Took a few modeling shots in my hotel room with my brand new Speedy B 25! For reference, I am 5 ft. 92 lbs.

Bag is empty in all pics.

Thanks for the pics......very helpful!
 
Does anyone think it's overkill having a Speedy B 20 in both mono and DE? I have a DE which I love and cannot decide to get a mono as well? I think I worry that the print may be too much for me (I think it's beautiful, though!) xx
 
Has anyone debated Speedy B 30/35 versus Turenne PM? I'm staring at those nice pockets in the Turenne but can't get myself to like its shape, yet... (I prefer the Speedy's look)


I have both and love both. If you like the shape of the Speedy I'd say get the Speedy and get a bag organizer. It's a classic. I don't find the pockets on the Turenne to be that useful for what I carry.
 
I hope I'm posting this on the right thread....I've been considering buying a Speedy b 30 in damier ebene for a long time. I'm torn between a Saint Laurent Sac de Jour and the LV (I know, 2 totally different looks!) Anyway, my question is this: at almost 60 years old, is the Speedy too young and casual for me? I really love it, but I don't want to look silly! I would really appreciate any and all opinions-

I am in the same boat. Did you decide on the speedy? I'm going birthday shopping in a few weeks and I keep vacillating between the speedy b 25 DE and the favorite mm mono. I love them both but wonder which is the best fit. My husband complains when we are out on dates that my bag ( Delightful MM mono) :amuse::amuse:gets in the way when we are walking!

I bought the turenne pm and really loved the pockets and the wide opening....I did however end up selling it as I found it too "ladylike" for my style.... I also hated the tiny leather pull tab on the zipper.... I really think speedy is a classic style you will not tire of...
 
Does anyone have problem with speedyb30 2015 with its zipper? Because i bought bando 30 cos has a long strap but if i use it with the strap the top of the bag is very slouchy and as the result the zipper is bending all the way. As such its very difficult to unzip the bag unless i have to put the bag first at the table so the zip is flat and i can unzip it. Or is it because the quality of the canvas is getting thinner? So it slouch a lot? Or the best bando with long strap is only bando 25 ? So the zip will have less slocuhy at the top zipper. Thank u
