Question for you Speedy B owners...I currently carry a NF MM or a Totally MM. Will the Speedy B 25 be too small do you think? I tried one on today at the LV Boutique, and I love the size of it, but I'm worried the opening may not be big enough for me to reach in and grab things. I'm getting ready to purchase one soon and I now I don't know if I should get the 25 or the 30....TIA!!!

I have a 25, and have used it as my everyday bag for over a year. I absolutely loooooove it, it's a perfect size for cross body and holds a surprising amount of stuff. If you are used to stuffing your other bags full, it may seem small to you, but if your looking for something smaller its perfect. I find no difficulty with the opening, because its more compact everything stays in place for me and I easily reach in for what I want. Just be aware it will be different from your two totes :). Hope that helps?? Cannot recommend this bag enough!!!
 
I'm finally in with my Speedy B 30 in DE! Thanks for the advice above..I'm so in LVoe with this bag!!

Hi ladies, I've got a quick question. I have my eye on acquiring a new bag and am really leaning towards a Speedy B 25 in DE. I'm just a bit paranoid about the couple posts about the leather at the d-rings fraying excessively....any thoughts? I was also considering the Tivoli GM, but I think it might be too big for me (I'm 5'1).

I got mine Dec last year, used her a handful times only but she's been to rain and she still looks gorgeous! So easy clean too! Here's a pic took 2 days ago only, practicing photography. :) except the padlock has already tarnished but you can always clean it with a metal polish cloth to bring back the shine.

Omg, it's so beautiful, I'm in love! :loveeyes: yeah, it's a huge plus for me to be able to use it in all sorts of weather without worry. It snows here a lot and I'm deathly afraid of water spots on patina. Thanks for the info! I think I'll take the plunge and officially be in the club :smile1:
 
I wasn't planning on getting a Speedy....but Speedy B is such a beautiful and functional piece. I tried the DE 25 and 30. Found the DE 30 is perfect for my needs. Love the shoulder strap! It's MIU and a little of the red fabric is showing on one side where the zipper is. The pipping is a little uneven but I'm not bothered by it. Overall, it's a great purse! I will post pics this weekend.
 
I have the DE 30. The excess from the straps stick out, since I need the extender to use it cross body, but keep it at the first hole otherwise it would be too short (does this make sense?)

What do you all think about wrapping a scarf around the extender to keep the excess from getting caught on stuff? Would it look silly?

I love this bag, been carrying it since I bought it, so I just want to make sure I don't ruin the straps. :)
