Sorry for the late reply, i was too busy . I saw that you already had the crooked speedy changed , happy for you

My Speedy wasn’t stuffed when I took the pictures as it came empty . The bottom is considered symmetrical I guessed, so I didn’t take any pics and I thought all speedy 20 are the same and hardly get a crooked ones like Metis View attachment 5787396

I always wondered what people were worried about with alignment. Now after seeing so many Monoglam pics on the forums then seeing yours, I understand. Yours is incredibly straight and perfect! Enjoy your new Monoglam Adeline and thanks for sharing as always!

Your pics are always so beautiful… not really a fan of the bag per se…but definitely a fan of your photography.

Thank you!

Thank you! The bottom looks perfect. My exchanged piece is still not perfect, so I ordered one from the website to compare. Hopefully I'll get a better piece. I really hate playing this game, which is one reason why I just don't bother with the hard to get items from LV, but I couldn't resist the Monoglam line.

Thanks ! I really love this Monoglam and I was thinking maybe my bags had to pass 2 levels of QC before coming to me
The warehouse staffs and my online CA all know that I’m very ‘fussy’
That’s why they informed me about the dented embroidered Alma and didn’t send to me as it didn’t pass their QC, and the delay in delivering Nano Speedy also because of the QC screening

Your bag is so beautiful - congratulations!!! I am hoping to exchange mine as well for a better constructed one...

Hoping the best for you!

 

[Sunshine mama]

It looks fabulous SM! Is the pipping and alignment better on this one? Esp Especially the bottom? Lol

Thank you. Everything is better on this one. Still not perfect, but doable.

 

[Sunshine mama]

I'm happy that you exchanged it for one that you liked and that you decided to keep it.

Thank you. Your pictures helped a lot!

 

[Sunshine mama]

What a gorgeous duo. I can see this is the lighter shade of the monoglam denim. Sorry to hear that it’s crooked. Did you want to exchange both of them? Or only wanted one?

ATM, I have exchanged the Speedy, and the CA ordered another PM so that I can exchange it. Meanwhile, all of the CAs at multiple stores told me to use it to see if it would straighten out. So I'm going to use it.

Thank you

Beautiful bags ! That collection is unique and seems very easy to match with everything. Congrats Sunshine mama

Thank you!
I'm not a blue person, but I needed some blue as soon as I saw these bags LOL!

Hi! Do you mind posting more pics of your new bag? Still debating what to do with my bag! Would you exchange my bag?

Glad to hear that you ended up with one that doesn’t bug you as much

Is this one also bluer?

I didn't even see the difference in color at the store because I was just too excited to find a better bag. Once I read @Kmora 's post, I compared the PM and the Speedy, and indeed the Speedy is a tad bluer. But when I start moving the 2 bags, the light reflecting the bags make them look almost identical. The Speedy only looks slightly darker in certain lighting conditions.

Just positioning the bags from L to R and vice versa makes the color appear same/darker.
I actually prefer the silvery hue, but the darker bag is pretty in its own way. And I like that the 2 bags are ever so slightly different.
Here are some pictures in 2 different lighting and different positions.

This is torture! They look great And the pics are gorgeous! Thank you for this eye candy.

I think the speedy looks best with a bluer/darker canvas while the pochette metis looks best with lighter and more silver. Which is the EXACT combination you have ended up with

I picked up my monoglam PM EW over the weekend. I had the option to choose between a silvery one and a bluer one. Went with the silver. So happy with it!

My special request Alma BB is here, this piece is okay generally , just need to stuff it to smoothen out the creases and the shallow dent from handle
I am going to the mall later , to pay for some Tiffany’s items before their price increase, coincidentally my LV store CA informed me my keepall 25 are here, so I’m going to ask her help to hook this Alma keys on the clochette

Another 2 more keepall 25 , the Aqua Garden and Denim
