What LV item started your collection?

My only items are a wallet and the small bag that comes with the papillon. I Don't really know if either are authentic, (my DH found then at the thrift).

I Love handbags, and through careful shopping/hunting I Have been able to find some gorgeous Brahmin bags. I also have a few Dooney's and Brightons, but I REALLY am looking for an older LV mono. A new bag is out of my price range, so I am hoping to find an older shoulder bag or papillon on ebay or somewhere else. Where else are older bags resold?

My first LV was the damier papillon 26 :love: The Speedy 25 was what actually started my love for LV, but I had asked for it for Christmas, so I bought the papillon first, in November last year :nuts:

that's exactly my first LV purchase. the damier papillon 26.
 
Mine's a trouville I bought in the Paris flagship in Oct 2004. But I'm really really sick of it now, although I've only used it a little. EVERYONE has a trouville. I'm re-selling it to get a Vernis Reade PM.
 
I'll just do firsts and seconds:
My mom's first was the Speedy 30 and her second was the Trocadero.
My first was the monogram pochette and my second was the fuchsia vernis Lexington.
