I am somewhat stickler to having my vachetta as close to "new". Years ago I bought a new LV Meelie bag and did not use Apple Garde as I felt me being careful was good enough. NOPE! Just a few days of owning the bag I got water condensation that dripped from my cup onto the beautiful strap! Uugh! So from that point on (I think from 2016) I always use Apple Garde. I changed my top handles on my 2005 Speedy and decided not to spray the handles. That lasted about 1 month lol.
Understood, I like my bag looks like new too, haha, but I'm fine with water marks. here are the handles of water marks on one of my more frequently used Speedys

Gorgeous! Water marks?? Where? Lol. I don't see a spot on it ar all! How beautiful! Do you ever wipe down your vachetta handles after use with a baby wipe or dry cloth? Gosh I blew up the pic of your bag, lol. I don't even see 1 blemish. Lol
 


I got the speedy 25 tourterelle and love the color. However wished the strap was thicker...
Do u happen to have a speedy 20 fabric strap? Does it go well with the speedy 25
I have fabric straps for both my DA and Mono Speedy 25bs and really love them. So much more comfortable than the leather straps IMO, especially if I have a ton of items in my bag. They don't dig into my shoulder at all. :love: One of my fav pics of LeAnn Rimes is of her with her Mono Speedy and fabric strap, drinking a glass of red vino. Another fav! 🍷

So I fell in love with the black speedy cube when I saw Jessica Simpson carrying hers in the early 2K’s but at that point I was early 20’s and couldn’t afford anything LV. When I saw the soft speedy in black empriente I told my husband that was my dream bag since it was close to the speedy cube. We were on vacation this past week during my birthday and he surprised me with it! And she’s MIF, which is always exciting. I had NO clue he had got it for me and was gobsmacked!!! I love my monogram pieces, don't get me wrong, but this is so special and sentimental. I just wanted to share my excitement with purse pals who get it!!!

Hey! My husband surprised me with a black empriente speedy for my birthday this past week while on vacation in Florida. He knew it was my dream bag since seeing Jessica Simpson carrying her speedy cube in the early 2K’s. I posted pics in another thread but thought pics belonged here too. What’s funny is I don’t even like black bags, I’m a brown bag girl but always thought the black speedy cube was beautiful. And when I saw the soft empriente speedy I thought to myself, that reminds me of the cube! Just wanted to share with purse pals!!!
