The iconic silhouette of
the LOUIS VUITTON SPEEDY BANDOULIÈRE 30 in the Damier Ebene canvas- What is not
to admire? With its golden colored hardware, one continuous piece of
canvas that wraps around the body of the bag, and striking red interior, this
baby has it going on!
It measures 11.8″ ×
8.2″ x 6.6″ and currently costs $1450.00. The LOUIS VUITTON
SPEEDY BANDOULIÈRE 30 has a generous strap enabling me to wear it over the
shoulder or cross-body, but what I REALLY love is the look and comfort of
wearing it on the crook of my arm. So refined! The double zippered
opening of the handbag is generous, but not overly so. It does not run
the entire length of the bag, which I find helps to keep everything within the
bag. This has been beneficial when I slammed on my brakes and my handbag
went flying towards my dash!
I enjoy the ease of the
leather on the Damier Ebene rather than the vachetta leather – that really
helps with making this luxurious workhorse carefree. The purse is
lightweight and coordinates easily with most outfits. I elected to use a
nice bag organizer to help me find my essentials in this beautiful, but
slouchy/unstructured bag. I have also made good use of the interior
pocket! In addition, this is one of the few purses that I actually use
the d-ring to attach my key fob so that I can find it easily.
I thoroughly delight in
the details of the brass lock and key set as well as the embossing of
“Louis Vuitton” on the rivets of the handbag So
thoughtful! The care that has been taken to make this bag is obvious, and
the design is everlasting.
In summary, the LOUIS VUITTON SPEEDY BANDOULIÈRE 30 is a wonderful grab and go or travel bag. It can hold an immense amount of items like SLGs, water bottles, a scarf, and a good book. It wears well and is relatively weatherproof, which means it gets a TON of use. I have had occassions where it had to be folded and packed tightly in my suitcase. When I arrived at my destination, I was able to shake/fluff it back in shape without any difficulty – no creases.
I adore my timeless piece of art and smile every time I swing it over my shoulder or grab it by its beautifully rounded leather handles ?
