After years of wanting a LV for over 15 years, my husband surprised me with a Speedy B 30 for my birthday!!! Many thanks to everyone here for sharing their photos and info on their Speedy's,...so helpful! :)

I Love love the way this strap looks dangling so pretty!!!!!! I'm almost 99.9% sure now on exchanging my regular speedy 30 de for the de speedy b:)

After browsing this thread I think I will! Putting the regular speedy bck in her box and going to LV anyway this coming Friday to get a charm so I will bring this back with me and check out the speedy b:)

Yup. Yup. Good idea. The shoulder strap is what made me buy this bag. I am a shoulder bag kind of girl mostly due to having kids.

Looking forward to your reveal soon :)

Thanks so much! I REALLY love the regular DE speedy 30, but I think i will definitely need the strap to make it practical, especially with my kids.

I have to admit that after reading some the postings regarding the DE Speed B quality issues, i am concerned about whether or not to exchange mine for perhaps the mono, or another LV style. I went to 3 LV stores this weekend to compare mine and all of the DE speedy B's had zipper gaps, and many of the regular DE Speedy's had zipper gaps too! Like you, I would love to know if anyone has had issues with their DE speedy B over time.... Good question!
 
Wow I've never had a mono before due to being terrified of patina but this makes me want one!! So beautiful!!! Is there anyway when it gets to this point to stop it from getting any darker though?

Thank you LVgirl1, so sweet of you to say that!!!
And about making patina stop changing colour at one point, it's a good question i don't know if it's possible :p but there must be some kind of coating thing available ? Though I love watching women over 60s or even 70s carrying their speedy with super dark handle, I think it just shows the history of her and speedy :smile1:
Hope you will get your 1st mono soon :smile1:

I haven't went back but a few pages what were some of the issues on the quality people were saying? Other then a gap anything else?
The speedy I have is perfect but before I start using it I think I'd use it more if it we're the B I have 2 kidos to and it makes it almost impossible to carry it regular sometimes I also like the portobello gm hmmmmm guess I'll wait to hear back some reviews..
