For SLGs.... do you prefer it in damier ebene or monogram?

So I'm a monogram person when it comes to bags. But when it comes to SLG's - I like to mix it up. I don't love matchy-matchy. I have a DE cles that I use for lipstick and hair bobs. I have a Damier Graphite agenda. My mini pochette, PA, and PM cosmetic are mono - but then that led me to make sure other SLG's aren't mono. I wanted a ZPC desperately but didn't want any of the traditional patterns. The only one that worked for me was the Game On - so I paid a little extra to buy it on Fashionphile. ($50 over retail - not too considering) And I have Mono Eclipse Keepalls largely for this reason.

IDK. It's such a personal choice. I've never liked the matchy-matchy thing and once I realized a lot of my SLG's are mono - I made the effort to diversify. I see more Mono bags in my future - but not more mono SLG's.
 
I absolutely love monogram, but it makes me self-conscious to have it on my bags (I prefer DE, DA, and empreinte), so I love having SLGs with mono. Currently I have the Sarah wallet, Victorine wallet, Mini Pochette, and Cles in mono, and I find those suit my needs. However, if I'm carrying a DE bag, I love using my DE SLGs (Mini Pochette & Cles)! For me it's all about whatever sparks joy.

I feel the same way about monogram bags, even though I love them.
 
I have much more SLGs in monogram as in any other print because mono is my favorite print, the majority of my bags is in mono and some styles like TP 15/19/26 or RCP are only offered in mono. However, as I’m a matchy-matchy person, I’m slowly building up my SLG collection in DE and DA prints as well to go with a few pieces in these prints that I own.
