There was a small increase recently on some items (the bandeau comes to mind). I can't be sure, but it leads me to believe that one could be coming.
I would try to snag one now. It would stink to have to pay more. It is already expensive for canvas IMO.

As an aside, I am the opposite of you. I just picked up the reverse PM today. I also love it. However, I absolutely fell in love with the creme empriente. Practical me tells me to get black, but either way, this bag is gorgeous in leather!!! I will add an empriente for sure. Pics do not do it justice. The bag is very elegant in leather and very different IMO from the canvas. I got the canvas because I can be rough with my bags in general, and LV canvas has never failed me. I would prob use the canvas most. But when I need a touch of class, I really would love it in leather. Just need to decide black or creme. Black would be used more for certain, but the creme is just so beautiful to me.

Good luck! Let us know what you decide!

Thanks for the info! And definitely get the leather. It is so gorgeous! I’m partial to black because like you I don’t want to baby a bag. Congrats on your reverse!!

Those of you that have more than 1 PM- do you regret getting an additional? Just got the black leather and love it. Debating the monogram...but wondering if I’ll regret getting two of the same style.
I went to the store yesterday and left with a python strap realizing... it’s nearly half the price of the bag! Should I have just gone with the monogram? Thoughts?

I don’t regret it at all! I have the Black empreinte and the reverse and I love them both. I actually got both the reverse and mono and regret returning the mono but I told myself I didn’t need 3.

I have the Rose Poudre and the Reverse, even though they are the same bag I feel the material makes them very different. The reverse is very carefree and I use it more then the Rose Poudre because of the color. I’m waiting for the Very Berry color to be released because I really would love a red crossbody and the scarlet just wasn’t for me.

Great choices - I have the Reverse and an Empriente one too ::smile:: ::heart::

What color empriente do you have?
Today in the store they had noir, marine, poudre and scarlet. If they had creme I probably would have walked out with it since it is my favorite in this leather. I am kinda happy they didn't because I ended up more practical since I am not too careful with my bags. LOL

I originally had the scarlet on hold and when I went to LV to pick it up - that shade of red was not for me. I didn’t get the noir because I have the twice in noir and felt it would have been redundant. I loved the marine and the rose poudre so I went with the Pochette double zip in marine and the poudre PM ::smile::
I replied to one of your other post about your great haul and I attached a pic of the poudre pm with the bandeau wrapped around the handle.

Smart!
I almost bought the poudre (the red didn't work for me either and I ADORE a red bag). I actually think it is prettier in that color, but my daughter was with me and she told me to go with the black because I literally do not own any black bags. LOL I always like a print or pop of color for a purse. I wish they would make it in khaki.

Ok so I tried the bow, and I also did my usual wrap. I definitely prefer the pop of color on an all black bag. I am going to keep the classic wrap on this one because it is a work bag, but I am going to tie a bow on another bag. lolLVB1.jpgLVB2.jpg

Any of you in Europe managed to buy the Metis Mono from online website recently? I have constantly checked the website for two months with no luck. And also no chance at any store, whenever I called, it is always not available.

Anybody use the Bag Haven hardware protectors on their PM hardware? I've still got the clear plastic protectors that came on my bag. Wondering if the Bag Haven ones are less noticeable.
