I'm going to NYC for a girls trip with my mum next week. She doesn't have any high end bags however after years of lusting over mine, my dad and I have finally talked her in to getting her first LV!

I've been to the SoHo and 5th Ave stores on a previous visit with my boyfriend, however I wanted to ask everyone which - in their opinion - is the best store for us to visit while in Manhattan?

It's my mum's first so I want it to be super special for her! [emoji16][emoji162]

Definitely the 5th Ave store! The Soho one is nice but I found that they didn't really have much in store. The 5th Ave is such a great store for your first buy :) Congrats to your mom!

Great, thanks for getting back to me :biggrin:.

Do you know if you need to spend $X or be a VIP customer to get a wee glass of champagne while we are there?

I've been offered it in Edinburgh and Soho NYC however when I was last working in London I went to the New Bond Street store and wasn't offered. It doesn't bother me normally (as I am often driving anyway so it's my boyfriend who benefits! lol) but I just think it'd be a nice added touch for my mum.
 
Hi Ladies!
I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post (if not, feel free to remove it to the right one) I'm in search of the Alma BB in Epi Blueberry, as shown in the pic - if someone stumbles across it somewhere please let me know :hugs:
Thank you!!! :flowers:

I would speak up that your thirsty...that way they would offer drinks of choice. [emoji1]
 
I feel so impatient!

My SA said that the stock they are receiving tomorrow might have the bag I want (NF MM DA RB), and if it does, it’s mine. But if it doesn’t then I have to order it, which is fine but once I finally decide that I want something, I want it now!

Help distract me!
 
Any one seen a pochette accessories in mono show up online lately? I don’t know why it has taken me this long to decide I want one. Hoping I’m not too late! Also, a round coin purse?
 
Ok, now I'm annoying myself!

My SA told me on Monday that she is getting stock yesterday and today, and the bag I want might in there. If it's not then she will order one for me which takes 3-10 days business days. It's now 4pm and I haven't heard from her if it's there. I sent her a text at around 2pm today for an update but I haven't heard back from her. I know I'm being impatient and annoying but I want that bag! I would like to have it for the weekend of June 8th. It's not a huge deal if I don't, but that was my goal, I was going to order it online on Sunday, which would have given me plenty of time to get it by then, but the SA told me that it's better to get it in store.

The very first time I went to LV I was not offered anything to drink. To be honest it seemed like they were in a rush and the store was super busy. A couple of visits later one SA asked me if I had shopped there before and when I said yes and they brought me up in the system myself and my partner were offered champagne. I don't know if this was the reason why or we were just lucky with the SA. I'd also asked to look at a couple of bags. On that occasion I was buying the Favorite PM so not one of their more expensive bags but the champagne was delicious. Good luck with your visit.

Today was the day! My mum got her first LV. She went for the Speedy B 25, and I got a keyholder. We got both hotstamped and had great service from the man in client services.

He stamped our items and when he spotted my Amarante Alma BB he was super excited and said he rarely sees anyone with that colour anymore.

Great visit overall!

How wonderful. Did she get the monogram or damier? Was it hard finding the speedy b there? They seem hard to find these days. She will love it. Great bag! Any pics?
