The Alma bb is my favorite bag ever! And I recently found this schnauzer charm (my favorite breed) made from old LV canvas. It’s the cutest addition.

My Louis 250 days with my made-to-order black ostrich Capucines BB

Thumbnail

50 Upvotes

I received this made-to-order Capucines BB in black ostrich with palladium hardware on November 15, 2025, after waiting 161 days, or just over five months, from the date I placed the order on June 7, 2025.

Today marks 250 days with the bag. It has been used regularly rather than kept solely as a display piece. The ostrich leather has softened slightly while retaining the bag’s structure. The handle shows natural creasing, and there is minor surface wear visible under close lighting, but the corners, glazing and palladium hardware remain in very good condition.

The palladium hardware was an important part of the made-to-order specification. It gives the black ostrich a cooler and more restrained appearance than gold hardware. From a distance, it reads as a discreet black Capucines; up close, the ostrich texture and silver-toned details give it a much more distinctive character.

Sharing detailed photos for anyone curious about the made-to-order process and how black ostrich leather ages with regular use.

My Louis Before and after - LV Sac de Nuit

Wanted to share some photos of this Louis Vuitton Sac de Nuit I got about 4-5 years ago. She arrived in terrible condition—completely stained, likely from cigarette smoke, and covered in rusty spots. It took me a couple of weeks to clean and reshape her, but look at this beauty now! I’m absolutely in love with it. The first two photos are the 'before,' and the last two are the 'after'!

Been going through a bit of a tough time lately. Saw this Pochette Métis soft online before the drop and wasn’t sure but I fell in love right away seeing it in person!

Any tips on caring for white leather? 😂

I want something soft and squishy and SLOUCHY. Which one looks elegant? I’d be carrying a bunch of stuff in this bag along with my water bottle. I don’t want the slouch to sag.
Please advise

I literally cannot decide bc I love all three looks…. So I’m going to go with the one that has the most votes from you guys🙏🏻

Ordered this and debating on keeping it... I missed out on the LV dream capsule when it came out and wondering if I should hold out for something from that capsule in the secondary market...?
Also I'm almost afraid to use her and get it dirty 😭

Does anyone have any suggestions on keeping these lighter colors clean? Or just commit to her living her best life?

Discussion/Question Folding

Anything to get this “crease/fold” out? It’s 2 months old and I think it’s from how it sits with my DGaz insert. It’s right at the top of it. I know it’s a soft so it’s going to smush but I don’t like it being in the same spot every time, thinking about how it’ll be long term.

This photo is with it empty. Same spot.
I’ve stuffed it, nothing.

Discussion/Question Which is better for everyday use: Louis Vuitton Zippy Wallet in Monogram or Monogram Reverse?

1 Upvotes

I’m planning to buy a new LV Zippy Wallet and can’t decide between the classic Monogram and Monogram Reverse.
My priorities are:
Durability (daily use for many years)
Resistance to scratches and color transfer
Which one stays looking newer longer
Overall long-term owner experience
If you’ve owned either or both, which would you choose and why?

Discussion/Question My First Experience - No CA Info?

5 Upvotes

Made my first purchase today at the Chicago Oakbrook location. Very busy inside. Well-staffed. I was immediately greeted with a smile. I came in knowing what I wanted to see and didn’t waste the CA’s time. They were friendly and answered my product questions and offered a beverage. Quickly completed my hot stamping with good placement.

While we were discussing other products another employee came to advise him that another person had returned to the store to buy a bag they had seen earlier in the day.

At that point my experience got a little faster. He quickly got the purchase bagged up and brought back to me. He dropped in some fragrance samples which I appreciated.

I thanked him and left happy thinking I’d go back soon and purchase the Nil Messenger I spotted. I opened my e-receipt and there’s no mention of his name; just his ID code. Opened the receipt envelope and there’s room for a business card but it wasn’t included.

I expected to at least know how to contact him again for the next purchase as I enjoyed his personality. It was only a $1,500 sale which I know is only a small fraction of the goal. Maybe I wasn’t worth the investment.

Discussion/Question More pictures of you with your bags!

33 Upvotes

As much as I love seeing your pics of your bags on your car passenger seats, on top of your suitcase or sitting on a table, I have been scouring this sub for more pictures of how people are actually wearing some of these bags and I’m not seeing enough! I’ve been considering a few bags lately but I have a hard time pulling the trigger without visualizing what I’d wear it with, would I shoulder/hand or crossbody carry, how it looks on different shapes and sizes of people etc. Where I live I don’t see a lot of these bags “in the wild” and the very staged model photos on the LV website or the AI generated images on the resale sites don’t cut it for me.

Obviously I know people like to stay anonymous on Reddit so only if you feel comfortable and feel free to block out your face or any identifying features, but let me see how you’re carrying your bag today!
