This bag wasn't really on my radar but I found that the black and cream are so gorgeous. Then I just could not get the cream out of my mind. It's just so freakin' gorgeous with the chain. It's not a carefree bag unfortunately but I do baby my bags so I feel this will not be an issue with me.
I finally managed to place an order with my SA for a Coussin PM in Cream - and she said it could take 16-18 weeks to ship. Here goes waiting. I can't wait to be officially part of the club!

She's here, but sadly I'm a little disappointed. It's a beautiful, gorgeous bag but I have already spotted signs of wear and she's brand new. This one is Made in Italy.

Should I try to exchange it for a different color? I've always wanted a white bag though but I fear if the leather is already starting to peel/chip and I haven't even used it yet, overtime this bag will have black spots all over it. And considering it was a pretty penny, I should enjoy it to the fullest extent.

Replacement arrived today and couldn't be any happier :love:
I actually found that the chain strap is longer than the original one I received with the Cream (I was able to use it as a necklace)! This makes me think it's actually for the MM size.
I also attached the LV Edge Chain Charm - it's a little too short...maybe need to just get an extension/jump ring :biggrin:

Ok you guys! So, I am here to ask if anyone else has some irritation with the following things after using their coussin the first few weeks. For me:

1) on the PM size, the chain always gets stuck under the folds of the bottom of the bag. I am having to flip up the bag to un-entrench the chain constantly, and since the leather is lamb, it's making me have to touch the bag more than I would care to. And when I say always gets under there, I mean always.
2) the middle inside zipper constantly turns around, and sometimes I can't even get it to go back to "normal" so I just leave it open
3) when you have the chain and the strap on the bag together, because of how they attach, they get twisted, one is front, one is back - so I am find myself having to get their symmetry in line too often (distracting when I am on the go)
4) the fabric strap spirals for some reason when I set the bag down - too thin?

NO BAG IS PERFECT! ever. But I am throwing this out there as a constructive critique of its function. I wonder if the larger size, the MM, if the chain gets stuck under the folds of that one..? Anyone?

I have the PM, I always hook the chain not in full length with an O ring so that it would not go under the bag . By doing this, I know which is the front of my bag, therefore the shoulder strap and chain would not twist. I always use it with this strap, not the original strap. I can hook the shoulder strap to the dangling chain part if I want a longer strap to carry crossbody . So far I like this bag more than I thought.

:loveeyes: I love that strap! The way you’ve positioned the chain to hang on the side to prevent it from going under the bag actually looks cool. I have the MM and have not experienced this issue and I also attach to the o rings. But lately, I’ve been wearing it without the chain.
