LV???

I'm thinking about getting a LV bag. I'm between the Neverful, trivoli or a speedy.

I was just wondering if the Monogram Louis are leather??

Those that have the Neverfuls what size do you have and are you happy with your decision?

Those with speedys do you find it a PITA that you can't put it on your shoulder and that you carry it on your wrist??

I think that just about covers my questions for now! Thanks for your feedback!

The handles and straps on the monogram bags are leather and depending on which bag you get there could be leather accents but the main part of the bags are canvas. I have the largest Neverful. I really like it but I find the handles on the shoulder are narrow so sometimes they dig in a bit. Otherwise it is a great bag. As for the speedy, it can be a PIA to carry so I don't use mine too much but I think now they actually make one with a shoulder strap option. I know that one is more money, just not sure how much.

Re: LV???

I have the LV Neverfull in the monogram print and I love it!! It's a great bag to throw in everything you need because it literally fits all you could possibly need... I have the medium one and I think it's perfect. I also love how I could just reach my hand in and grab out what I need so easily. It just has one little zipper compartment which is where I keep my cell phone so I'm not digging and searching for it among everything else in there.

For me, being able to put the bag on my shoulder is important. I have bags that I can't put on my shoulder that I still love, but it's definitely an advantage. Also, just the trim is leather. With the monogram print and I believe the damier azul (is that the lighter one?), the leather is untreated, so it will show any random mark, etc.. and it also gets darker as it ages. With the damier, the leather is treated so you don't have that issue.

I'd say go for the tivoli gm, it's a unique looking bag and I know I see a lot less people carrying it then the other 2 you mentioned (those are nice too). The gm unlike the pm will allow you to put the straps over your shoulders.

I have the largest Neverful in the Monogram print. Like others have said, the accents are leather but the main part of the bag is canvas, although it has a leather look on the outside. It only looks like canvas on the inside of the bag.
For me, it's the perfect size. I can throw all my stuff for the day in it, and when it's not full I can fold in the sides, so it's not as bulky.

Re: LV???

I have the Neverfull MM and the Speedy 30. I feel like I wasted money buying the Speedy because I'm an over the shoulder bag person. All of my LVs are in the Damier pattern. My Neverfull is the ebony.

I was between the speedy and the neverful. I ended up getting the medium neverful and I'm so glad I did! I haven't used it yet...its my christmas present so its away until then. But based on the size and style I know its perfect for me.

I have the medium speedy & I love it. I know its not for everyone but I dont mind not being able to put it on my shoulder. I would love the medium monogram neverful. I am currently saving up for it.

Re: LV???

me personally i love to carry my bags, i have had a speedy now for almost 7 years, its still in great shape, and for a while i used it every single day, i still use it a lot.

Most of my bags are handheld.

I find shoulder bags annoying but i do have some
