Wow! That's quite a lot of bags! lol Hopefully one day I'll get there. That's what I've heard. I'm not so concerned about my phone fitting as much as sometimes I just want to carry the bare minimum. Like when I go shopping. Do you happen to know if a Victorine Wallet would fit in the mini pochette? I would totally go for the larger one, but I don't really carry a whole lot of anything with me that I would put in there. lol

I only started with LV since January and so far have 5 Items from them. I think I'm a collectamanic by nature. It's like a form of hobby or escapism to me. I really appreciate design especially with a eye for classics or future classics that itself gives me a buzz. It doesn't just apply to bags. But I think LV pretty much will keep me satisfied in that area for a long time as I have a lot to catch up and learn. Part of all the research is what makes it exciting.

It's addictive! I know I collect things too. I love that LV just is timeless. I got my first bag back in 2012 followed with 2 wallets. Lol I eventually ended up selling them all, and here I am years later, addiction is restarting.

A youtube beauty guru/blogger started mine back in 2012. Her husband bought her the cosmetic GM in Damier Ebene as a gift and I was like :loveeyes::loveeyes: over it. That sparked my interest in Louis Vuitton. My first purchase ended up being around 6 months later: the Neverfull MM and the Cosmetic GM (both in DE). The rest is history...and a love story :heart:

I've been in love with LV classic monogram since high school (mid 80's) when I saw a girl carrying an LV Speedy. I bought a "look-a-like" that didn't last very long. My sister bought the Cabas Piano in the early 2000's, and I have wanted a Cabas Mezzo ever since. I bought, and sold, several other LV styles over the years until I finally found the Mezzo pre-loved (with inner zip pocket) this past Christmas. I'm SO happy with her. My monogram collection also includes the Toiletry Pouch 19, French Continental wallet (the long one), and a Pouchette Clefs in red vernis. The next item on my LV wishlist is then Speedy B 25. Thanks for letting me share.

Watching Mean Girls growing up. I was a huge Lindsay Lohan fan and she carried an LV pochette in the movie. I got super obsessed and now here I am.

My story is similar. I used to watch a reality show called "Newlyweds" with Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey. She was obsessed with her White Multicolor speedy bag. I loved how it looked and ever since then have loved Louis Vuitton brand. My first bag was bought in 2008, a Monogram Neverfull MM. I have since sold it and bought newer bags but I cannot believe how "cheap" it was compared to today's market.

I actually do not know :P I do know that I considered Louis Vuitton THE luxury brand. Maybe I started getting into it because a lot of people in my school had LV. I didn't have the money to buy it back then, but in 2011 I bought my first LV item, a Speedy 30 in DE. I'b\ve only ever bought a used agenda after that. In 2014 I also bought myself a pocket organizer, then didn't buy anything for a while. However by the end of 2016 I started stalking the site and became hooked. I've made 5 purchases from Dec. 2016 to March 2017: Mini Pochette, Victorine Wallet, Caissa Card Holder, Multi Cles and the PM in empreinte. The PM got me on ban island, then I discovered this FB group and bam! addicted again. Bought a lot of luggage tags with heat stamps, they are my addiction now :D

I adore the Neverfull! That's on my list, but I keep going back and forth on it because as much as I love that style of bag, I also sometimes just want a zipper. Lol I'm always curious as tro how secure things are in it. Do you have a bag organizer for yours?

Lol it's so addictive! I've decided that another Speedy in DE is my next actual bag purchase. The mini pochette will likely be my next purchase later this year. I'm guilty of owning the Victorine as well. Lol I have 2 actually!

It's a great place isn't it? What I love most is it's a great way to make friends, and also become more educated on a brand. I know that I have personally learned more here about bags than I've been interested in then probably anywhere else.

Yes! I learned so much about LV, and I felt super confident when I made my first purchase!

For some reason my daughter's tiny Vavin kicked started my addiction several years ago. It was such a small unassuming (for LV) bag and I loved it.
