I have the reverse mono and use it a lot. I have no issues so far with the top and there is a mild crease when you lift the top. I saw the black and that chain is everything! Indefinitely recommend the camera box bag!
I’m so glad to hear it! I think I remember you returned, and then ordered again? It must have been true love 😀 do you find the size useful? I’m thinking leather will crease some too, but I would expect that. Thanks for chiming in!!!🖤👜

Yes, you have a great memory! I find the size really useful. I’ve used it going out where I needed a smaller bag for what I needed to carry like phone, zcp key fob which is all I needed room for. It’s small but can fit quite a bit..

That’s great to hear. I’ve measured other bags against LV’s stated measurements and it looks like it will hold everything I need, but always appreciate additional info. Have a great weekend!

Cross posted from May Purchase thread :P I’m too excited not to post here!

I finally get to unveil my one May purchase (that I kept, 2 bumbags didn’t work out for me). I really think this may be my very favorite LV bag so far! Many of my bags I absolutely adore, but the second I took this one out of the box, I knew it was mine for good. It’s even from the women’s line - it seems like lately everything I’ve been buying has been from the men’s lines.

Without further ado, please let me introduce my Noir Camera Box Bag!🖤 The second I saw this bag I fell in love with it. The reverse mono version is fabulous, but this one has my name on it. I love black leather with silver hardware and with studs and with a more rock ‘n’ roll chain, this checked every single box (except price, yikes I waited awhile before buying). It smells luscious, the subtle monogram is so nice, and it holds everything I need. This beauty was made in Spain, and it is absolutely perfect in every detail. I was so thrilled and distracted I could barely work yesterday after it arrived!

I included a few WIMB pics for reference in case anyone is considering either version of this bag - don’t have to play Tetris at all if I don’t carry my Calvi, and my keys fit on top, but this bag is surprisingly roomy and fits my iPhone promax 14. And thanks to you @LVlvoe_bug, I knew the size would work. :flowers:

It’s truly a winner!!! Now if we don’t get rain, I want to go out to lunch or dinner this weekend carrying this beauty! It was such a joy to receive a perfect bag, and my wonderful SA included LV Book 16 for me - what a sweetheart. Happy Friday all 🌺

Thanks so much @LVlvoe_bug! Your love of your bag really made me think it would be big enough and very useful. Plus edgy - I love edgy, but not many of my bags are. Go figure.

I’m glad it’s on your list - it’s so different than most bags. And in black and silver so different from your current one :P (Enabling mode activated). Thanks again! Happy Saturday!🖤

Congrats @DrTr!!! She’s absolutely STUNNING - what an utterly gorgeous bag!! I love love love her! Ahhh I don’t have words. Just. Beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️ GOD I’m tempted so hard right now.
Thanks so much @Pursephile - you’ve also been very helpful as I decided to get this bag. I believe you said you had :too many: black bags, but this one is so different right?🤓 enabling mode activated again!! I never got to feel one of the speedy ink bags, but I loved the look, and in a way this leather/monogram reminds me of that. Good luck - whether your goal is to be tempted and remain strong, or to get it!! :flowers::flowers::flowers:

I bought the black camera box bag and I LOVE it!!! For me, the silver chain looks too long to let hang. And like others said not practical for a shoulder strap. The chain is stunning and edgy and I am desperately trying to find someone who can shorten it by a few inches so that it will look better hanging and using the black strap crossbody. Does anyone know what it is made of? Is it Stainless or Palladium? No jewelers are willing to touch it because they cannot solder the two little rings back together with the equipment they have.

Congratulations @Linnie711!! Isn’t this bag just fabulous! I carried mine yesterday to lunch and was blown away by it. Still can’t believe how easily it holds my things.

I don’t know what that edgy great chain is made of, I would guess whatever it is plated silver tone of some sort. I bought a pair of silver tone costume jewelry earrings awhile back, one of the small rings throughit fell off, and my jeweler also refused to work on it (I’ve known them 20 years and they are excellent) as they said it was not a metal they used and couldn’t solder like you have found. The chain is long, but it is a stunner.

I did find the following quote on LV website about their fashion jewelry, dk if the chains they make are similar. HTH, I didn’t wear the chain yesterday as in wasn’t sure of seating at the restaurant. Good luck, hope you can have what you want.

“Louis Vuitton fashion jewellery is made of brass with a golden or silver finishing, allowing for both durability and a lustrous appearance. While resistant, your jewelry requires special handing and care to ensure optimal performance and appearance.
It is recommended to use any perfumes, hairsprays or lotions before putting on your jewelry, as repeated contact with such chemicals can cause the materials to dull or oxidize. Please remove jewellery when bathing, cleaning, or performing strenuous physical activities. Wearing in very humid, or salty environments (such as a beach, sauna, or pool) is not recommended, as it can cause the brass to tarnish prematurely.
To minimise the appearance of surface scratches, limit the exposure to abrasive surfaces. It is always best to rotate your jewelry, as uninterrupted use may cause the materials to break down prematurely.
For storage, simply place in the pouch provided at purchase away from dust, moisture, heat and humidity. Lightly polish with the same pouch for cleaning. Immersing in water or the use of any chemicals may cause irreversible damage.” Credit to LV website

Thank you so much for this info! I am going to try a couple of places today and see if I have any luck. I'll post to the group if I have an update.
