I just came back from a short holiday in Paris and want to share the newest addition to my collection with you:

This cute Speedy 25 Bandoulière Monopaname from Fall/Winter 23 collection

I know the style is quite controversial and some consider it tacky, but for me, it’s a very thoughtful collection mirroring the history of Louis Vuitton.

Paris is one of my favourite cities - so a bag referring to its street signs makes me really happy when looking at it. The orange and beige stripes refer back to the times when LV luggage was first personalized for clients, my CA told me.

And where’s a better place to buy such a bag than in Paris? :heart:

By the way I highly recommend the store in Avenue Montaigne, just a short walk from Champs Élysées and so classy and quiet in comparison to the overcrowded flagship store.

I just saw a video uploaded by Youtuber , "Shanti Sangit" and learnt that this street sign monopaname speedy has got a two pretty cool different features which LV introduced :

(1) on the side of the bag where the D ring is , the usual font "25" is embossed in gold

(2) the padlock of the bag, there is the usual "LV" sign printed on one side the padlock, but there is an additional circle around the " LV" sign which is different from the padlock of the other bags.

Check out the video at time 15:34 mins onwards for the feature of this gorgeous bag:loveeyes::loveeyes::loveeyes:



Speedy Monopaname Bag
 
Not sure if I have already shared this Alma BB Monopaname that I received last week .View attachment 5841169View attachment 5841170
Love it but a shocking thing happened when I used it for the first time last Thursday, I noticed a lot of black stain on the canvas near the keybell side where I hang the padlock on, after checking it properly, I discovered a lot of black powder came out from the padlock !View attachment 5841171View attachment 5841172
The inner side of padlock dustbag is all black :wtf:

I informed my online CA immediately and she is arranging an exchange for me .
I just saw Shanti Sangit video uploaded today in YouTube n she pointed out that the padlock for the speedy monopaname is different from the usual ones. The padlock had the same LV logo but it had an extra circle around the logo LV. Much like how the pont 9 logo looks but on a padlock. I noticed your Alma BB padlock is the usual ones n not the same as this collection speedy's

I see, I have other bag with the padlock with circle but this Alma BB padlock is without circle , maybe they use different padlock for speedy . Anyway, they already changed it for me , the new padlock is ok .
