Dear Isus,
I don't have a bag in VL yet, but I've waiting for one I've ordered.
So far I only saw the samples in the leather bag and a couple of bags in this leather in the boutique - Bolide and Paris Bombay. There are few reasons I like it.
-I really like how this leather shows the colors. I was looking for a bag in Blue Indigo and liked it the best in VL. It gives the color the multidimention that enhances it, IMO. My favorites in VL are Blue Indigo, Noisette, Rouge H and Ebene. Blue Inigo in VL is not too dark, like in Box or Evergrain.
-I also like the shine that VL has, and I've heard that it develops the beautiful patina over the time.
-I think it's specially perfect for the Sellier style. I saw the Kelly in Rouge H and it was absolutely gorgeous. It was a perfect day to evening bag IMO.
Not too serious for the day look (like black Box), but still dressy enough for the evening out.
-I have a bag in Veau Grain Lisse and really like it (I don't find it "plasticky" at all). I also find it quite different from Epsom, since the small grain has color dimension - just like VL.
-It's reputation for being very tough leather (it was used for luggage).
Again, I don't own the VL bag yet, but looking very forward to.
I'm planning to use it for travel and daily use, so VL seems the perfect choice.
