Hi you guys! I just found a really beautiful petit noe in good condition on the per-loved market. I was not really planning on buying a petit noe but this bag is so cute and I'm starting to get a little obsessed Any pros and cons ??

I'll tell you what I did! I was also getting obsessed with the petit noe!! Really wanted one! But was afraid I would get a fake on e bay or the ones that looked in good condition were up to 600 or more. So I thought about it....... a lot!!! Lol. Ended up getting the new noe bb and buying a melie replacement strap to get that shirt strap look of the mini!! Plus it has the crossbody option. I really love it. I guess my only regret would be if I bought the pre lived I wouldn't be as careful with it. But this new one is beautiful. Like a brand new mini noe!!

My "new" preloved vintage Noe arrived today. She is 22 years old and real beauty. Had a bit of a hard time deciding about this one or the petit Noe but thanks to this thread I think I made the right choice! Had expected the bottom to be bulkier but was happily surprised it wasn't as wide as I thought.

Hi Noe Fans,

I'm in a dilemma lol, bag dilemma to be precise. So I recently bought the neo Noe and I have 5 days to make up my mind. How does it compare with the Noe for those of you that have the two. I already have speedy 35 in DE and Artsy Empreinte so want a monogram.

Thanks

Personally I felt that the Neo Noe hung on me weird both as a shoulder bag and as a crossbody so I passed on it. I also felt that the bag looked "unfinished" because of the lack of vachetta. I am a vintage fan so like the look of the original Noe. The Neo noe will definitely be low maintenance! But both are beautiful and you cannot go wrong with either!

Congrats on your bag, love Fashionphile, sometimes you can get a really good bag in really good condition at a really good price.

I ordered 2 Epi Petit Noes from the LV Web site, 1 fuchsia and 1 noir. The noir was made this year, arrived as usual with the strap not attached and stuffed with packing. The fuchsia was made in 2012 (???) and arrived with the straps attached, no stuffing, and tightly cinched with the drawstring in a bow. Just curious how your online purchased Noes arrived! Thanks for the input!

I recently ordered an epi petit Noe online in the colour fuschia through customer service. It came with no stuffing and the strap attached with the drawstring chinched like yours. It was made in 2013. Love the bag and was very happy to get it but it should not have come this way. Were you happy with your fuschia Noe and did you keep it? I was also told I couldn't order a replacement drawstring to keep in reserve without sending my bag back to LV to have them replace it which seems odd.

After looking for an ebene hobo and researching the Trevi, I came across a You Tuber who modified her Noe strap to attach w a bolt snap hook similar to the Trevi. I found some brass hooks and did the same so I will see how I like it. So far I do like that the strap is more flexible with swiveling.

Here's a picture of the hooks I added (left is petit Noe strap and middle is Noe) plus my LV luggage strap with its original LV hooks for comparison. I use the LV strap on the right to make my Delightful crossbody.
