That's a very good looking mixte! And you shoot really good pictures.
Single pivot brakes require more hand pressure than other types, so pay attention to whether your wife is happy with them. Dual pivots are easy to install and are easier to actuate.
I see there is a lot of clearance around the wheels, so if she rides in the wet, she might like it if the bike had fenders.
