Detail Closeup

2008's Cruise Collection this year features Louis Vuitton's signature Monogram Canvas with Red Vinyl trimmings and Red Printed Alligator Leather (sorry peeps, it isn't real Alligator, just an alligator print on the leather). Personally, Bagaholic Babe loves this collection, and prefers it to the Mini Lin Croisette Cruise Collection as this Monogram Rubis collection is more eye-catching, with that vibrant shade of fire-engine red. I'm not usually one who likes red...In fact, I don't fancy red at all, but somehow, this collection appeals very much to me. Perhaps because the Red Vinyl trimmings give the bag just the right amount of gloss and shine, without the feel of it looking overdone. Me Likey. My favourite pick is the Salina MM and the Neo Bucket. Kudos to Marc Jacobs on a job well done!
