I can’t argue with logic, so my unpopular opinion is that I absolutely love ❤️ my Neverfulls. Avoided them until 6 months ago for the usual reasons, then ordered the Mon Monogram to mark an occasion. Once I used it I didn’t want to put it away! Wandered into LV (yeah, right) and lo and behold the day’s deliveries were being sorted. Got this never before touched (!) ebene that totally does it for me. Love the simplicity, price point, and carefree way I feel carrying it. I like being able to see my contents at a glance, and use the pochette as a wallet attached to the D ring for security.
 
My unpopular opinions:
1. Don't like the Speedy B. The original Speedy is classic and gracious. The Speedy B may be utilitarian, but to the detriment of the original design.
2. Can't stand Reverse. The light brown color ("peanut butter," said my SA) isn't pretty to me.
3. Apparently, my 3rd unpopular opinion -- I like the Neverfull. I don't have one in use (I had a DA that's seen better days), but I'd like a Mon Monogram (if I could only decide among all the color choices). Not every bag has to be "special" and it's very useful!
 
I do not like anything that has a flap, whether it be a bag or an slg, due to the known glazing issues that seem to eventually plague them all. I only have zipped slg items and bags.

I do not like anything with a folded corner. Also seems like problems waiting to happen.

I feel like I am the only one who does not like the NeoNoe. It sticks out too much and looks like a cheap version of the classic Noe.

I can’t stand the reverse print either! Honestly it reminds me of vomit. I can’t help but think that. Just my personal opinion.

I also don’t like mini pochettes. I know they are versatile but I don’t understand why the look has to be so unfinished across the zipper pull. Plus I do not like the sound of the canvas and chain. It’s like nails on a chalkboard or when I hear people chew loudly. Very annoying. Sorry!![/QUOTE]
 
1. I don't like the Neverfull- although that seems to be a popular unpopular opinion.
2. Not a fan of twillies
3. I don't know why people need multiple LV card cases or wallets. I understand that no one "needs" LV at all, but I suppose I don't see how anyone could actually ever need more than one card case at a time.
4. I think the old multicolor line was quite gaudy

I don't like the NeoNoe either. I feel like the edge around the opening looks unfinished. Plus the zipper compartment in the middle messes up the storage capabilities. I'm a diehard Noe fan.
 
Oh you mentioning Pochette Metis made me think of the reverse monogram canvas which I absolutely hate. I think that’s my one stand - I can see myself buying any canvas, any leather but not that one. I really dislike it.

I do like SLGs though! I like to keep my bags super organised and sometimes when I am carrying a tiny bag my wallet won’t fit (i like to have a big wallet normally) so coin purses are perfect! And different pouches help me keep all my things separate but organised. So i have a makeup pouch, an electronics pouch (for my chargers), a key holder etc. doesn’t have to all be LV or branded but i do carry a bag within a bag.
Agree with you!
 
Some of the stalking and buying things you maybe don’t even want, and sometimes in multiples, is obsessive and weird.

And I hate the term lvoe.

I think a lot of people are trying to make that scam bag work because it’s trendy and they look like fashion victims.
Agree! The other day one lady was like I bought this because I saw how much people like this item over here. I was like WOW. I had to comment. They welcomed me to leave the thread lol. But I ignored their replies. Just gave them my opinion you take it or you don’t/don’t post.
 
Just because things are trendy, doesn't mean millennials are going to like it. I'm surprised at all the millennial bashing still, the oldest millennials are probably getting close to 40 now...
(Phew definitely overreacted a little but Yes, I'm sensitive to generation bashing since I AM a millennial but never identified with the stereotypical millennials that everyone loves to bash...)
Oldest millennials... close to 40 now...


oh well


I’m triggered lol!

I agree I recently got the onthego giant reverse and I like the regular brown side better. So I’m still debating about the bag since I like the style of it.
 
Mine is the multi Pochette (scam bag). I don’t really appreciate the “busyness” of it. Too much going on
Also, I think capucines are overrated. It is hard for me to be sold on it.
I used to hate the Pochette Métis but it grew on me in a very special way. I prefer the empreinte version rather than canvas. So I went for it this year hoping glazing issues are a thing of the past lol. Considering getting another one.
nothing against Neverfulls. They were my first LV purchases and I still love both. They are very practical work bags and they can handle a lot of beating.
Vachetta leather- oh my!!!! I can embrace the beauty in it and the historical nostalgia behind it but man, that thing is a pain..... if well handled it can be beautiful but if you mess up, it will be horrendous. My 2 cents
Bag inventory - I get overwhelmed with the amount of bags LV has been “throwing up” lately. To me personally, that is a turn off. Some people thrive in all the options and the large amount of different bags. To me, it gets me to turn away.
Again, these opinions are completely subjective and we need to approach everyone else’s opinions the same way If we perceive it as an attack on us this thread can get ugly.
