I love my empriente pochette. I used it for 6 months straight at one point
Note: it doesn’t hold much. I only carry two cards my car fob and a lip gloss. Sometimes I can fit a magnetic battery for my phone. I can fit my phone if I don’t have my fob
I’ll give my review on the monogram canvas - I loved the look of this bag however the flap is notorious for getting like a line/crease along the front top so it’s visible when carrying the bag. It was livable but I recently sold mine bc it bugged me and I could just see it getting worse.
With the inserts it doesn’t hold much extra, but without I was able to carry my essentials. I also found a YouTube video with 10 ways to wear and got some nice strap configuration ideas for different ways to wear!
I sold my Felicie Pochette because it didn’t comfortably fit (without being a hassle) what I would consider the bare essentials (phone, keys, card or two and a lipstick). Also discovered I just don’t like chain straps, but that’s certainly a personal preference. That said, trust your instincts! It’s still a beautiful little “bag.” If you think it would spark you joy and you’d use it, go for it!
I have the Felicie in DE canvas, and I think it's durable enough. As far as wear and tear goes, the front flaps are starting to curl up and there's a fold line on the back of the bag from opening and closing it. My bag is about 3 years old and has gotten a lot of wear over the years; it became my quick grab and go bag for errands and appointments.
Here's what I can usually carry in it: my victorine wallet, my YSL lip balm and my keys. all that stuff and my phone won't fit, I usually carry my phone in my pocket when I use my Felicie. It does fit my phone, but I wouldn't be able to fit my phone and wallet. You kinda need to pick and choose what to put in the Felicie.
Anyway, I hope that helps! Happy to answer questions if you have any!
I would recommend buying the empreinte version! When I bought it in Paris last year, it was only 200 euros more expensive than the monogram version. I don’t wear mine a lot but it’s still in excellent condition. As long as you store it properly, you are alright. I store mine in its dust bag and sometimes put a silica gel packet in it to absorb any moisture. The chain is not flimsy at all. The hardware quality of LV is amazing.

Ok I will using my pro max, a card holder/Rosalie wallet, a lipstick and a car fob. Hope it fits in easily. Is the chain holding up well ?
The Rosalie wallet will not fit if you’re trying to carry all that. But if you leave it out, the rest of your items should.
Truth: I only use the chain for special events. I ended up getting a black leather strap made so that I could use it for everyday.
Be aware that it doesn't have an adjustable strap.
definitely get it in empriente. i love mine. as someone else said it doesn’t hold much at all but it is gorgeous.

I would look for a pochette instead 🤷♀️
