Glad you were able to track one down. I am so confused by this release. Wonder if it will be restocked as well. The empire 28 i ordered from amazon came without a strap so had to go back. Was able to reorder but what a bummer as i was so excited to receive that bag. I really would have preferred to order through coach but they did not get that particular bag, at least not yet. I remember last year when the merlot 40’s were so hard to get and now they are readily available. I do wish they’d tell us if the loved leather is limited release. Fingers crossed yours arrives in perfect shape!

Another day with the loved leather 28! I’ve been loving this bag so much. Was inspired by someone on Reddit to loop the strap around and I love the look
Thank you as always for your valuable input! Of course, because I can’t bring home a naked bag 🤣 my newest beauty came home with a couple accessories! I agree, it’s a beautiful bag and not nearly as heavy as my Speedy P9 40. I seriously can’t get over how reasonably priced they are!
Thank you! No, it's the black. I have a couple navy totes, but didn't have a black one. I looked at the black loved leather, but I decided for me that the basic back would be a better option.
Looks beautiful in the black. I have the 28 in the black and wouldn’t mind the 40 too lol. Got the loved leather 40 tho so will have to hit pause for a bit. : )
So beautiful especially with your skull panda 🤩
No naked bags around here!! 🤣. The empire is so amazing right!! I’m so glad you found one you liked and dressed it up so perfect 😍😍😍. The price is definitely right and the bag is beautifully made ❤️
After buying lv for the last few months it’s refreshing to buy a bag that is beautiful and not $3000 + 😂
I love the empire and find it’s a nice change!! I just bit the bullet on the suede one. I have been looking for a suede bag but the only ones I like are so pricey and I just don’t know if I trust myself to take care of it properly. It arrives Monday so we shall see if I like it or not 😬
I have a confession. I went back for the suede! 🤣 I haven’t taken it out of the box yet. Seriously though. The two together weren’t that much more than the darn LV cowboy bear! I have a suede Rogue with fringe from a few years ago. Love suede!
Haha!! Oh please update me on it!! I have been trying to not buy the Balenciaga city or rodeo in suede because I just don’t want to spend that much!! But I am in love with the bal suede. I’ve looked at them both in store and online at least a hundred times. I ended up buying a green rodeo instead of suede because I’m so scared 😱
I know how hard suede can be to take care of and I just know I will mess it up. So this price point feels a little better 😬
I swear I’m ridiculous 😂. I have an old suede coach from 25 years ago and it still looks decent so I’m hoping this will scratch the itch!!
Please let me know when you unbox!!
My beautiful suede Empire is dressed and ready to go! Although not really suede weather yet. I did once have a CA at Louis Vuitton tell me that suede was originally intended to be worn in summer. It sort of makes sense. Weather is generally a little more dependable. I did spray with Apple Guard Stain and Rain Repellent. The color did mot change at all. Love this bag so much! 🥰
The empire in suede looks fabulous. Do you think the apple spray will protect it even if there is a real rain, not just a sprinkle? I have never used it and definitely not on suede. I am trying to get over my suede fears but not sure if i can. Also, do you think they will make this in the 28? Enjoy this beauty!
I think it’s perfect! I would not want to spend more on a suede bag. Busy day, but tomorrow I will take pictures of my suede rogue. I think it’s from 2018?
