Unfortunately, my Speedy B25 in DE. Every time I wear it crossbody, I have to switch to hand held because it feels so heavy after awhile. The only reason I'm holding on to it is because it's MIF, but I should get over it and just sell it.

Sadly, I have to agree. I had some other issues as well and haven't missed it one bit since I sold it :-(

Speedy B 25 Empreinte in the color Infini. I bought it because I LOVE my Speedy B 25 DE, but the Empreinte version is soooooo HEAVY it defeats the purpose of carrying a smaller bag. It's so heavy that carrying it cross body is just not an option for me and the hardware, although beautiful, is heavy and squeaky and loud.

Ebene speedy 35 bandouliere. I originally bought it in the classic version and thought it was too big. I then bought the monogram in 30 and thought the opening was a little too small. I kept it but bought he speedy 35 in the bandouliere version foolishly thinking it would look dressier/smaller bc of the extra hardware. Boy was I wrong. STILL looked too big. Sold it at a loss.

I may have mentioned one of these before in this thread, but thought I'd consolidate all of my mistakes in one spot :p:
Totally PM: Too small, top caved in, side tabs curled up
Speedy 25/30: Just can't do handheld only
Neverfull GM: Too deep and wide, even when cinched
Turenne PM: Worried about tabs curling up, bag caved in against my body when wearing on my shoulder, making one pleat look weird

I regret buying Alma Bb DE with brown lining. For two years ago LV changed the red lining to brown and SA told me that the red never comes back. However, red is back and I adore the red lining in DE bags, but I' stuck with brown one :nogood:

I've purchased my first LV bag 2y ago, and it is speedy b 30 DE. I feel like it was an impulse buy after watching lots of youtube video and also reading tpf, people say get the speedy as the starting piece or it's a classic and if u can only have one LV bag go with speedy. And turned out the same as the above comment , is so dang uncomfortable to wear crossbody with my stuff in it and i don't carry much !

My second bag is delightful MM DE, I was set to get a neverfull but my husband and the SA was telling me that the DE is prettier and much comfy with the wider strap , and turned out the strap is so hard and uncomfortable too. Arghhhh..

Bought an eva clutch preloved from a good friend , everyone said it's a must in the collection , very versatile , and it turned out the strap is way too long for me to wear crossbody.

Last piece, pochette metis. Yea yea everybody lining up to get it , it's beautiful , it's versatile can use as crossbody , shoulder bag, handheld but now i feel like it's not my style.

I really really really need to learn about what i really want in a bag, not because what everyone else say.

I only have one other designer bag, balenciaga city and i Love it.


If i could change it ,
I rather get the retiro instead of speedyb and i rather get the neverfull instead of the delightful. And as the pochette metis hmmm maybe i rather get something more casual , if only the siracussa come in different canvas.

Nonetheless they are all beautiful bags [emoji4] .

Seems like you must find out what you like before buying more :)

I made two designer bag purchases which I regret in the beginning. Luckily only half expensive as LV bags but still. This made me think through what I want and what I like with bags and I also read a lot about "10 bags you need in your collection" and headlines like that. I also made some rules: I always have to research a bag before I buy it (must need to know all the pros and cons) and also I must sleep about a bag at least one night (I tend to do impulse purchases, not great when it comes to a lot of money). And never ever settle with something that is not exactly what you wanted.

After all that I haven't done any purchase that I regret and I use all my bags :)

My Soft Lockit MM Python Noir. I try to work it in rotation with other bags but every time I get dressed it just does not flow with my attire. I purchased site unseen from my SA(who happened to relocate to another LV out of the state) about a year and half ago and still have not used her.
