Hi all!!

I need some input before I go crazy. I was recently in Italy and purchased a LV Vanity PM for $1,800 USD. It was an impulse buy because it is such a hard to get bag. I did like it when I first saw it months ago, but I would NEVER pay the US price for it because it’s so small and not leather. Buying it has prompted me to get rid of some bags in my collection because they sit in my closet. I got the Vanity PM because I currently use my Neverfull, but I wanted a smaller bag for every day. I have a Favorite PM, but it’s not really a bag I like that much. I use it for date nights and when sight seeing on a trip. The Vanity PM would take its place. The bags in my current collection are two Neverfull’s— DA & DE, a Speedy B 25 in monogram, a Speedy 30 in DE, Favorite PM, and Vanity PM. I am thinking about selling the Favorite and Speedy B 25 that I never use or selling the Favorite, Speedy B 25, and Speedy 30, then purchasing a Speedy B 25 in DE. I could count on one hand how many times I’ve used the Speedy B due to the vachetta. The Speedy’s are a bit sentimental as my fiancé purchased them so there’s also that factor. What are y’all’s thoughts? I’m trying to limit my collection to bags that I will use and are fully functional for every day and all weather. Do you think the Vanity PM can take the place of my Favorite PM? Have any of y’all sold sentimental pieces? Thanks in advance!!!!!

All speedy's are classics. Enjoy the vachetta leather quality. It is soft, ages to a nice patina. I carry currently my Neverfull Damier Ebene MM as a tote and my Speedy 25 Damier ebene as a purse, sometimes using Tivoli PM the purse which I have since 2009. It has a lovely patina. The vachetta handles are so soft and silky compared to the handles on my ebene speedy. The LV Vanity PM is adorable. But on the other hand, the Favorite or the Speedy B's are bags you will never get tired of. I wouldn't be able to part with any of them.all of them. Enjoy!

From what your saying, if the vanity pm would take take the place of the favourite PM and you hardly use it then I would sell that first and see how you feel abt the speedies. I would also be inclined to sell one if they speedies as there is duplication there if you really felt like you wanted to cull it further. After buying LV for all these years, I always try and use what I have and if I haven’t reached for it for a while I will reasses and sell it. I feel that bags and slgs are meant to be used so it would be a waste to just hoard them. I also try not to buy duplicates of being unless I absolutely love that style. I try to buy bags that are different so just can use them for different occasions. A purpose for each bag, so I can justify it otherwise if there are doubles for the same purpose I usually would sell. This is what’s in my collection now:
- mini psm mono backpack
- neverfull mm de
- speedy 30 de
- new wave noir heart bag
- reverse mini boite chapeau
- Siena pm
- nano turenne
- pochette voyage
Hope that helps. I also love the vanity and hope to get it one day. It’s a stunning bag, with so many nice designs and features. Great choice!

You’re right! It’s so hard to get past the vachetta mental block.

Thank you!! The price of the Vanity really made me re-evaluate my collection and how much certain bags just sit there ‍‍‍
