i have quite a few speedys, but i never use them :(

doreenjoy · Nov 5th, 2009, 05:42 PM

I have zero. I think the shape looks a little old-fashioned on me.

Roxana · Nov 5th, 2009, 05:48 PM

I have 4 of that style.
2 LV speedies, 1 Gucci boston and one red leather patent brandless doctor style bag. I really love these styles, I think it is really feminine and it holds so much!

^^ I also think these style handbags can really make an outfit very classy. I love doctor bags. Thank you so much for responding to my post everyone.

Same here. I can't do handheld.

Thanks for posting your pictures dmitchell15! I like the look of the MM and the Burberry is one I've thought of for myself. You do need to top your collection off with an LV Speedy...Lots of different ones to chose from. Good luck.

I had a british tan Coach doctor's bag and a Calvin Klein beige coated canvas and deep brown leather trimmed doctor's bag. The Coach eventually went to my mother once I bought the LV Speedy 35.

Honestly wanted to love the Calvin Klein, I kept it for a very long time. It was really quite perfect in terms of looks and size but the texture of the coated canvas kept sending my nerves jangling every time I touched it, I was too sensitive to the texture they produced (sort of like nails on chalkboard).

The one great thing about the Coach doctor bag was that it came with a shoulder strap. That is the one major thing I miss about it -- it's not on the LV!!

I have a LV speedy. The damier one. I need to get the monogrammed one.

Thank you for the lovely comments. I like the MM because it is unique. Lately, I really love unique handbags, especially vintage. This way no one else will have it quite like you. You should definitely get the Burberry one. It is awesome! The only thing you do have to be careful about is the denim transfer. I haven't really had a problem,but others have.

I have lots - but I'm certainly not going to spend the evening counting them. I think the Boston/speedy/Drs bag is one of my favourite shapes.

rainrowan · Nov 6th, 2009, 06:11 PM

^that is so pretty!

Designer_Love · Nov 6th, 2009, 07:03 PM

I have one LV speedy (and want lots more) and the next bag i'm saving up for is a gucci boston bag which looks a lot like the speedy.

Almost 2 years ago, I bought a gorgeous Brics doctor-style bag. Brics decided to do a limited edition of copies of its 1952 originals, as the company was founded then. They were all done in Tuscan leather. I bought mine in black Tuscan leather while in Paris, since I couldn't get it here in L.A. at the Brics boutique.

I have 4 LV speedies.

lurkingsmirk · Nov 6th, 2009, 08:58 PM

I love your bags! I'm finishing up medical school and I've been searching for a cute doctor bag style for a while (that I can actually afford). I need something I can put over my shoulder, though.
