Hello everyone,

First, thank you for whoever will be reading my story. You guys are always good advice! My very first LV purchase was thanks to the help of this forum.

I've got 3'600 USD store credit to spend but I have to decide until tuesday. Long story short: my mother's Soft lockit PM has been given back to the store and I can choose stuff :biggrin: (...my husband is also willing a wallet and a belt :cursing: lol)

I currently own : Speedy 35 Mon Monogram (my first LV :heart:), Pochette Metis Monogram, Neverfull MM Monogram, Alma BB Epi black, Eden PM Epi yellow/blue.

I am 29 year old, married, with a baby and I am not a fan of the big LV logo collection.

Here are some of my preferences :
-Monogram Multi-pochette in kaki, Metis Pochette in Reverso, black empreinte or tourterelle, Néonoé black Epi or Monogram

-Which bags would you recommend to add to my current collection (from the above listed or others) and what are your pros and cons for each:nuts:?

Thank you again, as I said before you guys are always good advice!

From your list I would chose Metis empreinte black first because you don‘t have a black LV, second would be Metis empreinte Tourterelle. They are both beautiful and versatile. And the black Metis for me it‘s my most used bag.

Thank you! Well yes I have the alma BB epi black but I don't use much anymore as I got tired of it after using it a lot. I love my Pochette metis also, so versatile!
I do not own any Empreinte because I don't know how it will look after years of usage. Are you happy with the looks of yours?

Tuesday ??? They didn't give you long to use this credit !! Anyway, if it were me, I could use it in 10 mins...:P

Ahah, yes. I was supposed to choose right away but impossible for me to choose something that fast. So my lovely SA gave me until tuesday to decide...

I am curious now , what would you buy :graucho: ?

Well, I have a decent-sized bag collection, so I wouldn't get a bag but probably some fine jewelry. I'd choose 2 of the Idylle Blossom or Idylle LV stud earrings, which would leave some left over for a nice bag charm or SLG. I have held off on LV fine jewelry since I find it pricey for what it is, and I prefer colored gemstones (Le Vian). Anyway, whatever you decide to splurge, I know it will make you feel fabulous !! Enjoy and please let us know what made your heart sing !! :love::heart:

Since you’re a young mom I’m saying the multi Pouchette Accessories in kaki. Hands free is very helpful when you’re a mom and I like they can be used separately also. Also I think with your age you’ll be able to really rock that strap and look really hip. I have 3 Pouchette Accessories and use them all the time! Second choice would be the NeoNoe’ in monogram with the black strap (I have it in the carmel strap and love how it sits on me and can be worn crossbody or just on the shoulder). I say the monogram since you already have a black epi Alma BB, but the black strap and tie still gives you a fabulous look. Third choice would be the Pouchette Métis in empriente noir. Saying third because you already have a PM. I also have a monogram PM and love it and have contemplated getting it in empriente, but then I find a different style I want before I duplicate a bag. Plus, if you’re contemplating canvas at all I’d consider getting those since they have been harder to get lately. Have fun deciding!

Thank you for your input. You made me want the Multi pochette since last night, I was thinking how I could mix the strap with my other bags, I love that strap style. so first thing in the morning I messaged my SA and she’s been telling me its impossible to get:frown:. I really don’t want to « settle » on another bag just for the sake of it…
Now I’m unsure for the neonoé because it’s too classic and I want something a little more trendy.
so lost now :facepalm:

Speedy B22 Black Empreinte Leather? It is quite cute, perfect for carrying plenty of items and the strap is detachable so you can use it for your other LV Bags IMO:biggrin:

Thanks a lot for your input. The speedy b22 is lovely but I avoid lambskin as it is too difficult for me to take care of. I am thinking Pochette Metis Empreinte in black with a different shoulder strap?

I think the PM is a very practical bag, especially with kids. It is too big on my frame, but you already own a PM, so you know that it fits. If you love the bandouliere strap style you could get such a strap to wear with the PM.
Or the Multi Pochette in black Empreinte with a bandouliere strap, did you consider that? Or the Multi Pochette Monogram with pink strap? You could still get the khaki or black strap extra. Good luck! :)

You gave yourself a great idea. Metis with multipochette strap or other wider strap will be an awesome combination. Cannot wait for your reveal on which bag you decide in the end:hbeat:

I love the Idylle Blossom jewellery! But every time I want to get a piece, a bag gets in the way. And as you mentioned, the price is quite steep.
