OMG she’s beautiful! I’m wearing my Montsouris BB today but with your pics. I’m wearing my Speedy tomorrow!! Congrats!

Thank you!

Can I just add to my post, that I am appreciative that the LV store did NOT have this bag on display?! The SA said to ask her if there were any bags I wanted to see "because not everything is on display." I then asked for the Speedy 20 and she said they had it.

I am sure that if it were on display, someone would have snatched it up ASAP, so I am appreciative that they kept it hidden until someone specifically asked for it - knowing that would make them a true fan!
 
I've been eyeing the Speedy 20 since last year! Almost did a pre-order but then worried about the $1860 price (at the time) and chickened out. Then it's been out of stock forever, as we all know.

Went to Las Vegas for Spring Break two weeks ago, walked into the LV at Crystals, asked my SA if they happened to have the Speedy 20 in stock (not expecting much) and she said they did! I couldn't stop smiling while trying it on. Hubby said to get it, so I did!

Even though I wasn't expecting much, I figured if any Louis Vuitton store was going to have this bag in stock, it would be their flagship store in Las Vegas, and I was right!

It wasn't until the next day that my husband pointed out that it was Made in France and I was like, "What?!" In my excitement at finding this hard-to-find bag, I didn't even THINK to check where it was made!

I lucked out! I can't believe I just walked into an LV store and picked this right up! Just wanted to share! I love it!
:love:Congratulations. Its a great bag :heart:
 
Hi. I have been meaning to share this for awhile. I don’t like using a purse organizer since it takes up too much room and adds weight to a bag. So I bought a piece of red felt from Michaels art supplies to protect the bottom. This stiffened felt adds a little stiffness :lol:/tiny bit of structure to the bottom.

Did you have to cut it?
 
Hello everyone! I just found out about this bag and was able to grab one from my local store today. I love the bag and am happy with the alignment. The only hesitation I have is with the leather pieces on the sides (the piece that the strap hooks onto). When the bag is not in use they lay flat against the bag, but when I attach the strap and hold it the leather pieces stick out away from the bag. Do yours do this as well?

Mine does depending on how much I have in it.

Yes, I cut a small piece just to line the bottom. My things are in pouches (no loose pens etc) so I just wanted something to keep the bottom clean from lint or little specks. In my picture, you can see the upper left corner of the bottom where the felt meets the bag

Thank you! The pic is of mine empty. Does everyone’s do this? It’s slightly bothersome, but if it’s normal I’m going to forget about it and wear it.

This is a good idea, but I would be afraid of red color transfer to my slg's.

Sure, I understand your concern — you can always use white felt. TBH, I have slight color transfer concerns about the red lining itself even though some say they have had no problem with it. That’s why I have avoided buying bags with red lining till this one. I am not too worried about color transfer from the red felt but I only have 2 DA SLGs compared to more SLGs in other print.
