touch it, the doll is plush like a pillow.

I wish the doll was compatible with straps. My strap for my k25 is too big to fit, but the strap for my micro b is perfect. Even then, the doll is lacking the additional hardware to secure a strap. If I were to dangle a strap using the loop that it has, I will surely damage the handle.
ALSO, the kelly doll doesn't come with the raincoat???? I thought it was standard for all b/k.
