EU Chatting and Stalking

[bagsamplified]

I made some pictures for you! I think something to keep in mind is the wrinkling of the leather. I think the green one has been tried on a few times and you see a wrinkle through the logo.

Good gracious , its realllyy Gorgeous !!! Congrats darling !!! Glad that finally ur CC back on again so you can get this one , especially on that location How many Speedy u have now ?

It’s so funny to me I have 3 speedy’s now I remember like half a year ago I wrote in that “unpopulair LV opinions” thread a comment that I really disliked the Speedy and look at me now. I’m even thinking to add a 30/35 just for travel because I loved it so much

Thanks for all the sweet comments ladies! Can’t keep up quoting you This was our final day in Greece and for sure the cherry on top of the cake! Tomorrow we fly back to Amsterdam. Our flight got cancelled because of the chaos on Schiphol but we got a new flight fortunately. I hope everything goes smooth! Will share some more pictures later this week and tell you which island was my favorite (and it’s not Mykonos) and then I will stop my holiday spam, promise

Try to catching up what are you all up to these days , goshh ... alot of pages

@nesia69 HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!! and to you also @MarryMeLV_Now HAPPY BIIRTHDAY !! Hope you will have a blast and great time

@Magdissz , do you know how much cheaper is these beauties you mentioned at CDG ? We went pass Schipol otw to JFK few months ago, was looking for camera bag from Balen but was like ''only'' 5% cheaper than retail price if I buy in Copenhagen ... If its more than 10% might worth it to change our flight via CDG for our trip in December

@Cathindy are you still in Greece ???? You must now have really beautiful tanned

Thank you so much

Here she is!! I made a lot of pictures for you in different light to show the color. It’s a bit shimmery actually! Not sparkly glittery but a soft shimmer. The effect is exactly like the spray effect of the SS22 mens.

The inside is soft pink microfibre, very pretty but it does take up some extra space from within. My iPhone XR is an exact fit right now, I’m sure my mono NS is a bit more spacious inside. I also think this strap might be a bit longer. I will do a comparison with mono when I’m back home! Will also compare the SS22 PO with NS to see the spray effect on both of them.

I thought maybe I should let you wait till I’m back home again… I’m kidding, I finally have time after a new purchase

So first a bit of story time! I went to LV in Mykonos Town as you know and this was a little crowded messy store. Buttt Mykonos has another LV! It’s in Nammos Village, it’s basically a beach with super expensive clubs (they serve €120000 wine) and a designer village. It looks exactly like these outlet villages you have in Europe, except it’s not an outlet hahahaha. Besides LV they have Dior, YSL, Fendi, Burberry and many more. Dior did a great job in accessorizing the place. I visited all the stores and also took some time to explore the Fendace collection.

I went first to LV ofcourse and when I walked in I walked straight into the Stardust display! WITH NANO SPEEDY THERE I tell you my heart truly skipped a beat and I never walked anywhere faster then to that little thing the SA came up to me and I asked her like 3 times if I can really already buy it. She explained because they are a special pop up store they get more items in of new collections and earlier then other stores. I asked if she had only the display NS but they had another one in the back she got that one too so I could compare which one I liked better. The one from the back had some dents on the sides and the effect was sprayed on a bit less perfect so I went for the display item that was only out for one hour anyway while I waited on NS to get packed to go with me I took some pictures in store! I totally forgot to ask about Nano Noe and the Neo Noe, I didn’t see them on display. I made some pictures of the display items for you!

And they also got lots of Bandana in! I almost got my bf to buy the wallet, but they didn’t have it in so he left the store empty handed

Thank you very much for these pretty pics!
How did you like the green Speedy 20?

Thank you very much for these pretty pics!

No problem! I loved the green too, it’s very bright, I think the brightest of all the colors. The blue and yellow accent colors work pretty well. It does come with silver hardware and I know not everyone likes that but that didn’t bother me.

 

[bagsamplified]

You all have given me such an appreciation for the classics and brown mono with vachetta. I love learning and watching how you restore your bags, @deanomatter ! And @lovelyrita I think you made a great decision! You can always refurb your vachetta if you want and then you'll get the "new" bag but with the same memories- I love that!

Haha I was like you too @Cathindy except I did like Speedys and think the first LV I considered was a beautiful red leather Empreinte Speedy. Not mono. I was so anti-brown mono! But hearing how you all find it So good for travel and daily life..

So glad you had an amazing time and the pics are gorgeous esp of that luxury shopping village at the end. Was so dreamy and to die for! Your psp got looks of use and time in the sun too! Definitely worth you getting it. Really enjoyed seeing pics of your trip and imaging being there too! One you’re back you should do a family shot of all your LV bags to share with us. Will be get eye candy!!

If anyone is after the turquoise alma bb the product code is M20609. It’s orderable through CS. Not sure why the guimauve is available online but not the turquoise.

Yes very odd that the turquoise isn’t online
My order has a pic next to it now, hopefully it is true to this colour!

I think the B only out around 2010 -ish ? Again, I know how you feel. Speedy's has also special place in my heart I have one B 25 in Mono and 35 in DE ... I added B25 only few years ago ( 2020 I think ) but the B35 is from 2014

Ooh which one do you think is better bearing in mind using it with kids - the mono or the ebene? I know most people say the ebene because it’s carefree ie no vachetta?
also do You find the 25 or 35 size better, again thinking of kids or maybe even a halfway - the 30?

It’s just such a useful bag, especially with the bandolier.
i have it on my list to get the initialled one because I see it as a bag for life - just need to decide on the right size!
