So I ended up keeping it (return window ended yesterday). I was really debating hard on the last day. Honestly if it wasn't made so perfectly then I would have returned it. But there really isn't any flaw that I can see and I worried that if I returned it and changed my mind, the next one won't be as nice. I just hope it won't end up sitting in my closet (whenever I buy a 2nd of anything, I never use it as much as the first). I told myself I would sell some of my unused SLGs to make up some of the costs and maybe my epi Felicie that I never use. And this is the last bag of this size I will buy!Thank you. Yes, I thought so too, that the clean lines were important for the leather version. I really hope that the next one that comes in is well made.
Let us know what you decide!

I have a Pochette Metis in empreinte noir, but I have been lusting after the tourterelle/turtledove color. Back in October, I bought a Pochette Melanie in the turtledove because I couldn’t justify buying the same bag in another color. Six months went by and I kept thinking about it, or thinking about getting something else in the same color, but thanks to some lovely members here who reassured me to get what I love, I decided to get the PM! I was able to order it through the LV store inside Neiman Marcus, and it came the next day. I am so happy I decided to go for it.
Congrats hun! I think the most important thing is that this bag makes you happy
And of course I love this bag also! Twinning!
May is my birthday month. I prepare a nice gift for my self.
I am so happy it has silver hardware, I can use my pretty charm.

This was supposed to be an April 2021 purchase when I visited my local store. Alas, there was quality issue and the store never received another one thereafter. Got lucky on the website a couple of days ago while at work and had to abandon my workstation to place my order online 
Love the stunning Scarlet shade and glad that LV finally uses polished zipper pull instead of the matte ones, looking as though they were scratched. Not sure if it's just mine but the zipper track is not as smooth as the one on my Game On Toiletry Pouch 26.
The red on red is TDF. Hoping LV will release an all black Empreinte Toiletry Pouch 26

Congrats on your beautiful birthday bag — enjoy
Congrats on getting such a beautiful piece!
It’s different enough from the Canvas version, I think you will get to use it a lot too!I am still hunting for a perfect one. The next one that my SA got hold of had really bad scratches on all the hardware, so she ordered a new one now, which I already paid, and I really keep my fingers crossed.

You keep it a secret from all of us 
Hush hush. You were so quiet, I thought you had given LV a break. I’m so happy for you though! This bag is gorgeous, and the charm goes perfectly with it! I love it!
It’s stunning! Did you have to preorder? It’s the perfect bday gift for you! Happy Birthday for May! Enjoy your gorgeous bag, and it’s adds beautifully to your speedy collection!

Today I have another 3 unboxing 
This time , items were couriered out from my CA ( physical store) . I don’t want to go to LV store because Covid19 cases in my country increased a lot lately.
New Wave Multi Pochette in Brume
Wave travel case
Scala pouch
I returned my old Mahina Stellar few months ago because there was a lot of ‘fibres’ came out from the top part of the leather, it doesn’t have the leather edge glazing . Initially,I wanted to use my store credit to buy the Alma BB with monogram metal studs, but after seeing the pic posted by member here, I changed my mind. I like this Brume colour New Wave MP , and the Scala reminds me of my first Mahina bag which was white Solar PM. I returned that bag because LV repair centre ruined the leather when they tried to change the cracking glazing ....
And the travel case, I just want to get it as a display on the island of my dressing room next time .

They all look good on you, enjoy! Great idea to display the travel case in your dressing room. These travel cases are too beautiful to keep them hiddenToday I have another 3 unboxing

I am waiting for the Watercolor travel case too, I just informed my CS I want it quite recently, hopefully it’s still available.
Thank you for your kind wishes.How did you manage to score this one @balen.girl ?
No pre order at all. I just walk in to store. It’s really weird how LV works on me. They canceled my pre order, but I scored few hard to get item without pre order. From now on I will just walk in and try my luck. My plan is to get neo noe empreinte. But I guess she need to wait longer.
Thank you for your kind wishes.Congrats and happy birthday month!
