Hi! I just purchased the neverfull in DE, which I think is so practical and am loving.

But I now can’t seem to stop thinking about getting a monogram bag.

I had a tough time deciding between monogram and DE when getting the neverfull because I have a lot more DE in my collection and thought the bag would be more work appropriate as well as it’s less of a logo.

I’m now debating getting the petite Noe instead of another neverfull to change it up. I’m a bit intimidated by the vachetta at the bottom, buuut I think the DE neverfull would be more my daily bag. Plus the slight $40 increase in the neverfull. I’m not rushing this purchase more contemplating the next one.

What is everyone’s thoughts on the bag and ease of use? My all time favorite bag is the Speedy B 25 in DE as a reference.
 
I love the Noe in monogram (I have BB though). I put Apple on my vachetta, but have seen videos and pictures of people not treating the leather and it looks great. Some people are just more careless about putting it on the ground or on dirty/wet surfaces and that is why there are so many with dirt and water marks on the preloved market.

I also love my Speedy B25 in DE :smile:

That was my initial thought when I purchased my NF in DE and I can't be happier with my decision. This is is my most used bag given that I can just throw anything and everything inside a NF and with a toddler, I can't be bothered to think of caring about the vachetta.

I have a Speedy 30 in monogram which I mostly use for travel. It is such a beautiful material that I thought I needed to have when I bought the bag. I am not afraid to expose it as I wanted to see the leather darken through time. I recently learned about the patina champ method which I did on my Speedy and it now looks even prettier.

I am actually on the hunt to purchase a Petit Noe in monogram as an alternate bag for my NF. It's a classic piece and I'd love to personally see the leather turn into a lovely honey color.

I love hearing this! I was thinking it was just me. I like the Noe Noe, but there’s something about the traditional look that appeals to me and makes it more different than the neverfull in monogram, which most people have too.

The new designs are trendy (and probably will turn out to be a classic) but I’d rather purchase one that I would still love using after several years. My NF and Speedy have been with me for 12 years and 5 years, respectively if I remember it correctly.

I like the look of the Noe Noe but for me it doesn’t work, I don’t like drawstring bags as much anymore or a bottomless pit for items. I think this one definitely needs an organizer insert. But i would suggest changing up your next bag with a different pattern.

‘yes, I’d definitely use an organizer. I typically do with my speedy and getting one for my neverfull too.
