haha these were the same three i was debating over as well. I liked the speedy for its shape and the hobo as well but i ended up getting the gucci new britt tote and the speedy. I didn't get the neverfull because the straps looked flimsy and thin... even moreso than the new britt tote and I tend to carry a lot in my bags. i've never bought a black canvas gucci so i can't say though.

finally! someone who can relate to me!

well i just posted this in the lv forum:

OMG! i just picked up my gucci. and i am soooo not impressed with the quality of the canvas of this bag. on the same bag but in brown or cream trim-the canvas is a heck of a lot better. so-i got the brown and the black and am deciding at home which one to keep. sux bc i wanted it in black so bad, but i dont want to feel like i paid for something that is crappy :( the brown one is sooo nice tho :)

walked into the lv store a bit depressed bc of the gucci thing. going into that store is a bit overwhelming too. the neverfull just does not impress me and the batignolles either size just feels way too big. i still like the quality of the speedy, but the handheld just kills that bag for me. plus i want a black bag. ugh! i may be too picky :P

so-which new britt medium hobo color did you end up with? also-do you have a black bag? if not-what are you using that goes with everything?

pls reply....i am so anxious to know :)
