Thanks!! I see this was posted on the Speedy 20 DE thread too. I appreciate the AUD clarification because I had sticker shock thinking that was USD!

Would not bother me but everyone is different!
Maybe it
Maybe it's the lighting angle but I can't believe how dark the Speedy is here! I like it like that. But I don't mind the pale.silver either. I'm not gonna buy so.am enjoying the eye candy
I get sticker shock when I remember USD doesn't include tax!
That's a very big difference in tone. There is only a single display piece each in 2 stores in my city, so I'll not be able to compare. Most likely will have to buy online.
Just so I know which I might prefer, do you find any difference in the iridescent effect between the darker and lighter shades? Is the effect coming from the white parts of the material, or from the laminated layer?
Until I saw them next to each other I wondered if it was the lighting too but they truly are VERY different. I wish I’d taken a video. The Neverfull had way more painted on silver threads than the Speedy. I’d have preferred the darker tone of the Speedy if not for that but without as much of the silver it was missing the shimmer.Maybe it

The iridescence was more noticeable in the lighter/more silvery shades. I think most of the effect comes from the white parts of the material but the laminated layer might have a tiny bit of effect as well. Here’s some close ups to show you what I mean.
Thank you! I can definitely see that the lighter parts are reflecting the iridescent effect. Now I'm really torn. I prefer the darker shade but also want to maximise the shimmer. A mid-tone, like you said, would be perfect. This is annoying, I'll have to check out the singular display pieces in-store to decide.
Yes, the mid tone definitely is the way to go. Thanks for the pics.
My Alma BB is here, very hard to spell the name Broderie Anglaise ??
I’m impressed that a replacement piece reached me fast

The bright pink is very pretty irl!! Any issues? The leather is supposed to be more “wrinkly” than the usual? Is it because it’s lamb skin or something more delicate kind?
I like it too but the wonderful CAs in our land dont even know if it’s ever gonna come in to sg.
I think it’s an Euro exclusive. @23adeline mentioned that it’s brought in specially for her. Perks of a VVIP…I like it too but the wonderful CAs in our land dont even know if it’s ever gonna come in to sg.
I don’t think it’s lamb skin, the leather is wrinkled because they didn’t put any stuffing while transporting the bag, I’m going to stuff it and observe, hopefully it will become a bit smoother
Oh thank youhow wonderful is this bag
And you write perfectly its name !
Your wonderful CA should tell you honestly, they knew from the beginning it’s not for Sg and Malaysia, my online CA is very kind, she sent special request to help me get itI like it too but the wonderful CAs in our land dont even know if it’s ever gonna come in to sg.
I am lucky occasionallyI think it’s an Euro exclusive. @23adeline mentioned that it’s brought in specially for her. Perks of a VVIP…
My Monoglam Speedy 20 is here
The silver/glam effect is perfect for me. Couldn’t had wished for a combination that I would be happier with.
However, the aligment, piping and zipper is terrible I will keep it anyway since I don’t have energy to do returns and re-orders. I think it won’t bugme too much (I actually have LV pieces worse than this).
