Louis Vuitton: 150 years of Trunks at Musee Carnavalet

Now this is what I call a Trunk Show!

On display at the Carnavalet Museum is a collection of more than 200 trunks representing the history and art of the luxurious Louis Vuitton brand.

In 1854 Louis Vuitton opened his first store in Paris at the Rue Nueve des Capucines, where he would sell his classic flat trunk to wealthy Parisians and travelers.

Since then Louis Vuitton has become the epitome of “Travelling in style”. Their bags and luggage collection are now world renowned for their artisanry.

Paris Fashion Week: Fall 2007 Ready-to-Wear Louis Vuitton

Its hard to beleive that March Jacobs has been at LV for ten years now. But we can see so much maturity in his work, it’s ineveitable as such a perceptive mind could have only matured to this level peresnt on the runway. There is still utlra femine looks, but with a edge known to Marc. French culture and glamour mix with american flare. The play on the typical french Beret and the use of belts with everything from the fluffy bubble dresses to the more suit-like creations makes for a collection that is easy ripped off the runway ready for store fronts all over a la Paris or NYC.
J’adore Louis Vuitton!




I’m so in love wit these shoes!!! There’s killing it!

Hail my Oversized bags!!


My favorite all-purpose oversized bag!

Yesterday on my way out of the house I wanted to take a small handbag with me. Then it suddenly dawned on me. Wait, I dont own a small handbag! Mon Dieu!
I’ve never had this problem before, I was always concerned with taking “my house” with me in my handbags- i’m always prepared.
But being that yesterday was my birthday and a self designated non-working day, I had nothing to carry around.

Well, I’m back to carrying big bags as the day has come and gone(sigh).

But It got me wondering what do other women carry in thier big bags, and which big bags shall i set my eyes on next. Got any suggestions?

I also love classic logo bags, like this Gucci Hobo.

Louis Vuitton silver mirror “Speedy” satchel, $1,150, at www.louisvuitton.com

Shinny shinny, if you’d rather your bag be seen before you, try this one! I think its cute, i’d rock in in a gold one though.
