This week I am slowly starting to get back to work, and wanted to get a 2018 new year bag. Blessed with a good year end bonus and had some ‘me time’ this week to browse the shops.

Almost did not go to LV because I have never bought a bag from LV for the past four years. I fell in love with soft, light leathers and LV leathers just did not do it. But I first saw My Lockme version and amazed with the leather - hey this is light and a bit soft too! However decided that the My Lockme style/color won’t work with my lifestyle today (my husband agreed) (thanks to forum members who also helped me review the resilience of this kind of leather). Saw this one on Monday but decided to browse some more, as the price is quite steep for me. I love the bucket style (my petite Noe is one of my most used LV, and the ‘black with an edge’ style —- that bright spotlight pink edging is really cool!

Actually I already chose another new year, semi casual bag on Wed (a very beautiful red China BV) and I really love it. But this one still haunts me.

So on Friday I head back to the boutique and Made one final comparison between styles and colors. Presenting my first LV bag after 4 years... the black LV Lockme bucket bag!

This is such a gorgeous bag — congrats and enjoy. And also congrats on the BV — red China is a stunning color, did you get the Olimpia?

Thank you! I love decorating my handbags. It’s why I couldn’t say no to the ice cream cone! I put twillys on all my bags, they just add so much fun imo.


My store had one other one that I actually regret not getting. I texted my SA to see if it’s still available for me. Haven’t heard back but I asked if they got anymore in besides the one I inquired about. If they did I will let you know and PM you my SA’s number if you want. :smile:

I love my DE Speedy 30 but rarely use it because my arm gets sore after a while, which is why I'm considering buying a SpeedyB in either Mono or Azur. It's beautiful in all three though--beautiful collection.

I use mostly in my shoulder, The strap is the best.. My choices preference are : 1/Ebene, 2/Mono and Azur. Azur is gorgeous, but its too scary to wear, not just the vachetta, but the canvas as well.

[emoji4] Thank you!

Sadly I had to return my beautiful Pochette Felicie that I purchased a few days ago as it did not fit my phone, keys, and the inserts without stretching the canvas :sad: Lucky for me, my boutique had this Croisette in stock and I fell in love as soon as I saw it! Not sure how I missed this one before but so happy to have it now. This one is a keeper :heart::love:View attachment 3922775

Happy New Year Everyone! This is my first purchase of the year- the ZCP with the puppy dog detailing. Sure to make me smile every time I use it! I love LV’s quirky, cute items for that very reason. :)

Love this cute design. I wanted to order it but it's unavailable online :( Will have to wait to see if they have it @ Seattle location since it's closest to me.

These are the photos , I tried it on the store and fell in [emoji173]️, you said it right a pouchette metis in ebene . I love my pochette metis that’s why I got this . I would love this to have a top handle but the design on this is sleek , clean and simple and I cannot imagine this with the handle as it will ruin the look . This is well made , has feet on the bottom . I describe the look of this purse as classic and elegant. Hope you’ll love this as well when you’ll see it in person [emoji307]. I included a comparison with the pmetis so you will have an idea . [emoji7]

Thanks for sharing! Love both these bags!
Is there a magnetic closure in the back of the Clapton bag? TIA!:heart:
