Vanity owners help please

Hello longchamp lovers! I’ve got a question for the vanity owners out there. How are you finding your vanity bag? Does it sag a lot? I’m looking to add the vainity as a run around bag and wondering if it will be good for that purpose.

Does anyone have any comments pros and cons that they can share after using the bag for a while. There isn’t much info on it here or on YouTube either.

Any help would be great. Thanks all!

Color for Mini Kelly to go with wardrobe?

Please help me choose a color for a Mini Kelly!

I want to put in a wish for a MK. I have a need for a tiny bag just for carrying phone, cards and keys - but have not decided on any color/leather.

Any idea? My only requirement is that it has to go well with the colors of my summer wardrobe.

I have all the H colors I like/need/want already, and as you can se I don’t mind multiplying colors. My go to are gold and etoupe.

I will tell my SA that I’m open for options, but will have to put a specific color down on my wishlist.

Don’t know if I should go safe for gold-gold, or maybe asking for something green… or something totally different.

What do you passionate H-people think?

Iena MM Damier Ebene

Advice. I have an Iena MM that I love. It looks great still 2017 model Damier Abene. The corners aren’t great. But not obvious to the naked eye. The handles are terrible. Need to be replaced. Haven’t used it in a while because last time I did he pulled out my hair because the handles are worn and don’t easily slide anymore. Otherwise bag is in great condition. I looked into getting the handles replaced by a leather expert and their quote was $400. I went LV their quote to replace the handles is $1070!! That’s just stupid. Anyway I have the opportunity to purchased one that appears to be in great shape. A 2018 model, seller wants $1950. Should I buy it or move on and get another/different bag? I wish i could sew I’d make something out of my old one! Thoughts?? Purchase something else? Save my money, but the 2018 model? Also what is really a reasonable amount to pay for a 2018 Iena in good condition?? Thx !! ☺️

Keepall 35

Hello peeps! I am totally in love with the idea of the Keepall 35 being a functional travel bag for me as a rather small woman (5“2‘)! I already own a Keepall 45, which really is too big for my size and gets so heavy that it really is bothersome for me to carry. The Speedy B 30 ist ok, but a bit too small as a travel bag.

However, I could not find many reviews yet about the Keepall 35 on the social media. So I was wondering, did anybody here order one of the Keepall 35s?

If yes:
1. How do you like it?
2. Would you recommend the Canvas or the Taurillion one?
3. Or would a Speedy B 35 or 40 be a better option for a travel bag/handluggage bag?

Also, I love photos. :cool::biggrin:
Thank you for any infos my dear friends!

Orange boxes question.

Hello! Long time lurker; first time poster here so I hope I post correctly. I recently purchased an Hermès shawl 140cm, pre-owned (from NYC) and it arrived in this box. (Scissors added for scale!)

IMG_0831.jpeg

Last week I purchased online a brand new Hermès shawl 140cm online and it arrived in this very different box.

IMG_0830.jpeg

I was disappointed. This box is chunky and the shawl didn't fit the box (the edge of the shawl had to be curled up a bit - nothing too dramatic but it wasn't the right box for the shawl). I felt disappointed as I expected to receive the shawl in what I believed was a "scarf box" ie flat and thin. Am I mistaken believing that shawls would be sent in these flat, thin boxes? I phoned the customer service person and she told me that the packaging changes frequently and it depends on what's available at the time at the dispatch centre in the south of France. She was sorry I was disappointed and said she would pass on my opinion that the shawl didn't really fit the box properly. I am just letting it all go but as a member of this great forum, I thought I'd ask if anyone else has bought a new shawl in this larger box?

Mid range brands European vs American brands

Hey everyone long Time not being Here.


i Just came from my trip to Paris and got myself a bag from Zadig and Voltaire and after I was trying to convince my mom to get a bag from the so growing brand demelier for her. at the end it didn’t convince her.

anyway with it it came like a little debate who did better mid range bags if Europeans with Zadig, Demelier, A.P.C vs the Americans with Coach and Tory Burch.
i told my mom I’m team europeans y mom team Americans. she does love Zadig but said the Americans have better construction and are bigger names worldwide.

at the end my mom did got herself an LV Wallet on Chain. she went high end at the end. Me I was happy with my Zadig

Is the Valisette BB "outdated" these days?

So I've been out of the LV loop for a few years since the pandemic and am only recently getting back to it. I have just found out about the Valisette and absolutely love the style! The only thing is that I am not sure if I should spend the money on a style that was released a couple of years back and doesn't seem too popular (which can be a positive but I am always thinking of resale value). I'm also considering the OnTheGo East West and the Neverfull BB.

Do you see any issues with purchasing an old style in store (when I say old, I mean something that might be out of style and not a classic style like the Alma) or am I not making sense?

City Bag damage, Rago Brothers response, thoughts?

I have this damage on my City Sahara and wondering if Rago Brothers is correct in possibly needing to re-dye the entire bag because of this? I sent them this photo of my Sahara. My red vib bag handle popped out of the dustbag during a move and the handles had been cleaned and redone. It's obvious dye was applied to the handles on my vib. I do not want to re-dye the bag. Any thoughts or alternatives, or experience with Rago Brothers? I'm trying to avoid re-dying this bag because it is nearly perfect otherwise.

FENDI Origami Bag

Hello!

Greetings Fendi lovers! I'm a new convert and happy to have just pre-ordered my first Fendi bag (not the First though)... the Origami.

I haven't heard of anyone discussing or posting anything about this bag yet. I do find it really interesting and clever-- having both a tote and a bucket bag in one bag all done by a simple transformation. I had a good play with it yesterday in store and I was sold. Now I'm anxiously waiting for it to arrive and this will be my F/W 2023 bag.

I'm just curious-- anybody else has thoughts on this bag?

Speedy DE braided handle strap length mod shots please :)

Hi everyone,
I've searched and searched existing threads but can't find any mod shots of the Speedy 25 b DE with the pink braided strap pictured below. Does anyone have photos wearing this bag? I am contemplating the bag but the non-adjustable strap is holding me back. I'm 5'3 and wondering if it would be too long on me and bang around my legs while walking.
Also, if you have any comments/thoughts on the wear and tear of the braided handle, that would be great. Hoping to use it as a daily/baby-toddler bag. Thanks in advance :)

Scarves Need knotting inspiration: 2 pocket squares with contrast hem

Hi scarfies!

I now have two somewhat similar pocket squares: Quincaillerie equestre in blue/teal with orange contrast hem and Cheval dechaine gray with pink contrast hem.
Both very soft vintage silk, from the men's collection. Sports associated motif, monochrome pattern, fun hem.

I would like to wear them together and emphasize the vivid contrast hems. Please help me with knotting suggestions!

LV refused to repair my preloved bag…

I bought a speedy 30 a month ago from Yoogiscloset and I reached out to LV care service to replace the handles. I just got an email from LV and it says the bag contains components or characteristic which are not consistent with LV material and craftsmanship. Does this mean my bag is fake or repaired by 3rd party? What are my option? The listing didn’t mentioned anything about repairs.
