Louis Vuitton Neverfull

I am considering treating myself to one of these Louis Vuitton bags.

  1. https://uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/neverfull-mm-damier-ebene-008116/N41358

or

  1. https://uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/neverfull-mm-monogram-007653/M40995

which do you prefer?

also I’m wondering whether to buy directly from store brand new or look at the second hand market… just concerned about authenticity.

I wouldn’t because they’re everywhere, I totally know I’ll be flamed but nothing says ’first luxe bag’ more than a Neverfull. There’s a reason all the LV SAs dislike selling them and will actively avoid someone wanting to buy this bag.

Go for something less saturated like a Vintage Chanel GST or Lady Dior, or if you love LV they used to do some great totes back in the early 00s like the Cabas Mezzo/ Alto.

Too late!

Maybe for the next one in a couple of years, I’ll upgrade to something like that!

I do love the vintage Chanel’s. Maybe for my 40th! (I’m 33)

Jesus, how judgemental. Why must people follow or need to be 'seen' with a particular anything? Buy what you love and enjoy it. What others think is of no consequence.

I hope you love your new bag op and you really enjoy it.

God I hate this sort of snobbery - the sales assistants hate selling them . FGS

Love the Rose interior goes well with the DE print. How does the quality feel to you?

I agree - I think it is better than the cherry red! It’s softer and classier in my opinion.

The quality feels good, I think it will last.

whether it was worth the price is debateable… but you know what, I love it, it makes me happy. That’s what matters.

I can’t wait to give it its first outing!

😬 they don’t earn commission on Canvas bags

RockaLock · 03/10/2023 13:12

Oh, I love the pale pink with that pattern! I had been thinking of getting the red interior, but I much prefer that one.

Great choice! And enjoy your new bag Smile

TodayInahurry · 03/10/2023 13:14

I have quite a few, husband used to buy them as presents when he was working abroad. Some are 20 plus years old and still look good.

Love the DE with the pale pink and that you have nails to match, perfect 👍.
Enjoy your new bag, they never do get full. Mine had soup and rolls in today.
To keep the inside clean have a look at mono liners and handbag angels for a felt liner.

Thank you lovely.

thanks for the bag liner recommendations. I was looking at handbag angels but don’t like the colours. Also I want one that has a zip up bit.

I was thinking this one:

Good luck with your bag. Enjoy.
Mine is still going strong, looks a bit worn - a life well ived Smile
Packed to the gills on a flight lately, I really thought the straps would come off the bag but they held.

Never mind the bag you're nails are fab.

Is it true that LV assistants don't get commission on canvas bags ???

Was in a Hermes in a city in US. There was so much unwelcome scrutiny security I might as well have been trying to access my account in Swiss bank in a Jason Bourne or Bond film 🙄

Might be worth putting an air tag in it.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I was watching this one when it was active as I've wanted one for at least 6 years!

My DH who never really buys me gifts actually gifted me a neverfull for Christmas!

It's a MM monogram but I think I want to exchange it to the damier ebene or azur and I'm not sure if I need a GM either....

How have you got on with yours OP?

I'm too far from a LV shop to buy in person
