Did I miss your K25 reveal? So your thumb twiddling paid off too!
Haha! You didn’t miss it. I took it then had second thought right after. TBH when I had it i wasn’t 100pc sold. To me there are four specs: color, leather, hardware and style/size. It met 3 out of the 4 but the last one it didn’t meet was one that (as I found out) I can’t xompromise on, and that’s leather. It was a BS K25 swift GHW. I agonized for a week about it and some of the fine TPFers have heard me going back and forth on this. Eventually I let it go - I held off doing a reveal cos it doesn’t seem right revealing something that doesn’t end up being yours, but I played around with it at home to see if I can live with the leather not being to my specs. Here are a couple of piccis! One is a comparison with my K32 GT Togo (also retourne) - it’s so cute and tiny, but I let it go and now my friend is the proud owner of it haha. At least it went to someone who’ll appreciate it more!

Edit to add: excuse the unmanicured toes on the 2nd pic. :doh:

It is very, very cute. So your SA gave you a pacifier too. Ha ha ha. We must be twiddling our thumbs and chanting "Are we there yet" at the correct rhythm.

I understand why you have reservation about Swift. My SA was worried about me not liking the Swift leather with the J28. That said, I am sure the current owner of this tiny K25 is very, very lucky.

And BTW, I love your twilly.

LOL! I do like the term pacifier :heart:. My friend's been pining for a K25 for a while, and she loves dark blue. she wasn't sure about the leather either, but since this is her first K she didn't have any preference on retourne vs sellier, and she absolutely loved the GHW. Of course she's also petite so the K25 looks a lot better on her than it is on me :lol:. I know a lot of people love swift but I can't do it on bigger leather pieces. one of my Jiges is swift and that's already testing my limit :panic:... I hope swift lovers don't hate me >.<

and thank you! the twilly is Brides de Gala (not brides de gala love). I've had it for a while (i think it's from 2-3 seasons ago), but I never thought abt pairing it with blue until someone on the forum mentioned that blue and orange are on the opposite side of the color wheels and, because of that, they go together. Who woulda thunk!

Why do you not like swift leather? Both Ks are gorgeous!!
 
Let me introduce to you, miss Elphaba!
All my B's have nicknames, and since this one is green, I thought of the wicked witch :biggrin::biggrin:
It's a B30 Verso with SHW in Vert vertigo. Gorgeous colour, I just can't resist when Hermes offers me POP colors :heart::heart:
here's a shot with her big sis feu.

Love the twilly. What is it called? What’s wrong with swift leather? I’ve never had/seen swift before so simply curious.
