Couldn‘t say it better! Thank you very much for these honest and true words!I have been buying designer handbags for over 20 years now, the focus wasn‘t always on LV, in fact there were many years where I did not follow the new collections and had „just“ the classic handbags from LV. I got into LV more since the pandemic with the Escale collection and since then it has been a rollercoaster of new releases, limited collections, getting excited about „hard to find items“, putting things on wishlists etc. I gotta admit I am a bit tired of this game, always fearing I will miss out even on the stuff I am not 100% in love with (match collection being a good example) and not being able to enjoy the things I buy because I am already looking at the next release. The Stardust Speedy 20 I was so excited about already feels „old“ because I am eyeing the Garden Collection Speedy. I am at a point now where I need to slow down because it almost stresses me, always this feeling, is something better around the corner? Doing a major declutter of my closet at the moment, got rid of/sold so many items recently because they don‘t excite me anymore.
Sorry about the long post but I definitely agree about sitting out a new collection here and there. I realised I am not a collector, I find joy in using the handbags, and with decreased opportunities to wear them (for several reasons) I need to slow down.
Congratulations! They are such beautiful and distinctive bags in your collection great comparison!Here is my Coussin MM in Navy. It's pretty dark, and I'm comparing it here to the large black 19.

I really liked your post @lovelyrita I take great pleasure in my bags and using them, I’ve been that way since I was a tiny child. I was the same as you during LV in the pandemic and working from home it was easy to get caught up in all of the releases and the process of trying to find the perfect bag or small leather good. My purchases have slowed as well. I took a brief detour to Chanel to get the two pieces I wanted there, and I got the fuchsia Maxy pochette because it’s my dog signature color and we use it for dog walksI have been buying designer handbags for over 20 years now, the focus wasn‘t always on LV, in fact there were many years where I did not follow the new collections and had „just“ the classic handbags from LV.

Had anyone seen the garden loop bag in person? I am gravitating more towards the silver colors, but I only use small bags. The zipper on the loop looks a little wonky from the photos I have seen so far.

Thank you, yes! I have been refreshing the site today, and just saw the helpful post from @travelbliss that it is now on the website! I’m not sure about this bag itself, but I love the canvas.Hi Nicole. Are you talking about this bag? I haven’t gone to the store yet but it looks so gorgeous. I didn’t realize it’s metallic blue according to the description on the website — not sure if that is correct.
