Thanks, it helps a lot. I am more partial towards the galet color too, just hesitant on whether epi would be able to withstand any stretching if the felicie is filled to the max. I guess I will have to decide which is more important to me, color or material. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.

Here is a picture comparing the neo noe in galet and the zippy coin purse in turtledove (tourterelle).
I agree that turtledove is warmer and a bit darker as well. It could also be because of the epi leather that gives the galet a little shine so it appears lighter.
In terms of empreinte vs epi, I think empreinte is probably more durable but it’s also softer so it will likely stretch a bit more than epi. The epi leather is stiffer when I touch it so I don’t think it will stretch as much.
But in all honesty, both colours and leathers are beautiful so it really comes down to preference.
In general, I prefer empreinte leather more and I like the galet colour a tiny bit more.
Hope this helps!

I think that picture may have been brightened, because both colors look way lighter there than they do in real life. They almost look like the same color in that picture! Turtledove is definitely darker than that, and galet has a much more taupe-grey tone to it.
@MarissaL @MAGforLV I think the best option would be to look at them side by side in person if at all possible. You'll figure out pretty quickly which will work better for you. Both leathers are good options, and both colors are lovely. Like @purply-sky said, empriente is softer in terms of structure, so that's something to consider. Although to be fair, I haven't had any issue with the epi leather being too stiff. it'll just come down to personal preference in the end
Yea I noticed the colour was a bit off in my pic but I didn’t purposely brighten it. I took it during the day when there was natural sunlight.I think that picture may have been brightened, because both colors look way lighter there than they do in real life.

Here is another pic taken in my room. This is probably closer to the true colour.

I didn't mean for it to sound like I was accusing you of anything, I just thought that maybe it had been brightened because of bad lighting or something - sorry about that! It's interesting how these colors can look in different types of light.Yea I noticed the colour was a bit off in my pic but I didn’t purposely brighten it.

Your second picture does look much closer to how they really look - both very pretty pieces

No worries at all! Just trying to help
I love both of them too
. It‘s so hard to choose one over the other.@purply-sky @mgrant Thank you both for your inputs. Very informative. I think now I am more or less decided on which one to get. Will probably go with the galet.... Off to stalking to website for it. Wish me luck!!!No worries at all! Just trying to help

I would need some advice, I have PA which I love, the chain I bought is beautiful and matches perfectly but it's heavy as hell 
is there any option to buy brand new replacement chain for pochette felicie even if I don't own one? I would love to buy directly from LV

Just picked up mine yesterday in black EPI leather and hot pink trim. Love the pop of colour on the trim. This is my second Felicie. I was very surprised to see the date code, manufactured in 2018, made in Italy.
I also found another option for a black leather strap and tag at Coach. I find it is more comfortable to wear with the leather strap.

I just bought a skinny vachetta strap for my Felicie as a secondary and a little more casual way to wear it. I have the DA so I got the honey (light) strap. Bought it off Etsy. A thought...I would need some advice, I have PA which I love, the chain I bought is beautiful and matches perfectly but it's heavy as hell
Also would love to see how people dress theirs up. I’m thinking a bag charm or something but can’t decide.

Yay! Congrats! I’ve been eyeing the Felicie in noir Empreinte but pulled the plug with this without thinking much...that’s how I know it’s meant to be! It was kind of difficult to get a hold of in Australia but luckily my SA was super helpful ❤️
Great SA you have! I had been eyeing the Felicie also. Yes this one was a no brainer.
Sorry to respond for an old post but would you mind to share some mod shots with your Felicie? It looks stunning and I am thinking of purchasing black empriente too
