Designer Spotlight: Louis Vuitton

Almost everyone I know absolutely loves Louis Vuitton. When the term "designer handbag" is said, no doubt, Louis Vuitton is one of the first name brands that come to mind. It's classic and will forever be in style. :D


I was lucky enough to own my very first LV bag when I was 16 years old. My Mom gave me this (not the actual picture):


Around this time, I also found a black LV scarf in my Mom's closet (which means she doesn't own it anymore because I asked for it, lol). And then, when I was 17, my parents gave me a Speedy 30 as a Christmas/ early 18th birthday gift. :D



I love my bags and scarf very very much. I expect that my next LV purchase would now come out of my own pocket (unless Mommy and Daddy feel like being generous, hahaha). I'm keeping my fingers crossed. ;)


Louis Vuitton has sooo many different kinds of leather goods to choose from - bags that are both classic and trendy. They also offer shoes, sunglasses, and ready-to-wear clothes for both men and women.


Here are some celebrities who love Louis Vuitton:


Tyra Banks

Jessica Simpson (Who could ever forget her LV dog carrier?)



Beyonce and her $52,500 Limited Edition LV Handbag

So, ladies, what are your thoughts on Louis Vuitton? :D


Oh, and btw, Happy 1st of May! Summer is almost here. :)

  1. I have been putting off getting the LV speedy bag for about 2 years now :) I Just can't seem to make up my mind on which bag to buy lol I'm struggling between the Speedy 30 bag just because it such a classic hand bag and but on the other side I want the Neverful MM tote bag because it's huge and I can carry it on my shoulders. Any opinions on which is better??

  2. LV has some lovely stuff, I agree. I also have two LV bags, including the same little one. They never go out of style so they are always worth the investment :-)
    My last purchase was a Dior, though, and I absolutely adore it.
    I heart designer bags!

  6. I must be the only one who doesnt think much of LV! To me it makes me think of really trashy over tanned looking chav's in juicy couture velour tracksuits carrying tiny LV bags! Its not a brand I associate with class and sophistication :P

    I much prefer Vivienne Westwood or Chanel :)

  8. Diana-- speedy 30 is pretty space-y on the inside too, but if your main concern is being able to carry it around easily, then the tote may be the better choice cuz speedy can only be carried by holding it or letting it rest on your forearm. they are both worth the investment, though. :D

    Cafe Bellini-- i love them too! :D

    akaCola-- no prob! :)

    Vivian-- :D

    Shelley Ann-- beyonce's bag is super expensive though. haha. :)

    beautyandthebeast-- chanel is a classic brand too. :)

    Tara-- yes, maybe it's time to indulge in another one. :)

  9. I only really like their bags which aren't plastered in their logo - but that is how I feel about all logos; why should I pay to advertise for a company?

    In any other pattern though, they make some really lovely bags.

  13. Louis Vuitton handbags are now the all-embracing accepted in baggage, the accoutrements and Louis vuitton bags from which all others are judged.
