I bought an additional shoulder strap for my Alma BB bag. This strap I find very comfortable on the shoulder due to its thickness. I also like that it’s adjustable as the original Alma strap is too long for my height.

I also like this strap because it changes the Alma bag from cute and ladylike to edgy and cool. Nice to change it up depending on the occasion. :)

Hey babe.. can u post a modelling shot of the bag with the strap when u get a chance? Thanks!
 
Love it! Do you mind if I ask where you are located? I’ve been trying to find one of these but they are sold out in the US. I’ve seen two new ones posted this week on TPF, yours being the 2nd. Just curious if they are more available elsewhere. Thanks!
I’m in Virginia. I reached out to an SA on the day it launched and she told me she could order it for me and it should arrive within two weeks but wasn’t shipping right away. More than two weeks passed so I called her back. She said she’d have to forward the request for a status update to the order management team. Next day it shipped!

The black looks so classy!
It’s is❤️ The monogram and damier ebene was too flashy for me so I’ve decided to go with epi and so far so good.
Just one quick question to everyone who owns that bag in any colour and leather, is it normal that the inside lining is not “glued” to the base of the bag?? Mine seems to be flowing and doesn’t stick to the base, not sure if this is how it’s made or it’s just faulty..

I’ve also been trying to get this one. Love that it’s canvas in the base, hopefully it will be hard wearing. But, they are sold out everywhere, even in Europe. I called and they said to keep checking the website. Ugh!
 
Hi everyone.. I'm also joining the club :heart:

Getting this bag was quite an interesting journey. Since the city where I live doesn't have any LV store and I need to go to the neighbour country if I want to see and try the bag myself, so I thought just to buy it online directly from LV website. But then it was always sold out/unavailable.

I finally called the client service to see if I could be on waiting list. The CS said that it was not available for waiting list and the bag also not available in the store nearest me (at the neighbour country). I felt really bumped out.

So few days after that, I browsed to the LV website and randomly refreshing the alma bb DE page like couple of times out of boredom. Then it just suddenly stated "Add to shopping bag"!. I went on a panic mode and filled in all the necessary info as fast as i can and ordered it.

But then I thought maybe it just a glitch on the website or something and was waiting for an email to say that they made a mistake about the system etc.. But no, instead I got an email stating that my bag was already packed and ready to be sent and I actually got it the very next day.

But it makes me wonder, why they can't had me on WL but then it's suddenly available online? or maybe they have certain amount of stocks available only for online.

So yeah.. great experience of buying LV bag from their website for the first time. I was so happy that I didn't get in the waiting list because I can skipped 3-4 weeks waiting time :biggrin:. And I have checked the bag like thousand of times to see if there's any defect or anything but it's perfect (hopefully.. LOL).

Sorry for the long post.. just felt really excited. Haven't got any chance to wear the bag yet, but I love the look so far.
