I'm thinking of buying the Felices Pochette but can't decide which pattern/material. I already have a Palermo, Ebene Speedy and the pochette accessories in monogram. I'm thinking of using the strap from my Palermo for this Felices as I think I won't be using the chain as often, although I love it and looks so pretty. I am leaning towards the Mono and the Vernis Amarante as I prefer the gold chain instead of silver. The main reason why i am leaning towards these two types is so I can use the strap from my palermo. Otherwise I would consider the emperiente or epi too. I think the vernis, emperiente and epi will scratch more and I have to be extra careful. For those who have these materials, does it scratch up easy? Should I take the plunge? Can I ask those who already have the bag, why did you chose the material for your Felices? Btw, the bags that I have, I don't usually use them so I am looking for a crossbody bag that I can use daily. I've been usually using my Longchamp cuirs as an everyday bag. Thanks to all who respond.

I have been looking at the Felicie for a while and will probably go for the empriente because i have too many canvas pieces...am not a big fan of vernis though it looks really nice.

I have two empreinte pieces and the Felicie in epi leather. I have found empreinte to be very durable. Neither one of my empreintes have any damage whatsoever, and while I'm not reckless with them, I haven't babied them either. I highly recommend that leather. I bought the Felicie in Epi because of the Galet color, and because it is the most low-key of all the materials and prints that the Felicie comes in. Epi is supposed to be pretty durable from what I understand. I've only had the chance to use my Felicie twice, but haven't had any issues with it yet. Hope this helps you with your decision!
 
I would go for the Noir, however i also like the galet in epi but afraid of dye transfer so am not sure i would ever go for that one

I have the Galet in Epi. I've only worn it twice, but once was with black jeans and once was with black pants. I haven't gotten any color transfer so far, but I also only wore them for a couple hours at a time. The SA did tell me when I bought it that while all lighter colors are more prone to color transfer, the Epi leather seems to be more resistant. Just a little unsolicited info from my experience so far :)
 
Has anyone had any issues with lines showing or creases in the bottom piece of felicie monogram canvas? Is this normal? I sent photos to LV and they said it was not faulty, all canvas pieces are different but none of my other bags/dog’s are like this. They are now out of stock too so I can’t exchange I’d have to wait :( what should I do?

Thanks @mgrant. I will reconsider the empriente and epi versions. Too many choices.

My new baby arrived yesterday and it was love at first sight! She's perfect for me because I'm such a girly, girl so, it fits right into my wardrobe. I'm glad I was able to try it on inside the store before purchasing because I'm a tall woman and wanted to make sure the chain hit right below by hip and it does. Plus, I can fit my cell phone (7+) inside of it with no problem. :love:

Hi. No, I don' think this is normal for the canvas to be lifting from the bag like this and it would def. bother me. Would I send it back? Yes! Why? Because clearly it wasn't applied properly and for the price of these hang bags, they should be of a certain quality. I wouldn't send it back then repurchase right away as you might receive the same bag back. I would see how long I have to return my current bag and if one became available within that time frame I would repurchase and send the one I have back. If that wasn't an option, I would send my bag back and just wait a few months and buy it again. I would hope that my new bag wouldn't have any canvas issues. Good luck! Let me know what you decide.

Thankyou - I stalked the website for a week until it was available & ordered another one so I will compare them when it arrives. Hopefully it won't have the same lines. Will let you know!!
 
Yay! I think you made a very wise decision. I hope your new bag arrives in excellent condition.

So I received my new Felicie yesterday - wow what. a difference! This one was made in Spain, different quality canvas, not as 'yellow' monogram print, softer, envelope sits flush and so much nicer. The other one I wasn't happy with was made in France, stiffer, the flap didn't sit flush and I don't know, it just didn't feel like it should. It was interesting to see the difference in quality and where they were both made.
I don't have a store in my city so I have to order online. I miss out on the luxury of choosing between several different pieces!
