The only thing I hate about having a new LV is that it looks like the fakies.

Mine took like 5 or 6 months. The lady at the counter actually said to keep it in direct light all the time, and it will change faster.

I feel the same way with my new one! It looks so fake!

Re: LV owners...another question???
It depends on how often you carry it. My everyday bag took almost 6 months to turn to a rich colour.
My friend has one that she hardly ever uses & over a year later it is not as dark as mine.

Re: LV owners...another question???
you can lightly wet the leather and that will darken it a bit, just make sure you do it lightly and evenly
