The POCHETTE Club!!!

[LVintage_LVoe]

Excited for it's arrival!



And here's my PA. She's an OM, 17 years old. That's why I also wanted the dark brown strap bec. her vachetta has turned to dark patina already. She already has a short chain strap when it calls for dressier occasions but I need the longer, leather strap for casual use.

Hello, I see you have already decided not to get the pochette, but honestly the pochette is better than luggage tags imo, especially because you can use it inside other bags. I use mine a lot, then again I don't have the twinset, so yes those two are a little similar. I still find the pochette very versatile and love the short strap for quick errands and the sort. Gld, happy shopping!

I have a catchall bag in my bag! It is from kilpling and I love/use it to death!! I have 2 small and 2 big compartments inside! Very useful!! So that i can separate my stuff!! I don't want to replace it by any other brand!! For me if I would buy the Pochette I would use it as a small bag like the favorite or my diorama. That is not why I decided against it! Since I don't have a luggage tag I though I will go for it and keep my birthday present small for this year - to prepare for a big item next year [emoji51][emoji51][emoji51]. But still thanks for your comments!

Been lurking here and would love to join the club! I figured a PA would be good piece as my first Damier Azur piece! I'm debating buying pre-loved from eBay Japanese sellers (to save some $) or buy new? New would be the NM, and pre-loved would be from 2007/2008.

For those of you that have both old model and NM: any major differences? Which one do you prefer.. was wondering if NM is worth the premium. Thanks!

I finally did my over due project for my OM PA. I bought a crossbody strap for my PA and had been using it as a crossbody for three months (sometimes, just stuffed it in a bigger bag[emoji6]). My husband and I will be attending a Gala so I decided to do this long time over due project[emoji38].
I bought a 120 cm chain (can be found at the arts/craft aisle) at Walmart of about $3.50 and a clip on ebay last summer. I just removed about 17 inch from the chain because I just want a short chain to make it as a fancy shoulder bag. I attached the clip to it and the other end of the chain, I attached directly to the d-ring next to the zipper (when the bag is close). I did it this way so that when I don’t want the chain showing and will be just using the bag as a crossbody or a catch-all bag in a bigger bag, I can just keep the chain inside the bag. Now my PA is a bit fancier and ready to be used for a date night[emoji4]
Sorry, I didn’t do a mod shot ‘cause I am wearing my jammies

Hi,
I would like to ask for those who own older model Pochette Accessories. I'm looking at a pre owned 2010 one and the zipper top has bumpy looks (meaning the zipper looks not even line) - I inserted a picture to show the zippers. Is it normal for older ones to do this? The condition says like new otherwise and they are asking $270. What would you think? The new ones are $500 so I feel like it is not enough discount lol.

I just realized that I wrote the wrong year for the Pochette which is 2000 not 2010

Hi! My OM is from 2004 and she is not like that at all. I bought it pre-loved for only $120 approx. Here's a pic of her I posted here a couple of days ago ...



IMO, if you are going to use it a lot, it's nice to buy the NM since it's a bit bigger and the strap is a bit longer than the OM. And Christmas is fast approaching too; it would be a wonderful gift to yourself [emoji4]). But if you still want an OM, take your time looking for one in excellent condition. GL deciding! [emoji4]

Mine is also from 2000.Was able to buy it preowned for about $120 three months ago.I am not using the vachetta strap at the moment because I used this bag as a crossbody bag and also I just finished adding a short gold chain strap for formal occasions. It’s vachetta was not even that dark when I got it. I’ve been using it like 6x a week so it is worth the money.

I bought an NM azur online about a week ago. There was a mono online last night for a few hours. Keep checking, especially late at night.

That looks bad. And far from "like new." I would look around for another one. I've seen many that have a straighter zipper.
