I picked up a secondhand Totally MM in DA this spring and carried it non-stop until fall came around and I started craving a darker color. That bag is just a perfect lightweight take anywhere bag! I have a six year old and whenever I'm out with him I always have extra snacks, an activity book and crayons so I rarely carry anything small:lol: These days I'm back with my black epi Neverfull.
So with you! I am so into the the black epi leather lately, so underrated and a beautiful leather!!
 
I completely agree! I have three pieces in it (the Neverfull plus a speedy And a small card carrier) and I just adore it. Normally I like bags with less structure, but I’m kind of obsessed with Epi!
Me too! I am so obsessed with Epi!! I was always a huge fan of monogram, but as I am getting older mono is still great but the epi leather fits so well into my wardrobe.
 
The pochette metis... But then I had to get a 2nd, because I loved it so much!

I've been toying with the idea of getting a speedyb 25 but I'm not sure because I love the metis so much I'm afraid I won't enjoy it. Decisions, decisions.
I loved the speedyb 25, but recently sold it to get the Boite Chapeau MM. But the speedy b 25 is a great bag, but I am carrying smaller bags since my little one is going into pre-teen years, so less items to carry :smile:
 
Thank you, it is! I guess it depends how you define purse peace as I LVoe most of my bags but use them for different occasions or different times of the year....
So true, I know I have three in rotation: work bag, errands bag, meeting with friends bag (not been in use for a year now) and have those in two types of materials: epi and mono. Was just curious on the bags that others are carrying, I see so many venturing out from the mainstream bags and growing into their own style and finding purse peace by not following mainstream influencers.
 
Speedy 25B in DE. It’s been going everywhere with me since I got it last year. I didn’t think I would love it so much!
I second this!
I love this bag so much that I think I’m going to let go of several others that I just don’t use. Last night I decided to change into my Neonoe but nope! Didn’t like the way the bag sits on me, so I think it’s time to sell. Speedy b 25 in DE has given me purse love!
 
To me, purse peace comes with having a collection that meets your needs, suits your wardrobe, lifestyle etc. I am almost there, just need/want a black structured purse(maybe Alma) and a knockabout cross body(epi or DE). It's kind of nice to have a couple of things on your wish list actually, makes it fun to search!

I always like to hear what others are carrying..it’s interesting to hear what members like and don’t like for bags...:smile:
 
Nearly a decade ago when I started purchasing luxury bags (slowly and carefully), I thought I was already contented with my Neverfull DE which I used nearly every time I head out with my firstborn. I had all the diaper and travelling experience with that bag, along with my daughter. When I fell pregnant the 2nd time few years later, I could not forget about the Alma PM in Amarante that I had to splurge. Again, I thought that was it - this bag will follow me forever on every special occasion. I always love how beautiful a Lady Dior looks, but I could not justify the price and I do not think my lifestyle suits that clunky and matron-y bag, so the Alma PM in the vernis leather was perfect for me.

When the Pomme de Amour colour was released, my jaw dropped. I rushed to the nearest store with my husband, and he said "oh my, what a beautiful colour. You must have it, and I will buy it for you as a push present." Who was I kidding if I were to resist? I do not even remember if I brought my wallet that day as I dropped everything just to head to the boutique to get the bag. With my husband's generosity, my heart was filled with love and when the purchase was made, I felt that my happy aura was contagious for miles that day! I went home, and hug both my Alma PMs. My growing daughter started to speak, and she said she wanted the red bag. I knew my husband and I did the right thing!

After that, I never had any other interests in their new releases, and I even gifted the Amarante to my sister because I no longer feel as much love as I had before. I thought I will not be buying anymore LV until I saw the Pochette Metis in the reverse monogram. It changed everything, and I started to believe that there is no such thing as purse peace. I hunted for that bag for a long time, and finally, I managed to secure one last year. Was I contented? Yes. Did I sleep well, knowing I have finally gotten what I wanted? Definitely. Am I browsing LV website every now and then to check out new releases? Also yes. Especially these two years.

What is purse peace?
