No I don't think it's crazy... I just sold some of my mulberry bags to fund a mono speedy b 25 actually but I love crossbody bags and love it. ( satchel styles, small cross body and totes are my favourite styles hinge why I now own a speedy b 25, Eva and neverfall mm from LV)The reason LV do so many bags is because everyone has different tastes.



The only thing I wouldn't sell would be your mc cles. Once they discontinue it you would find it hard to replace. Also if your thinking of a DE,DA or mono cles then they won't go up much plus they won't take as long to save for as in LV terms they are one of the cheaper items .

I think if I had gotten a 25, things would be different right now because from what I've seen and read the 25 doesn't have as much of these issues. I also love crossbody bags, but I don't actually own much of those. A lot of mine are actually top handle -_- I'm dying for more shoulder bags, especially one hobo, and more crossbody. I think the Eva is so pretty, but I just don't do well with zippers so I prefer the Favorite. I also want a Neverfull at some point, but it's not a priority because I have a couple Michael Kors totes that do me just fine for now. I would like to make my collection more versatile at this point.

Lol - when you put it that way, it sounds so obvious! I am not sure why I would like to replace it with, but I have always regretted not getting the 25 instead of the 30. Would it be crazy to sell the 30 and then turn around and get the 25?

I don't think it would crazy to do that, as long as you know for a fact that the 25 is what you want. You know, try it out in person and compare it with the 30 to be 100%.

Thanks for your input! I always respect your advice/opinion.

The closet boutiques are about 3 hours away from me. I'm 100% certain about the Curieuse because red is what I wanted in the first place (did not purchase this at full price either, paid about 1/3 less than retail). Speedy B I got new for less than $1k. The Sonatine I got months ago preloved, only used it once and hated it...I don't even remember why I was so obsessed with this bag to be honest. Favorite PM, every time I pull it out I wish it were bigger. I think the only one to be concerned about is the Delightful MM, which I won't purchase without trying on first and being 10000000% sure I love it. I was going to plan a weekend out of town to go to the boutique and try everything on just to be 100% percent.

My entire collection was purchased preloved in excellent condition except for my 6 key holder, which I bought brand new a month ago and I do not plan on selling. I got them all at really low prices so I'm not too worried about losing too much, since I've kept all of them in tip top condition as well.

Not at all but make sure you are sure about that. Go in and see them up close and personal.

I have the de speedy 35 B. And love using it when traveling. I use a purse lining from purse bling to keep its shape.

I'm sure the DE B35 is great for traveling. I bought a purse to go organizer for my B30 and when I use it I lose so much of the space which is why I don't like using it.

. . I already have money put aside for a mono Noe BB (I was saving this for when I reached my weight loss goal but considering the upcoming price increase I may just buy it and wait to use it after I lose weight.

I love your honesty:) I like your weight loss motivation and reward:) I too lost about 50 pounds the last 3 years and successfully kept it off until I got pregnant last year. My baby is 3 months now and I've been working really hard since she was 4 weeks old to slowly shed the pregnancy weight :) I never rewarded myself with LV before on my first time but now you just gave me an idea! Lol!

Thanks!

I had been having some trouble trying to take that first step. I lost 50 lbs in the past, but it was when I was around 21 years old so it was much easier. Now that it's been 5 years and I gained it all back again, it's so much harder this time around! But I'm getting there for sure. I've already dropped from a size 16 to being comfortable at 12. I actually fit into my size 10 skinny jeans last week as well! I figured having a goal like a new LV is great motivation... it motivated me to get straight A's for Spring 2014 semester and Summer 2014 semester as well!

I have officially sent the following items for quotes from Fashionphile & Yoogi's: mono Speedy B 30, mono Sonatine, mono Favorite PM, and Empreinte Curieuse in Orient.

If I can get anywhere near what I actually paid for these items, I will most likely accept. If I get significantly lower than what I paid, I'll probably try to sell them at the local consignment shop near me that I've heard very good things about (plus no 30% consignment fee!).

Good luck! I also tried Fashiophile and eBay, and decided the eBay route when selling my original speedy 25. That was a little scary because the girl that bought it had no feedback scores. But the reason I opted to sell on eBay was just to squeeze out a few dollars more. ;)

Good Luck! I sold my Speedy B30 Mono few months ago, didnt regret it, it was too big for my liking. I end up got my Speedy B25 and I love this size for long shoulder/crossbody style more!

Excited for you!
Time to fund for your new love!! I enjoy so much doing research and trying new bags in the store before I make up my mind everytimes.
