For my first desginer purse

, should I get an LV or a Gucci? Idk what to choose if I can only choose one!

speyta · Oct 26th, 2009, 11:05 PM

I'm biased toward LV -- so there's my answer :P. Which LV bag(s) were you considering?

LV fore sure. Gucci bags look fussy to me.

bagladie112 · Oct 26th, 2009, 11:13 PM

i'd say lv! the gucci bug just has'nt bit me...

justmyemail · Oct 26th, 2009, 11:22 PM

I was thinking like the speedy 30 or something classic because I can only have one...

im leaning towards LV. can we see which two you are deciding between?

flashy.stems · Oct 26th, 2009, 11:35 PM

i'd go with LV, depending on your choices. the speedy 30 is nice, but take note that you will be in and amongst 5000-1 fakes of the same bag. are you thinking mono or damier?

beljwl · Oct 26th, 2009, 11:59 PM

LV FOR SURE!!!Wait until the Gucci is on sale. they have sales twice a year

LV

aliysiah · Oct 27th, 2009, 01:12 AM

I like a few Gucci bags, but I personally rather go for LV, too. They seem to wear better with age and last a lifetime (at least the mono bags). The mono Gucci bags are pretty, but I'm not sure how well they hold up in the long run.

ladakini · Oct 27th, 2009, 07:55 AM

I prefer LV, personally. They are lighter to carry than the Gucci bags I have tried on. I love the Speedy.

Is there a particular Gucci style you are considering?

Northergirl · Oct 27th, 2009, 08:03 AM

I'm the odd one out. I personally (I own 3) would go for a Gucci as everyone owns an LV.

gucci fan · Oct 27th, 2009, 07:53 PM

For me it depends on the style of the 2 bags you are considering.

fashion_mom1 · Oct 27th, 2009, 08:02 PM

I am and LV girl all the way. I will see Guccis that I think are cute. However when i try them on in the stores I dont like them. My LV speedy was the first high end designer bag I ever bought. I loved it. I just sold it on ebay actually so that someone else could love it too
