(Hey, we all know that chain link straps tend to dig into our skin, though not many will want to admit this, especially ardent fans of Chanel bags). <br /><br /><b>The Verdict: </b> At first glance, I thought this was a rather mature-looking bag and dismissed it. When I popped into the Fendi boutique and saw this bag, I didn't think much of it either ... until curiosity got the better of me and I decided to sling it on my shoulder. And that's when I changed my mind about the bag. In fact, the bag proved to be rather expensive and classy-looking - in short, it immediately transforms one into a fashionista. It just proves that some things look better when they've been tried on. ;) <br /><br />Get this beauty for $1,290 via <a href="http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_detail.jsp?id=11990740"> eLuxury </a href>. <br /><br />Note: For those residing in Malaysia, Fendi stuff is cheaper in Malaysia than in the US now.

The trim is made of natural cowhide and comes with round leather handles with link attachments and golden brass hardware. As with other Speedy bags, the new <a href=" http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_detail.jsp?id=12251296">Monogram Roses Speedy 30</a> has a zip top closure with padlock and pink striped textile lining with an interior flat pocket. <br /><br />Definitely something out of the extraordinary but it kinda reminds me of the Gucci tattoo that appears on most of their new collection, don't you think? Anyway, I'm not a person for roses so that's one thing off my Wish List.<br /><br />FYI, the <a href=" http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_detail.jsp?id=12251296">Monogram Roses Speedy 30</a> is available via <a href="http://www.eluxury.com">eLuxury</a> for a price of $1,310.00Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-57469277049383147232008-12-31T07:21:00.006+08:002008-12-31T07:21:00.176+08:00Cute New Gucci Tote!Gucci's New Cruise Collection sports a Pug on one of their bags!<br /><br />This medium 'Guccioli' tote with signature beige/brown monogram with off-white patent leather trims comes with a detachable heart tag charm with leather bow detail.

We saw first saw a dog on Gucci bags - chihuahua in a Santa suit, complete with a Santa hat (Limited Edition) from the Christmas collection - and now a Pug from their Cruise 2009 Collection. Will Gucci start a whole collection of doggie bags? If so, I'm definitely a fan!<br /><br />Like it?

The shape of the Large Scuba (GM) can be changed by unfastening the dock clip and tucking out the sides. When expanded, it will look like the Medium Scuba (MM) . All bags from the Scuba range come in 2 bright colours, neon pink and flourescent orange. Both the Large and Medium sizes may be either toted in your arm (though imho it's a tad toooo big for that) or on the shoulder. The Scuba Clutch on the other hand, also doubles as a wristlet. All you have to do is strap on the wrist strap and voila, you're good to go! <br /><br /><b>The Verdict</b>: It's been awhile since Bagaholic Babe saw anything from Vuitton that she likes. This collection, on the other hand, she absolutely <i><b>loves!</i></b> And no prizes for guessing which colour I like it in.... Pink of course! Lol, though the orange and pink together (Ad campaign pic above) looks smashing! Good on ya, Marc Jacobs! I applaud these designs. I know that the designs aren't exactly new and neither are the shapes, but it's definitely novel in terms of the use and choice of material!

We also see the denim range taking on a new multicoloured monogram created by coloured threads that are embroidered on the monogram. Perhaps LV is adding a new multicolour denim line to their ever-expanding collections? Hmm...<br /><br />Lots of iridescent fabrics in metallic shades are used with the monogram - the monogram is often iridescent too! The African-esque vibe is obvious in the bead and tassle detailing on ALL the bags. The animal print, too adds to this African tribal feel. <br /><br />Bagaholic Babe isn't really a fan of this collection, though she likes the interesting colour combination of colours on the oversized clutches with embroidered monogram embossed.Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-85865042112292607312008-08-10T00:22:00.004+08:002008-08-10T00:22:06.539+08:00Comme des Garcons - Louis Vuitton Handbag CollaborationPress release from Louis Vuitton:<br /><br />A beguiling and individual vision of luxury will take shape when Louis Vuitton opens an impermanent store inside Comme des Garçons in Tokyo on 4th September 2008.<br /><br />The idea for the project emerged from the memories of Comme des Garçons founder Rei Kawakubo. In 1978, as a young designer, she saw the first Louis Vuitton store to open in Japan and was fascinated by the image of French craftsmanship and art de vivre it projected – a luxury that seemed to her, at the time, unattainable. Three decades on, Rei Kawakubo wanted to revisit her impressions, and so the association between Comme des Garçons and Louis Vuitton was born. Intriguingly, Louis Vuitton is celebrating this year its 30th anniversary in Japan.<br /><br />Rei Kawakubo has dedicated and re-designed the entire Comme des Garçons store on Kottodori, Omotesando especially for Louis Vuitton for the duration of the project, from 4th September through mid-December, into a space that will be a celebration of the Louis Vuitton Monogram. The fruit of this unprecedented collaboration – an exclusive collection of six one-off bags – will be presented in a minimalist space, at the centre of which will be a display of historic Louis Vuitton trunks. Inspired by her memories, Rei Kawakubo chose the legendary Monogram canvas to create two Party bags, small evening purses with outsized natural leather handles. The designer also customized two classic Louis Vuitton bags, endowing the Papillon with kawaii animal charms and the Mini HL with multiple slender handles. Lastly, Louis Vuitton is reediting two iconic designs from the 1970s – the Petit Marceau and the Sac 2 Poches – which Rei Kawakubo is likely to have seen in the windows of that first Louis Vuitton store.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHgWWkK3B7rF_7rJUExxuAH-UpkMJT941QbQfA3t5COwQ9dlWpMFWcjRRih-BxyCjCwh_fC3H8jF543JkRfstD3cFBuH6Oh3A44JKiaJuN8Sut0Qudl_1WU91WtwGZ7-P69E4BcKb4hS5R/s1600-h/commesspeedy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHgWWkK3B7rF_7rJUExxuAH-UpkMJT941QbQfA3t5COwQ9dlWpMFWcjRRih-BxyCjCwh_fC3H8jF543JkRfstD3cFBuH6Oh3A44JKiaJuN8Sut0Qudl_1WU91WtwGZ7-P69E4BcKb4hS5R/s400/commesspeedy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5231777529873530050" /></a>[Mini HL w/multiple slender handles]<br /><br /><br />The bags will only be available upon order, which is only to be placed at the “Louis Vuitton at Comme des Garçons store”. No telephone or Internet orders will be taken. In return, customers will receive a certificate inside a special card holder in Louis Vuitton's traditional natural leather, embossed with the Louis Vuitton at Comme des Garçons signature. Only several months later will their bag be delivered to their chosen Louis Vuitton store. Other iconic Louis Vuitton Monogram bags, such as the Speedy and Alma chosen by Rei Kawakubo, will also be on display and available for immediate sale inside this special “Louis Vuitton at Comme des Garçons” store.<br /><br />Marc Jacobs, Louis Vuitton Artistic Director, who has long been an admirer of Comme des Garçons, comments: "It is impossible to overstate Rei Kawakubo's influence on modern fashion. I find it wonderful to think that, thirty years ago, this immense talent, someone who has inspired so many others, was inspired by Louis Vuitton, and now that inspiration has now been realized."<br /><br />Yves Carcelle, Chairman and CEO of Louis Vuitton, says: "This project not only brings a new meaning to luxury, but also speaks volumes about how the know-how and heritage of Louis Vuitton have always been perceived in Japan, including by its foremost designers. We are very proud to have been able to help Rei Kawakubo relive her memories in such an original and creative way."<br /><br />Rei Kawakubo, President of Comme des Garçons, says: "These are party bags to celebrate the 30 years of Louis Vuitton in Japan. In designing them, I have kept Louis Vuitton's traditional concept as it is, but sometimes two handles become one, sometimes two handles become eight... It has been a remarkably exciting opportunity for me to have been able to participate in Louis Vuitton's traditional design and heritage."<br /><br />Photos courtesy of Louis VuittonBagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-40377283398618360452008-07-27T07:59:00.001+08:002008-07-27T08:03:24.748+08:00New Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage Collection<b>Presenting: Vuitton's Limited Edition Monogramouflage Collection by Takashi Murakami</b><br /><br />Here's yet another collaboration with Marc Jacobs with the House of Vuitton and Japanese pop artist, Takashi Murakami. The new addition to the ever-growing range of Vuitton monogram bags, this Monogramouflage collection was specially created for the Murakami Exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum in New York. Launched at this very exhibition on June 1st, it is now available online and at select Louis Vuitton boutiques worldwide. <br /><br /><br />As you can probably tell from the name of the collection itself, the Monogramouflage is a combination of Vuitton's signature monogram and army-esque camouflage design. This is probably one of the bigger Murakami Limited Editions out there. This Monogramouflage Collection consists of an accessories line, a travel line and a handbags line. Actually, when you look at the photos below, you'd notice that this collection is mainly for travel.<br /><br /><b>The Travel Bags</b><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5YZjE6QrFway8OXSV9JWWL54mEg6R-Wmjf7Exsn1KVzRzyhrSwwqr9lhrNrXhFTB1cYuvDAuFRkILFIMCNO3TLEbR_hLAI5bDtS_7elys4j1l3BpDQ1rAVXyrLi7t1mY8aMSMduFoWlbt/s1600-h/Monogramouflage+Pegase60.jpg"><img style="display:block;

I don't know about you ladies out there, but Bagaholic Babe doesn't really like this Limited Edition collection. I've always fancied those cutesy Murakami cartoonesque and cutesy designs like the Panda, the Cherry, the Sakura and the Mushroom, but this one is too rugged for my liking. And I'm not a camo fan, so needless to say, this really ain't my thing.Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-40288620855269890272008-07-21T11:10:00.004+08:002008-07-21T19:49:01.603+08:00Splurge of the Week!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif47Nf4ko38wb7pQZtIQwLd55oma4w5zxk-tHSFBHQ49S2BEvm3zgqYZYqRyoWBPcLgK7Fji5N7A_09PYhLVdLCjUNxecJyCikB86comNd_ywtYfE1zogliHStbYcv6DdYAdJ3-ecNbdVI/s1600-h/LV.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif47Nf4ko38wb7pQZtIQwLd55oma4w5zxk-tHSFBHQ49S2BEvm3zgqYZYqRyoWBPcLgK7Fji5N7A_09PYhLVdLCjUNxecJyCikB86comNd_ywtYfE1zogliHStbYcv6DdYAdJ3-ecNbdVI/s400/LV.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225300297621733890" /></a><strong>Louis Vuitton Limited Edition Jamais Bag in Ostrich Leather</strong><br /><br /><br />Check out the splurge for this week - a limited edition LV Jamais in monogram watercolor. <br /><br />A double handled tote in ostrich leather, the top comes with a flap that is secured with the LV padlock. A bag that's like no other, you'll find it's functional yet stylish. The artist, Richard Prince, specifically came up with the design to concide with his first major U.K. solo exhibition that'll take place this summer at the Serpentine Gallery in London. Not to mention, these limited bags are sold for a good cause. Part of the proceeds from its current retail value of 9,000 pounds, or about $17,800 at current exchange goes to the Serpentine. <br /><br />To find out more, log on to <a href="http://www.thefashionrow.com">The Fashion Row</a> for more info. <a href="http://www.thefashionrow.com">Click here</a> to find out more.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-78377368548562239412008-07-05T01:33:00.007+08:002008-07-06T08:17:22.966+08:00The New Gucci Babouska BagIntroducing the new Gucci Babouska line - inspired by the Russian Babooshka doll (also known as the stacking doll) or in this instance, more precisely, the Dedoushka doll - a male stacking doll with moustache. If you already know what I'm talking about, you'll see the similarity in the tassels that appear on each and every bag. Doesn't it look like moustache to you? What about the studs? Don't they resemble the Dedouska doll?<br /><br />This post features three designs from the Babouska line. All three have the signature heart-shaped Gucci crest charms, detachable shoulder straps, snap and push-lock closures and inside zip and cell phone pockets on it except for the style of each one - which is unique to itself.<br /><br />First up..<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrWtgzeVDxF3eOsk-tjtE7KzMpGIW8Lh1U1juff0GL-47U1OAe51V5eRxV4Cc5Ma83XdfyXAFobJg1Sl_cvSboZI83keo88mi0uhihY3Mk_i33WXc0pzIezKxytNWa4id7SO8PRf9OhIEs/s1600-h/Gucci+Large+Babouska.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrWtgzeVDxF3eOsk-tjtE7KzMpGIW8Lh1U1juff0GL-47U1OAe51V5eRxV4Cc5Ma83XdfyXAFobJg1Sl_cvSboZI83keo88mi0uhihY3Mk_i33WXc0pzIezKxytNWa4id7SO8PRf9OhIEs/s400/Gucci+Large+Babouska.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218982708399133042" /></a><a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446197182&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492709454&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474399545537&bmUID=1215138112416&ev19=1:2">Gucci Large Babouska Hobo</a> $2,495.00<br /><br />A soft leather style accented with matching suede trim, fringe detail and stud accents, antique brass hardware and a single top strap..<br /><br />Next..<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB9aDVhGK37QTHWLkFBii4kUp_LSHHE27FnikarCNI-w3A0qV-nGesy923b4my0B0KPXb2zV3J6YPHyFjrdGBkapJbICm7CLFCmB3uprEBfX5b6VWFzr2cIKk0l0gYAD6H7wMD85tKHlXO/s1600-h/Gucci+Large+Monogram+Babouska.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB9aDVhGK37QTHWLkFBii4kUp_LSHHE27FnikarCNI-w3A0qV-nGesy923b4my0B0KPXb2zV3J6YPHyFjrdGBkapJbICm7CLFCmB3uprEBfX5b6VWFzr2cIKk0l0gYAD6H7wMD85tKHlXO/s400/Gucci+Large+Monogram+Babouska.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218981980884331714" /></a><a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446197181&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492709432&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474399545537&bmUID=1215138112418&ev19=1:3">Gucci Large Babouska Hobo</a> $2,295.00<br /><br />A hobo in the same style but this time, with the ever-so-famous GG print fabric that comes accented with leather trimming and a suede fringe.

This day bag is convertible in shape, thanks to the hook closure. Seen above is how it looks when 'hooked' up. If you want to do without the hooked look, just snap the hook open and you have a rectangular boat-shaped sort of look. Similar to the stain-treated canvas used on Louis Vuitton's 'Antigua' range of bags, this 'painted' oversized monogrammed look gives the bag an artsy feel to it. I've personally seen the bag and felt its texture, and let's just say the pictures above don't do the bag justice -- it's much prettier when you actually tote it on your shoulder! Available in 4 colours (as shown above) - Green with Teal, Lilac with Lavender, Pink with Grey and Beige with Taupe; the small retails for $1,040 (or RM3900), the Large for $1200 (or RM4000++). As for the medium size, I'm not sure of the price. Bagaholic Babe loves the one in Pink, much sweeter! But if you really want a colour that stands out, then the one in Lilac is sure to do that. Beige is more understated whilst the Green is well, erm.. let's just say it's not Bagaholic Babe's cuppa tea.Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-41393787953888417532008-06-16T09:51:00.006+08:002008-06-17T10:38:18.334+08:00Splurge of the Week!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYzvOONBSqUKUbzxHsl43TyA8534cjPKnf2znMHp2ml1wxbHFo5D2Nf668GjiWAmJGLHHoXXw6TtDAfeaMyrBcSF5GWoIglYsEwmkAmnX6VTWg10OpVzUs88L5Ux0GarWXOWNXAaDr0fr6/s1600-h/lv.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYzvOONBSqUKUbzxHsl43TyA8534cjPKnf2znMHp2ml1wxbHFo5D2Nf668GjiWAmJGLHHoXXw6TtDAfeaMyrBcSF5GWoIglYsEwmkAmnX6VTWg10OpVzUs88L5Ux0GarWXOWNXAaDr0fr6/s400/lv.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212291929373715602" /></a><a href="http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_detail.jsp?id=11998099">Louis Vuitton Runway Monogram Motard Beforedark </a><br /><br /><br />An early arrival from their latest fall collection is Louis Vuitton's Monogram Motard line - being completely reinterpreted for the Spring/Summer 2008 collection through Marc Jacob's collaboration with American artist, Richard Prince - known for his inspirations by popular culture.<br /><br />The unique Motard texture is really one of a kind.

We're seeing a more 'rock chick' look this coming season - as Style.com puts it - Friday Giannini is 'staging a raid on the Russian/Cossack/folklore department of the hippie wardrobe-the kind of printy, shaggy, peasanty things London groupies picked up at Portobello market in the early seventies, but scrubbed up to match today's luxury values, of course.' Definitely nowhere near what they used to make.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0YSyzm_n3MBrv0uhqVl9ILUstnWYracHuZNmSQWYNmd7mszME5J9lJMy_GB-e-qEMJw6N49nPbHPXZrmLAlrR4NgPE7SlLqIl2-BXOjLMnafLOUzfsSmEEucpN3X9um8uf6m52pVfyhkS/s1600-h/Gucci+6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0YSyzm_n3MBrv0uhqVl9ILUstnWYracHuZNmSQWYNmd7mszME5J9lJMy_GB-e-qEMJw6N49nPbHPXZrmLAlrR4NgPE7SlLqIl2-BXOjLMnafLOUzfsSmEEucpN3X9um8uf6m52pVfyhkS/s320/Gucci+6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176769504176429186" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4ey_0QnJyBbKnyWoOSh3lwO1Cnj0ZKK9GcOtlSYS2iTb42Ceos5PNOwlG6tzutFJO_QAQMC8CVTklpkLddL3z4Pq244IWMYhvUVXw_kyC7V6xq91oZn5Xr7G9Kd8TrJKZqG7ZUo9GUcip/s1600-h/Gucci+7.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4ey_0QnJyBbKnyWoOSh3lwO1Cnj0ZKK9GcOtlSYS2iTb42Ceos5PNOwlG6tzutFJO_QAQMC8CVTklpkLddL3z4Pq244IWMYhvUVXw_kyC7V6xq91oZn5Xr7G9Kd8TrJKZqG7ZUo9GUcip/s320/Gucci+7.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176769426867017842" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivxwiKaBNfc7flfQUgtZ6HfcwNciwn3GM6qxvQorOZG3qihHBm27kc99kDH2ay2mwZU-GiLurnkmI72KYNbKExleQhH4Hsd5rhQED8TR2onHmdG3PcCF3IYPyLL20ZWe8fhfn0niZbr-k0/s1600-h/Gucci+8.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivxwiKaBNfc7flfQUgtZ6HfcwNciwn3GM6qxvQorOZG3qihHBm27kc99kDH2ay2mwZU-GiLurnkmI72KYNbKExleQhH4Hsd5rhQED8TR2onHmdG3PcCF3IYPyLL20ZWe8fhfn0niZbr-k0/s320/Gucci+8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176769328082770018" /></a><br />Take for example the new "Babushka" carpet bags, they're definitely exceptional pieces - not forgetting the detailed handwork in the flying leather fringes on the hobo shoulder bags.. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNJOhawuYGLD4QZVJ7AtKl_g19UDQ2UdkC42QFt2IQAKXW2UdNQQxYw0t8sFYGuHlYnDOHrqyiFja6AJFPvjuD7owQvSIcVvYxXv1pQ7-kmtZ8r7RfD_LGbmidL1QZS89DLHdRJmLrjtzB/s1600-h/Gucci+4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNJOhawuYGLD4QZVJ7AtKl_g19UDQ2UdkC42QFt2IQAKXW2UdNQQxYw0t8sFYGuHlYnDOHrqyiFja6AJFPvjuD7owQvSIcVvYxXv1pQ7-kmtZ8r7RfD_LGbmidL1QZS89DLHdRJmLrjtzB/s320/Gucci+4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176769766169434274" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy4vL8HbPwv7SSyk4ymSYyGpyjHWoT4MIB3nt-mc8dkKuNtxhQLp1NdX2CFn8LAY7XmymiEYIM-mjSFFNJeHukYcBdxxeDGp6YPzBL6Rl62kg_eYAi6zZQGYe-a2BxsrE6iV8pvnP0sgs8/s1600-h/Gucci+5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy4vL8HbPwv7SSyk4ymSYyGpyjHWoT4MIB3nt-mc8dkKuNtxhQLp1NdX2CFn8LAY7XmymiEYIM-mjSFFNJeHukYcBdxxeDGp6YPzBL6Rl62kg_eYAi6zZQGYe-a2BxsrE6iV8pvnP0sgs8/s320/Gucci+5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176769658795251858" /></a><br />And the signature monogram coated canvas which is a hit right now.

The family business started off producing pipes and smoking accessories moving on to capitalise on the economic boom of the Second Empire in 1883 - producing its first leather goods atelier in Paris.

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.

Take your pick - they come in blue and red stripes and are extremely chic. The Marina PM, for one, looks really great in blue stripes. It's spacious yet fashionable. I strongly recommend this one.<br /><br />To find out more about the Louis Vuitton Cruise Collection '08, <a href="http://www.louisvuitton.com/web/flash/index.jsp;jsessionid=YAMV0UMBGJRU4CRBXUFFAGIKEG4RAUPU?buy=1&langue=en_US">click here</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-34169117433984865202007-11-05T02:07:00.000+08:002007-11-05T09:37:06.872+08:00Splurge of the Week!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqB9KvMjROeTPmDPvRUg885BDzLzeBa-Ew_vHsEj89tCvZehTGDZt1wvj_YzIDOB7SS9fFL3cSQPp3hiFHdvmXRpKpjhMHtS_H9pp-G_7m4w81QuOnZiZ6y9PNipcFMhcl6ez3T64uFuCK/s1600-h/mahina+xl.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqB9KvMjROeTPmDPvRUg885BDzLzeBa-Ew_vHsEj89tCvZehTGDZt1wvj_YzIDOB7SS9fFL3cSQPp3hiFHdvmXRpKpjhMHtS_H9pp-G_7m4w81QuOnZiZ6y9PNipcFMhcl6ez3T64uFuCK/s320/mahina+xl.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5127424668037205650" /></a>Louis Vuitton Mahina XL <br /><br /><br />A soft and supple calf leather, today's Splurge of the Week features the Louis Vuitton Mahina XL - a perforated monogram pattern bag with rolled leather handles, shiny golden brass hardware and buckled bands on each side that creates subtle gathers for the purpose of adjusting capacity in the bag. Although the design doesn't look as if it can accomodate as much as the Louis Vuitton Neverful MM but nevertheless, do not underestimate the Mahina XL. It is sure to withstand the weight of all the girly stuff you cannot leave home without while looking trendy and up-to-date. <br /><br />This roomy tote opens with banded push-lock closure and comes with protective metal feet to keep it away from dust and dirt at all times. Lined with microfiber, the interior zip pocket is leather-trimmed and has a D-ring for hooking your keys to. <br /><br />Priced at $2,980.00, the bag is not only an arm candy but also one that'll suit your everyday needs.

Couldn't find a bigger pic of the bag. I don't know what you guys think of the bag but, Me no Likey! Bagaholic Babe thinks that the Tote would've looked better if the Shearling trimmings were just confined to the top instead of going all round the bag. <br /><br />Next up, a new addition to the <b>Damier</b> Collection - the <b>'Trevi</b><br />Bagaholic Babe has always preferred the Damier to the Monogram Canvas Print, simply because I think the dark brown handles gives the bags a classier-looking vibe. Plus, unlike the Monogram Canvas range, the handles don't turn darker orange-y shades with age and use. Anyway, back to the <b>'Trevi'</b>, the latest addition to the Damier Collection. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnyg8GCF7Nz5v3rnKF_CtSGdhJfmhn_Ix5vCXxtI8E2XYs2YeR1VxX2E_BRqylRxH2KU-n24eTRqajPOjxrczN2uoC720n0zrdYLtXaU2WU4UXfLm804KCehJJT2pDXe2VfhohBWi08wY/s1600-h/LV+Damier+Trevi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnyg8GCF7Nz5v3rnKF_CtSGdhJfmhn_Ix5vCXxtI8E2XYs2YeR1VxX2E_BRqylRxH2KU-n24eTRqajPOjxrczN2uoC720n0zrdYLtXaU2WU4UXfLm804KCehJJT2pDXe2VfhohBWi08wY/s400/LV+Damier+Trevi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5107826756113398370" /></a><br /><br />The 'Trevi' comes in 2 sizes, Small (PM) and Large (GM) - both are complete with a removable shoulder strap, as shown above. I don't know about ya'll my fellow BagAddicts, but the moment I saw this bag, it occurred to me that it resembles the 'It' Bag', the <b>Marc Jacobs 'Stam' Bag</b>. I guess this resemblance lies in the shape and overall structure of the bag. Afterall, since Marc Jacobs is also the Head Designer/Creative Director for the House of Vuitton, it's no surprise that both the two bags look somewhat alike.Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-37038952922841542792007-07-25T10:22:00.000+08:002007-07-25T21:02:26.248+08:00New -- Louis Vuitton Neo Cabby ToteHere's the latest addition to Louis Vuitton's <b>Monogram Denim </b> Family - the Neo Cabby Tote.<br />Available in Black or Blue Denim (both shown below), this Neo Cabbby Tote comes in 2 sizes - the Medium (MM), which is big enough to hold your A4 officedocuments and the Large (GM).

This 'Neverfull' bag is an apt name for the bag as it has drawstring sides and hence, is expandable. So, whether it be for travel or for work, it's the ideal bag for you. It comes in 3 sizes, small (PM), Medium (GM) and Large (GM) and retails for $575, $620 and $665 respectively.

Err, much to my dismay, this Fall '07, the 'Lockit' now joins the 'Speedy' and the 'Alma' of Last Fall's Miroir Collection. I've never been a fan of the <b>Miroir</b> Collection. It's just too loud too <i>'bling-y'</i>, too plasticky and 'vinyl-y' and too 'in your face'. But the celebs and A-Listers seem to fancy it and some of us commonfolk too... Ah well, one man's meat is another man's poison. I guess the only consolation is that the 'Lockit' in Monogram Miroir is much better looking than the Speedy and the Alma. For those of you who like the <b>Miroir</b> then feast your eyes.

From the Fall/Winter 2007 Collection, this Fendi 'Forever Sequined Borsa' is in its signature Zucchiino-print fabric (small 'FF' logo) accented with clear sequins allover. I love the multicoloured metallic Orange/Pink/Blue/Gold calfskin leather trims, but I know I'd certainly prefer it if the bag came without the sequins. Well one thing's for sure, this bag will definitely <i>'Pop'</i> and get you noticed during the Fall/Winter season!

I've only chosen a few bags from the F/W '07 Collection to write about, mainly the new shapes and designs that are new to the House of Fendi. Of course, there are the regular Classic Fendi Bags, such as the Chef bag in Patent Leather, etc, but I've left these out because they are not new shapes. The bags pictured here are slightly more innovative - channelling the edgy, Deconstructed vibe. Most of the bags can be converted into clutches for the evening, however, Imho, the bags from this collection aren't necessarily fantastic looking. <br /><br />First up, the <b>the Raddica Boston Bag</b><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWM8tNjw4Xu31S1mIsmFer8Brjx0PN6GEuKdUjeRy-Z5f_htAMr4SftsL6caaawme4zgrqijF_lWvzNcw-DlT5EhesLoFlu2vy5xPxqkX9f8oU19ba8S3GzPBGpNZQUzim88he-cCl0Tw/s1600-h/Raddica+Boston+Bag.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWM8tNjw4Xu31S1mIsmFer8Brjx0PN6GEuKdUjeRy-Z5f_htAMr4SftsL6caaawme4zgrqijF_lWvzNcw-DlT5EhesLoFlu2vy5xPxqkX9f8oU19ba8S3GzPBGpNZQUzim88he-cCl0Tw/s400/Raddica+Boston+Bag.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5075539832732654882" /></a><br /><br />Following in the footsteps of Louis Vuitton, this F/W '07 Season sees Fendi experimenting with the Patchwork style.

I'd say the Multicolour 'To You' Purse is the probably the only bag I like from Fendi's F/W '07, and coming from a Fendiholic herself.. I've been raving about this Multicolour 'To You' Bag since I saw it at Fendi's lacklustre F/W '07 Showing at <a href="http://bagfetish-unleashed.blogspot.com/2007/03/presenting-fendi-fallwinter-2007.html">Fashion Week</a href>.

For, what F/W collection would ever be complete without something in Shearling? Besides fur, Shearling is the other must-have in every F/W Collection. This F/W, Fendi's Classic 'Chef' Bag is made of Ivory knit and given a Shearling coat, trimmed with dark brown leather and brown beading details. Like all Fendi Chef Bags, this Shearling Chef has Fendi's cutout logo charm. This is called a 'Shopping Chef' Bag because unlike Fendi's signature Chef bags with flap top closures, this particular one is open-topped. <b>Pre-Order</b> this seasonal bag for a hefty $5,040 from Neiman Marcus.

This <b>'Monogram Olympe'</b> Collection consists of 3 bags - the Cirrus, the Stratus and the Nimbus. This 'Olympe' Collection was inspired by Greek Mythology and Mount Olympus (hence 'Olympe' Collection). Made of lamb leather, Louis Vuitton's signature monogram logo print is embroidered (utilising elastic thread) onto the leather to create the smoky, fleecy effect and to give it a buffed washed look and feel. <br /> <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmyW5t0GR9WlGeCOagXg5SkOdb3iconBWpupm_jbARguprH71PCRCUILUHVRl2osVkCuyjCRjmUuDi5eD9gKY56cpOhKMy03b6CU_r8Tgf9QYHlDSyWyPACQUdhcorQsN-Z62Cb9VLnGQ/s1600-h/LV+Olympe+-Cirrus.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmyW5t0GR9WlGeCOagXg5SkOdb3iconBWpupm_jbARguprH71PCRCUILUHVRl2osVkCuyjCRjmUuDi5eD9gKY56cpOhKMy03b6CU_r8Tgf9QYHlDSyWyPACQUdhcorQsN-Z62Cb9VLnGQ/s400/LV+Olympe+-Cirrus.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5061087940509689618" /></a><br />Monogram Olympe - 'Cirrus', $1800 Euros<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyaS8R1x0L_GmWIVDpASp4hCZ4Q9JFzOdF7QtzivalSGVyhQxCwvGSSPFJm_YISXPlDc10x6GbRy0aJibUPHoeeHWIxlxWmsugEVFG20BRVMpa8XrLL3S98ScKj3WAmi5DJz1v7-6uzvY/s1600-h/LV+Olympe+-Nimbus.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyaS8R1x0L_GmWIVDpASp4hCZ4Q9JFzOdF7QtzivalSGVyhQxCwvGSSPFJm_YISXPlDc10x6GbRy0aJibUPHoeeHWIxlxWmsugEVFG20BRVMpa8XrLL3S98ScKj3WAmi5DJz1v7-6uzvY/s400/LV+Olympe+-Nimbus.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5061087940509689634" /></a><br />Monogram Olympe - Nimbus, $1700 Euros<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpsP0UlQka4TRvlfTr0CIFmDdEn2Oms-qFEBOvGdPxudM1jDzaIYCufb9YkXAmepdHRR31M_WyaYlOHRmbpbJmDPjljQ8pXwz5BrVEDj095IfsJxP5JnmfIWqEzIsh4PIqb3ZgeQXE6u0/s1600-h/LV+Olympe+-Stratus.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpsP0UlQka4TRvlfTr0CIFmDdEn2Oms-qFEBOvGdPxudM1jDzaIYCufb9YkXAmepdHRR31M_WyaYlOHRmbpbJmDPjljQ8pXwz5BrVEDj095IfsJxP5JnmfIWqEzIsh4PIqb3ZgeQXE6u0/s400/LV+Olympe+-Stratus.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5061087944804656946" /></a><br />Monogram Olympe - Stratus GM, $2,200 Euros<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYfDMEzaVwSiSpWyoEdMSunpS3k0nd8JeqKUjOAD9T-3Elkt9yRQ3X5AXOWNl6FdDF0eoMg6Soa79JSdiqJmtYiLsVMOoIc_RrTYKdGktdMInVZ6vXd7CUvk2rec-y7RYcXibyK8yGlXY/s1600-h/LV+Olympe+Closeup.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYfDMEzaVwSiSpWyoEdMSunpS3k0nd8JeqKUjOAD9T-3Elkt9yRQ3X5AXOWNl6FdDF0eoMg6Soa79JSdiqJmtYiLsVMOoIc_RrTYKdGktdMInVZ6vXd7CUvk2rec-y7RYcXibyK8yGlXY/s400/LV+Olympe+Closeup.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5061087944804656962" /></a><br />Monogram Olympe - Detail Closeup<br /><br /><br /><br />Bagaholic Babe's fave pick is the <b>Stratus GM</b>.
