What bag to choose?

[Fille]

Hello there

This September/October My boyfriend wants to buy me my very first designer bag and I have my mind and heart set on an LV.
Speedy - Alma - Tivoli are the ones that I am thinking of. So far. Have not been to the boutique yet. But can you tell me a bit about the cons/pros on each model? I have been reading this forum for ages now. Am slowly falling in lvoe.
Thank you in advance.
Xxx, Christina

The Speedy is always a perfect place to start!! I love mine.

I'd choose between a Tivoli or a Speedy. Tivoli is somewhat more structured than a Speedy. Not sure which can hold more depending on the size. The Tivoli PM is cute though.

i think you should get the speedy b, the speedy is such a classic and the speedy b have the long strap on it which is great

I have all three..

Speedy - Classic, and is at a lower price point. The only con is that its handheld only..

Tivoli - I have the GM and it's ridiculously big and I get bothered with the adjustable straps. The PM is cuter, might be worth getting this over the speedy because it's less common.

Alma - I'm not a fan of it in the monogram canvas. You have to keep in mind that the bottom might get dirty easily since it's entirely vachetta.

Go with the speedy in monogram.

The Speedy 30 was my first designer bag. Love it, it's a gorgeous bag. But it also was my first handbag. Choose wisely if you're not used to handbags. Once I got my Galliera that's when I realized how inconvenient having no shoulder strap can be. Maybe the Speedy B?

I would get a Speedy Monogram =)!

Speedy or speedy b in monogram I think will be a great first LV. Good luck.

Thanks, gals/guys. I think I am going to choose a Speedy!

I would start with a Speedy. You can get a strap as well, or get the Speedy Bandouliere.

I personally love the Speedy! It's so classic and timeless. I have the Speedy 25 but it's too small for me now and I plan on getting the 35. The Tivoli is also cute but you can't go wrong with the Speedy. IMO I like the Alma in Damier better than Mono. Good luck and don't forget to do a reveal!

I would suggest the Speedy in damier ebene. It's such a sharp bag, and it's weatherproof.

I think the winner will be Speedy 35 in Monogram Canvas
