Name three LV items you thought you liked until you saw them IRL

[The Snorks]

and three items you weren't interested in until you saw them IRL:


I thought I liked, until I saw them IRL:

1.) The groom line: they are cute, but the image looks like it could rub off easily. Also, I could use my money towards another bag for the price of some of the wallets.
2.) The Mono Papillon 30: I like the shape of the bag, and the baby papillon, but the mono doesn't do the shape justice. The papillon is much cuter in the Damier canvas.
3.) Colored Vernis: I like the Framboise and Indigo colors, but for some reason, I am only attracted to patent leather if it is black; everything else looks like plastic to me.

I didn't like the following bags, until I saw them IRL:

1.) The MC Speedy: I hated the bag when I saw it on Jessica Simpson, but when the hype died down, and I saw it IRL, I fell in love with the bag.
2.) The Noe: I first associated the Noe with old ladies at the market, but I like the casual shape and the fact that it makes a sturdy, knock-around bag. It also looks great with a simple tee and jeans.
3.) The Denim line (Baggy PM): Hated, hated, hated this line when it first came out because I thought it was overpriced, but the bag is stylish and casual. I have gotten my money's worth, and the most compliments, with this bag.

 

[I LOVE LV]

Hmm, so far, only the mini lin line. But that's not because it doesn't look nice IRL but because the material seems not that durable.

I thought I like it but Nay:

1. Tikal GM : It's too fat and round for my taste

2. Amazone: Somehow I find the opening is very stiff

3.Multipli-cite : Bigger than I anticipated..

Didin't get groom not because I don't like but because I had to purchase bigger item from my wish list..

I didn't like it until I saw someone carry it IRL or pics:

Almost every single bags in the visuals thread LOL

The Damier Vaslav looked nice online, but the shape was quite awkward when I saw it.

Damier Geant line.. I liked the sporty look, but it was screaming LV much louder than the monogram.

I forgot about this bag..wasn't that impressed.

I think if I had money to burn, I would get mono lin speedy just for the sake of it.

Three items I liked but didn't after seeing them IRL (in no particular order):

1. Damier Knightsbridge - it was a cute bag but IRL it was a little too bulky/big for me
2. Inclusion keychain - it was pretty alright, but felt WAY too light to be worth $260 CDN!
3. Can't think of a third one...

Three items I didn't like until I saw it IRL
1. Cerises Speedy - It was so cute! And the girl carrying it wore it so well.
2. Sac Shopping - boyfriend's cousin wore it to family dinner, it was a little big but a nice bag!
3. Monogram in general - used to hate LV and hate monogram, now that I've seen it enough and own a few pieces I'm hooked!

Um..well I don't particularly like the silver hardware on the new brown epi and suhali colors, and I really don't like the Lockit bags at ALL.
Oh and I still can't stand the Ambre line from a couple years ago. It sounded a lot cuter before it first came out then I saw it and ugh.

 

[twinkle.tink]

I so Thought I loved....

The Neverfull, Trianon...was so set to buy!buy! buy!... didn't translate in person, because it is a pretty evpensive piece, ended up getting a bunch of stuff in it's place.

Rift, MC, print is too large for small item.

CITE GM, The red lining just seems wrong on the mono.

A few bags I thought I would like until I saw them in real life:

White MC Alma (and all almas): looked smaller than I imagined
Batignolles Horizontal: I really liked this online and on other members here but on me it was terrible
Cabas Mezzo: too boxy and uncomfortable, feels like a book under my arm. I still like it but Im just not as crazy about it as I thought I would be.

[PurseSally]

Thought I liked, but not for me IRL:

1. Jack & Lucie. The little heads seemed way too light to me and pricey. I still think they're cute though!

2. Popincort Haut - Too structured

3. Mono Speedy 25 (but I love the ones with a nice patina)

Wasn't sure about, but love IRL:

1. Damier Speedy 25
2. Batignolles Horizontal
