I have tried both bags in their boutiques and seems as though you could fit equally amount of essentials on each bag. I still have the Pochette Metis bag on my wishlist (still plan one day to get one!) even though I ended up getting the Soho Disco bag, recently. Just depends, which of the two you will use more of. Though, it will be a difficult choice if you love both of them. Let us know which one you decide to get! :)
 
Having owned both bags, I would definitely choose the disco over the pochette metis. While LV is definitely my fave luxury handbag brand, the disco is one of the best small crossbody bags ever made, imho. The disco and the PM fit roughly the same amount of items due to the difference in their shape (boxy vs. wide and flat) and interior organization. Even thought the PM is larger than the disco, the PM's divided interior compartments actually reduce the amount of useable interior space. The disco is extremely durable with no major manufacturing defects (unlike the PM, which has a well-known glazing problem). While I really like the look of the PM, the disco is equally beautiful imho, and it is, overall, a better value and a more versatile bag (both in terms of transitioning easily from day to night, and in terms of working with a variety of outfits).
 
I've loved the pochette metis for a while and I haven't been able to pull the trigger on it for some reason. It's a great size and I love the idea of having both a shoulder strap and a handle I always like multiple ways to carry a bag. However I've always felt like it was overpriced for what your getting. Also there have been a ton of issues with the glazing on the sides and that for me is a deal breaker, I have a ps1 that has serious glazing issues so whenever I see glazing I'm really hesitate to go for it because that's something that will bother me. Size wise most who have both say that they are pretty comparable. I also think that style wise that the disco is more versatile/classic vs the mono on the LV. Personally I'm a big fan of pebbled leather so picking between pebbled leather vs coated canvas is a bit of a no brainer always go for the gorgeous leather. As much as I like the pouchette me tissue it always seems to be on the back burner for me.
