I have a Speedy 30 in Mono, now I am thinking of getting a Papillon(not sure in which size yet though), but since the papillon is more a handheld bag (I know it can be held as a shoulder bag as well, but not really to me), is it a little the same? the feeling?

All the Papillon and speedy owners, please give me some idea..:shrugs:

I think they are two totally different bags. I think the papillon has such a DEFINITE shape to it. I have one on my wishlist, but in the damier canvas.
Go for it!:biggrin:

I think they're different...

speedy - box/triangle shape
papillion - circle

at least you have the option to make the pap a shoulder bag whearas speedy is strictly hand held! if you think they're too similiar why not go for Damier papillion! those are awesome!

I have a Damier Speedy 25 & a Damier Papillon 30 and I find that I can put more things in my speedy. The Papillon always feels packed & I just take out the baby one because it takes up so much room. I do like that it's a shoulder bag though.

The monogram papillon was my first lv and first designer bag ever. My parents bought it for me before I went away to university 5 years ago. I've never actually used it in earnest until now, and I'm glad I finally came around, because it really is a chic, mod bag, and not as hard to get in and out of as many people claim.

I never use it as a shoulder bag; it is strictly handheld for me. I just hang it on my wrist by both handles, and stick my hand in my coat pocket.

Easy breezy!

I have the two Speedy 25s (Mono and Damier) and a Mono Papillon 26. I use the Pap when I am wearing younger, trendier clothes and the Speedies when I am in a more "classic" mode. I'd love to get a Damier Pap 30. I think they're both fantastic bags!

I have the Damier pap 26 and the Damier Speedy 30 and I love both! I don't think they're the same at all. The Papillon 26 can hold a lot, but it doesn't look big, so you can wear it when your dressed up as well. I don't mind that I can't wear it on my shoulder, because I prefer handheld bags.
If you have a speedy in Mono, I'd suggest to get a Pap in damier! I think it looks better in damier because of the contrast between the round shape and the square pattern and also because there aren't LV's upside down on it.

I have both...they are very different bags.

As far as "same" bags, I have the Viva Cite MM and the Popincourt Long...they to me seem a bit similar...but still different enough for me to own both!

I have a mono speedy 25 and damier papillon 26. They are totally different. No doubt the speedy holds a lot more stuffs. I will say speedy (especially in mono) looks more casual, and papillon looks more feminine.
