If you were expecting more shimmer, I would consider the capucines line/family. The leather for those pieces are more in line with what I was expecting for something called “Stardust.” The empreinte pieces look so cheap (and kind of tacky) compared to the capucines. I absolutely do not need another wallet (I need a cardholder lol), but I’m seriously considering picking up a capucines wallet in lilas.

Capucines! Wait for the capucines photos to leak! I’m too scared to post the ones I have lol but what they did to the taurillon leather is so much nicer.
Lilas in empreinte is probably the most disappointing imo. Purple is my favorite color, but I hate how the actual completed pieces look. Honestly, I think it would be better if they didn’t make any pieces in the Lilas empreinte.I’m really disappointed that they seemingly did away with a Lilas or purple shade. Probably a good deal for my wallet!
It's really hard, especially since we know of the other China exclusives that are off the table.
My favorite colors are green and purple, but I don't think the vert in the collection is quite what I want. I have an empreinte speedy 20 in the navy nacre, but I've only tried it on and never used it because it is just too big on me and I'm usually trying to hold a squirming toddler without damaging my bag at the same time. So I think I'm going to get the Speedy nano in pink for sure, because even though the short zip is a little problematic, the smaller size will make it really good for grab and go. I've seen a pic of the lilas neonoe bb here (I think) and my SA sent it to me to see if I wanted to order (terrible blurry pic but I knew what it was from here). My first LV bag was the empreinte lilas marais bb, which I loved so much! It holds such a special place in my heart because I loved the color, but I ended up selling it later on because I just did not reach for it without a strap. The Nano Noe looks like the perfect size (I love a bag that I can throw inside a tote or inside my car console, but still large enough for essentials of cards and car key fob) but the lilas color has my heart.
Like most of us, I have way too many bags, all Hermes, LV and Chanel other than one exotic prada bag, but the workhorse bags that I grab for in rain or shine, workout, groceries or office, little dirty boys to a playground or little dirty boys to preschool... are LV sunset Keepall XS, LV pink taigarama outdoor pouch (with a different cross body strap), Chanel cocohandle mini.
I think I will love the pink speedy nano because of the size and the color as long as the zip is big enough to get my hand in without scratching my hand (I hate that). The most similar bag I have to the Neonoe BB would probably be the blue leather and reverse mono Duffle bag from a couple of years ago. That was a bag I fell in love with for looks, but I have used it exactly once. It is just too big for me. It doesn't look too big, but certain bags have a physics to them that makes them swing like a pendulum every time I reach over to pick something up instead of sticking close to the body. On the other hand, my workhorse bag for over a year with a new baby was the montaigne empreinte bb (I had to return it about 1.5 years later for glazing issues), the physics of that bag were wonderful, it stuck to my side with movement and chasing after the boy, and I love the open top bags where I can easily reach in and get my items out.

AWWW, I know a lot of people feel this way. Green and purple are my favorite colors, but I actually find that I like the lilas more than the vert from the photos so far. From what people are saying it sounds like that will change when I see them in real life. That would be great because then I could get the lilas monkey off my back.
Ahhhh I’m excited to see the capucines! Can you describe it? Is it more like a gradient?
It’s more of an iridescent/duochrome solid color… best way I can describe it is like eyeshadow (see below, Natasha Denona ad). Depending on the angle, you get flashes between two different colors. The colors I’ve seen so far for capucines are grayish purple + pink, and mint green + lemon yellow.
Omg, thank you, do you have picture of the green speedy from this collection
Not yet, but should be up soon
Ack I‘m so indecisive whether I should preorder the vert Speedy 20! My SA is recommending to but I haven’t even seen a clear pic! What should I do?
You should preorder it to be on the safe side. They won't charge your card if you don't leave the store with it. They'll just sell it to the next person.
