with a Palm Springs MM backpack and a Pallas Clutch with black leather, for travelling purposes?

or would you keep the PM and just save up for the backpack and buy it later (or just get a large carry on?)

I have 5 kids, thus need stuff with me and we always travel by plane... what stresses me out about the Pochette Metis is the ongoing mentioning of quality issues and I am worried it will date too quickly, but it is so pretty.

the backpack plus clutch is a safe choice, plus neither has vachetta, which I personally can't handle, however they are lacking the umph factor

Mine has no issues and I don´t think it will date. To me it looks timeless.

thanks dear, good to hear your input :smile:.

I am debating whether I should not just keep the PM and buy a luggage carry on (Not LV) in black that I would use instead of the backpack, would certainly be more shoulder friendly...

This sound like a great option. The PM can carry all your essentials easily and everything else can be packed into the carry on :smile: .
I am not a fan of backpacks, also because I got robbed once when I had it on my back and did not notice someone behind me opened it and got my wallet :sad: .

My friend has a Pochette Metis and loves it! Keeps everything handy when she is on the go. Let me ask her if she has had any quality issues!

That's what I am always afraid of when using a backpack!!! It's so scary what people will do!

oh I hadnt considered this. i just thought that my youngest is a newborn and i would take him in the baby carrier so a backpack is a bit much

I wouldn't replace the PM with the backpack...if anything will look dated quickly, it will be the backpack, as they are quite trendy now (in my opinion). Keep the PM!!

well, I called my local LV (I bought in EUrope but currently reside in the ME) and the SA on the phone said they have the items in I am interested in but whether I was sure, since the PM has such a long waiting list. we agreed I should come and check out backpack etc in person, so I can see whether it works for me before I decide what to do :smile:

thanks, yes they are handy, I have been using a MbMJ nylon one but wonder if in the long haul using a carry on is not a more convenient option

Personally, I travel most of often with a backpack only. It's much more practical than my Pégase or my Keepall. Even though I love both of them.
