I haven't bought a bag in 14 months: what LV would you recommend?

It looks great but I'm afraid I wouldn't use the different options. But I have to look at it in the store.

The pochette metis I like a lot, but I am not sure whether it is a young women's bag (I'm 45?). I've seen it a lot around and also think, it is the perfect size.
Love the PM and I am older than you. Age is just a number! Wear what you love!
 
check the on the go pm in empriente. For me i always consider the closure of the bag, i like zipper bags but i tend to always leave it open. i think a magnetic is good as well or even an open tote but in the size pm. it has a top handle and long strap. Better to go for all leather. I always use hand sanitizer and i always careful about my canvas bags, sometimes its tiring to do so. But with leather bags, i really dont mind. anyhow, Good luck
 
Isn't it very bad for leather as well? OK, it doesn't have an instant effect as on canvas, but it also doesn't need years to ruin the upper layers.

Yes you are right. I mean i dont really mind if i accidentally sprit alcohol on my leather bags. But still im careful when i handle my things, not just bags but for everything i own. Its just that when i use my leather bag, i dont need to put the bag behind me before putting on sanitizer, unlike when im using my leather bag. I hope im making sense.

I need an everyday purse. My brain is telling me Pochette Métis in empreinte but my eyes are telling me Coussin. The other problem is I love the black (classic) but the new camel color is to die for. Practical me is saying get the black Coussin, but afraid I won’t be able to the seasonal camel later. If the price wasn’t so outrageous I would get both. Which one should I get??

Camel is a nice neutral color too. Black Coussin will always be around (classic right?) Hence, if you have decided on a Coussin, go for camel color!

i have the mono PM and the Coussin in a few different colors. I think it depends how you want to use the bag but I am not a fan of empreinte so I would pick the Coussin.

so no regrets in having the Coussin in different colors? I am seriously considering getting both camel and black bc I can’t decide. It would be a no brained had the prices not gone up so much…

If I were in your shoes, I would get Coussin in Camel first. Then at the 3 months point from now, see if I still want the black. My rationale is similar above. Camel is special colour, if I wait any longer I may not find it available by the time I want it.

It’s a new design for you, might be safer to get one first, try it out, see if it suits you. If you love it, no harm getting the black one later (but before 3 months from now, in case they decide to have a PI again) since black is the classic colour that’s always available. Should you find the bag not to your liking, at least you only need to return one bag not two.

Thanks for your feedback. I agree with this logic

I have the Coussin MM in Caviar (black) and it is truly exquisite, especially accompanied by the gold hardware - this coming from someone who usually prefers all things grey or black, silver or tone-on-tone hardware! I vote for the Caviar!
