How many years do you expect that your new LV will be "in style'?

Since I just bought the Odeon MM which is technically a remake of the old Odeon, I don't actually think my bag is fashionable at all. But rather practical. Something that I get to use for many years. The outside pocket is for keys and phone so that's always useful.

I don't go for fashion anymore. The only fun thing is, I get to change out the strap.

I've always loved the old Odeon! Unfortunately, those that I see preloved look pretty beat up. I bought the South Bank Besace to scratch my itch for the Odeon, new before it was discontinued.

Sorry I confused you guys. I meant I adored the old Odeon. I loved the old vintage style, so I went ahead and got the new Odeon in November. Since it's black/ monogram I don't have to worry about vachetta. Here's a pic.

After this purchase I probably won't buy anything for a while. I think my handbag acquisition cycle is every 3-4 years as I'm trying to trim down my collection at the moment.

Do you like your South bank? I’m interested in getting the new Odeon, but have considered trying to save money and get a preloved south bank or Bloomsbury. Haven’t seen any of the styles in person yet.

I LOVE the South Bank. I love that it's carefree DE, and the outside pocket for the cell phone is a plus. I bought it new in 2018, so obviously it was before the new Odeon came out. I tried the new Odeon on but prefer the shape of the South Bank on me and I'm not crazy about the tag hanging in the middle of the front of the bag. I like the South Bank tassel better but if you want to take it off, there's no hardware left behind.

Crazy, I got a medium older style Odeon here on marketplace in great condition while they were still in production for like $350! SO glad I made that purchase that's for sure! It's so versatile, even fits my laptop.
