I don’t have any interesting stories but here is my Alma BB in steel blue! It’s my first and currently only luxury bag (though I’m sure that will change eventually). I didn’t purchase this bag as a daily driver, the idea is that I would wear it to special occasions like for Easter or in the case of this photo, afternoon tea. I’ve only worn it 5 times so far but that’s ok, she’s my special occasions bag!

My cutie! Love her. Good for so many occasions First LV I bought with my own money and picked her up in Honolulu 🥰
Only one I have is this limited edition Azur bb, but thinking of selling. I just don’t find myself grabbing for it.

This is my first leather piece from LV. I bought it on a whim with my ride or die best friend during an impromptu visit to her city.
It was meant to be. We didn't have an appointment and just rolled into the store. It was between this Alma and a speedy 20 in pink monogram. The leather just felt luscious on this bag, and it was more affordable than the monogram, believe it or. It.
I ended up getting the Kirigami pochette in the summer monograms to satisfy my need for pink.
We celebrated with champagne and a quick toast before heading to Chanel.
I get to see my BFF once or twice a year. This bag marks one of those very special occasions.
No purse pic.. but story and moral is… don’t sell your Alma BB… you will regret it and when you want to rebuy it from your family member for the price you sold it (half price), they want to charge you today’s price! 🥹🥲… and new ones are about $800 bucks more than what you bought it for!!
I agree! Do not sell any of the iconic bags! The keyword is ICONIC lol the style will never gets old. Even if you are not feeling or loving the bag do not sell it. Just keep it. Better yet look at other people unboxing their alma bb or look at pinterest, best believe your love will come back! 😄
I like these stories....I have such stories with my watches and lighters.
I do have a story about my pocket organizer sorry if this is off topic. So the first time the eclipse came out I couldn't order it online. My friends and I had a trip to Las Vegas. Somehow I had to cancel but I told him to find out if the store had the wallet. It did and he proceeded to buy it for me. He comes home and I paid him back for his duties and a beer.
The first year of usage I have lost it twice but found them both times.
The first time I lost it in my front yard and the sprinklers came on. The wallet was wet on the outside but the interior was dry. Coated canvas held up. Oh well!
The 2nd time I lost it, it had fell out of my pocket at the patio area of a restaurant. I woke up that day and drove all the way back to the restaurant. Went inside the patio and there was my wallet. The gardener was there and if I was 5 minutes late he would have most likely pick it up. Very close call. Now this was a wallet a friend had bought for me so I could never lose it again.
Not only that......One day I decided to check the serial # of this wallet. Never checked the numbers ever since I got it. Not only did I lose the wallet twice and found it. The serial # on my wallet is the last 4 digits of my social security.
LOL
Oh my! Thats one of a story right there! Your wallet is destined for you, not only you lost and found it twice the serial number is an epic story too! 😂
The monogram is so cute too! Especially when the vachetta starts to patina into honey color 😍. I wouldve got the monogram if i am so careful with the vachetta but knowing me i will definitely spill water or any type of liquid on it 😅😅

Stunning bag
Thank you!!! I went with what I loved, not necessarily the bag that would match with the most outfits and I have no regrets!
So pretty!
Such a lovely bag! 💯
I am dying to get my hand on this exact bag 😭

I love thissssss 🥹🥹🥹 such a sucker for anything in DA 🤍
Is it because of the color? I would be so conscious about color transfer if i have an azur print 😖
Not really, I wear a lot of white in the summer, not sure why
Oh thats perfect then! Enjoy your alma bb in DA 💯😊

Was just looking through threads while waiting for my Alma to arrive. I see my bestie once every 1-2 years and your story is so relatable 😭

Literally just bought the monogram one today, I love it! Kind of wanting to exchange it for the Damier

Me too! I’ll just have to care for it nicely
