Thanks guys...I guess i'll keep the Mono cause i do love it. I did order the pouch from Nordstroms that was recommended in another post here on tpf. So i cant wait to receive it so I can wear it with the longer chain strap.
I LOVE the Damier, I usually prefer the Damier over the Mono & for me the plate does not take away from the beauty of the bag. Either way, the bag looks good on you so maybe keep this one and make the Damier your "true" final LV purchase. (Yeah, uh huh, your "final" LV, ok, o-tay, yup, whatever you say....)
Ooh what pouch is that? Congrats on your new Eva! It is lovely on you.
