Okay, so, I finally did it. I got myself a Speedy 30 Monogram. You know, that classic handbag everyone’s been talking about? Yeah, that one. I’d been eyeing it for a while, and let me tell you, the whole process was quite an experience. It all started with me just browsing online, looking at different designer bags, not really planning to buy anything. But then, I stumbled upon some pictures of the Speedy 30, and I was like, “Hmm, that’s a nice-looking bag.”

I started digging a bit more, reading about its history. Turns out, this bag has been around since the 1930s! They originally made it as a smaller version of those big travel bags. I thought that was pretty cool, a bag with some history. I kept reading, and I found out that it was designed for travelers, and the name “Speedy” is because of the whole “fast travel” thing back then. Then they added a strap so you can wear it across your body, which is super practical.
So, I went to the store, just to see it in person, you know? I walked in, and there it was, among all the other shiny bags. Honestly, it didn’t really jump out at me at first. There were other bags that were flashier, I guess. But I asked to see it, and the sales assistant took it out for me. I held it, tried it on with the strap, and walked around the store a bit, getting a feel for it.
Then, the comparison game started. I saw a smaller size, the Speedy 25, sitting there too. It looked cute, but I was worried it might be too small for my stuff. I usually carry a lot of things. So, I compared them side-by-side, trying to imagine what I could fit in each one.
- I considered the shape. It’s kind of structured, which I like. I don’t like bags that lose their shape when you put things in them.
- I checked out the material. They say it’s made from a single piece of cotton canvas, which is pretty cool.
- I thought about how it would go with my outfits. I mean, it’s a classic design, so it should go with pretty much everything, right?
After a lot of back and forth, I finally decided to go for the Speedy 30. It just felt right. It was the perfect size, and I loved the classic monogram print. It felt like a good investment, something that would last a long time and never go out of style. I paid for it, and walked out of the store feeling pretty darn good.
Final Thoughts
And you know what? Some people say it’s losing its popularity, but I don’t think so. I’ve been seeing it around, and I even saw some guys rocking it, which I thought was pretty cool. So, yeah, I’m happy with my Speedy 30. It was a whole process, but I think it was worth it. It’s not just a bag, it’s like a piece of history that I can carry around with me.
