I would really appreciate some input from you, I'm kind of lost...:eek:

I have my mind set on the OTG PM, very pricy...but soo beautiful and functional and I love how it looks on me.
My store did not have the black bi-color in stock, which is the color I initially wanted, but they put me on the list for it, and now it has arrived.

I am now having second thougts if I should get the black bi-color OR the all black one?? I already have an OTG GM in black empreinte, which I love!

I love the bi-color because it stands out more, more unique bag and a bit more edgy, love the balck and beige. However, there is a lot of logos on it...will I get tired of that? Would you? The all black one is more subtle, no logos in popping out, less edgy but perhaps more classy an will perhaps stand the test of time longer. The all black is a more "safe" option I guess...but more "boring"?

What do you all think? Opinions on the black bi-colour vs the all black??

I can add that I mainy dress in neutrals, casual and sporty style.

Agree that if you already have the black GM it might not make sense to get a black PM. I get the size is different but do you feel you would use both?

Yes, I would definitely use both - the PM for daily use since it is a pretty small bag and the GM for travel (when we're allowed again..) or if I need to carry a lot, laptop etc.

I get your point, but on a general basis - do you think the bicolor is too "busy/logomania"? The color contrast on the bicolor is pretty sharp an "in your face"...

I think the bicolor is still a black bag. It’s striking and also more unique with the red interior. The all black is beautiful but fairly plain IMO. In GM the size gives it an edge it doesn’t have in PM. For this reason I prefer the bicolor. I don’t think the logo is anymore in your face than mono canvas or other logo LVs. Let us know what you decide and please post pics!

No, I don’t think so. I also try to avoid “in your face” bags and ones I would tire of quickly and I think this design avoids both of those pitfalls.

When I went to the store today, there was no dobut whatsoever - I got the black bicolor!!!:yes:
Absolutely stunning, love at first sight:heart:

I was afraid I would feel the logos would dominate the bag and be too much for me, but when I saw the all black and bicolor side by side, I could not take my eyes of the bicolor. Since this is a fairly small bag and the logos are a light beige color (not white) and kind of blending nicely with the black, I do not feel it is more "logomania" than a monogram canvas bag.

VERY happy now:yahoo:Thanks for all the input!

Need to buy an organiser to protect the beautiful burgundy microfiber lining!

I picked up a couple of other goodies today too. One being the the most beautiful shawl I have ever seen - LV or anywhere!!! It is called the So Shine Monogram Shawl in beige (M76337). It had just arrived at the store, so I guess it is quite new. It looks beautiful at the website, but the pics does not do it justice - in person is is stunning!!! Check it out - even if you're not interested in buying - eye candy galore:loveeyes:

Thank you :smile:

I have been wearing the GM about once a week since I bought it in March last year. Due to covid I have not been travelling, and therefore I have used it less than planned. I have not experienced any slouch. I also use a bag organiser from Samorga in it, which also helps to keep the shape.
