I love the look of the graceful, and the hobo bag is quite hot these days. Are you looking for the Graceful in mono?

I think it is a really good choice for an everyday bag, unless you really like the minimalist, tiny bag thing (which a lot of people do). I prefer to carry my life with me - lol
What size is the 2012 Michael backpack I am trying to buy one for my husband but I wanna make sure it’s big enough
Does the LV factory in France close in August for vacation? I ordered a mon mono bag and am hoping it will be ready for pick up before I move out of the country next month.
Hi, I'm new on here and currently shopping for a vintage LV Speedy 30 Mono. I recently stumbled upon the website Wanelo.com and I'm seeing some bags being sold for as low as $100. That seems crazy to me and like a scam! I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with the Wanelo site.
I don’t have experience with this site, the items I saw when I checked the site were fakes.
I would recommend purchasing on a site like fashionphile or another well known site that authenticates.
Better to look at Japanese resellers on Ebay or one of the reselling sites like Yoogis etc.
I am an awful shoe wearer. Everytime I take my shoes to repair, the guy always screams
As my HN says, I "work for purse" but not shoes lol.
Sandra, here is my experience with the SAs. First of all, they are TRAINED to get you more and more involved with LV! I am in contact with really young (inexperienced) one and this is what she texted me: "I'd like to introduce you to other categories. I was taught at training this phase that "Louis Vuitton should be a part of someone's lifestyle!" Maybe we can take a look at shoes, ready to wear, jewelry, etc!" First, I was shocked, second I started to laugh, she is so honest, I cannot blame her, but to me this is just a pure business. She is going after my money, nothing else! It is a nice way how to manipulate me to be "allegedly" more "me". No, that would not be the true me, that would be LV dressed on me!
I am very same regarding shoes and other stuff like you. I love high quality of bags and shawls, but I do not need other stuff...And I am fine like that. I just do not wanna be a walking commercial for LV, being dressed from head to feet in LV...I have my own personality, fashion style and taste. Please do not let that go...that is the true "You"! Be yourself, express yourself! That is what we do anyway, this is our joy, right? So, do not feel bad for your feelings, I think it is very important to question EVERY-TIME offers like that. I hope this helps. Please let me know what do you think about that.

Nope!! You do not need to wear luxury or heavy brand LOGO from head to toe.
I wear toms, sneakers and SW boots.

Thank you all for your opinions
I was hoping I´m not the only one who doesn´t buy high end designer shoes.. the more expensive shoes which I already bought are also not that comfortable but I didn´t pay that much compared to Valentino or LV shoes so that´s fine then.. I would be devasted if I spent 700 euros on shoes which hurt or will look bad after couple times of wearing them When I look at my cheaper high heels I just think thank god I just spent only 50 euros on them hahaha.. and they are really comfortable and not leather.. the leather shoes that I have do hurt me .. that´s really weird
....I also think if you are not an expert in knowing every designer shoes it´s hard to see which are designer shoes and which not (if you don´t see the brand) my husband got lv sneakers for his bday and he also said that they are not that comforable as his prada outlet sneakers or hugo boss sneakers and he paid less for them.
thank you also for this tip regarding the SA .. I sometimes forget that they are so well trained but the 2 LV experience which I had with clothes and shoes have been unfortable and at leatst I bought bags each time and my husband bought even a polo shirt and sunglasses.. so it was not for nothing for LV..
He is also not THAT happy with the quality of the polo shirt he said but it looks nice so lessons learnt I will know focussing of things which I really like .. bags.. shawls, SLGs .. betl sunglasses.. things which doesn´t show so quickly wear and tear as shoes ..my mum is also very manupalitive haha she could be a LV SA .. she is alsways telling me you have to have expensive shoes if you wear an expensive bag haha and if I mention that sometimes the more expensive shoes can also hurt she says they are not for everyday just for 3 hours hahahaha... then I don´t need to wear any shoes which are only good for 3 hours and afterwards they hurt me
Hi Everyone,
My first post, after lurking for years. Also, my first question: Do I need to condition LV calf leather before use?
I have read the care guide on the main LV site, and it says basically don't do anything. However, I have always treated my leather goods before use. I've tried searching forum history and there is great information there, just not sure if treating the dyed leather from LV may damage it.
The item in question is the Speedy 40 Monogram Shadow. I was purchasing a Neverfull for my wife and decided to get something for myself too hehe.
Thank you in advance for replies!

Hi. What an awesome looking bag!
Your question got me curious so I did a search. And from what I am reading on LVs website, they don’t recommend it.
Here is the link.

When the bag is new, there is no need to treat the leather. In, let's say, ten years, you may want to recondition the leather if it looks dry.Hi Everyone,
