I am a speedy girl for sure--have a few! My first speedy was the classic 25 monogram which I sold years ago. Loved that bag! Now I'm missing it, and thinking of rebuying it for my birthday this spring. What do you all think? I do have a few speedys but there is just something about that classic monogram.....is it silly to repurchase it?

Nope, I love the classic monogram speedy. I'm a speedy girl as well and have both Mono and DE in classic 30. I've been using my DE for the past month. I'll change out for a day or two but go right back to it. I'm planning on ordering a MWT speedy this month (I've been on the fence for a year and a half!). I try to diversify but those unstructured bags just make me happy. Long winded answer but I say go for it!

I have to agree. The speedy is an amazing bag. I have been debating selling my B25 in DE since I received my MWT B 30. I love the opening so much more. I’m thinking of selling the DE B25 to get an empriente B25 for when I want something smaller.

Thank you!!! I want to love structured bags--but I just don't! Except for a flap bag, or a camera bag for going out at night and special occasions. But give me an unstructured bag for day to day---and I am beyond happy! I think I really miss just my simple speedy 25 monogram. Thinking this will be my spring birthday gift!

So I have been seriously debating with myself, I already have the speedy b 25 but in thinking that maybe I need something a little larger just for a random occasions like the 30. How many of you out there have both of these sizes? And why?

I had the 25 but sold it to get the 30. The 25 was a great crossbody but the limited opening just bugged me. The new 30 is a little bulky, but I don’t wear it crossbody so not a big deal. I love the interior accessibility and ordered a bag shaper to keep slouchiness at a minimum. (Love the ones from 47th Heaven on Etsy. Her organizers and shapers are canvas rather than felt and really nice.)

I have both sizes. I use the B 25 when I don’t need to carry very much, but lately I have really loving the space in the B 30.

Not sure if this will help anyone or not. I just got back from Paris where I purchased my first speedy (speedy b 30). Prior to going to Paris, I researched a ton about what size I wanted. I’m tall (5’9) and have a medium build. I had a hard time finding mod shots of someone my size, so here she is. This is the day I got her, so excuse the awkward bathroom selfies. Had to send my sister a picture right away (not pictured is the luggage tag with the Eiffel Tower hot stamp that the SA gave me for FREE)

This is what I’m thinking too but I only carry DE and don’t know if I really need both sizes in the same print. It’s more about the functionality of each though. Hmmmmm???? Lol

Ohhh I see. I should clarify my B 30 is a My World Tour and my B 25 is DE. So for me they’re two completely different bags lol. But if DE is your jam, I don’t see why you couldn’t have two different sizes :biggrin:
