LOUIS VUITTON HANDBAGS & PURSES

Louis Vuitton continues to expand their online store and have announced the introduction of the Louis Vuitton Mon Monogram Bags service. The service will allow you to customize your Louis Vuitton Bags, ending up with over 200 million possible combinations on your bag of choice. The selection of bags include the iconic Speedy, historic Keepall travel bag, or the Pegase 55 wheeled cabin case.

Once you choose your item you can pick up to three initials and vertical or diagonal stripes. There are 17 color options to choose from. Once you have entered your selection the site will simulate the design for you to see what the finished product will look like.

Another brand known for customizing items like this is Goyard. Having a design house allow you to customize a signature bag from their line will ensure that your bag will stand out compared to others.

 I love the idea of personalizing a travel bag like the Keepall and Pegase. While I would not check a Louis Vuitton Bags under a plane, I would certainly carry it on or take it in the car for weekend trips.

Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2010’s Monogram Eden is a collection of iconic Louis Vuitton Handbags pieces that are reinvented to reference the lifestyle of New Age travelers. One of the pieces is the classic Speedy which is crafted from soft and supple lambskin leather that is embroidered with stripes of metallic Monogram canvas which creates a mesmerizing trompe-l’œil’ effect with the iconic motif.

But the most noteworthy detail of the Eden Speedy is that for the first time ever, the bag has a removable strap (which is absent from previous reinterpretations), and gives you options on carrying the bag by hand or as a messenger bag.

As for the other details, Eden Speedy features a natural cowhide leather and metallic lambskin trimmings, a zipped closure with padlock, double interior flat pocket, soft microfibre lining and bottom studs for protection. Monogram Eden Speedy measures 9.8″ x 11.4″ x 6.7″. It comes in two colors, Peach and Silver. Its available at Louis Vuitton Bags stores for US$2330.

You could also accessorize the Monogram Eden Speedy like in the runway show. The Rainbow and Circus bag charms are available separately for US$560 each.

Looks like Elle Macpherson has found a new go-to handbag of the moment. I just covered her carrying a new Spring 2010 Louis Vuitton Underground Shoulder Bag.

Just a few days earlier she was carrying the same bag with almost the same outfit. I had to look closely because there are only small differences between these pictures and the earlier ones.

Elle has added a coat, scarf and a darker pair of cozy boots to the outfit she seemed to have worn earlier this week. The one thing that is still the same, but I wish it wasn’t is that detachable fox tail. Eeeks.

 I hated it before and I still hate it. The Louis vuitton bags would look so much better sans tail. Elle was snapped dropping her kids off at school sporting this casual yet extremely fashionable look.

Named after the nomadic people of the western and central Sahara, Tuareg is just the appropriate name for this gorgeous traveling bag fit for the new age globe-trotter. Its made from an innovative fabric obtained through a complex weaving process to create the black-on-beige Monogrammed jacquard fabric with lurex and fluorescent threads weaved through.

This Louis vuitton handbags  features vachetta and soft calfskin leather trimmings, a brightly colored luggage tag and interior lining, a zipped closure, double interior flat pocket and an adjustable and removable strap so you could carry the bag by hand or on the shoulder. Tuareg’s comfortable size makes it perfect for travel and daily use.

Louis Vuitton Monogram Cheche Tuareg Bag measures 17.5″ x 10″ x 7.1″ and comes in . Its available at Louis Vuitton Bags stores for US$2950.
