Hey my lovely LV ppl ~ ~
Despite having collected LV for a while, I don't own any speedies.:shame:
so I'd finally like to purchase one and the watercolor speedy looks pretty.
I've been sleep deprived the past week because I haven't been this excited about LV in a looooooong time.
I really really really like the watercolor speedy series but I'm torn between the speedy with python handles vs regular speedy.
First of all,
I love everything about the new speedy w/ python handles but would I want to spend that much on a non-leather bag?
For me, it depends on how tough the handles are.
From my experience, the python scales on the body of the bags dry up and flake off easily, thus needing constant reconditioning.
I don't own any bag with python handles......
Anyone have experience with this? Would the scales on the handle flake off?
So.. then I decided I'd order a regular watercolor speedy.
However, what would happen after a while when the handles become dark?
I've seen pictures of handles that have turned brown...
Do you think that would ruin the appearance of the bag?
What's your opinion on the handles and its effects on the appearance of on these bags over time?
(Please no "If you can afford it go for the exotic trim" -- thank you)
Here are the pictures...
I'm talking about the white speedy bags
(Top one is the exotic leather trip and the bottom one is the regular speedy)
