Default HELP!! Is it stupid to get monogram speedy 35 If I already have size 30?

Hi All-

I need help! I bought my monogram canvas speedy 30 last summer and the patina is all dark and really used to death. I love this bag-I basically use it everyday. Do you all think it is stupid to get the same exact bag only bigger? I tried in on in stores last week and insisted it was too big for me but I keep dreaming of it!!! What should I do?? Please help. I also saw the Manhattan PM bag, or the Beverly MM, and that caught my eyes too!!!

You should try to get a Watercolor 35!!

If you keep dreaming of the bag, you should def get it! Now that I have my WC 35, I dunno how I survived without this size! I love big bags!

Not stupid at all. The 35 size is completely different. It's a great size. But if you're wanting something different, the Manhattan PM is fabulous, too. So many choices!! Good luck with your decision!!!

I appreciate your confusion. I had the Mono 30 and actually returned it for the Damier 30. I love it. No vachetta. But then my heart kept going back and seriously wishing for the 35....I really liked that bag.....A LOT......so I ended up getting that one as well.
Maybe you could consider both of those? Or you could go for broke since summer's coming up and get the Damier Azur 30 (got that one too, actually and I love her too.....)

Let us know what you decide!

It's NOT stupid!! IMO, different size=totally different bag!!!
If you love 35, go for it and join it! no regrets!!
But if you like size 30 better, why don't you pick a damier one? Damier ebene should be GREAT for a daily use (no vachetta).

Thank you all for posting. I actually have mono speedy 25, 30 and I have the damier canvas in 25, and I just bought the damier canvas 30 which I'm not sure if I should keep haha!

I'm really not into whites because I'm afraid I'll ruin it so that eliminates the damier azur and watercolor speedy even though their beautiful. I think I'm going to get the mono 35 and the Saylela GM too because I just love the damier canvas! Thank you all so much for your suggestions!

Get a different pattern like the Watercolor in the 35.

The size 35 doesn't look that much bigger than the 30 but it's definitely ROOMIER. You obviously love Speedies so I think it would be a fantastic idea to buy the 35. It's the same but different . I think you will enjoy it.

I never considered buying the 35 until I got the watercolor speedy. Now my husband keeps saying that I have to buy all size 35's . He really likes it!

Why don't u replace the oxidized leather on yur 30? - I'm not sure how much it costs...but it will probably be less than buying a brand new speedy 35.
