Mon monogram??
I know this service was introduced sometime late last year but it just arrived at my local boutique. Wondering if anyone has done it or seen a bag that someone has done?
Here are some examples:

Re: Mon monogram??
Hmmm... I haven't seen any in person.
I personally wouldn't have it done to my bag, but that's just me

Re: Mon monogram??
I would be really afraid of it chipping off. I'm not into this that much right now. Maybe I will change my mind..

Re: Mon monogram??
^^vgirl, I think for this special order the design and initials are stamped into the leather, it's not painted on. I suppose it could chip but according to the SA, it is unlikely

Re: Mon monogram??
I think it is a good idea if you want to keep your bags forever.
If you like changing or selling your bags after many years of use, i think you will find it difficult to sell an monogrammed bag unless the buyer has the same initials !!!LOL!!Always be kind to people on your way up, because you are sure to meet them on your way down

Re: Mon monogram??
I completely agree with FU.
If you're the type of person who only wears a bag for a couple seasons then wants to trade it in for something new, not a good idea. And personally I'm not a huge fan of initials on day bags. I just think it looks better on weekenders and luggage.

Re: Mon monogram??
^^^ ITA, Mon Monogram on weekender/luggage is something I would do rather than on an everyday bag. I've seen some pieces in person, they're actually nice. Also, I fear chipping since the designs you choose are painted on. Regardless, for those who like the style, it's a neat piece to have!

Re: Mon monogram??
I'm planning on getting a Mono Speedy with my future initials in pink and white, with a pink stripe outlined in white going down the center. according to the BF this is going to be an engagement present... which i hope is soon, lol. hehe he's the one who is all for it too!

Re: Mon monogram??
^^ That's awesome! Like I mentioned, Mon Monogram pieces are stunning in person! Especially in the pink, purples, and reds/oranges!

Re: Mon monogram??
I think I'm going to get a 25 though, so it's small and not something I'll use all the time. I'd want to keep it really clean and use it for special things... especially since pink doesn't really go with everything

Re: Mon monogram??
last time I was in LV I fell in love with one of the example pieces they had. If I ever bought a speedy, I'd probably have it done, I really like it on the agendas too.
