Got myself an Alma bb when I transit through Italy airport. It was an impulse purchase as I got a little fomo since its tax free in the airport. The alma bb has been in my wish list for a very long time, but I never pull the trigger as I find the strap a little too long. However, the leather version is simply stunning and doesn't scream LV, and I thought why not get it first rather than regret it later. I was thinking of pairing it with another black strap which I purchased it couple years back.
Still not sure if I made the right decision :P

@moi.shopaholic.dory congratulations on your beautiful alma:loveeyes: Wear her in good health and happiness:hugs:
♡ to share my new purchase in Nov! This is totally unexpected haul as i am waiting for side trunk. Went to boutique last Sat, to try out the side trunk and browsing the denim collection. The grey washed off black denim is very beautiful print At first keen in onthego design but is smaller than usual, cannot hold my laptop. The neverfull is more practical holds more, the color and silver hardware matches well! Needless to say, I bought it on the spot but requested for item to be delivered today.

Just received! The staff really kept my item dry and safe from heavy rain. The material feel sturdy but I have ordered bag organiser from Samorga and hope to receive it soon , so I can start using the bag. It will be my work bag,to hold my laptop, water bottle and maybe a set of clothing for my gym after work. So thrilled!

Congrats on this little beauty! I got this same bag last year and it may be my favorite Alma BB. I also have it in epi and DE. I love that it’s a teeny tad bigger than my other two and that little extra room is great. I love that the strap is wider and more comfortable than the other ones. I wished I had also bought the Neo Alma in cherry berry or crème when it first came out a few years ago (and was under 2K USD then :lol:). It isn’t as popular as the classic ones like the black epi so it’s a bonus that even fewer people are out carrying it.
 
so my world tour speedy and victorine finally came! I know the bold use of stickers isn’t for everyone but I absolutely LOVE them both so much! I can’t stop staring at the speedy!

Also did pick up my Christmas animation bandeau but it’s so long so figuring out how to picture it in its full glory!

I'm not a big blue denim person, but I'm down with grey denim with black trim! And some very comfy boots for my wide feet.

I love the speedy. Does it feel like denim or is it different? The website describes it as jacquard. Do you think it will hold up well. I’m not near a store and am considering ordering the denim speedy or On the Go.

Yes, it does feel like denim, but not denim you would want to wear. It's a sturdier, thicker type of denim compared to today's denim for jeans. Maybe more like a jean jacket from the 80s? :lol: It's a good thing though- helps it keep the bag's structure and yes, I do think it will hold up well. I was a little nervous myself to buy it before even checking it out in person, but I love it and have no regrets/concerns. I had to look up jacquard- that just means that the LV logos/motifs are just woven into the denim, not printed on.

Thank you so much for sharing.❤️ I’m really excited about this collection.

So funny story but not so funny. My local store had the canvas nano speedy in stock. I dropped in and told SA I want to purchase the bag. She had to have it pulled from stock and told me to have a seat and would be about 15 min because they were very busy. After about 10 min she brings me to the counter to point out that another man just purchased the bag. Womp. So I came home with the empriente one because I always wear black. However, now I am not so sure!! OY I am thinking the bottom of the bag might get dirty unless I hang it on a bag hook. Also, can anyone tell me how bi-color leather wears? The leather feels a bit thin to me, and there is no structure on this one. I have owned other empriente leather pieces, but this leather definitely is softer.
