I bought a Speedy B strap - as a repair - and now I use the middle part of the belt with my South Bank Besace to be able to wear it crossbody, because I'm tall (5'11) and plus size.View attachment 3861762

The other two parts of the strap I added to my Portobello GM and now it is more comfortable and interesting.

I love this idea. LV straps are often short for me. Are the ebene leathers the same, or is the speedy strap piece shinier? TIA!

I like to carry it like this if it’s not stuffed fully and I use a “Bolt” key chain to connect the straps and prevent them from flapping all over the place.
I think they discontinued the bolt key chain.. but at the time I wanted to buy it it was sold out everywhere... goodness!!! Finally found it unexpectedly at LV on a short vacay in Milano, Italia :)

I purchased the bordeaux pm 2-way clutch preloved last year. It is in excellent condition for a vintage piece. So stiff and new, had never really been used. A very rare find. The seller said it was part of his late mother's collection.

Anyway it didn't come the original leather press button strap you snap onto the bag. I didn't mind initially as it made a wonderful clutch, however I still wanted a strap.

I already had a lovely gold chain strap from an another bag so I purchased some o-rings. I attached these to the bag loop to make it easier to hook the strap to the bag wi thout causing damage to the actual bag loops. If that makes sense.[emoji3]

I likes this looks better than it was originally with the leather strap.

Hello, dear lvoers.
I was playing with my pallas clutch and tournelle pm strap. This option adds some length to crossbody wearing - which might me useful for winter clothes. Do you think it looks stupid? Shall i try two chain extenders instead to get more symmetrical look?

Looks fab but it would be nice to see what it would look like with chain straps on both sides. I'm looking to do something similar.
