I have been given the "go ahead" for my second LV purchase. My delima is:
I have my eye on a speedy 30 watercolor but it already has some patina on it and quite pricey.
A speedy 35 watercolor that is brand new, but possibly too big...I'm slender and 5'7". It is actually cheaper than the 30 and new.
or a Galliera (the smaller one) but again...worried on the size being too big.
Or, I could just go with the monogramed speedy in whatever size and buy it brand new (and way cheaper) from LV.com. However, I have a Batignolles monogram and wanted something still monogram but with a little difference to it....
Anyone have any suggestions. I've seen several threads on 30 vs. 35, but haven't seen any pics of the same person holding each one.
I absolutely LOVE the watercolor look, so my heart is sort of set on it.
I would appreciate any and all thoughts! TIA
***Edited to add I "borrowed" a speedy 30 from Avelle in the Dentelle and the size is okay. I don't have a local LV store so I thought this would be a way to get a feel for how much I would like the speedy. I like the size but if the 35 wasn't much bigger, I think it would be ok. I just keep hearing people say it looks ackward.
Sorry for the lost post.
