Nice loot! I am with you on the Kusama pieces. I haven’t bought anything LV for over a decade but this collection drew me in super hard.I must add that these are my first ever LV bags n have never owned one before totally. The lure of Yayoi's collab definitely made me pull the trigger on LV finally lol

Just when I thought I don’t need anymore pieces from this collection, I see people post their goodies and I’m back to thinking maybe this one will be the last one from this collection
Personally, I love the OTG PM (and the cute coin purse that comes with it) so my vote is for the OTG. Since you liked the look of the thinner strap instead of the nylon strap, if you did end up getting the OTG that would be an easy solve.
Do you prefer open bags or zipped bags? I'm a fan of the lining pattern and colour so I also like how on the OTG the purple interior is more visible.
I think they're both super cute bags so I look forward to seeing what you decide!
I can go either way, open or zipped.
I think the OTG style lends itself as a better canvas than speedy. It’s like a self contained frame. It’s also sleeker, which I ultimately prefer.
But I went in with the intent of looking at the speedy 20. I think pumpkins on the 20 make it a whimsical and darling piece.
I definitely do not want both. I think more than one pumpkin piece is redundant, and I have already indulged too much in Kusama lol
Yay! Great decision to get on the band wagon ! It really is one of a kind collaboration, the sheer effort , scale of the art exhibition , creativity n designs that went into it is astounding. So happy we got to collect some of these iconic pieces to commemorate this artist
Already posted it in the April‘s happy purchases, but here is the Auguste notebook cover! I initially wanted the rod/white dotted Paul Agenda, but it really has a weird size and I do not want to be dependent on the LV refills which also only come lined. This one can fit A5 and I will put in a Hobonichi Cousin Spring calender. So excited when it comes and I can start using it!
Edit: for typo.
Yesterday I also went out with some friends and took my monochrome Keepall 25 with me which has been my bag of the weeks. It is so practical!
I really enjoy the Kusama pieces!

Right? It is so cute! I actually never saw this on the webpage, but learned about it in an unpacking video of a youtuber! I love that it is plain without that lock, so it can fit well into bags! I asked my SA about it and she actually had one! Hehe, only enabling here…
Where did you get it? My son is at the Soho store now and the SA told him there are only like 4 left in the US!!
Munich, Germany. Oh wow, then you probably need to decide quick…!
Found a romy in my local store and was super excited. CA wrapped it up, though not in Kusama packaging, and gave me the bag. Wasn’t till I got home and unwrapped it to see the pumpkin slightly scratched. See diagonal line under 2023, as well as several to the right of the writing. It’d be different if I made those scratches, but it’s a new item! Also, disappointed that it wasn’t in a Kusama dustbag. I know this is super hard to get and not really crazy about ordering online and laying out money for something that may not even be fulfilled. All thoughts appreciated! ☺️
That’s quite the scratch… you’re likely going to get more scratches since this is a v usable item… I don’t think it’s that hard to come by at this stage, perhaps have a new one ordered to the shop?
It might sound silly, but I would be disappointed to not have received the beautiful Kusama packaging. That scratch would probably bother me too. It is really hard to get now, so you have to weigh that in.
