Hi! Just asking for a quick opinion- I always purchase new but bought this on FASHIONPHILE for a trip to Europe in June- on trains, plains, etc…
Now wondering if I should re sell and get new with the peony interior. I saved $800 btw. Wire this bag.
But then will I be worried about dragging all over Europe for 2.5 weeks? TIA! Appreciate input!

I’ll be honest, traveling I’ve taken a bookbag and a messenger bag. It’ll rain, be humid, food might end up on it, floor etc.
However, if you’re okay with it, I’d recommend this one. You’re saving a good amount of change and if you can leave it in your hotel while you go to dinner, it’s worth it.

That’s a very good point- and was why I purchased for this trip. Abs yes it would stay back in the hotel while
I take a cross body (PM or PA) sight seeing or dinner.
But then of course I start second guessing! ‍♀️

I would definitely keep it for your trip. It would be a shame to worry about a new bag and detract from what should be a wonderful time! If you get back and decide it served its purpose and still want a new one with peony interior, you can always sell back to Fashionphile through their refresh program and put the money towards the new one. Have a wonderful time!

Perfect idea! Was my thought process from the beginning but then obviously spent too much time thinking about that peony! lol!
The size is great too- MM for travel was too small for me.
appreciate your input! I love this forum!

I purchased a mon monogram gm nf with my initial several years ago and it has been all over- trains planes and automobiles. From simple overnight trips to a boat in Italy it has held up so well. It still looks great. You will get so much use out of it!!
