New LV handbag options…opinions welcome!

[shillinggirl88]

Thank you for the comments/opinions thus far!

So, I will reveal I brought home the Odeon. I felt it filled a void - with my other LVs being satchel styles. I love the honey color of the leather and monogram together. However, again, I am questioning my choice. It seems quite functional too - but I so like the ladylike feel of a satchel.

I think my second choice would be Speedy 30B in DE and wondering if I should exchange but don't want to rush. I only purchased Odeon yesterday.

Another question for everyone...I have become partial to MIF since that is what I have. Two weeks ago my store had the Speedy that was MIF but yesterday did not. The CA that I worked with is so wonderful I bet she would find one. But wondering if they would just wait for one to come in and not check elsewhere. She has a contact in CA that seems to get her things for other clients. Do the CA's try to locate MIF items generally?

Thanks again for your responses so far!

I won’t be popular, but the Odéon feels like a messenger, it looks too big, the PM might work, but this is really like a huge flap messenger from the 00’s.
The Speedy and the Graceful both look very nice, the Graceful a bit nicer even (the Artsy in the background thinks so too, see how happy it is .
But the Alma shines, even though you were dressed casual, it didn’t feel too formal on you. The Alma is just stunning. Least practical? Yes. Most beautiful? Also yes.

Oh I LOVE the 2 Alma's I have and wouldn't mind another but having the vachetta on the bottom of the bag really scares me and seems less practical like you said. So think I will have to pass. The CA knew I liked it so reserved it to give me time to ponder Odeon.

Funny you mentioned Artsy. My friend thought I should try it and they had there. Way too big for me!
