I went in to pick up my noir and well it didn't wow me. The inside pockets are too small for me. I would have had to downsize my wallet and makeup/catch all bag. As a plan B I asked to have a noir speedy b and guurrrrlllsss..... it sang to me. I added a sweet bandeau and it was all I could see.
First impressions on the Metis: Its smaller than I thought it would be and it was kinda bland for me, even with a bandeau. At first I felt obligated to love it. My SA said there were 2 SA's waiting to see if I passed on it to swipe it for their customers. One random lady even stood by me watching me try it on and get my stuff in and out of it! I was so weirded out.
In the end, I knew which bag my heart sang for.
Picked up a bandeau, Mono Favorite MM, LV Mono/Noir Reverso Belt, Speedy B 25 Noir, and Jeanne Wallet in blue and orange.
Thanks for letting me share!

Finally, finally, finally got my Noir PM today, yay! Got tired of being number #1 on a list at a Bloomingdales Boutique that never seemed to receive shipments of the Noir. Went to an actual LV store to look around and took a look at the Cerise PM. It's gorgeous but I think I will get much more use from a black PM. The SA took my credit card information and seemed pretty confident that I would receive the bag by Tuesday. We parted ways and I took one more lap around the large store hand what did I find around a corner? Yes, a Noir PM displayed in a small nook! I immediately found the SA I had been talking to and showed her the bag. She was very surprised to see it and checked it on the computer. It was an expired reservation and all mine if I wanted it. Heck yes I wanted it, lol.

Say hello to my little friend....

You chose some lovely pieces. Would love to see a modelling pic of your Speedy. How do you find the length of the strap on your Speedy b25 noir?

Do you all think owning 3 Metis bags are overkill?
I have infrarouge and reverse........and regular mono is in transit.
I love the bag, but wondered maybe I should not keep mono since reverse *maybe* similar?
Anyone own reverse and regular mono? Are you happy with both?

If you really really love the bag then keep all. For me i love the PM but i decided to sell my mono and keep only the Reverse. I figured if i really did miss the bag i can always repurchase. Its been a couple months since sale of mono and i dont regret it. I have a big love for the reverse and some of my other bags that my PM itch is scratched enough [emoji5]️ thats just my experience though not trying to sway either way![emoji106]

You should do what makes you happy. I personally don't think that 3 bags is too much, but that's just my preference. Just like Laila071, I have the Neverfull MM in all 3 prints because I love (and use) that bag so much. I'm not drawn to many styles of LV, so I have a few "repeats" in my collection. I'm strongly considering getting the Pochette Metis in reverse monogram (I have the regular monogram print).
