So I actually tried. I got some leather and got a dooney strap and dyed them black. Would like everyone's opinion. View attachment 3523168

And I agree with RXBags....give it a shot and see how you feel about wearing it?

I, too, am willing to wear things not specifically marketed to men. I carry an Hermes Evelyne bag frequently. While many would claim this is a "unisex" bag, on the Hermes website, it is marketed as a woman's bag. This doesn't stop me from proudly wearing it.

While absolutely I think you have a right to wear what you like, I think the style and color are feminine, where as I don't find the Evelyne bag particularly so.

If I saw you wearing this bag, I would think you were holding your wife, girlfriend, mother's bag. Don't get me wrong...I'd still look. :)

I'm only saying this because you asked. It's not my intention to hurt.

No. I completely understand. Believe me I do. Just trying to make it work. I wish I was just able to keep it as a collectors piece without the pressure of hurting anyone.
 
I love the multi color and have recently purchased a vintage zippy coin pouch (not purse lol) in multi color black with bright pink interior. I use it everyday and am proud to do so, as I value the heritage of LV and pieces such as mine that are mint condition are rare nowadays. So I say go for it, love it, value it and to hell what others think.
 
I fell in love with this Bandouliere Race when I saw the Cruise 2017 collection. After calling Vuitton several times, I finally managed to reserve one of the three pieces in the U.K. in my favourite LV boutique in Harrods' Superbrands department, and picked it up yesterday.

Here it is, modelled on my Fendi Peekaboo! I'm glad I held off from getting the Fendi StrapYou and got this instead. :)

I wasn't planning on purchasing anything... but I went for a classic that I had never seriously considered before: Keepall 45 Macassar. A lot of guys here, like @Dorf , make a good case for this bag! So thanks for your input! Also, I asked for a drawstring dustbag and the SA obliged, which was very nice. View attachment 3526515

This was my very first Louis Vuitton. So so beautiful.

A classic! Congrats :) It seems like it still has the soft untreated leather.

Do you still use it?

Use it? Absolutely :smile: I am 5'11, so I use my Keepalls as everyday bags. And if I would have statistics, it would probably show that the Macassar is still the favourite. I usually use the brown ones (Macassar, Classic Mono...) during the summer, and the "cold" ones (Cobalt, Graphite...) during winter. But this was the first one. It has a special place in my heart :heart:

Congrats fabuleux! My partner gave me a Keepall 45 in Macassar last Christmas and he's giving me another bag in Macassar this Christmas - will post photos on Christmas Day.
