BEAUTIFUL!!! I love this bag, reverse is just wow! But why almost all new released bags have a shape to tend to get a corner-wear? (extra sharp corners) I am so sad about this! I would love to have this bag, but ... Anyway, I am sure you will have fun with this beauty, enjoy every single minute with her! Please post more details - modeling shots, interior etc. I am going to stare at this beauty :smile:

More pics for @AndreaM99. hope it helps:biggrin:

May I get some advice from the more experienced LV owner. (Sorry, wasn’t sure where to ask). My first LV bag was a couple years ago was the Turenne PM. I love the bag, but don’t use it very often because I have 2 kids and worry about the handles. Second bag was the Favorite MM for Christmas this year. Love love love this bag. But am now considering getting one more for a more care free and slightly bigger style as my other everyday bag. Thinking about choosing the Speedy B 25 in DE canvas. Originally thought Pochette Metis in mono, but I’m reading about so many problems too. I’m not sure and with that one I still have a little vachetta to worry about. Thanks in advance for helping this momma out!!


I’m a new mom and I got the South Bank for Christmas. I had originally wanted and received the Favorite MM but found it didn’t fit everything I wanted to carry so I exchange it for the South Bank. I love this bag! It fits all my essentials and more and I love love love the red interior on the strap. It also has a slim profile so I find that it doesn’t get in the way like a more bulky option would. This is the replacement for the Bloomsbury btw.
 
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!View attachment 3946433 View attachment 3946434 View attachment 3946435 View attachment 3946436
Just love this bag!!! :heart:
 
You are very welcome and thank you for your nice compliments on the Felicie. It is a favorite of mine. I understand your dilemma with the strap length. I'm tall as well, 5'9" so I have to be careful about strap length too. I'll post a pic of the two straps side by side. The Felicie strap is just a tad bit longer (about 1/2"), however, I know this sounds strange but when I put the bags on, the Pallas clutch hangs just a little bit lower on me than the Felicie. Good luck with your choice!

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.

@SDBagLover and @Bubbles1987 - the only Marine Rouge Felicie the store had appeared to have been a return (plastic off the cliffs and the card holder insert looking used) and the red trim was badly scuffed. I tried on the red empreinte and it's beautiful also, but I really want the Marine Rouge. The length of the strap is OK on me, since the footprint of the bag is small. The Pallas Clutch strap is too short for my liking, so l will need to get a longer strap. The store only had theI the clutch in noir. My SA is trying to locate the Marine Rouge Felicie and the Pallas Clutch in cherry. Hopefully she can locate both.
 
I’ve been wanting one of these since I was 15 or 16! But you know how you never prioritise these little classics over seasonal pieces- like you feel that you never have to hurry. Thought about this cutie yesterday and decided to buy it. Started using it today and wondered why I haven’t gotten it MUCH earlier! I love it!! :heart:
