It happens to the best of us!! I never thought I would own a mono MPA because it seems so tiny. Plus no availability as well. But the more I see, the more pretty it looks. I finally managed to get one before the recent PI too. I wasn’t entirely sure if I wanted to keep it or just FOMO. I let it sit for the entire 30 days in the dust bag before deciding it’s true love and I really want it in my life. To be honest, even before the last PI, the price is really too high for the MPA but I evaluated it carefully and really really want it more than having it’s absence...
Glad to hear your enjoying your mono multi pochette. Would you still recommend after the pi? Any issues or things you aren’t fond of?

I think the PI made a lot of people think twice about getting it because both the khaki and rose Clair show availability for a long time (days of being available) for online purchase in my country. Usually it would be snapped up within minutes right? However, I have bought the maxi MPA at near this current PI price too. It has to be true love to buy it at this price.
The issue was it could fit limited stuff. But we already know when we want to buy that. I happened to downgrade (in terms of size) two items in my essentials recently - wallet and a phone cover - that helps in easing the MPA. I don’t deny I’m an “overpacker” and my previous phone cover was those bulky UGG kind. After trimming the sizes of the essential items, things fit better without the MPA sticking out.

most people would definitely have less problem using the MPA than me as they usually just use a smaller wallet like vecto, zippy coin, Zoe or just a cardholder. I insist on bringing a compact (and fat full wallet like a) Clea. I dislike changing wallets every day just to fit my bags kind, hence my minimum is the wallet needs to fit in any bag I own.

Just wanted to share my march purchase I made this week to celebrate my birthday.:cool: I was so sure I‘d come home with the black Neo Noe Empreinte, which I had been eying for months. But when my SA showed this beauty to me, it was love at first sight :nuts: Welcome to the family, Grand Palais Empreinte Bicolor!:heart:

What an awesome birthday treat!! Happy birthday and enjoy!
 
Been eyeing this handle soft trunk since early last week, my SA reserved one for me and only till today I had the chance to pop into boutique to try it. Too much things happened along the way since last week, glad I managed to go over.


What do you think ?
The leather is very sturdy and I like black hardware that go the overall look, so chic. Bought it and it will be delivered my home tomorrow. Will share close up tomorrow. My hands was full with my gym bag and another haul that I bought 2 weeks back and picked up today.

This is my 2nd item for month of March.
No more for now. :biggrin:

Technically this was a February purchase, however I just picked up my Coffret Tresor 24 yesterday. I combined Birthday and Mother's Day to purchase a piece that I have wanted for years now. Well actually I really wanted the Flower Trunk. Sadly, the price shot up to almost $7500 with the recent increase. I just could not justify the extra $2000. The next best thing was to send it to an LV artist for custom painting. I chose to go with peonies, and I think he did an amazing job. Pictures don't do it justice! I got the idea from another lovely TPF member who had purchased a trunk and placed flowers inside next to the Trunks book. I originally planned on putting flowers in the trunk but think I will just leave it as is. This will probably be my last LV purchase for the foreseeable future. I have more bags than I can rotate and it's time to give my wallet a well deserved break! Thank for letting me share!

Congrats! beautiful piece. My SA was showing me this piece earlier on and asking me to consider size 20 as well, to get a piece and get it painted before next PI. She said it will be a lovely piece since I am moving new home next year. I am considering to get one piece, I have no idea of what to paint on it yet if I am getting. Looking at your design really inspired me. I like something simple and classic that I can keep as a keepsake .. maybe lavendar as that is my fav flowers.

Thank you! I don't know where you are located, but if you are in the US I highly recommend George who is the artist in Houston. I don't know if you get to choose, but if so he is amazing! Lavendar would be beautiful!
