Default How "Flashy" are You?? What's the "Flashiest" LV in your collection?
Today I was getting ready to go to my kids sporting events so I went to switch to one of my shoulder bags. I reached for my Galliera but felt too flashy. However, I always feel comfortable carrying it at a mall. I know that's silly and it's only a bag but I always feel like it's too flashy for certain places. It holds all the things that I need for me and my baby but yet, I didn't carry it. It's also the most comfortable bag that I own. So, instead I reached my for go-to bag, Damier NF MM. Since most don't even know that it's LV, I always feel comfortable carrying it. I guess that's how I know that I would never truly carry MC even though I love some of the bags.

Now, someone else may read this and think, "That bag isn't flashy at all." And, some will understand my dillema. What's the flashiest LV bag that you own? Do you sometimes not carry it because you feel others may be looking at or judging you?

I think it may be interesting to see all of our varied opinions of what LV's are "flashy".

ETA: Please do not bash any LV's as that is not the intent of this thread. Thanks...........

My flashiest bag is my graffiti keepall in my avatar and I carry it constantly because I work at a fitness club. I sometimes do not take it and use my damier graphite keepall because as you said, most people do not know its LV

I think anything mono is flashy just because the LV logo is pretty recognized everywhere. My tivoli gm is my most flashiest bag.

hmmm I've pretty muted my self out. I dont like flashing thats why. Idk i dont feel comfortable with flashy items thats why i returned the white evidence i bought. But my flashiest is tied with my graffiti/MC/Pulp bandanas, and my Graffiti tie.

Hm, my flashiest item is the speedy cerises which is actually not flashy at all. I compensate that by wearing WeSC head phones in green.

The flashiest in my collection would be the Gold Miroir Speedy. I only carry it during the Holidays or if I have an event to go to. My next flashiest would be the Pink Graffiti Speedy. It attracts so much attention when I go out with it.

I don't think any of my bags are flashy... My accessories in rose pop vernis however is very flashy but not because people may recognise it, but because of the color

I had the mono riveting. That was an attention getter. I dont think I have any flashy LV bags. Chanel yes, LV no.

Also if I do break down and buy an eclipse speedy, then that will be the flashiest of them all!

Galliera PM ~ I agree sometimes I don't like wearing my bags certain places if it screams the brand, in that case I wear my Chanel PB tote.
