OK, just took some pictures of the only bag I am buying this year (no joke). I don't do a lot of monogram bags often opting for other LV prints/leather. I also resisted this new release since it seems to be real popular (and I usually go for non-popular LV bags :lol:). But in the end, I decided this fits so many of my requirements — shoulder carry, zippered top, large outside pocket, ample room inside for all my junk, no vachetta, Black/mono combo. It comes with a long strap but I plan to wear it like a hobo with a short non-LV strap (using this other strap here until I can find another one). I can remove the luggage tag and put a bag charm there.

I like this! I am usually not a monogram person but this is well done. Congrats! Also looks big enough to bury the vermin too. :tup:
 
OK thanks A for sharing (and confirming indirectly that I have enough closet space but need to purge some/a lot :lol:). I admit that I have “some“ clothes I don’t wear very often (I can think of 3 tops with tags still attached and 3 others w/ tags cut but not worn yet :lol:). My dresser in the bedroom holds my socks, underthings, etc, no clothes. I need to work on purging some more (I did a little bit earlier in the summer so I was able to move 3/4 of my bags from the guest room back to my room :lol:).
I have still have tags on some clothes I bought right before pandemic hit. Actually I dont even remember lots of what I have in my closet. Lol

Very nice!! Congrats and enjoy! Sounds like you really thought about this purchase. What is this bag called?

Thanks BBG. This is the odeon (a remake of the original Odeon). I chose the larger size and also chose black trim instead of aged vachetta trim. I went back and forth on a few different choices for a couple of months but finally decided on this.

This is very nice in black, and I would have picked it for you if I saw it in a crowd! I don't know if I've seen it and forgotten, but I didn't remember LV had a black monogram. I remember the gray one you showed us before. I like the strap options and thought the short one came with it. Please show us some charms on this as you try them. This is exciting you found your special bag of the year!

Thanks TO. I thought I wanted the gray one that I posted before but that style is not quite as functional for me as this one. They started offering mono with black trim on select bags in the last 2-3 years and I have been waiting for the right style to come along. I parted with my purple leather bag (one out before one in :lol:) even though that was prettier but it wasn’t that functional for me. I honestly think I can get a lot of of use out of this one.

I like the short strap with it. What other strap are you considering?

Thanks. I was going to custom order a black leather one from McCraft/Etsy. This strap is from a black leather shoulder bag I have. I took a picture of (sloppy/frumpy) me wearing it as a hobo — I really love it.

It looks great on you! I love the size. That shoulder strap looks to be the perfect drop. The hardware matches too.
 
I like the strap and bag too...looks great! As you know I love the shorter straps, so I am right there with you.

Thanks A. I wasn’t specifically looking for a monogram bag but this one has really grown on me. And since I realized I already have a black leather strap at home, it really helped me make my decision. I feel good about this new addition rounding out my collection.
