Graffiti Mania-Agyness Deyn and Louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse Graffiti Bag

Graffiti, created by Stephen Sprouse, maybe is the most popular patterns from LV since the iconic monogram. English model Agyness Deyn posed for a photo with her lime green Stephen Sprouse Graffiti Louis Vuitton Purse during Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton’s Stephen Sprouse Tribute Party. The bag is sure is perfect for that occasion, plus knowing that the “street wear” dress code in an 80’s punk theme party was implemented makes everything on her just so ideal.

It is actually one of the two new designs that Louis Vuitton has just released, where the other one is the rose motif on a classic monogram Speedy. The bag holds a Day-Glo shade of lime green which looks great for spring since it is obviously in vibrant shade.

There is also a hot pink version of the bag, which also looks great on anything. Well, I’m not sure though if the bag is apt for its would-be price. And if it does, then this bag would be a great choice to finish off a trendy spring look.10luoyuejun0929

Lambertson Truex Sienna Clutch

Vlad and I will have an exciting interview to share with you this week with the designers behind Lambertson Truex, Richard and John. After we visited the Lambertson Truex store, Vlad fell in love with the Florence and while I love this bag dearly, my heart lies with the Sienna. Ranging in a wide variety of bright spring colors, including turquoise, yellow, and purple, the Lambertson Truex Sienna Clutch masters the art of the perfect hand held bag. There is an option for Nappa leather, ostrich, snakeskin, along with a combination of some of the above. The ostrich was divine, but I was drawn to the combination of the most silky soft Nappa leather bag paired with snakeskin trim on the top. This compilation is divine. You must go and hold a Lambertson Truex bag if you have not yet. The craftsmanship is impeccable, as Lambertson Truex pays close attention to the details. But again, I will keep coming back to it, the leather is so sumptuous! I could not keep my hands off of the bag (and still can not, as I picked it up in yellow ). The silver metallic version is also a great option, offering that perfect va-voom to your little black dress. The top has a flap closure with a LT logo flip-lock. The inside continues with attention paid to detail; including signature blue suede lining, a zip pocket, and two credit card sections. Measurements are 11″W X 5¾”H X 1″D. If you have not seen one of these bags in person, check them out, because I assure you that you will not be disappointed. Buy through Saks for $995.

Flamingo and Parrot and Gucci

I have to admit that Gucci is really creative in fashion design. It has seldom failed to surprise its loyal clients. This season, it offers some innovative necklaces to meet your fashion and style need. Just to name a few.

The two necklaces that I like very much are both BURBERRY Handbags made from precious sterling silver and enamel. The first necklace has a parrot pendant in green and lengthened at 25.6″ while the second one has a flamingo pendant in blue and a length of 50 cm. people often attracted by the beautiful appeals, but more often it is the originality and cultural ties win people’s heart. Therefore, before I buy any souvenir, I am more interested in the story. It is the same with the two necklaces and the choice of the two birds is no accident. Firstly, due to parrot’s sociable and affectionate nature, intelligence, bright color and ability to imitate human voiced, it has a complicated relationships with human. Secondly, the flamingo tongues were believed a delicacy in Ancient Rome. What’s more, the two birds were worshipped by the Moche people of ancient Peru. They placed emphasis on them and often depicted them in their art.10luoyuejun0928

Fendi Vintage Leather Baguette

So I just brought you the beauty that is the Fendi Rainbow Clutch, but I can see many of you (even me!) thinking it looks drab in the picture. A picture is worth a thousand words, and when a picture neglects to capture the essence of a bag, it can loose potential followers. I am not satisfied with the picture for the rainbow clutch, and even less satisfied with the bold colors on the version photographed. It is harsh and not as chic as the bag looked on the runway. Thankfully Fendi has created other color options to appeal to those who are not fans of the rainbow version, and this picture showcases the bag much better. Saks is carrying the Fendi Vintage Leather Baguette in both ivory and brown leather. This bag features the same appeal as the rainbow version; including elaborate stitching, smooth leather, and an interchangeable shoulder strap. The perk is, that this ivory color is stunning even in pictures! It is so chic and lady-like. The appeal of large clutches is not for everyone, but if you want to pull it off it is a statement piece. Dimensions are 16″W X 8″H X 3″D.

Prada Multicolor Hobo with Stripes

One night I attended a party. As a Gucci handbags lady, I began to look around. My eyes were drawn to her Prada bag and as I stared at the bag I instantly fell in love. She was carrying the Prada Stripes Multicolor Small Hobo in the turquoise-violet combination which looked divine and really was the perfect size. The small version adds the right amount of color splash and spunk, while not taking away from the overall outfit or look. The leather is supple Nappa, which is smooshy to the touch and perfect to showoff the colors. The top handle and shoulder strap are detachable, but I loved this being carried with the small top handle. Dimensions are 9?”W X 7″H X 3?”D. I first posted about the Prada Trembled Blossoms Bag and found it captivating yet pricey for the small size. Now I find it captivating, pricey for its size, but worth it.10luoyuejun0927

Celebrities just can’t wait to jump onto the bandwagon of Graffiti Bag. Now it’s time for Ashlee Simpson who was spotted carrying a Stephen Sprouse-inspired Louis Vuitton Monogram Graffiti Keepall 50, while with husband Pete Wentz who’s carrying a baby car seat and perhaps with baby Bronx Mowgli in it.

Limited Edition, Really, Louis Vuitton?

Keeping on the top of luxury order, Louis Vuitton must has its own tip! Its designers are busy trying to lure in new customers, and keep their established customers spending more and more Hermes Handbags. Louis Vuitton does an exceptional job every season keeping its customers satisfied. Every season we are bombarded with a copious amount of new handbags and accessories to buy, and more often than not the name of the handbag is followed by the words limited edition. These two words spell trouble for bank accounts around the globe as women scramble to be first on the waitlist. Limited edition is often equated with exclusivity and we will gladly pay over $2000 for a canvas bag because only 5000 were produced!

Recently, I have pondered what limited edition really means. Louis Vuitton has recently re-released several limited edition items and has subsequently caused me to really think about my purchases. For example, the Millionaires sunglasses were recently re-released this past summer. Great news for those who missed out the first time, but for those who were lucky to obtain the first time around how do you now feel? Personally, I would feel slighted and angry that the company was dishonest with me! As another example, the Monogram Olympe Nimbus was released for the Spring/Summer 2007 season in two colors. Originally offered as a limited edition item, it has now been re-released for Fall/Winter 2007 in two new colors and a new size!! The Monogram Miroir was re-released in the Lockit style. And the heart coin purse, which sold out in weeks, is also being re-released this upcoming winter!!!

All of this does make me really think about the purchases I will make. Do I buy a bag solely because it is limited edition, or because I love the bag? Do I buy the bag to use it, or to collect it and possibly resell it in the future? If bags and accessories are being re-released it causes the resale value to decline, and of course the exclusivity associated with the brand also starts to decline? If you are hesitant by the hefty price tags on authentic Louis Vuitton Handbag, a cheap Replica Louis Vuitton Handbag is a great alternative.10luoyuejun0921

Claudia Schiffer for Chanel

Claudia Schiffer teamed up with Karl Lagerfeld again for a Chanel photo shoot. The actress abandoned her blonde locks for a 20′s style brunette bobbed hairdo, which was only a wig. She and Karl teamed up again for this photo shoot in NYC. While we do not have photos from the shoot, what you do you think of Claudia’s look? Fierce or a flop?

Heavenly Taste, Moet & Chandon Champagne

Since 1743 when Moët & Chandon was founded, its wines are Hermes Handbags aged slowly and matured among galleries located 30 meters directly below its historic headquarters in Epernay, Champagne, offering an unforgettable insight into the soul of its champagne.

Moët & Chandon has been the symbol of fabulous celebrations for more than two hundred and sixty years. Moët, like the cinema, is a celebration of the senses and the emotions. Celebrities, as their very name implies, have a natural affinity with Moët, the champagne of fabulous celebrations of romance, of success, of a personal triumph or a public achievement, onscreen or off.
Just like the flashbulbs in classic Hollywood movies, the dramatic pop of the cork heightens the atmosphere and assures us something unique is happening. Celebration is an art, the art of creating a shared emotion, the art of sharing magic.

Now, the château de Saran in 1801 as a lodge for Jean-Rémy Moët hunting party, plays host to prestigious guests from around the world, who are invited to sample the delights of Moët & Chandon in this elegant and peaceful setting. If you are just planning your vacation, it is a marvelous idea to write the château de Saran and Moët & Chandon on your schedule.10luoyuejun0920

Debate: Celeb Designers?

Recently an exorbitant amount of ‘celebrities’ have turned into designers. First we had Lauren Condrad for Linea Pelle Handbags, and then we have Lauren Conrad’s debut line, followed by Heidi Montag’s Heidiwood, now we hear of Whitney Port (another girl from The Hills) designing, along with Rachel Bilson and Lindsay Lohan.

While Lindsay Lohan will be sticking to what she knows, leggings, Rachel Bilson will be designing with DKNY jeans. Whitney and Heidi will be debuting small lines of clothing. But what gives? The gals from The Hills are merely ‘reality’ tv stars. Sure Whitney and Lauren interned at Teen Vogue, but would that be enough background to teach them the skills needed to be designers. And Heidi? The blond who is enamored with her boyfriend and seems to have no background in design is debuting a line called ‘Heidiwood’? Have we turned into a society so obsessed with stars that we now allow anyone to design our clothing?

Let’s have a Tuesday debate: Will you look into the lines from these gals, would you ever buy, and what do you think?

Wedding Gifts

The most divine time will come. My wedding! I cannot help to thinking about what gifts I will get. A gift that would have me bowing down at the givers feet would be a Louis Vuitton Handbags. I am determined to own an LV trunk and by-golly if I do not get one as a wedding gift I will use part of the gift money to buy one! Style.com had a mini idea section for good wedding gifts, and my eye got stuck on the Louis Vuitton Steamer Case. This case was first invented in 1901 as a smaller piece of travel luggage to be kept inside of the coveted LV Trunk. Gasp to the most perfect inside addition to the LV Trunk. The price is $3,050. So anyone who will be invited to my wedding, keep this post in mind! If you are hesitant by the hefty price tags on authentic Louis Vuitton Handbag, a cheap Replica Louis Vuitton Handbag is a great alternative.10luoyuejun0916

Prada Fairy Bag Bleeds

We have covered the Prada Fairy Bag ad nauseum, but there is a piece of this story that must not be left out. Who would have known that artist James Jean would have added his art to a bag that landed Prada in the wait list of 3 months “it” bag of the season. Unfortunately for both Prada and James Jean, the bag will not only hold the remembrance of it being one of the most talked about handbags for 2008 but also having a horrible bleeding problem. That is right, the ink on the Prada Fairy bags is bleeding. As this issue unfolds, various members of tPF have come forward giving information, pictures, and evidence of their Fairy Bag’s print bleeding if water touches it.

Louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolor PETIT NOE

As is perhaps known to many people, Monogram multicolor is a creation of Takashi for Louis Vuitton. This Louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolor PETIT NOE is a perfect example of the brimming talent of Takashi. This drawstring bag features the Monogram Multicolor canvas, natural cowhide leather trimming and micro fiber lining. With a size of 9.8″ x 10.6″ x 7.1″, the bag holds a large capacity enriches the range of the Noe bags, which are initially designed to carry champagne bottles. Although it is no longer used to hold champagne bottles, it is the still as functional as it used to be, if not more. The leather strap closure, together with gussets, flap and buckle closures ensures the firmest safety of your belongings; it is multi-functional with two exterior pockets, a interior flat pocket and D-ring to hand “charms”; it can be comfortably carried due to an adjustable shoulder strap. Besides, the bag is trimmed with shiny golden brass metallic pieces.10luoyuejun0914 Lindsay Lohan Style: Name that Bag! I am delighted that we have not seen *much* of Lindsay Lohan after her countless problems and rehab stint. Sure we saw here in Italy with many Italian men, and here and there in the clubs drinking some grape juice with a kick, but she has been laying low (all things considered). I miss oogling her handbag collection. Love her or hate it, admit it, she has quite the amazing collection. I always wondered how the girl from The Parent Trap had one of the hottest and most extensive handbag collections that I have seen, and that is just from the paparazzi photos. Many times she wears recognizable brands, like YSL, but the new designer on the block, Rebecca Minkoff, has also been a fan of Lindsay’s when she wore the Morning After Bag. And again, Lindsay has opted for a handbag that is hard to identify but hard to miss. The black and white diamond shapes on the python skin bag jump out and catch your attention. But what bag is this?

Slim Lambskin Gold Clutch Designed by Sofia Coppola

Recently, a rather hot topic in the fashion kingdom is the cooperation of Louis Vuitton and the young directress Sofia Coppola. Actually, it is her who combines practical pattern and luxury materials together, which brings out the best in each other: the low-key luxury of Louis Vuitton and the simple elegance of Sofia Coppola. This slim lambskin gold clutch is a good example. Crafted in an eye-catching and delicate gold metallic lambskin, this slim clutch has the ideal design for an elegant evening use. Besides gold metallic lambskin, it also contains dark brown lambskin and micro fiber lining. This clutch is rather handy: sized at 8.3″ x 5.1″ x 1.1″; it can be squeezed to open the golden brass pieces; having two components and three slots for credit cards at your convenience; with over mirror and soft sleeve. It is said that the first sight impression is very significant, and I think it true either for man or for bag. I bet that you will love the clutch at the very first sight.10luoyuejun0910 Rebecca Romijn Style: Coach Ostrich Lily The Lily is a new design from Coach that actually has my attention. It is a cute shape, style, and great daily wear. There is a black and camel leather version of the Coach Lily, but if you are a special person, you have the opportunity to get your hands on an ostrich version. The Coach Ostrich Lily was the bag of choice for Rebecca Romijn in the stunning red Bordeaux. Romijn, along which other celebrities such as Eva Longoria, are opting for some of the exotics bags from Coach. Coach bags have always been popular and are many women’s first bag into the designer handbag world. But as the market expands, Coach does too, and while some are not keen on spending thousands on an exotic bag from Coach, some are. The Coach Lily in ostrich retails for $7,000 (model # 11160). It is also available in a Brass/Mahogany ostrich combination.
