I don’t know where you are located, but there are some PS11 on sale on yoox.com. Even two tiny PS11 that aren’t in production anymore. Very cute, thanks to the square shape.
Thank you! I’ll take a look.

And I love the DE speedy b25. Just may feel I’m attracting some unwanted attention due to the logo in my area. I have never seen an LV in my hometown, and we have had some scams/crimes lately.

You might be surprised. I'd never seen LV in my home town, then at a neighbors a few doors down she had a graceful. I was paranoid about using my never full at school, but I ran into a long time teacher after a year or so carrying her well broken GM. The DE print isn't as loud as the monogram and so most people won't even know it's LV.

I recommend the Celine Nano Luggage. It’s hands free, roomy, logo free, zip top and very well made. It also has a removable strap. My second and third choice would be the Gucci Disco and the Givenchy mini Pandora. I have a couple of colors of each of these bags and I love how practical and low key they are (especially the Celine and Givenchy).

I LOVE the mini Pandora. Fits so much for its size. Very edgy too. I wish I could buy one in another color (I have it in black)

I love Celine. The nano luggage in black is so cute and I like how it can be dressed up or down. The nano belt bag is also high on my list. Gucci disco was one of the first bags I was initially considering. Thank you.

Edit- how comfy is the nano luggage as a crossbody?
 
Do you know LOEWE? I love the small Puzzle, it's very roomy and the leather is durable and not sensible at all. You can wear it as a "dog walking bag", but also as a bag for dinners and evenings. The quality of LOEWE is stunning! No logos, so you will have it for many years, and it's not often to see like LV.
I definitely need a bag that can take me from dog walks to going out to dinner. Thank you.
 
Some wonderful recs so far!

I've examined my current purse collection again and narrowed down my needs. After thinking more, I've narrowed it down to a lightweight small to medium pebbled black leather bag that transitions from day to night and has a crossbody strap. Prefer a top handle and gold hardware. I also would like some type of top closure for security, whether it be magnet or zipper. Minimal logoes. Budget ~2k

Compilation of recs for reference -
Peter Nitz, Mila jito
Goyard Varenne
Alma BB
LV neo noe
Delvaux tempete
Ferragamo Viva Vara
Sac de jour
Loewe puzzle
Pochette metis in empreinte
Evelyne
YSL college
Givenchy antigona mini
Speedy B25 DE
PS11 or PS1 tiny
Givenchy mini pandora
Celine nano luggage
Gucci disco

I think the Celine nano luggage, Celine nano belt bag, or YSL sac du jour would best suit my needs so far..

Hope you find the perfect bag for you! I'll throw in another suggestion that meets much of your criteria. Have you looked at the current season Tod's Di bag? I have one in the mini size and love it.

That looks like a very practical and nice bag! I especially love that it zips at the top and has metal feet. Thank you!

Honestly its better if you dont start or you wont stop lol. Gucci could be a good starter bag. I know they have some designs without the GG. If chanel was not expensive now adays it would have been a good brand. I hope your first high end bag is from thr store just so you can try it. I remember howhappy I am after I walked out LV with my very first high end bag.

The nano luggage is very comfy worn crossbody. That’s how I wear it 95% of the time. I carry it top handle for a dressier vibe. I own the souris color but black with gold hardware is on my wishlist.
