Okay so I tried on a damier and a mini lin bucket tonight and I think I really like them and want to get one. I wanted to try on the mono but they didn't have the petite which is what I would want instead of the huge one.

So for those of you who own a bucket bag, do you like it?? What are the pros and cons of this bag??

Also can you post modeling pics??

~thanks!

I've a cerises bucket. I found it's too small for me (couldn't help since I like cerises and there's only 1 size for the bucket). I think the normal bucket is too deep for me as well...

:sad:

sorry if it's not help.

The petite mono bucket was my first ever LV back in 99. I love that you get two bags for the price of one. I found that it fit everything I needed it to and it was a comfortable wear. I used the little pouch for my make up. I would post a pic of the inside but the vuittonite in my petite bucket is flaking off real bad and it needs to go in for repairs some day when I have money. If it weren't in such bad shape I would use it more often. I used to use it a lot when I travelled.

I don't have a bucket and never had one, but I considered getting this bag very seriously and left the store convinced I would get it when the time came for a new bag. I also tried on the bv that day and was deciding between the two. This was a couple of months or so before the price decrease on the batignolles line. Anyway, I changed my mind and went w/ the bv instead and it just go here and I am thrilled w/ my decision. It's a more modern up to date looking bag imho, and there aren't as many fakes of it out there. I see so many fakes of the petit bucket that it's really spoiled it for me. I see fakes of the speedy too of course which is my favorite but they are such a far cry from the real deal those don't get to me the same way.

I love my petite bucket! It is my first monogram bag and I carried it all over Vegas; it was super comfortable.
Here are some pictures that I have; I'll try to get a photo of the inside tonight when dh is home (not allowed to use camera!). I'm 5'5" and 130 lbs.

I have a Damier Marais and I love it! I find that it's not too small and not too big. I actually ended up selling my BV after I got this bag. Once the bag is on my shoulder, I don't find the open top a problem. Here's a pix below. It's kinda crappy cuz I took it randomly right after receiving the bag just so I could see how it looks.

I have one cerises bucket and don't like it at all. I wish that time I went for a speedy. I still keep it but didn't use it again. I take the little pochette to use but the bucket is still in my closet for a long long time.

Here are a few pics of my petite bucket. (Excuse the crazy, nonmatching pajamas!) I loved it, but sold it a few months back to buy an ellipse. It really is a great bag, the open top never bothered me. I never lost anything b/c all the small stuff was in the mini pouch. I think you should get it!
