I had my first orange bag moment! Another Keepall XS convert. I am basically a "long time lurker, first time buyer" when it comes to luxury brands - finally took the plunge with Loewe's Spirited Away collection and somehow I now own an LV?? This is how it begins ...

Anyway, I've only ever had my eyes on one (different) LV bag, but I saw this collection on social media and got kind of obsessed with it. Went in last last weekend and they had one I could play with, so I loaded it up and discovered it would take my Kindle and water bottle with loads of room to spare for the small stuff. Absolute Tardis of a bag. Went home to think on it and finally messaged the SA to order a new one for me and picked it up on Sunday. <3

The only improvement would be if they'd sold the blue fabric In The Loop strap and pink circular pouch separately. I would have bought them in a heartbeat! I loved the In The Loop and the pink soft trunk bags too but I couldn't justify the price when we all know there's always the next collection ...

Received this Speedy 20 this morning. I‘m not a monogram person and didn’t think of getting this initially . When I knew LV was about to have price increase, maybe due to FOMO , I told my CS I want to get one. At that time they actually could not take in orders anymore for this bag, but my Superhero CS said he would order one for me and he got approval for me to pay for it first before price increase .
Here is the bag, I saw the monogram pattern is a little bit not symmetry, other than that no problem. My CS told me to keep this bag first and will inform me if they are getting a better one. But I guess I’m ok with this .C70E3211-AB78-4C8B-828B-A926FE619093.jpeg1DB21EF2-D59D-4483-A1B7-91E5C33D5647.jpegA2DA9DA0-9F34-48B1-A2A7-868B30FFB693.jpeg
As everyone knows , the strap is really TOO short 0E92B751-235F-4119-9CFE-BAB256901457.jpeg
I brought this vachetta strap of my Mon Monogram Speedy to try 954AC3BB-F1D1-4487-8648-D734C022D03E.jpeg

New to me Mahina Muria in chocolate. I've been wanting a Muria for a long time. Absolutely gorgeous! I just need to remove the heat stamping and she will be perfect.

I'm officially on Ban Island now. Seriously this time!

Bwahahaha! :lol: I'll probably just swim around looking for the island but find the Buy More Stuff Island instead.

ETA: Was able to remove the heat stamping easily - just the embossing is left but it's not really that obvious.

I just purchased my first LV! The montsouris in empriente turtledove. The first one I received was perfect aside from a scuff mark on the front. I ordered a replacement and it also came with a scuff mark and I’m not super happy about the stitching on the Louis Vuitton stamp on the front. Is it normal for turtledove to have scuff marks on them? I’m nervous to order a third… and would this bother anyone else about the stitching?

I’m not overly picky but the scuff would bother me. I would exchange
