Congrats! Can't wait to see your beauty. I love my Petite Noe so much - it's really the perfect size and I love the easy access combined with the ability to cinch and keep items protected. I highly recommend the MCraft (etsy) pull for the cords. It makes it much easier access and will patina along with the rest of your vachetta.

My brand new Petit Noe. It is getting its first tan. I am doing the patina champ method. Anyone done that for your noe? I am curious how it will patina over the next months.
Hello,
My Noe arrived today, I'm so happy. My husband bought it as a birthday present for me, my birthday is still a few days away but I could not wait to open the box and try her on. I also ordered a leather string keeper from etsy, and an organizer for the bag, they will arrive within the next weeks.
The Noe is my second Louis Vuitton Bag. I love the vachetta leather and can't wait for the patina to develop over time, and seeing the vintage Noes in this thread makes me really excited about how the bag will age with me.

Thank you! Your petit Noe is beautiful too! I was wondering where I could read into the patina champ method or generally how to develop a pretty patina, I'm new to Louis Vuitton and it seems that there are so many methods, some people don't use anything on the vachetta, some people prepare it with leather conditioner, I really don't know where to start...
If you do a search on LV main forum, search titles and enter patina it r champ or both words.
I personally use Apple Garde spray on both my Noe BBs and they look new after two years.
I love this thread and never get tired of seeing everyone’s classic drawstring Noe in any size!
Was typing on iPad so didn’t see it changed. “Patina or champ or both words” is what it should say
Gorgeous!! I have the string keeper and it's a total game changer. Enjoy your new beauty and have great birthday!
I am going to vote for the classic Noe regardless of your frame as the size to start with. I feel the proportions are better but that is just me- I have all sizes of the drawstring Noe- classic (mono and DA), petit (mono), bb (mono) and nano (mono) and love them all.
Different ways you can tie the strings
But I think I want the string stopper...
Oooh have you posted a family picture yet?!
