More than eight months after I first wrote about this style, I finally caved in and got one. Its cuteness just reeled me in!
I’d been looking for a small hand-held bag to carry on weekends, when I don’t need to carry all my workday stuff. I have a cute little black leather Cole-Haan bag that [...]

I held off on getting anything in Epi for a long time. I love leather, but Epi just doesn’t have that leather texture and smell. However, it is pretty much indestructible — which makes it perfect for travel. In fact, Epi was introduced in 1985 in response to the need to have a good, durable [...]

Louis Vuitton Palermo and Tivoli

December 30, 2007

I haven’t done an LV post for a while, mainly because they haven’t offered anything new that impressed me. However, these two bags were released for late fall ‘07, and they actually appeal to me quite a bit. They have a lot in common, but are very different bags. Palermo makes my practical, [...]

It’s still difficult to tell what size these will be, but I think it’s safe to say that the XXL (a one-shot) will be huge. [...]

Louis Vuitton Coeur Coin Purse

January 10, 2007

Isn’t this adorable? This is the new LV Coeur (heart) coin purse. It’s supposed to be available February 1 – just in time for valentine’s day, of course – but I’ve already seen a few on eBay. The red color is the new vernis “pomme d’amour,” which literally means “apple of love”…depending on [...]
