Thank you so much for your response! Really appreciate the reassurance! So happy that I got my hands on one of these bags!!
I’m glad you did too! I just love this little speedy - and I never thought I would want one. This beauty checks all the boxes for me. Hope you enjoy it, congrats!
Im with you. I didnt have much vachetta, but the past year ended up with several pieces. When I got the Speedy 20 I purchased the Apple Guard, but chickened out! I havent treated any of my bags, but im super careful when I use them(but I hate worrying) Setting some near the window.No not yet. I don’t know what to do with the vachetta handles. My first bag with so much vanchetta. Don’t know if I should spray it, treat it or patina champ. So confused and worried it will get stained. Any words of advise? And I still have to get some extenders too
Ive been listeningThank you my dear DrTr, I appreciate your supporthi MeepMeep - so glad you love your 20! It’s a fabulous little bag that holds so much. I also just wanted to express support and hope that things are getting better for you and your family, you’ve had a rough go!
(Why does everything happen at the same time! But time has begun the healing)I’m glad time is helping, but you’re right, it truly seems many difficult things come at once, or at least it feels that way because often when our resources are at their lowest, we get knocked down again. Here’s to continued healing, and to carrying your 20 beauty to help!Im with you. I didnt have much vachetta, but the past year ended up with several pieces.

I did it!! Little miss speedy 20 went out for the first time today ever since I got her early Nov! I was scared of ruining the vachetta so I've been putting off using her. Well, thanks to hubby who marked the first blemish on the bag!! The other day while the bag was on a table sunning near the window, hubby picked it up by the handles with his newly washed and still wet hands, thinking it was the bag I used that day 
I freaked out naturally, but it gave me the push to finally use her.
Here she is, getting ready to go out
On the last minute, I decided to dress up the handles with twilly as I was still feeling a bit paranoid of the vachetta getting more stains one step at a time!

Vachette is so delicate… I only have the A couple of bags with it, love the casual appeal of LV but I really must focus on furniture for now. Trying to finalize my formal dining room! Dining Chairs are so expensive !!!

I love your twilly! When my sister spilled coffee onto one of my vachette handles I nearly fainted. It’s just a bag, was her reply.I did it!!

Thanks! Omg, did the coffee stain the handles permanently?
After I screamed please put the bag down, my hubby's reply was yikes, how much would it cost me to fix what I just did? Haha!

no need to be scared
I sprayed my new speedy with Apple garde yesterday... I oversaturated with one handle and I didnt freak out and in a couple of hours it returned to normal
just after sprayed (oversaturated and it showed an uneven @wet@ line)
24 hours later
The stains were quickly wiped, and wiped and wiped and I googled a million ways to assist your vachette, andgot most of it out, but my purse’s handles were already aged so the stains were not horrible but I went to so many websites and visited the grocery store for magic eraser and regular erasers and on and on. I think it looked ok but I also trained my eyes to get desensitized to the stain site, lol and of course had to be hypnotized by a purse therapist. I’m fine with it now…
FYI for your hubby, my sister had her speedy 30 handles and all the trim vachette repiped and it cost at the time 500$, bout half if not more than her original cost of the speedy. It was a while ago.
I haven’t bought anything in monogram for so long but fell in love while browsing this thread. I reached out to an SA and she found one for me in a day! I was so surprised and happy, I didn’t even take my shoes off before unboxing and taking a quick photo. Thanks for everyone posting gorgeous photos of this one! Here’s mine:

My cutie today with a non LV vachetta strap. The color is a little darker than my lighter vachetta, but I think it's ok. 
What a little cutie and what a gorgeous shot as well!
The non LV satrap looks beautiful and matches fine. If you didn’t mention it I wouldn’t have known. Where did you get the strap from? I’m probably have to get one as well.
Thank you!What a little cutie and what a gorgeous shot as well!
