HELLO!! I am officially a LV addict. I bought my first LV right before a trip to Japan 2 years ago (BTW, it seemed like everyone in Japan had a LV! :rofl: ). I bought the Speedy 25. I LOVE it! The only downer is the handles get dark do to hand oil. I purchased a strap but returned it because the strap just did look right with the bag because the leather had already begun to turn.

Because of the handles I decided to get a shoulder bag so I went to Saks and decided on the Boulogne. I love this bad as well. I get more compliments on the Boulogne than the Speedy! What I like most about it is the adjustable strap. I recently purchased a vintage wallet from ebay...I can't wait to see it! I have been burned by ebay before so I was hesitant but this one looks vintage and authentic item number: 9321990710. I'll let you know how it turns out. I was burned on this item: Item number: 6883474492. It "could" be real but I just don't know so I asked for a refund and haven't gotten a response. I have asked my credit card company for a refund I'm done with ebay so I've decided I will go to Saks OR eLUXURY.
Now I am trying to purchase an Epi bag. I am wondering if anyone here has the black Speedy 25 with silver hardware. I "think" I'd love this bad. I plan to check it out at Saks tomorrow.

Sorry for the long first post.

Welcome to PF Jazz! I remember some ladies here have an Epi with silver hardware, try doing a search and see if anything comes up. BTW, the black Epi speedy is beautiful is you can't go wrong with buying it.

It's a GREAT country...it really is. I was there on business for 2 1/2 weeks so I got lucky. On the weekends I rode the subway and bullet train everywhere! Every city is lit up like Time Square! There was a LV store there but I didn't have time to stop there (b/c the party I was traveling with wanted to go somewhere else :rant: ), but I did catch a peek.

Anyways...thanks for the welcome!
