What do you all think about the bicolour monogram empreinte in black/cream? I went a bit crazy on Valentine's Day (before the price rise on Wednesday) and bought both the Onthego and Neonoe in bicolour black/cream. Should I exchange one of them? Or keep both? :smile: And how's the wear and tear on the bicolour?? I have several piece of the 'normal' empreinte, these are my first bicolour giant monogram. Are they 'too much in your face'? I wasn't even supposed to get the Onthego! But fell in love when I saw it, I've seen and tried the black empreinte, but got the Neverfull in black empreinte instead. And not too much of a fan of the Onthego in reverse monogram as I already have the Pochette Metis reverse. And some of the main reasons why I went for the Neo Noe bicolour is cos it doesn't have the middle attached comparment but a separate pouch instead :heart:60F5FC57-6501-42B2-BF95-3CF87696BDCF.jpgce1b583e-481e-4df9-bb19-f845e7bcf1fc.jpg

I am not a fan of big logos as well BUT when I saw a bicolour giant monogram (black/cream) Pochette Métis I couldn’t let it go and it ended up coming home with me. I don’t know why, but somehow I don’t find it as loud as I feared I would. Moreover, I personally find bicolour Empriente works well for all seasons. I have a plain Noir Empriente Pochette Métis and for me it’s mainly a winter bag. As for the bag styles - I personally am a fan of Noe and not so much of On-The-Go, but I must agree with @sweetlikechocolate - they are very different bags so keeping both could be justified.

I wanted the Neonoe for so long but OTG was a surprise buy! Might just keep both. One for causal and the other one more formal :). Thanks!

Keep both they are beautiful and differ from each other. I personally love the bicolour and have had no issues with it at all. IMO the colour matches everything as well. I don't see it as in your face like the monogram print. You're making me want that on the go now.

Thanks! Hubby is the one who convinced me to get the OTG :amuse:. I tried the full black empreinte before Christmas but it didn’t convince so I got the Neverfull in black empreinte instead. I was only eyeing for the Neo this time actually :). But an added bonus is the small pouch that comes with the Noe, which also can be used with OTG!

This is probably one of my favorite color combos right now. I have an OTG PM and also a double zip in it. Honestly, I would keep them both myself because the OTG and Noe are both so different!!! That pouch is adorable that came with the Noe!!!

Looks like I’m keeping both, thanks :heart:! Btw, how’s the wear and tear on the bicolor? I saw in a different thread that someone found cracks on the cream LV logo in front! That was a PM thou.

I haven't carried my OTG as much - just because I find it "dressier" too. But so far its fine. On my double zip I have found the slightest mark on one of the cream areas that has a little black dot - I'm not sure if it is wear or it could have been there when I purchased it. I normally inspect pretty closely but I could have missed it. Everything else looks brand new still though on it. I have carried it quite a few times.

Fingers crossed that they’ll hold up nicely! I’ve checked carefully on both, so far so good. So no defects from the store. Kinda imagine that it‘ll hold up nicer on the OTG coz the leather won’t bend as much…

I agree with that about the OTG since it won't bend as much!! I hope you love both of your new bags, they are beauties!!!

I love the bicolor in black and cream. I got the mini pochette for Christmas and have had the key pouch for only a week or two. I use them daily and so far, so good. If you have to choose only one bag I would go for the NeoNoe as it seems more versatile.
