I have a question--stunningly trivial AND off-topic, but hey, non sequitur is my middle name. The classic brown LV logo canvas: is it a neutral? Or is it best used with outfits that call for brown tones? I tend to gravitate toward black, greys and blues, and feel that the few traditional LV pieces I own just don't work--or is this fabric so classic that it reads as basically "colorless"? I trust the ladies and gents here to offer wise opinions. Thanks in advance. :flowers:

IMO it's neutral, Mindi.

I agree with lulilu it's a neutral. I have the St Tropez limited edition neverfull MM which is largely in classic brown monogram with bright pink graphics and I would wear it anything such as black, blues, greys, white, pinks etc. I think the LV classic mono looks great with black!

It has always been considered a neutral

I think it's a neutral, too. I just bought a 25 cm LV Speedy with some NM points to take on my upcoming Europe trip. I am going to try to plan my wardrobe around blacks, whites and other neutrals.

The only thing I've debated about is exchanging the Speedy for a black Pochette Metis, which I really liked, but wondered whether it was too close to my 32 cm Black Chamonix Kelly Sellier. Of course, it's a bit more money.

The speedy is more casual and carries more. The Pochette Metis is more polished.

First world problems, I know.

I would have the similar concern re shoulder strap, EB. Does the 25 speedy have a shoulder strap too or hand held only? I am not very familiar with their new models. I would probably want to have a strap option.

I just had a very funny thought while driving home
I'm in the process of divorcing my husband. (Long story)
Currently he throws tantrums and gives me sh*t every time he has problems at his work. He think my dad, his boss) wants to force him out because of our marriage status.
While I was driving home a random thought/calculation just pop into my head:
If I go buy something at H every time he throws a tantrum, it might not be too long for me to be offered my first B/K...
:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Sorry you are going through a tough time. Perhaps your Dad is giving him a hard time. It certainly isn't unreasonable for him to think so. But that doesn't excuse the temper tantrums. It's only making his position more tenuous. If going to H and getting beautiful things makes you feel better and you can afford it, go for it!!!

It's not so much people giving him a hard time.
It's more just people aren't bending company rules and policies for him.

Guys does anyone know how to post videos on PF? It says file extension not allowed when I try (.mov). I want to share my reveal as we are not allowed to direct people off the forum. But no one is responding in the Feedback forum about technical issues.
