That's what my SA and I had a discussion with when I went in to check those pieces couple weeks ago.

The gold sequin Alma would be stunning IRL!

jch0425 -- I saw the Mono Eclipse bags today and now I can't decide. I like the Gold Speedy 28 and the Black Alma. Are you just getting the Gold Speedy? Did you get a chance to see the bags in person? I can't decide.

Hi Alexis! I'm going to get the Gold Speedy. It is more bling when the light hits. I liked the Black Alma too. Since the Sequins bag are not everyday bag, I chose just one. I yet to see the New Lunar Mahina and Courtney Bag launching in Fall along with the new cute charms.

I tend to like flashy bag but the black would be more suitable color.

Hi J - I'm sticking with the Gold Speedy since it's more blingy like you said. I was wearing all black when I tried on the Black Alma. It looked really good and that's when I started having second thoughts. But I'm going to stick with the Gold Speedy since I'd already have a Black Speedy Cube from last year. Thanks for the input!

Which one are you getting?
I am going for alma and I can't wait!

That's your choice too, right?

I actually wait-listed for the Eclipse Alma with the black sequins. The Eclipse Speedy is really cute but it's a little too small for me.

For this bag, it's really stunning IRL and I wish I could afford it, but the price is out of my range.

And I don't know if anyone knows that the 'inner' bag of this bag can be pulled out and can be used as a bag itself! It's pretty amazing when the SA showed it to me. So you actually pay for a (big) price for 2 beautiful bags.
Love this bag! How much is it????

Default Eclipse Alma or Speedy??
I am new to the Forum and am trying to get involved....I have a black Eclipse Alma and speedy on hold for me and I can't decide at all! I have seen the pics and hope that once I see them in person I will know.

Question: Is the Alma harder to get and how limited are these bags really? I bought the Stephen Sprouse Rose speedy and it is such a disappointment that they are still available!! I sold mine! If I am going to pay a premium for a bag I would like them to be harder to get!
