Amazing April 2023 Purchases!

Hello bag twin-to-be!!!

View attachment 5762094

I also had the same thoughts that it wasn’t so popular out there, on TPF and on IG, I only came across one person who tried it out in the shop but did not purchase.

I had use it for about 3-4 weeks now. The strap is exactly the same length as sporty speedy 20 mono (unadjustable woven strap). The strap is the most comfortable leather strap that I owned.
However, this braided 25 strap allows the bag to sit lower as it hooks at the top of the bag instead of speedy 20, it hooks at the mid-ish of the bag.

I hope you love it like I do! Share your pictures too!!

So glad you love your beauty!! Even though maybe not everyone is talking about this bag, I kind of enjoy loving something myself that isn’t loved by all - means we have discriminating taste right? I adore my fuschia speedy 20 Nanogram and I know not many got that bag but for me it’s one of my favorite LVs and I’m in LVoe! And that’s all that matters for each one of us! Thanks for showing us your beauty. I think it’s a great bag!

I thought I wanted a nano speedy (and I still think I do! Although it's soooo hard to put my phone in) but alas there was no monogram in stock across the country, and as much as I love the kusama painted dots nano speedy I fear it's not timeless and I'll be "over" it in time to come. And so I decided to try the PSP - in both pumpkins and regular monogram, was thinking hard and was almost ready to pull the trigger on the regular (love the pumpkins but same thing about not a timeless bag..!), And then the SA pulls out this bag and I was sold..



It's called the fold me pouch! Haven't seen it here on TPF until a few days ago after I already bought it. Leather is soft and flexible unlike the PSP which is sturdy. My DH who was with me said I can put my water bottle in it which is what sold me because I workout a lot LOL.

It went out with me the very next day when I was on holiday small lightweight grab and go bag - exactly what I was looking for and easier to get my phone in than the nano speedy!

---
And then I got a bit of fomo for not getting anything with pumpkins (I have some painted dots items from first drop) and visited the boutique on the last day of my holiday to look for the pumpkins bandeau or speedy 20 pumpkins (knowing I probably won't buy the latter) - but alas both were sold out. I wanted to try something because I queued up to enter the store, y'know, so I asked to see the nanogram speedy in black and wow


I really do not need another bag (much less one again in so few days) but I couldn't walk away from this - black leather, speedy, nanogram for breath of fresh air. Classic with a twist. How to walk away?!

And we know how good the SAs are at upselling.. the bandeaus didn't *quite* spark joy - she said no kusama initially but then found a faces blue bandeau which was ~okay~ that I almost bought but I also decided to head up to the men's floor to look at...


How cute is that?!?!? It's quite overpriced imo (S$800++) and I remember reading someone here buy a pumpkin keychains from a kusama exhibit for a fraction of the price, but I decided to get it - DH (who wasn't there, was texting me) said, keychain probably more useful than bandeau, (and later after I bought it he also said you've been wanting the pumpkins, just get it out of your system )

The nanogram is so gorgeous especially in black. And the pumpkin. I'm in love!

My purchase on our recent trip to Paris. This is only my second LV bag and I ended up getting the tourterelle/crème. I'm in love with the design and colour and its so soft

We have only been back a few days though and back to work so I haven't had a chance to try the bag out but when I went to try today I'm struggling a little bit with the zipper. Its very hard to open/close and keeps pulling. Its actually impossible without holding the zipper closed with one hand and closing with the other.

I'm actually worried about the zipper pulling and wearing over time.
I was considering bringing the bag back to my local store for them to look at as I wasnt sure I'm happy with how its pulling. Maybe thats just how they are? As I said its only my second bag and my first was a NéoNoé so no zipper.
Does anyone else own the petit palais and know if this is just how the zippers are on them?

Even though I don't own a Petit Palais, I do own a Speedy 40, and the zipper works seamlessly. I have no problems whatsoever with it opening or closing. I would exchange because that would drive me nuts if the zipper caught like that and was difficult to open or close. It shouldn't be like that.

Congrats on your second bag! What a wonderful item to get during your trip About the zipper, my Easy Pouch had a rough zipper. I brought it to the store and my SA took it for a few minutes to the back, once he returned I had the smoothest zipper ever so definitely take it to your store to get looked at!

I really like this print a lot out of all the K’s print — love the pumpkin colors next to this canvas. Congrats and enjoy

Thank you thank you! I never thought I would fall for pumpkins, but this color is kind of hypnotic to me — and I also love it against this canvas color.

Congrats on this little Tiffany blue cutie! Does it have a shimmer to it like last years stardust collection or is it just one colour all over?

Thanks lovely @Bumbles
It’s the same shade all over with a pearlescent sheen to it. Easier to capture on the wisteria shade than the lagoon since it’s brighter. Both are absolutely stunning in person!
