Alma BB in Marine. Had been waiting for one since last October so was surprised to find one available on the website Monday. I do wonder if it may have been a return because there are faint signs in the interior of use, but I'm ok with it because I think it's the nature of the lining. It does say made in France, 50th week of 2017, so that is def enough time for a purchase and return in the last month. I had fun swapping the strap with the one I'm using on the Mini PS and side by side they look to be the same size!IMG_20180125_224231.jpg IMG_20180125_224236.jpg IMG_20180125_224307.jpg IMG_20180125_224613.jpg

It's a lovely bag..
 
Received my neverfull mm but don’t know if I should return due to the white stitching and if it devalues it on re sale. Vuitton don’t seem it as a fault. Allignment is good and apparently that’s a big re sell issue! UPS coming today and I don’t know if I should keep or send it back. I’ve been told the next one could have the same problems.6EE2A332-DC06-4E25-B8C8-EBAE10D88196.jpeg0C25BC82-7302-45F2-8E33-C376E484EA06.jpegECA35E50-8B4B-4C1F-8F53-85C60B0651F5.jpeg7F62FC28-C0B8-45FE-A88C-DA88ACB05C28.jpeg98AD336E-92A2-44DB-A3F5-8796F8ABCCC7.jpeg

You need to ask yourself will this bother? Which I imagine it is or you wouldn’t be asking. If you are satisfied return it.

I am also thinking about the Speedy B 25 in DE because it is so carefree and I can throw it in the floor board of my car without worrying about getting the leather all dirty or the weather or whatever. I love the red inside of that as well. I'm not a big fan of DE but need a carefree bag for traveling so I can just toss it in the car or wherever and not worry. I think you will be very happy with that bag.
I went ahead and bought the monogram obe because I love the monogram and just didnt care for the DE and just couldnt do it. So, I will wrap my handles with a fun bandaux and I will be careful with my strap but not worry and if it gets really dirty I will buy a new one or just use the monogram strap from my pochette metis.
 
Thank you @SDBagLover - I plan to go back to the store tomorrow and check out the Felicie and perhaps purchase it (SA says she received one in). I'm pretty sure I'm going to order the Pallas also. I am smitten by that bag. <lol> Again, I'm most appreciative of your help.


I think I should start looking at Mautto for some longer straps.:smile:

I just wanted to say I have the Pallas clutch. I use the chain to extend the strap so it hangs on me correctly. I’m not tall but have a really long torso so most cross body bags don’t quite hit me right. I love my Pallas. Good luck and enjoy your bags.

Oh, that's pretty! Love the color and the mono handles. Beautiful!
 
I received the Ponthieu pm in Cherry today. It's beautiful but I'm wondering whether I should exchange it for something else because I already have the marine rouge (I've not purchased a bag that's the same model and same size as one I already have before).

Girl, keep them, they are stunning! You won't regret it! :smile: (I own 2 models of LV in multiple colors and I love every single of them)
