I finally had some time to sit down and share my thoughts on this Birkin 25.

I spent quite a while deciding on the size, leather, and color because I wanted something that could work for everyday use while still feeling special. I ended up choosing this warm amber yellow tone in Togo leather with palladium hardware.

I worked with Li for this piece, and the overall process was smooth. I was quite particular about the color because I wanted a yellow that felt warm and easy to style, rather than something too bright.

First impression: the color is beautiful in natural light. The amber yellow has a soft warmth to it, and the Togo texture adds more depth, making the color feel more relaxed and timeless.

The leather is probably my favorite part. The natural grain gives the bag a beautiful texture, and I like that Togo keeps a nice balance between structure and softness. It feels practical enough for everyday carrying while still keeping the classic Birkin shape.

I also paid attention to the overall details — the stitching, edge finishing, hardware, and proportions. After looking through everything carefully, I’m happy with how balanced the final piece feels. The Birkin 25 size is also exactly what I was looking for: compact, but still practical for daily essentials.

The communication throughout the process was good, and I appreciated the updates, especially since I spent quite a bit of time deciding on the color.

Overall, I’m really happy with this Birkin 25. The combination of the amber yellow tone, Togo leather, and palladium hardware feels very natural and fits my everyday style well.

For Birkin 25 owners, do you prefer softer leathers like Togo for daily use, or do you enjoy the sharper look of more structured leathers?

Finally received my Birkin 25 in this warm amber yellow 💛
