Definitely red - you'll find it more quickly digging for it in a bag!

Im annoyed with LV for increasing the prices again. I was considering a wallet but not sure if I want it that much to by it after the price has been raised.

^^cause of the euro/dollar ... most fine leather goods will be affected in the spring...imo it is better to buy now if u are thinking of getting it...the prices could only go higher

 

[vintage_princess]

thanks annabel, thats what I thought too. Not much point in waiting for it to be more expensive in the future.

 

[jun3machina]

i hate inflation!

i hate inflation!

but it increases your income, and deflation can be dangerous...

 

[jun3machina]

true...but price hikes due to increase in material costs sucks....just like stuff here in the US costing more because of the oil prices.....

Agreed. My wallet, Filofax and makeup bag are all black, and the linings in handbags are usually dark, and I'm always digging around.

(I know, I should have thought of that first....)

Please I need your advice. I am considering buying this handbag, it's the epi bucket in black leather (exists also in red). I want a shoulder bag that I can use everyday to work. It costs about 780 euros.

It is my first LV and do not want anything with logos. I love the look of epi leather, but you think it looks too "severe"? Does anybody have it.

A million thanks.

i love the epi leather but im not too fond of this shape....

I do own an LV bucket (not epi though). It took me a while to get one because I wasn't sure of the shape either but I after I finally did get it, I can't believe I lived without one for so long!!! My only concern about this bag is the open top. Sometimes when the bag tips, things (not all) fall out. If you are afraid that the shape is too "severe" for you, may I suggest an epi Noe or Petit Noe. Very nice, romantic shape, holds a ton and one of LV's oldest desings. Give it a look and good luck with your decision.

I've heard that one strap tends to fall off the shoulder with the bucket. as with the noé the drawstring can be a PITA if you have to open/close it all the time. but as for the designs both are nice

Thank you both Ambidextrous and Love$2shop! I had a Noe-like bag yeaaaars ago, It was very practical but I want something different now.

Just a quick ID check please.. I'm after the proper name for this LV denim bag.. I know it's something like Baggy Denim GM, and comes in a smaller size (the PM?).
