I think the exotic series refurbished in black and red looks great with the gorgeous collection. They compliment each other. The red and black are so much bolder in the exotic refinished, it helps calm down the carpet from the gorgeous set which is very busy and can take over the whole room.
If you're comfortable to TT in one town there should be no reason not to do it with your main(1st) town. If you move gradually and talk to your favorite villagers as you go, there are no negatives about TT. I have several towns and totally enjoy keeping them in different seasons so I can collect...
Apple told me that Roscoe is carrying around a shovel and she's very suspicious of what he might being going to do with that shove and that she's was going to be keeping an eye on him. Pretty cute that the little pink hamster will be spying on the big black horse :)
