Now I feel bad for alarming you to this :(
I feel like I have spoiled your day.. I'm sorry dear:(

Oh no it's ok my day isn't spoiled at all I love my bags but not enough to ruin my day over it it's lovely outside :) I'm glad you brought this to my attention because I would of probably not noticed for a while and it may get worse I have a week or so to bring it back to LV for a exchange or store credit if they will do that I'm not sure they will but it's worth a try I'd hope they wouldn't be rude or say its normal cause to me 2 1/2 weeks using a bag that you baby should not look like this!

I honestly remember mine looking wrinkled in the first few weeks (even days) of using it, but I just ignored it. Now there are no more wrinkles. Maybe others have experiences to share???

No harm in seeing if the boutique can do something for you for peace of mind.

U can see clearly in this pic it's starting to ripple I'm afraid it will look like the other one before to long:( and the other side I can't see any yet but u can feel it if you touch the strip:( I am so bummed about this!! I felt and stared at the sides to in store and the first few days I had her there was no rippling what so ever

I'm so glad you all posted about this. I just checked mine, and I noticed this wrinkling on one side. I think I received my bag right around the same time as you, and I also baby my bag very much. In fact, I've only taken it out of the house twice since receiving it!

Is this normal wear and tear? Will this eventually start to crack? Sorry, this is my first LV :shucks:

Ebene speedy owners.. Is this normal?

Yes, mine is like this too. I live in warm climate and I carry lots of things with me using the shoulder straps so I believe the leather parts are stressed a bit. I think it's normal. I had the bag for almost a year now, it's held up pretty well. Don't worry about it.

My mono even has the same situation

I second this. I think it's just normal. I've had mine for almost a month & a half and I noticed some ripple & wrinkling on the leather. I believe it's inevitable, like what br_t said the leather is somewhat stressed up esp. when used with the strap. As long is it doesn't cracked, I wouldn't worry about it much. :)
 
Since I'm such a worry wart and this most likely seems normal from what everyone has said possibly sell her and save for something else I've been wanting...other then that she's perfect but I'm to scared to use her now so putting her up till I future out what to do...:/
