Thoughts on this bag in red ladies????

[Div4life]

Yay or Nay? I love it...but some people seem to think it's plain and not worth 1395...what do you ladies think? It's either this bag in red or go Louis.

You should go with what you love! What was your choice in LV?

Can you show us what you're looking at in LV, and then we can pick.

Either one of the new epi almas that cobalt blue or kelly green or the damier alma

Personally, I love both. I think they are classic staples that are absolutely worth the money! I really like the tassle on the Gucci as well!

I actually purchased this bag in red. The color is amazing. My only problem is that once I put my things in it, it doesn't keep it's shape. I'll have see how much this bothers me.

I am so glad that you shared this with me because I am OCD about my bags keeping their shape and that is a deal breaker for me. I was wondering that actually.

You just need a base shaper, they are made for various sizes of LV Speedys but they fit the Bostons just as well.

Yeah, I have issues with that as well. The bag is absolutely stunning in person and empty. But when I tried my things in it, the sides kind of collapse. I"m still deciding whether I can live with the look or not because it's such an amazing color and would really add some spice to my collection.

Thanks I'll have to look into this because I really like the bag. Where can I find one?

Sadly I have tried my base shapers in the Bostons and they don't fit well...cardboard for some strange reason works better.

try cutting a piece of cardboard that is exactly the shape of the bottom of your bag.

Thanks for the tip!!! I may try this. I just don't understand why this was not considered in the design.
