I can't believe a few months ago I would stay up until that time to stalk for a mini pochette and pochette acc. LOL.

You’re not the only one. When I first joined TPF I was up at these crazy times on a nightly basis stalking the MPA. The one night I decided to have a break it popped up at 5am, a week before the price increase. Got it the following week at 5pm at the higher price of course. Lol!

Hey everyone, just looking for a bit of advice. :wave: I've been stalking the MPA for a few months now, and I've been thinking more about it recently. It'll be my first luxury bag, and although I love it, I do wonder about it's longevity due to the style. Does it make more sense for me to choose a bag that I know I'll use for the rest of my life? I may be over thinking this, but with it being my first ever luxury purchase, I'd like to make a good decision!

I get where you’re coming from. Are you following a current trend that could fade. Having said that even though the bag is styled and worn by many people this way, the beauty is you can take the pieces apart and use them all individually and incorporate with other bags/styles etc.

It’s a personal choice how you choose to wear this bag. I love mine and separate out the pieces or wear altogether depending on occasion and mood.

Absolutely!
I agree with bigverne.
MPA is a keeper. She is timeless classic mix with modern twist. Good luck with your decision

I think the mpa is a great first bag as you can wear it multiple ways! And if the trend does go you can always use all the parts as slg’s. But also would like to mention I recently sold mine as I felt for the price I don’t think it’s worth the money when I compare the quality to my other LV bags the mpa feels cheap, sorry to all the mpa owners but it’s how I personally feel towards the bag :doh: The strap will wear easily because of the material & I have seen a few people complain the treads coming loose. The pouches are great but check the zipper’s as mine was very stiff and to check the bottom of the pouch’s as some can be very bumpy too not smooth like the PA. The coin purse is good quality and it was the 1 item that made me really like the mpa but when walking around with it on the strap was very annoying.:no:

Agree the canvas is softer/thinner than two of my old PA’s from 2006. Zippers are not the smoothest, but not a deal breaker.

Bumps wrinkles to the pochettes have all smoothed out with wear or you can stuff with socks for a couple days.

No issues with strap that I’ve noticed as the jacquard weave is pretty tight and thick, but not to say it wouldn’t snag if you caught it on something.

I think the most wear and tear will be to the gold hardware and I’ve heard/seen this from some MPA owners who’ve noticed some hairline scratches not seen on their other bags. This could be down to friction from the individuals pieces knocking against each other.

I experienced the same.
I ended up sell my MPA rose clair (bought in May) after 3 times wearing it.
I wasn’t sure at that time.
Time after time but still couldn’t get this bag out of my head. I came to a conclusion that despite its price this bag offers a lot of possibilities of stye, timeless and hold its resell value very good.
So I went hunting again. 31 of augustus I was so lucky to get the kaki color and she’s perfect.

P.S Examine old LV pieces to new one just give you headache so better don’t :lol:

The bag definitely has a lot of possibilities of style & that’s why I loved it when I bought it. Especially as a first luxury bag it’s great you can wear it as a day bag & a evening bag. So versatile. I was lucky enough to buy 2 one for me and one for my sister in law. My sister in law bag has no flaws and it’s perfect but mine did have a few flaws after inspecting it. I just wanted to mention a few flaws to look out for with the bag. :rolleyes:
