I'm looking to purchase my first LV bag, but would love to hear from those who already own and love LV before making a big purchase! I'm thinking about a new Speedy B 30 in DE or a pre-loved Trevi PM in DE. The DE appeals to me because of its low-maintenance quality. I want a bag that I can use every day, in the sun and snow and not have to worry about it. I also love a bag that has a shoulder strap and the option to go hands free.
I worry that the Trevi may look a little too fancy to be used every day with casual outfits. I rarely ever get dressed up. From what I've read, though, the Trevi seems to be of better/different quality than the newer Speedy B bags. Perhaps not, though!
I'm also a little hesitant to purchase a bag in the DE (it's my favorite of all LV prints) because of some of the stories I've read about the wear to the piping/handles and to the canvas overall with every day use. Does the DE seem like it could stand up to daily use in heavy snow/rain or daily use period? I'm not all that gentle with my bags. What was your first LV bag purchase and do you regret making it your first one? Any other thoughts/advice would be appreciated! Open to other suggestions for a first LV bag too.
Thank you so much for all of your help.
