MontaigneHi beautiful ladies, I am starting to research my next LV purchase and I am torn among these bags. I love the pink mono neonoe but I read about some of the glazing issues. I also like the montaigne and I wanted in pink but super scared that it will look terrible in a few years. Adding Blanche as well. Here’s some pics. What you all think? I am planning to buy around Xmas.
Thank you! The montaigne has straps and that’s one of the reasons I like itMy vote goes to Blanche, because I NEED a crossbody option ALWAYS. however, if this is not the case for you, I vote for montaigne in mono!
Thank you for your thorough feedback !! I do have the favorite mm in mono, two neverfulls, felicie in empreinte, speedy 30 and PM in empreinte ( no glazing issues). Yeah, the blanche might be out. I live in CA but probably moving to a place where I might have snow. The mono montaigne seems to be the best option.I'd say it depends on what lv bags you currently own and what you want from your next bag.
I bought neonoe in pink last year and no glazing issues so far. From what I've seen, all styles have some kind of glazing issue that is highly dependent on when it was made. On the montaigne clubhouse, there's chatter there about all empreinte montaigne sizes having glazing issues.
Of all the bags you mentioned though, I would get canvas montaigne. I live in a place with four seasons and I learned the hard way that I value bags that work for all seasons. I still have my pink mono neonoe, but I don't like how it pairs with my dark winter coats. I would never buy an all-pink bag because of that.
If I lived somewhere with no seasons, I would be happy with just the pink mono neonoe. I like blanche bb but my favorite mm is roughly the same size. I know that favorite mm is too small for me now, so blanche bb would also be too small. I'm not a fan of the exposed zipper on empreinte montaigne. Exposed zippers and/or zipper detailing is a fad. It's going to look dated in a few years imo.
Thank you! You mean the zipper compartment or the strap that holds the handles together?I vote for the Neo Noe too!
I have sold my Montaigne because the closure of the bag isn‘t comfortable at all!
