Hello, everyone. I am going to buy my first LV bag, and I can't decide which one to go with. I saw some pictures of a Lockit Horizontal, and I really liked it. However, I was very disappointed when I found out that it was discontinued. So, I like the bags to have a zip top closure, and I prefer the ones that can be carried on the shoulder. Also, I want the bag to be either Monogram canvas or Demier canvas. I am 23. Please, make any suggestions. I will appreciate any help.

Tivoli GM definately--young and hip!

The Palermo is a great everyday bag, but I love the Trevi so much more, I think it's a bit more stylish; it can be casual yet very dressed up. Both of them you can carry like a shoulder bag, but also like a hand held bag.

An Alma in the Epi style is also very nice, or you can have it in Damier (that you can also get with a strap). This is also a very stylish and classic bag!

I also think that the Bloomsbury is such a great and beautiful bag, but the Bloomsbury can only be carried as a shoulder bag. Though it is in the Damier fabric. Odeon GM is a simular style but it van be held both in the hand and like a sholder/cross body bag. That one comes in monogram.

Good luck

I definitely suggest Mono or Damier Azur Totally MM!! Simple, but comfortable, and very user friendly!

Saleya or Palermo

Phédre · Oct 26th, 2009, 02:40 PM

In mono:
Palermo

Odeon

In damier:
Trevi

I think the Tivoli or Palermo would be a great first LV bag. Good luck deciding!!!

LVMOMMY · Oct 26th, 2009, 07:46 PM

Monty GM, Stressa PM, Boetie MM, Etoile City Bag PM, or Thames GM.

It depends on your budget? If money is not an object go for Palermo or Monty GM for mono and for Damier- Duomo or Berkeley. Otherwise, Speedy (it seems to be the most popular LV as first bag )
