I find it addicting. I also have two pieces on layaway currently. Both LV.

Congratulations! This classic cutie is next on my wishlist. I’m hoping to visit NYC for my bday in November to get mine from the 5th Ave store, too, but if the trip doesn’t happen, I’ll just get it from my local store. Enjoy yours!

Unboxing my first purchase from 24S . The bag reached me within 3 working days , amazingly efficient !
I was eyeing for a bag for the longest time ever before I pulled the trigger, because I was a bit worried about buying from 24S which is so far away from me
This Vert lining wasn’t available here , we only had the red lining Monogram Lace which looks like BBQ grill .

Here is my Monogram Lace Alma BB

The keys and padlock are black
But I don’t like the way the hook the keys, so I took them out
There is plastic protector at the clasp to prevent scratches on black hardware
The 24S packaging is quite beautiful

@Sunshine mama I‘m twinning with you now but I definitely not able to sew different lining for my Ms Lacy like what you did for your Ms Lacy

Thank you for sharing that. I now have a new appreciation for this very creative bag. This is why I love LV, no other designer comes close to their creativity, each bag is a work of art.

Gorgeous!!! I am now envious of both you and SSM . I also have been eyeing this bag forever it seems but am trying hard to stay on ban island (for real this time ). I love 24S. Their carrier to the US (DHL) is very fast as well, usually within 5 days for me. Congrats and enjoy .

Oh my gosh! It's an honor to be twinning with the Queen of LV!
Isn't 24S great?
How do you like the bag so far?

I know what you mean with the Ban Island! I would love to be twinning with some of your bags too!

Ladies & Gents, I need to vent, please bear with me. I am on a roll willa Milla in veau leather, I found one in this gorgeous green color in excellent condition. To my big disappointment the corners are heavily worn and the bag significantly lost its shape. The bag is in very good condition at the best.
This supposed to be my Christmas present, but I am torn what to do. Keep it and ask for partial refund? Try to repair it at LV?
What would you do? I prefer a return. Sounds reasonable to me, even though my heart is torn, of course!
Thank you, my "co-sufferers" of this luxury passion, for listening!

@AndreaM99 wear and tear on the corners is bound to happen sooner or later imho. I would keep it as it is a beautiful addition to your beautiful collection Just wanted to add that the only way a bag would stay pristine is if it sat in a closet.
Did they list it as excellent?
