Louis Vuitton

So, I have an opportunity to get an LV, at a discounted price, but still very
My question is, which one?

Speedy vs Neverfull

I would prob get the biggest of whichever.

Then ? #2 is, Monogram vs Damier?

Thoughts? Advice? Which do you have and love?

I want the one I will get the most out of..

Thaaaaaaanks!

First off, awesomeeee hook up!!!

I used gift cards from work 5.5 years ago to get myself the largest monogram speedy and I have to say that it has seriously been the only bag I've needed for the whole time period! Yes its def $$$ but you will make sooooooo much use out of it!

I LOVE both styles but I am obvi bias towards speedy....I use mine everyday and like 95% of the times when I'm going out (on occasion I'll take a clutch)

The handles and trim get soft and dark and even better with age once its broken in a bit! You will LOVE your new bag!!

At this point in the game, I'd prob get the damier over the monogram.

So my vote goes to damier speedy!!!

Re: Louis Vuitton

I recently got the smaller speedy monogram and love it. I had to ask Heather about the handles changing color lol.

Depends what you're using it for. I have a long dirty commute and need something bigger and tougher, yes for what it cost this bag better last FOREVER, but my LV is for weekends/going out etc.

BUT the neverfull looks like such a perfect work bag. Nice hook up!

My cousin got one for Christmas & after much debate she picked the Speedy 25. She usually has her bag full of so much crap but her boyfriend told her that this bag better last her the rest of her life so she organized it well & she was able to carry everything she needed with lots of space to spare. She also choose that one because she drives to work & doesn't need to carry lots with it like if she was taking the train everyday. Her boyfriend also insists that she use the bag all the time. I guess for that price she might as well get his money worth.

Re: Louis Vuitton

I actually have both

I have the speedy in the monogram-it was the first lv i bought, and honestly i hardly ever use it-it's heavy and uncomfortable to carry around

last year i bought the neverful in the damier, and i LOVEEEEE it i use it all the time, and have used it for travel-you can fit everything in that bag its ridiculous

I actually loved it so much that i bought it in the gray damier for my bday this year so i actually own 2 damier neverfulls...

Re: Louis Vuitton

I have 3lvs. One is the round barrel large (papilion in the monogram) and the other is a small over the shoulder (my first lv) in monogram too. On our hm, dh got me the large speedy and I chose the brown damier since I had the other 2 monograms. I LOVE the speedy damier! My next one is the alma!

Re: Louis Vuitton

Thanks all!!! But you didn't make my decision any easier!!!! My true love is the Galliera but that's out of my budget.

guuuyyyysss... c'mon. choose one for me.

This bag will not be used for my work commute, but for nights and weekends.
to add.. we'll be TTC later this year, so for all those mom's out there, would the Neverful be more practical when also carrying around a baby, diaper bag, etc??

Re: Louis Vuitton

Galliera is hot too! Joanna was just deciding between that and the trevi and she chose the trevi-its gorgeous!!!

I think anyway u go with an lv, u can't go wrong!

Eta: if I had to pick between neverfull and speedy, I'd pick speedy. I personally am not a fan of bags that don't zipper or close fully on the top. Jmo
