Hello!! I’m trying to decide on my next LV bag that will compliment my collection but also be a good everyday. I’m trying to decide between the Speedy B in DE, Pochette Métis in Reverse or Gracefull MM in I don’t know which print [emoji854]

So far I have a Neverfull GM DE, Neverfull MM in Mono and an Eva in Mono.

I’m leaning towards the speedy b 25 DE because it’s so carefree and would be super practical for chasing around two little kids. I love speedys. My first LV was a speedy 30 mono but I sold it to my best friend so she’s in good hands. So its fine, everything’s fine! [emoji24]

I had the Graceful MM in mono but returned it for the Neverfull MM in Mono. I kind of regret it but had my heart set on another Neverfull at the ti. I love that the Gracefull is more of a handbag than a tote. Thinking maybe I still want the Graceful MM in DE but am worried it’s too similar to what I already have? I love the DA as well but I’m just thinking that has got to be the worst idea with two little kids lol!

The pochette Métis in reverse is just to die for. I love it but I’m worried it will be a little too small for my needs and it’s hard to get.
Help!!

I wanted to get speedy B in DE too but since I have neverfull mm in DE and favorite mm in DE, i went for PM reverse. It’s honestly your call....based on your collection, a reverse would be like a new canvas to your collection since it’s different in a way than the mono. Graceful mm looks similar to a neverfull in my opinion. I’d say go for reverse! I think reverse is worth the hunt! But if you feel you need a more bigger bag then go for speedyB. :smile:
 
The PM is definitely too small if you have two kids. The Graceful is a much bigger bag, as you know, but still not as hands free as a Speedy bandouliere. I have a non-b Speedy 25 that is a good size if I want to carry a bit more, but the zippered opening can be snug. The Speedy B 30 is even more practical if you want to jump up in size. I got my Speedys before the bandouliere days, and I absolutely would have gotten the strap option for both if it had been available.

I had the PM in reverse and I absolutely hated it especially when I was out and about with my three little ones. It was to fussy and I learned I don’t do well with bags that have dividers....especially when I need to just shove something in and go! My speedy b25 is hands down my absolute favorite bag in my collection. It holds what I need and more but is super carefree and versatile. I love damier ebene and in fact my entire collection is DE with the exception of my bum bag and some SLGs. For a long time I kept trying to force monogram in because I felt I had to but I learned for my lifestyle DE just works best and in my mind it comes down to the bags being different in my collection not the print. But what you love ❤️
 
Get the Speedy B! I have the Métis in reverse and only struggle with the Glazing and cracking. A Speedy b looks more classy, also you have more ways to wear her. The gracefull don’t include a strap. So a Speedy b is more carefree :)

I'd say Speedy B as well! I love the PM reverse but you may find it a bit small with two small kids. The Graceful is nice but not hands free like the Speedy B. Plus the Speedy B is a classic!

Such a good point about the dividers. I’m definitely more of a shove and go kind of girl [emoji23]
 
If your kids are still small, then speedyb is definitely the way to go. I had the monceau which is the predecessor to the PM and this bag is perfect when you don't need to carry anything for your kids, just for you. It was my go-to when hanging out with friends etc. When kids grow up and they start carrying their own stuff then PM, otherwise speedyb. I have the speedyb25 and b30 and love them both.
 
And I’m back!!!! Lol I love love love my speedy b25 in DE. Now I’m thinking about selling my neverfull mm in mono and buying a gracefull mm or pm in Mono. Like I said in my original post, I bought it and returned it because I had my heart on a neverfull. Neverfull is a classic but it’s also a tote and so common where I live. I also could sell and get a PM but I know I’ll miss having something larger in my collection. Should I sell my neverfull?

Keep it. The price is increasing every year so you might regret selling it now.
