Hi,
I’m in complete bag dilemma and would like some pearls of wisdom if anyone has any they could throw my way… it a long story…
For many years I’ve owned and loved various vintage LV Bags, once my kids got a little older I sold off my vintage collection with the intention of buying a new Muria. But in the end decided to buy a Neonoe in black and monogram and an adjustable bandouliere strap, the decision was mainly based on the fact it was a more hard wearing material, as I still have young kids and more affordable, but shared a similar style, I was so happy with it. This was April 2022
10 months later I noticed the glazing edge was cracking and took it in for repair, it came back a month later reglazed. Fine.
Fast forward to April of this year and I noticed that it had happened again, I’m super careful with my bags and this time it had started to cause the canvas to split, so I reached out to LV, to my surprise they offered to replace the body and base canvas (not sure why the did the base) free of charge, so off it went again and they’ve just notified me it’s on the way home.
But im struggling to decide what to do, I think I need to sell it and choose something else. It’s basically going to be coming back to me brand new but I’m so worried it will keep happening, I don’t want big collection anymore just a smaller bag and a bigger bag. But I need that bigger bag I can’t afford to have one that spends so much time in repair. I have just bought a Neverfull BB Inside out to use as my little bag.
I don’t want huge just big enough to hold an iPad, phone, wallet and a pouch of essentials. That I could either use out with the kids or on my own for a longer day out.
I have been looking at Speedy 30 Bandouliere. I never used to be mad on the shape, but my daughter got a 20 for her birthday last year and it’s such a classic little bag. Will a speedy 30 be too big or awkward on me I’m 5’4 and quite petite. I’m guessing a 25 is just too small for my needs.
The Neonoe was fine on me so how do they stack up side by side.
I looked at petit noe also, but the amount of vachetta stresses me out. But I love the bucket bag shape too and the fact it’s designed to carry champagne bottles, I hope one day I have that need 🤣 Maybe if I could cope with the vachetta that would be a good option.
If anyone has any other designs they could suggest. I’ll try and get into store eventually, but I would consider buying preloved if I find the right bag.
Thanks ♥️
