You know how men think that we spend too much on clothes/shoes/bags? As sad as it is, they might be right, unless… we want to buy some iconic item, like Louis Vuitton Mongram Canvas Bag! If you consider buying a designer bag, but still haven’t decided which one, here are the 5 Reasons that will make you run for that Speedy Bag to the nearest Louis Vuitton boutique:
Reason 1:
Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag with it’s notorious monogram canvas and classic silhoette has been in style for years and years now, so once you get it, you can be sure it will look fashionable and in style as long as you have it (which is not always the case, especially with the “it” bags of the season, like this summer’s Prada stripe hobo etc.)
Reason 2:
Louis Vuitton Speedy 25
Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag comes in 4 sizes, which means you will definitely find the very right size for you ( I personally think Speedy 30 is the best as it is neither too small, nor too big).

Reason 3:
Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag goes with EVERYTHING, from jeans to cocktail dresses. The only thing you can not pair it with is a red carpet gown. But when it comes to that, I think you will splurge for a nice clutch, will not you?
Reason 4:
Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag made of a monogram canvas and calf skin and it’s extremely good in use, here is what Louis Vuitton says about it:
…Monogram canvas is lightweight, supple, strong and sturdy. Completely waterproof, it is highly resistant to surface scratches – perfect for travel and contemporary lifestyles.
Which is always a good thing, because getting a new designer bag made of soft leather and having it scretched the same day is the worst post-shopping scenario!
Reason 5:
Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag is perfect for travel, it will hold all your valuable belongings and at the same time will make you look stylish, which is not that easy, having hours and hours of plane and/or driving on you.
An Extra Reason:
The last, but not least – Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag is one of the very very few designer bags that says Style and makes you look fantastic and fashionable 24/7 without making you go bankupt.
The price for a Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag is not that high, it varies from $675.00 (for the smallest size) and $750.00 (for the largest)! Which pretty much makes it the best investment a girl can make!

i got my speedy 30 last month and i’m sooo happy!! i just love it, it can fit anything may want to carry on the streets and looks stylish with any outfit! i feel a million bucks with it! =)
I totally agree that the Speedy is the best LV investment piece anyone can get. It’s classic, stylish and makes any outfit look like a million bucks! I’ve had mine for years and it still makes me happy each time I use it :-)
Dear Alexandra,
You are SO right! And I just love the fact that a LV Speedy goes pretty much with everything, summer or winter. It is indeed an amazing investment. Now I am saving for a Chanel 2.55 bag, I think this classic bag will also make any outfit look stylish and will look great with anything. Although, they are almost 3 times as expensive as a LV Speedy… :(
THANKYOU! I bought my speedy 30 spontaniously when shopping with my friend after getting fed up that i couldnt find anything i liked! It cost me £405 in london and when i got home i was slightly (only VERY slightly) starting to regret my impulsive buy..until i read this and it completely made me shake off that feeling! i love it and want to take it everywhere with me.. and you’re right.. the best thing i could have bought, it goes with everything!!
Olga, today I splurged on the speedy 35.. i will admit i feel utterly guilty.. but, it is such a nice bag, i just can’t return it. I live in new york so of course counterfeit bags are everywhere, so I high tailed it to the LV store just to be sure. I got the 35 instead of the 30 because one of my biggest idols says if you are going to go for a bag go for the largest.. lol I am going to sleep on this purchase and hopefully in the morning I will still feel great about it, put in on with my jeans and stilettos and go !
I bought the Louis Vuitton Min Lin Speedy 30 a week ago. I have not used it yet. My question is… Do you think the Min Lin line is just a trend at this time or is a line to stay for a long time? I keep doubting myself..and thinking i should get the monogram canvas speedy 30 instead.. Please help….
Hello everyone, Today I got my speedy 35 bag as a gift from my boyfriend I love it alot and I cant stop smiling
I received the speedy 30 monogram canvas speedy for my birthday; and I exchanged it for the Damier design which now I wish I would have stuck with the monogram canvas. But, I do love my bag. Anyway now I am contemplating saving for the Montorgueil PM or the Odeon PM I am undecided. I know they say bigger is better? Has any one out there bought either one or considered buying one or the other? Or does anyone have a suggestion. Help :-)
to Trudy:
Congratulations on your first LV bag!!! :) As for your Montorgueil PM or the Odeon PM dilemma, I think Montorgueil PM is more versatile, it will go with more outfits than Odeon PM AND it’s bigger… But you should listen to your heart, whichever you like best will be the best bet! :) I’d go to the LV store and take a close look at both of them, try them on and see how I feel.
Good luck!
I was searching online for opinions about purchasing a LV Speedy 30 because I have the tendency to feel guilty about expensive purchases especially when it’s my money. This made me feel much better about buying one. It’s my first offical splurge =]
thank you
Well…I’m debating on buying the speedy 35, I usually feel guilty about spending my own money on something expensive but in seeing that the largest isn’t that expensive I’m am leaning toward it…it was either the speedy or the new gucci bag. I know the speedy will still be stylish 5 years from now…idk…debating…somewhat.
to Jamaica:
Definitely LV! I also used to hesitate between Gucci and LV, but like you said, a classic LV bag will look its part even 10 years from now! :)
Wise choice! :)
Hi today i got my speedy 35…from dublin. At first I regret coz my friend bought me the speedy 35 instead of speedy 30. But when I look at the bag I feel very hepi and starting to love it. For me all speedy bag are very very beautiful in its way.
to Aini:
Oh, congrats, sweetie!!! No worries about the size!!! You know how they say in the States – bigger’s better :) Besides, I very often with my LV30 could fit in more – especially when I go on a trip, or vacation or just have a busy day when I need it all – the books, all the girly stuff AND my gym attire.
Just enjoy your gorgeous bag, Aini, it must be so great to have it all new with the shiny brasses and the gorgeous pale handles… Awe…
Love my Speedy! I got mine around 22 years ago. I had just turned 20 and got it as a gift. I used it to death! In fact two years ago it got small holes in the corner of the bag. But after 20 years of use I think that is impressive! I plan on buying a NEW LV bag this weekend..Thinking of the galleria…..
im planning to get my first LV..the speedy 30..next month! on my 22nd bday, but i think i will go for the damier azur or ebony.. dont know yet.. but im sure i will love it to death!!
Wow Marisol, you lucky lucky girl! :) :)
Trying to decide between the Speedy 30 or 35. Any advice?
I’d pick 30. It’s just the perfect size.
I’m thinking of purchasing a Speedy 35 for my 21st birthday. I’m a little hesitant to get the monogram canvas though. I’m still in college and I wont be living in a big city or anything when I graduate, so brads arent huge for me, but I’ve always been fond of LV. But I’m not all that big on flashy brand labels all over everything like Coach or Michael Kors (a far cry from LV though, I know). I LOVE the look of the Damier, but I’m not sure if its just going to be another trend after while. This was asked earlier in the thread and I couldn’t really get an answer out of what was said.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
Michelle,
Who can predict fashion trends really? If it was me, I would pick the monogram canvas just because it’s such a classic! Also because I’d really have to save up to get it and with all that effort, I would want something timeless…
