Here is another purse organizer I bought on eBay from seller faantazy.klozest. I bought the size for the speedy 25 and it fits perfectly. It has a detachable bottom that zips on and off. It has two Velcro pieces that can hold it together if that's how you want to use it. It can be used without the detachable bottom for all kinds of bags. Very well made and durable. It does not distort the bag in any way when the bag is cinched. I will try to attach a photo,

Just got my first Noe! It's a near vintage--1997. Does anyone know if it's Toledo blue? Also it doesn't have a pocket inside -- I thought some older ones have an inner pocket. It looks to be in great shape. Couple of creases in the front near the ties that I couldn't see in the listing. Do you think it looks ok despite the minor creases? I need to google how to do a proper slip knot.

1997 is probably post pocket. Mine from 92 has the pocket. Yours looks like it's in great shape.

Hi again, is it possible to show the bag from a distance with the luggage tag on it...I kinda want to get a view of how it lays on the bag (if it lays flat or sticks out some) plus it's size against the bag ..also is there more than one size luggage tag or are there two? Tia
 
I received the leather slider from Etsy seller LeatherPrince.I can't believe how perfect this little piece of leather fits the purse. It makes all the difference when opening and closing the bag. I ordered it on March 28th and received it yesterday, all the way from Taiwan.

Just curious... I am still wanting a Noe soo bad, but now leaning towards bb. Is the bb the same size as the old mini with the short handle?

I'm so stumped! I just worry it won't hold quite enough. I will use it when traveling, so will need it to fit a water bottle, iPhone, ZCP, mini pochette. Maybe cles/keys, too.

Looks great! I ordered mine on Mar 27, haven't gotten it yet. I asked him to change the stitching colour to yellow to match the stitching on the bag. Hope I like it!

Hi there. I was struggling too between bb and petit. At the end i went for petit - why? Because bb would be too small for my flight weekend trips. I'm an easy person and like to travel with my handbag only (no other bags whatsoever). I used my speedy 30, givenchy antigona and now petit noe. What fits inside? A lot:

- 2 t-shirts, underwear
- hair dryer travel size
- plastic bag with liquids (shampoo, tooth brush, razor, tooth paste, perfume etc)
- make up bag - size s (i use kiko sheer squared bag, sold 2pack in 2 sizes)
- tangle teezer, normal size
- 0.33 bottle of water
- mini pochette (use it as a wallet)
- keys, phone
- another small pochette with wires, headphones etc.
- small umbrella
- a bretzel :D

On the way back i could even fit "colomba" (1kg italian easter cake) inside my bag. 1/3 was outside but i still could carry the bag on my shoulders.

The bb is nice too but its in my opinion only for summer and only for essentials. If its what you want go for it. There should be a price increase in some weeks. At least in europe.

Thank you so much for your help! Do you find the base of the petit too wide? I'm afraid I'll bump it into everything lol. I saw the regular Noe and the bb and just wrote off the petit initially. I don't know why and I think that I need to check it out ASAP! I have a repair that should be completed in about a week so I'll be checking that out on my trip to the boutique. Do you find it holds about what the speedy 30 does? I have two little kids as well and do need to throw some extras in my bag as well lol. So far the speedy 30 and neverfulls have been my easiest to use.

You're very welcome. :)
I have my petit since two weeks. I feel the base a bit bulky but it doesn't concern me. Also the usage feels different if the bag has few things in it or is full. I feel it more if its almost empty. But the bag and the shape is also new to me so I just have to get used.

I was interested almost a year in the noe bb and I have also wrote the petit off (the standard was not an option). Despite the space I was thinking and still do that the bb one gets more marks on the patina since it always rubs on your clothes and I love dark blue jeans. Also I have a quite warm and fat winter jacket and with the bb cross body it just looked weird in my opinion since the base is bulky.

The speedy/petit comparison is a bit difficult.

First of all with two kids you might get annoyed with closing the straps. But the solution might be our "leatherprince" from etsy who I feel is producing sliders for purseforum's noes like crazy. I ordered one a week ago. So I can't say if its better from my own opinion.

Second you must get used to pack your petit more neatly than a speedy if you want to cary more things. I.e. Above mentioned things for traveling. But it should be fine if you cary few things on a daily basis.

Third is a big plus for the noe because of the big opening. You'll love it. I think you can fit the same amount of things in each bag. For sure my above mentioned list. But I feel even more due to the opening.

Then the petit is far more handy with the shoulder strap than the speedy with the handle.

And last but not least I find the noe is such a classy bag with a vintage style. I'm really looking forward to see it getting old. [emoji5]️

Keep me updated on your decision. [emoji5]️

The bb is bigger than the Noe mini. I loved that bag, still regret never getting the Noe mini as I prefer hand held bags and that bag was adorable!
I have the large Noe (in both mono & azur) and actually carry it hand held with the vachetta handle from the Metis hobo (so it is like a large size Noe mini that I missed out on years ago lol).
I also have the mono bb. It actually holds a ton despite it's small size! I can fit a wallet, sunglasses, iPhone, keys, cles, the small LV cosmetic pouch etc. I used to carry it hand held as well with the vachetta handle BUT my SA finally allowed me to order a LV cotton canvas strap. I prefer the fabric straps when carrying cross body (as opposed to the mono or vachetta straps) but they only seem to come on certain luggage pieces which I don't own. My SA finally let me order the strap from the Icare as a replacement part and I just got it last week so now the bb will be a cross body bag, perfect for the summer!
