If you're a Louis Vuitton bag fan, I am sure you are familiar with "Popincourt" bag.  Louis Vuitton Popincourt bag was introduced years ago and was discontinued sometime early or late 2010. source: Google.com source: Google.com These are the original version of the Popincourt bags: available in mini and large. Like the first edition the Popincourt bags were released on their famous monogram canvas but unlike the old version with natural leather trims, they added some colors on the edges and handles.  They also added an extra pocket in front with a padlock, tag, keybell and a removable/adjustable strap (so you can carry it on your shoulders or crossbody.   The full zip through bag have 2 side exterior pockets of easy access and the bottom features 4 studs so you can put down or place your bag anywhere worry-free. It also comes in two sizes: PM 12.6" x 8.3" x 5.1" and MM 14.1" x 10" x 5.7".  PM sizes come in color - Marine...

Louis Vuitton Petit Malle Phone cases (source: Google.com) Hello there fashionistas and techies out there!  During the Spring/Summer 2017 fashion show of Louis Vuitton these fab phone cases caught the attention of almost all of those present in the event.  These cases are modernized version of LV's coveted vintage trunks.   Louis Vuitton Petite Malle bag (source: Google.com) This not actually not the first time that Louis Vuitton revolutionized their trunk. In 2014, Louis Vuitton introduced the Petite Malle bag (miniature Louis Vuittion trunk) on their Autumn/Winter 2014 fashion show, which became the "it bag" after the runway show: the bag can be used as a shoulder bag, cross body bag and a clutch. source: Google.com A day before the fashion show, Nicolas Ghesquiere (LV's current creative director) took to Instagram the arrival of this "soon-to-be" coveted piece of luxury. source: Google.com source: Google.com It ...

Few weeks ago, I went to Louis Vuitton store in Greenbelt 5 to get my Damier Speedy 30 checked.  While waiting for the SA this cutie bag caught my eye.  The Alma Nano .♥  Actually there are other teeny tiny bags on the shelves but I opted to check this one.  I asked the SA's permission if I could take a photo of the bag.  It was so tiny: so if you're using an iPhone 6 or 6+, this is not the bag for you.  It can only fit an iPhone 5 / 5S or any small mobile phone, a lippy and a small purse. The price? It's Php55,000.00. I am a fan of huge bags, because I carry lots of stuff, but small or tiny bags are now invading the "bag world".  Sometime last year I shared my insights about the Alma Epi BB and other Mini bags , really love that bag (wishlist) but of course it is Louis Vuitton, so it's not cheap: it costs around Php66,000.00.   Bag trends from micro, mini and now -- Nano! source: Google Louis Vuitton unveiled their Nano...

I've been meaning to do a review of Louis Vuitton Montorgueil for quite sometime.  This bag was already discontinued, after a long search (Manila-US-SG-Italy) finally I got myself my very own Monty . (Monty short for Montorgueil: the nickname given to the bag) I was really aiming for the GM size but since this was the last piece available, that left me no choice but to get the PM.  I really like it's shape and of course unlike the Speedy you can wear it on your shoulders.  Monty is one of the beauties of classic monogram line as I have said there are 2 sizes available the GM (16.5″ x 9.4″ x 7.1″) and PM (14.1″ x 8.3″ x 6.3″). A little trivia on the bag: It's design was inspired by the chic atmosphere of Rue Montorgueil in Paris. After using it for a month, I realized that the bag is too small for me.  Even though the Monty is very spacious inside to house all my "abubot" I am used in carrying large bags, maybe in time I'll get used to it.  The should...

Have been always a lover of huge bags... (Maybe because I have a lot of "abubot"*).  Though I really adore cute things... like miniature perfume bottles, lipsticks... anything that is the mini version of something except for bags.  But lately I am slowly becoming a fan of "mini me" bags.   Here are some of the "mini me bags" that I have been eyeing for. (Guess I need to round them up to my 5 top picks!) 1. Louis Vuitton Alma BB bag : comes in epi leather, classic monogram canvas, damier ebene canvas and monogram vernis.  Dimension: 9.8"W x 7.5"H x 4.3"D .  Of course if it's from Louis Vuitton it does not come cheap. Monogram and Damier Canvas $1,200.00usd, Epi leather $1,590.00usd and Monogram vernis and Epi Electric leather $1,820.00usd My personal choice is the LV Alma bb epi!  It's undeniably gorgeous! Love the bright colors... All bags come with a cross body detachable straps, making it a two way bag.   LV alma ...

LV petite-malle - classic monogram Structured pieces!!! That is what we could find at Louis Vuitton boutique soon... Nicolas Ghesquière (formerly from Balenciaga) debuts with these fabulous pieces, being the new creative director in the House of Louis Vuitton after the departure of Marc Jacobs.   Collection includes more structured, quirky and one-handle bags.   The statement piece in the collection was the Petite-Malle that comes in two versions: (1) classic-monogram style and (2) with removable covers. These are mini-trunks (he shrunk LV's classic malle) with straps that are also removable. LV petite-malle with removable cover I am not into small bags... but this one is totally gorg! For the two versions... if you ask me which of the 2 is my favorite! I love the classic monogram (Nothing beats the classic monogram)!♥ Photo credits: Louis Vuitton
