When I got my panaera tote last year I was actually debating getting a speedy bandouliere but decided that the call of the cannage was too great....!


This year however has been my most vuitton filled year it seems and deciding i need a great bag that can also be my weekender i decided to take the plunge with the original speedy 40 in classic monogram!! :smile:))

Now i am officially on a BAN until next summer....!!!

thanks emi!!! how are you doing recently? i has missed here so much! :hugs:

yes,it's vintage and over 40 years young!! i know it's not current design but didn't know she is double my age!! what amazed me the most is she is in great condition and the croc leather shines like new !!

papertiger was kind enough to tell me a lot of her infos, such like "Gucci made these semi-precious stone and thickly gold plated bags for only a couple of years before more International commercial expansion plans and the increasing casualness of fashion took over (as you know Gucci became the byword for 70s laid-back luxe, with hobos and shoulder styles, the Britt, first designed in 1973 and popularised by Britt Ekland in the Man with the Goldern Gun (James Bond) using her own Gucci bag meant these PROPER handbags fell from favour (so much so Hermes was deserted). You can be sure the red Gucci was handmade from beginning to end in Florence, when Florence and not Paris was fine shoe and handbag heaven.....etc "
