I wouldn't say regret, but it's annoying that the card slots for my Victorine Wallet are still super tight even after a month of daily use. It's a great compact wallet (love the design), but I don't know what I'd do if the card slots don't loosen up anytime soon... [emoji20] Believe it or not, it does create a lot of hassle just trying to get your cards in and out of the wallet.


I doubled up the cards in each slot for a couple of days in the beginning. I have no tight slot issues after. Smooth getting it in and out. Try it if u havent yet. Might work for you [emoji4]
 
My vernis cles in cherry. Literally fit nothing, so hard to get cards in and out and cant fit more than 3 keys. Oh well .... i still keep her till today and wont let it go because she is so good looking even tho not functional for me 😅😅
 
oh no sorry to hear about ur Siracusa Pm:sad: I really love mine and luckily no color transfer so far but I do agree with you tho about the different canvas option. its such a pretty bag and I so wished it came in DE too bc there is always that fear of color transfer with DA


I don't own one but I have always liking siracusa pm , if only it comes in either DE or Monogram. One day hopefully they'll do it.
 
:sad:My mono delightful mm....I try to like it but don't like the slouchyness of it and feel it's too big. I go back and forth about keeping it since they no longer make the older model.,,I think it's a gorgeous bag and looks great when I see mod shots but I just don't ever use it and can't seem to make it work...


I know how you feel. I love the look of it. Un-worn. I love the idea of practical it is. But worn on my I cannot get over how not good it looks. The slouch is too much for me. My friend has one and on her it looks good. I much prefer the artsy over the delightful. I really enjoy carrying that. Very comfy hand carry. Easy to find my items.

Thank you! I'm trying to decide between the two. If they would sell a ZCP with colored interior that would make my choice so much easier lol. I don't care for the multicartes colored zipper so that's out.

I totally agree with you. It is almost impossible to get the cards out. I am afraid the cards might break in half because of the stress of trying to get them out. I am considering trying to return it. I think it is a manufacturing flaw. I love the size and the RB interior, but I can't deal with the hassle of getting the cards in and out. I am not happy with it at all.

Same for me, I could not get over the slouch..I loved everything about the bag but I just don't like slouchy bags and could not make it work...I love the artsy and really regret selling mine!
 
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.

+1. I haven't used mine for quite some time now. I try and force myself to wear it but I automatically want to switch into another one. I just think about how it's just 'money' sitting in my closet so I will have to sell it soon. Even though mine is also MIF
 
I sold my Speedy b de 25 after five months to FP - Opening too small and when I carried it crossbody I felt it didn't look right on me. I'm glad I sold it speedily, no pun intended and I got over selling it real quick by putting the money from the sale towards my recent shopping spree (pics below). I guess what I'm saying is sell!

Really? I thought it is a light weight bag.. Why it get heavy? It is because of the strap which is not comfortable to wear or becaus eyou put too many thing?
I thought to buy it to wear it mostly crossbody and for travel but the strap seems to be very stiff .. Will it get smoother in time?[/QUOTE
Yes, it is because the strap it super stiff. I used to have a speedy b30 DE, but sold it. When too many things in the bag, the strap just digged painfully into my shoulder leaving a red sore trace, though I was wearing a t-shirt. In colder weather when you wear a jacket or coat, that's ok.
 
I have 3 Speedy 25 B. The two canvas prints and the Empreinte. I used three of them while traveling. The Empreinte seemed heavy and not comfortable because the bag itself is much heavier than the canvas bags. I used my DE a lllllot while traveling but it was winter so I had a jacket on and in spring that I used it, putting a lot of stuff in it I had to take the strap left or right on my shoulder so as not to feel the pressure on one point all the time. The strap gets a little more comfortable after use but not very. I used the DA again while traveling this summer and again I stuffed the bag, because you know you buy all these little things and souvenirs. Although I wore sleeveless tops and sometimes strapless ones, it felt very comfortable cross body. The mono is not bandouliere so I don't use it that often. However, I would never sell my DE because it is a much more carefree bag. You don't have to worry about the vachetta leather and the weather. You don't mind if it rains or not. So to give you an idea of what I had inside my DE bag wearing it with a sweater and no jacket on and even not feeling the strap dig in: Emilie wallet, pochette accessoires (for make up items), mini pochette with various stuff, keys, sunglasses, small umbrella, iphone, coin purse, lipstick, another mini pochette with glasses and contact lenses, I think that is about it. Still I had no problem even without a jacket. I would highly recommend this bag. I also had the 30 B DE but sold it for the 25 as it never got full and it slouched much more than I liked.

I regret the Alma Bb in epi fuchsia. i love the style and the colour of the bag but It's very uncomfortable to me worn cross body because of the rigid base and also I could't find things inside. So I sold her and bought a mini Chanel
 
My regrets are a pair of Neverfulls, the ones that came out with the V on them.

I personally cannot stand the vachetta leather. I baby my bags and that just makes it impossible for me to just relax and carry the bag in peace.

I just love the neverfull so much and had been dying for a new design (like the Ikat). So when the V design ones came out I bought one in each color.

I carried the blue one for a bit, but the vachetta on the pink one was stark white, and it gave me panic.

I had even bought the matching charm for each one. I sold them and hope they went to good homes.

Lesson learned!


Here's a pic to show the color difference in the vachetta.
