I love LV but tend to shy away from their monogram lines. They are hugely counterfeited & it screams to me "Look at me, I have a Louis Vuitton!!". Which is fine & dandy for some but..... I prefer the more subtle damier azure & ebene. The EPI line is very classic too.

I think the multicolor monogram is my least favorite. It's looks very teenager & cartoonish to me. (Sorry, don't mean to offend anyone)

For someone who is a fashionable 50, other than LV & in a similar price range, I would suggest, Longchamp, TODS (LOVE Tods bags!), Mulberry, etc.. love the English classics!! Tory Burch also has some really great fun & classy bags at a reasonable cost.

I think the multicolor is played out but to each his own. Fashiohile has some great items so keep looking. Also Ann's Fabulous Finds has great stuff as well.

It sure does look very 2003.

A little tacky even during its heyday.

It is not "dated". It is "vintage".

I am not a fan of logos splashed across things.

As far as that particular bag, it looks very 2003 indeed.

I have a similar looking purse, but different brand. Personally, I still love it, use it, and don't care if it looks dated or not (and yes, it looks dated). However, it does look a bit young for someone in their 50s. It's not a purse I would choose for my mother in law.

Yes, it's dated...

but the bottom line is, will your mom like it?
Looks more like something for a young person.

My mom would hate it. Too small and too many logos.

I bought the original speedy 30 from LV in NYC. I should have never sold that purse. It's now $2500+ when I paid $1400 for it.

I still like the LV monogram especially in that because I like the colors
