Honestly I feel that a speedy is really popular. It's a very classy bag but it really depends on what you want to have. Most speedys will start to sag. If that doesn't bother you then I say go for it. I've had so many bags and I have yet to buy a speedy. Well.. other than the mini speedy but they're both on two different levels. If you're looking for an everyday bag that's easy to carry and at the same time, holds a lot. I really recommend the Cabas Piano. Angelina Jolie loves her and it looks beautiful on everyone that uses it. Just a suggestion since you're going to check out the bags.
