I bought hooks that go on the head rest. If no one is in the passenger seat, I hang it in front. If there is someone, I swivel it to the back and hang it behind the seat. Also have the hooks in my boyfriend’s car so that I can hang my bag behind the driver seat.

No prob! They truly look amazing for the bags and don't collect dust as much, so I don't even need dustbags. For your SLGs, you can get marble trays :)

Love the nylon organizers that are light and don't take up much room! Saved that gold chain strap in my cart in case I need it for my Felicie 😊
I forgot which YouTuber linked these bandeaus, but it looked cute on her bag. There are lots of others on Amazon in many colors and sizes...I agree with you and would rather spend extra money on more bags than on accessories 👜
As a fountain pen user/carrier, pens can definitely leak. Ballpoints/rollerballs can also leach ink on to a surface if the tip is touching it. I carry whatever pens I'm using that day in a leather zip case, just in case one of them decides to randomly spew ink when I'm not using it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NDCL3Z9/
I also use a felt organizer in most of my LV/designer bags, both to help keep their shapes and to catch anything else that might leak or escape the leather case.
I found it on Amazon. It looks exactly like the silver hardware as on my Keepall XS. Very high quality and heavy. Definitely not made of plastic or resin. I got the small size but it is still very big and chunky. I think the large size will be way too heavy and too big. Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08J4BCNBN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I would recommend using Apple Brand Garde on vachetta leather (https://www.amazon.com/Apple-Brand-Repellent-Conditioner-Protector/dp/B00B6F9KXG/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=apple+guard&qid=1594394228&sr=8-5) to avoid getting water spots on it. You can also tie a twilly around the vachetta to match your personal style
It depends on the store, not every boutique has a repair suite. You can always go through the app as well to get a quote for current repair price/wait times to send it off to the repair hub.
Alternately, if the ring-like part on the zipper slide that holds the pull is still intact, you could also get a removable replacement pull such as this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09JSGGX7J/
I ended up going that route with my vintage speedy 25 so I could still use the zipper and wait til later to send it in for the full leather replacement/zipper fix that it needs when I'm willing to lose it for a year :) The aged bronze pull matches the hardware perfectly and doesn't stand out at all, but they come in several colors and finishes.
How about a purse hanger so you don't worry about putting it on the ground? Admittedly, I usually use this with bags smaller than a Neverful, but I like the peace of mind.
Bandouliere all the way! The strap is a blessing! I ran into the same situation of using a public bathroom and had nowhere to hang my bag and found this gem on Amazon : Clipa2 Bag Hanger, Polished Gold https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016212UZ8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share It’s so convenient !
Lol ask away! It’s from Amazon! Here’s the link: White Metal Storage Cabinet, 72"... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YRPRTVP?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
It feels very well made to me! I have been researching cabinets for MONTHS and couldn’t find one that was well-made that wasn’t ridiculously high priced and was actually in stock and I was so excited to find this! It’s literally perfect. The shelves are adjustable so you can change the height as needed for your bags!
I think you should stick to vintage/pre-loved and revive it. It’s pretty fun and satisfying to know you gave new life to an old piece. Plus, the LV bags of today seem to be lower quality than vintage.
I restored a couple of bags and wallets.I’ve used this stuff to clean and polish coated canvas from both Gucci and Louis Vuitton. Just try to avoid getting it on the vachetta. For polishing old/tarnished hardware, use a cotton swab and some brasso. For odor, the most effective method is supposedly to turn the bag inside out and leave it in the sun for a few hours. The heat and the sun should kill any bacteria or whatever may be causing the odor. I say supposedly since I’ve never tried this. Good luck!
Hi! It’s from Amazon. Here is the link, but I’d check out other sellers. It looks like others are selling the same/similar for less

You can pick different sizes!
its this one! was debating on doing a baby pink just cause it'd be something cite a& different & the pink is like 17$ lol but the baby blue one just seems to be such a perfect match!
Yes you will be amazed how nice and pretty it looks when clean and it’s kind of fun doing it!
This is the method i’ve found works best
Using this or something similar to first wipe down the zipper and pulls. I cut the cloth into strips as it’s a bit greasy so working in smaller sections is more manageable. For the actual zipper this is usually enough so i stop there.
On the pulls I use Barkeeper friend (you can buy it anywhere it’s super cheap) and dip a qtip in water then dip qtip in the BF and gently start rubbing the product on the zipper then dry it off. Not a paste just enough to dampen the qtip is all you need. Would not recommend using on the actual zipper as it will look almost like a toothpaste stain on the fabric part once dried.
Last I use this the same way using the TINIEST little bit on a qtip to lightly polish. It gives the nice clean brass a super glossy look. Just dry with paper towel or microfiber cloth until the polish is completely removed.
You may still notice on the zipper a slight color difference between the tarnished and non tarnished parts but more of an outline nothing drastic. I hope this helps!
Thank you!!! I might try wearing it out and see how I feel hehe. Yay :)
Oh that! I bought it from Japanese Amazon but it’s it’s this one :) I like it! In the photo it’s open but it actually folds in half so it is really compact! The top speed is only 6km/h but I don’t use it for running, just brisk walking. If I’m honest, I’m not very experienced with treadmills so I wish I had gotten one with a handle :( I feel a bit wobbly but I just hold into a chair haha. But I’ll probably get used to it. It’s really really useful tbh. It was about $500 though!!
Here’s a bottom shaper for the 30 on Amazon.
These are amazing and the only thing I use for my LV bags! They promote air circulation and keep your bags dust free!

I use this cube design comes in various sizes, I have the biggest one which is 40 cubes, the cubes are 14x14, I have probably on average 3 bags in each cube
This is the one I purchased. They come in different sizes so make sure you find the one that fits the speedy 30. I have the speedy 25 and the organizer fits perfectly. I don’t keep many items in my bag either and I worried about the bag looking “hollow” when I carry it. The organizer fixed that issue immediately.

Yes sure, the long strap is the adjustable shoulder strap 16 mm monogram.I don't have a link for it. It's no longer available on the lv website :( I guess they discontinued it. Heres for the link for the pearl :)

I use Chemical Guys Leather Cleaner and Conditioner just a little bit and it works wonders it’s for leather car seats but it’s very good and safe for bags, shoes and so on.
What about something like this?
I’d also try to measure and see what the maximum dimensions you can fit are
Yes I did! I tried 2 different sizes. I was between the large and the slender large. Went with the large because I wanted it to fully fit the shape. Here’s the link!
I just get the NiteEyez lights that ppl use for walking their dogs at night and it also works well too! helps for speedy cuz it's dark at night in there.

This is my worst nightmare! Try this leather odor remover from Amazon. I used it on a musty LV wallet I bought second hand and it worked pretty well.
The logo looks like it was from the 2013 season. I found a matching logo from this Amazon listing:

I have this and use it on my Neverfull and all of my purses in public places. It goes in whatever bag I am carrying out
If you get something that can keep the weight pulled they should come out. This has helped me overcome that problem with all my speedys.

This topic came up a few times today. I shared my great finds in a previous post a few weeks back (affordable accessories). Here are two chains which I alternate between when I use my PAs: O Shape Gold Chain and Flat Gold Chain.
This fits a larger bag, but here's the link - Handbag Organizer
This is for a smaller bag - Small bag organizer
Hey there.. not sure where you're based but here are some recommendations:
I ordered a gold chain off of Amazon and it works really well with the PA. It was only around $10 and has held up well so far. Give that a try if you want an affordable option chain for PA
I hate carrying too! But my nails lady takes cash, and I also give tips on cash. So I bought this cute $15 wallet for just cash. It’s so tiny and fits even in tiny purses! Brown Bear Wallet
I just got this nylon strap on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08126MG3X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_XCWJ5HX91V9635684TSA) and am really enjoying it on my Speedy B 25. I really wanted the jacquard Bandouliere in macadamia, but I just can't justify the price. This dupe is super reasonably priced, and the hardware matches quite well. It's comfortable on my shoulder and it's nice not having to baby it.

Let me know if you'd like more closeups!
Oh! I never heard of handle protectors before! Thank you so much for sharing! Will look into it!
I know it’s cheap but I don’t understand why I can’t find it on Amazon? Here’s the like for the Apple Garde: Garde' Rain & Stain Repellent 5.5 oz. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00B6F9KXG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_014XCDFR3ANJRCD5VH0X
Wish I bought one way earlier!
I used Apple Garde based on posts and comments here and YouTube on my speedy. I’m so glad I did! I also found demo videos on YouTube

I bought two different organizers from Amazon for my speedy b 30. This is the one I like: Pelikus Felt Purse & Tote Organizer Insert/Multi-Pocket Handbag Shaper (Large, Red) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRPYJH6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_xRPp2SzK1q55Y
It fits just a little bit loose and that’s what I want. The other one fits tight which makes the bag too stiff/ structured.
I have a speedy 30B. Try this organizer. It’s cheap and does not make my bag boxy. I didn’t want one but I don’t want my canvas to crack eventually from the bag slouching. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HRBKZXW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I use mine as a wallet and key holder within my Pochette Métis. If I’m running errands and don’t want to bring my purse, I’ll attach a chain to it and wear as a crossbody. Here’s the link for the chain I have. It’s got weight to it and the clasps almost match the one on the MPA: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LXK8FAM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_6RiKFbSMN3HAD
of course! just bought on amazon and it came pretty quick. for reference, I got the "Gold 47.2" style and I'm 5'7 - it sits perfectly at my hip. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RWLZJ4X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
