Did you get any pics of the felicie strap and go? How was the canvas? Is it thick and sturdy like the sunrise?

I didn’t get any pics as it was very busy and I did not want to take up too much time. The Felicie was really tiny, so I ruled it out immediately, and how it was made it did not feel very substantial if that makes sense. I tried it on and while it was on my body I was not able to close the flap without fear of breaking it. But it is very pretty!!

You should absolutely get the one that makes you most excited, especially if you already dress in neutrals then a pop of color would look amazing. Of course you could also add a colorful charm or twilly to the black. Lol I’m no help!

Your comment made me chuckle :smile:
You are of help, I appreciate every idea! The framboise will be released on 29 July, so I have a week to decide :smile:

Today I braved the heat and went to LV because I couldn’t wait to check out the Felicie of the FFY collection.
While waiting for the Felicie to be brought out I tried on the black Alma bb with jacquard strap. It was instant love! :loveeyes: I was so surprised as to how lightweight it was and comfortable to wear as crossbody. When I last tried on an Alma bb with the regular strap it was awkward crossbody and way too long for me. What difference a strap makes! I also got to see the new berry colour, which is actually framboise and not burgundy. It is lighter and more pink-red than in Foxy‘s picture. It’s really gorgeous but I also loved the black one on me. Would you all go for black or framboise? Please share your opinions! :smile::heart:


About the Felicie, it is gorgeous but it is tiny!! I‘m curious to hear your thoughts after seeing it irl @MarryMeLV_Now and @Cathindy

That's awesome!! I'd go for Framboise as it's such a fun colour and would still go with loads of outfits. But depends on your personal style. Glad it's lightweight and you got to enjoy a shopping trip!

Are you sure it’s still available? I couldn’t find it on any countries websites…

The bag yes but not this specific color. I can't find the color online and that's what I was worried about that this color isn't available. I'll have to settle for the black one in that case but was holding out hope some stores may still have the cream color in stock.

Ah and those of you who have an Alma bb, do you use it with a rectangular bag insert or a dome shaped one?
Click to expand...
I have an Alma bb but don’t use any inserts. The bag is already structured and is small inside, so would take up the extra space I need for my contents. I tend to use inserts for my large bags. The only exception is an insert for my ink xs bag, where the leather is quite soft so wanted to add some structure to stop sag at the bottom.

Here to empathize! I live in one of the most expensive cities in the USA, and our tax rate is 10.5%, increasing to 11.1% later this year, that has to be one of the highest in the country! The only thing that makes me feel better is that VAT is higher in Europe, so I guess 11% isn’t that bad on a global scale…?

VAT in the UK is 20%. I got back from Greece yesterday and in just three weeks, all the food prices have gone up yet again. It’s just nuts!! I feel sorry for people that have large families, as their weekly shop must be ridiculously high. No surprise the reliance on food banks in recent month has increased 2 fold.

My heart goes out to those who are struggling for true necessities. I hope it gets better before it gets much worse.
