My BF scored me a DE key cles from Japan. Made in 2012 so not exactly vintage but it's in fantastic shape. Fits my Hello Kitty airtag 
Jolly June 2022 Purchases!

If you handles are centered in your bag, that seems the most important. LV does not consider asymmetry with the pattern a defect, although like many here I don’t like when seams are sewn and the pattern doesn’t match up (some would never match because of bag shape). I could hardly see the tab issues you showed. if it bothers you maybe return, but I would use your little cutie in a heartbeat! Good luck.Look, now Im home and can take pictures:
This is the „slightly off“ canvas, the tabs are not absolutely symmetrical to the pattern. Im also unsure about it but I dont know if other ones would be better…. Also one tab has kind of a stripe (pressure point?) and is bit crinkling.
Whereas the tabs are not curling up on mine as on yours
Perhaps its because leather is just a natural material and we have to accept these imperfections. But if it bothers you, better go in store and ask someone
Thank you for your response! Yes I know the alignment is no defect issue for LV and its ok for me. My Mono NF also doesnt line up perfectly on the sides and no one would look at it except ourselves… the small shadow stripe on the leather tab (hard to see in the pic) I think will vanish and blend in as the patina begins to darken it.
I decided to keep my cutie as she is perfect in every other detail and most important, I bought her in Verona on vacation. So exchanging here in my local store it wouldnt be the same holiday memory anymore
Received the Lilas ZCP I preordered earlier.
It’s a much lighter shade of purple than I was expecting.

Do you love it?? and can you confirm if it's actually shimmery in person? thank you!!
It definitely remind me of the mens illusion collection but the colour almost seems a bit faded and not as prominent.
My speedy B25 DE is my first LV bag, and I had no experience examining the bag when I had it. After 3 months of use, the leather coating of the strap has cracks. Then I stored the bag in the dustbag for almost a year, the zipper pull has tarnished.
Sorry that happened to you. The tarnishing is normal, but the cracking is not. Do you have a picture? You may be able to go back to LV and ask them for a replacement
Officially banned for the rest of June. Thanks for letting me share.
I was eyeing the papillion in green as well. The blue speedy feels very soft but thick almost like a Terry velvety feel. The white straps are super soft and buttery. such a fun bag In a great size. I loved this one more over the mono speedy with white trim and deflated tennis ball pouch.
Yes! I do love the material 100% it will hold up if not used as an everyday bag. as with anything white though, protect the white to keep it pristine.
I actually got these the last week of May, but here we are in June already….they are very pink, and I am not sure I can pull them off without looking ridiculous, and maybe they look a bit like they were free-with-purchase 
, but they are summery and fun so I’m going to (try to) rock them!
