Nice! So excited for you! We are heading there! Which store did you visit?
Thanks! Fashion Mall stand alone LV boutique, not Neiman Marcus LV (they're in the same mall) hope I'm not confusing you. I highly recommend Danna, Hanfei and Viviana. They are fantastic sales associates and patient-not pushy. That means a lot to some of us. They allow you to take ALL the time you want, trying on, stuffing the bag, changing straps etc...and they don't try to push store items on you that your not interested in. My husband was impressed with the service we received. He only had great things to say also and he PAID for my bags LOL!! So that should tell ya something. Fashion Mall is in between ***** international and Treasure Island. I hope you have a great time!! We sure did.
 
Here it is ! I purchased a Speedy 30 damier ébène with bandoulière this month. I had been wanting a Speedy B for a looong time. I only had the Speedy 25 and the Delightful (both monogramme).
It's my first damier ébène so I'm not sure how to wear it yet although I've already taken her out (it's so easy and lightweight). I think the colours do not work the same with de as with mono.
My husband is clearly not a damier ébène fan so I wonder if I won't end up selling her for the same thing in monogramme ou damier azur. If he keeps hating it each time we go out together...
BUT : I bought her second hand and I think it was a bargain for I only paid 580e !!! When in France the retail price is 995e. I've got the two keys the padlock and the dustbag. 20170303_195805.jpg 20170303_195815.jpg
What do you think ?
 
My "new to me" adele wallet! Got it on eBay for a great price. It was a bit of an unexpected purchase, but I love it!
I feel like you don't see this wallet as often as some others but I really love it!

I'm eyed this a few times. Can you tell me if the wallet gets real bulky once you put your cards in? TIA

If you bought it preloved you will get the same price or even a better one when you sell it.. I would wait 1-2 weeks and use her as often as you can.. if you still don't like it put it on sale with a higher price as you bought it and then see if you still wear it or not..if you get the higher price then sell it...
DE works best with darker clothes like black dark jeans or even with beige and red.. it is also enough if you wear only one dark thing like dark jeans with a white top or dark/black coat shoes with something lighter or more colourful top etc.. try some different outfits maybe you will like it.. I wear it more with dark or beige /brown clothes and colourful beige clothes with mono..

Hi Tulip
I do not own anything in Rose Ballerine (although I love the color) but when I was picking up the purse my SA and I were comparing the colors and the best way to describe Rose poudre is that it is a true pink where rose ballerine is a little softer a little more pale. Both colors are stunning. I am short so the bb is the very proportionate for me. I do not think I would like it in the MM size- I think the color might be too much. But because Rose Ballerine is softer I think that is why it works in the MM size.
Thank you for your thoughts! :hugs: My Rose Ballerine in Empriente leather is the prettiest LV pink I've ever owned. If Rose Poudre is darker it must be quite lovely. I'm going to carry that handbag some day (I think). I don't know, since I haven't used it, possibly I really should sell it. Hard choice!
 
You could probably take the Saumur to the store and have them replace all the vachetta leather. A girl on here did that with a backpack and it looked beautiful and brand new!
I have thought about it, but not sure if the canvas is in good enough condition to justify the cost of new vachetta. May take it to LV to get their opinion and a price quote on the work. Also starting to think it's on the large side for an everyday bag, I think the 30 would work better for me, so it will probably be better to spend the money on that, rather than fixing the 35.

Got another pre-loved LV piece today; a Vernis Zippy wallet in Amarante. Love it!:heart: At $200 I think it was a good buy.
