I have the Speedy 25 and I like it. I was looking at the Joy but haven't bought it yet. I held it and modeled in the store and it was nice. When I first saw it online it looked too dark to me. But in person it's pretty.

Tough choice but I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

Wow tough question... I have a mono speedy 30 and a joy boston in beige/ebony with gunmetal leather trim and I equally love them both. The size are about the same so the speedy 25 should be smaller than the med boston. Isn't the dune color in the mini lin collection? and that speedy size is only speedy 30? Did you mean speedy 25 in Damier?

I think the Gucci is much more unique. You see the speedy everywhere, and I love the gunmetal trim!

Well, you are in the Gucci forum. But I am also an LV fan. I would say to go for the Gucci bag. The Speedy will always be available.

I love LV too, but I think the gucci would be more unique.

Not just three Melanies, but three Melanies who also love to shop! We must be kindred spirits!

thanks for your replies!! i haven't made any purchases yet... but i'm going down to vegas in 2 weeks and will most definitely pick up the joy boston bag... AND... the pelham, which i just fell in love with

any size suggestions for the pelham? i kinda like the dimensions of the medium but hope its not too large for my 5'4" frame..

I had the same dilemma too. If you're going to the store, definitely try on both sizes to see which you like better.
