I am also LV girl, but cca half a year ago I almost bought Antigona -Givenchy. I didn't get her in the end, but I still love this bag. I promised to myself to get it later when I start working again (I am on parental leave with our little angel).
Definitely get Delphie if you like it so much, she is a very nice bag! LV can wait and perhaps later they will come with something that will attract you....

I've been looking at the antigona too, I think it's a beautiful bag....I keep going back and forth between the small and medium......I haven't seen the medium yet in person....

I like the look of an Alexa but it's too big for what I'm after. The oversized version looks HUGE! Lovely leather though. :p

The bag I want is called Delphie. I've posted links in this thread - please let me know what you think!!

Go for it:-) I like LV but I venture with other brand that will serve me well and I make sure that every penny that I will spent is worth it, since I do not have a lot of extra cash so I always look for something that LV can offer the same as the other bag. I was torn between Speedy B and Alexander Wang Rockie...and I went and baught the AW Rockie since I did the math and the functionality, quality, and of course leather lambskin, I was so happy that I went and chose this bag coz I do luv it and I do not see a lot of people carrying the bag that I have, and I do get a lot of compliment and people stop me and ask me where did I get my bag:-) I never had that experience with LV when I do carry it coz I think people are familiar with the brand.

It's called Delphie. It's effectively two bags in one as it can flip into a different colour. You can see the video here on the Mulberry homepage:

The particular bag I want is the jungle green one. Green is my favourite colour and I love the pop it gives the bag. I also don't have a black bag so this bag could serve that function too. My style is vintage, lace, gold but laid back rather than ladylike so I'd wear it with the longer strap so that it falls at my hip. Haha you can tell I like it I can't stop writing about it :lolots:

Im really sorry if the links don't work- I've not done that before.

I'm really loving the Delphie bag. Have you seen it in person yet? I need to pop into Mulberry and check it out. It also looks great in snake. I'm pretty open to any brand for handbags. I like the idea of having a collection that crosses into alot of styles.

I was a loyal lv customer for about two years... And i decided enough was enough. The brand is changing rapidly, not in a direction i like, and other brands are producing nicer, higher quality goods. If you love the mulberry, then go for it!!!

I ventured outside of LV and bought the OS Alexa last year. Big mistake!! I hate that bag. You didn't mention which Mulberry you were thinking of so if it is the Alexa, I hope I didn't offend. I think I would've been okay with it if it was the regular and not the oversized. It's just too big, heavy, and hard to get in and out of.

I feel you...I have the oversized Alexa in oak, love the look of it, HATE to use it!! It is not practical at all! Really a shame when you spent 1300 Euros on a bag...

I have several LV bags and several Mulberry bags. I'm in the US where Mulberry bags are more unique. That's what I like the most! If you own several LV bags, why not branch out?
The Delphie is definitely a cool bag and getting 2 bags for the price of 1 can't hurt!
Keep us posted...............................

Just had a look at the Delphie bag on the website and think it's lovely! Also looks very practical. I used to be a big mulberry fan but haven't bought anything from them in ages because they haven't had anything that appeals to me but this looks like a winner to me! I'm not such a huge mulberry fan anymore but one of my most used bags is mulberry just because it's so practical. Excited to see this bag in real life

I feel exactly the same. I was obsessed with Mulberry and bought one piece a year for 3 years. Then I got my head turned by LV! I feel like I have everything I need in LV canvas and I think you get more leather for your money elsewhere. This bag looks really fun and a good bag to use at the weekends. I love the light blue / midnight blue version too but I don't like silver hardware...
