Hmmm… well, we’ve got Trina on the left at the BET Awards on the 24th or Rihanna at Da Silvano in the West Village last Friday?

Dang it, I mean… you know how I have a hard time with this- I really don’t want to be mean.  And, well, Trina’s a cute girl and is it really fair to put her next to Rihanna in black leather (or is it latex?) that makes her legs go on, like foreverrrrr?

Rihanna’s just looking so amazing- and the Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage really stands out on her black from top to toe outfit.

I actually like Trina’s dress (although I’d wear it a few inches longer) and she looks great.  Can I really blame the poor girl for being excited to get her new Monogramouflage bag out there?  But, I’m going with Rihanna on this one…  Camo’s just not working for me with the yellow.

What do you think?

Both attractive woman… and neither are cast members of High School Musical!  (apparently this is important to some of my readers… you know who you are!)

OK… gosh this is hard.  Sometimes I’ll put two pictures side by side, and think to myself, “this is just mean!”- one looks so much better than the other.

But here we’ve got gorgeous 50 something Heather Locklear and 40 something Paula Abdul both looking pretty dang amazing with their Louis Vuitton Vernis Houston handbags.

I love Paula’s Amarante vernis Houston with the darkeness of her sunnies, buttons and shoes.  But then again, Heather’s Beige Hoston fits right in with the Monocromatic look she’s rocking.

The truth is, I do like a little color- and while Amarante is very, very dark- it’s a really amazing color when it hits the light.  So, I’m going with Paula on this one…  I just really think her whole look is “spot on”!

The Louis Vuitton Houston’s a great bag… and you could pick one up too at your local Louis Vuitton Boutique or eLuxury for it’s $1520 retail price (plus tax).  Then again, you could always pick up our authentic pre-owned red vernis Louis Vuitton Houston.  It’s pictured above and has a BIN of almost HALF retail- and a reserve of even less than that!

Check it out!

I’m a bag lady… so what can I say- it’s hard for me to even look beyond the KILLER bags…

I totally love the Louis Vuitton Motard Biker.  Beyonce’s exotic skin trim really looks hot on the black leather… and can you go wrong with black?

But then again, I do love a little color and Rihanna’s bag is just talking to me (loving the little sunburst on the hardware…)  What do you think?

This bag is so hot and retailed for $4000.   Unfortunately, it is no longer available.  If you’re loving it too… you can wear one too.  We have an authentic black pre-owned Louis Vuitton Motard Biker on eBay for $750 blow retail right now!  Be sure to check it out!

Here we’ve got Paris Hilton and Christina Ricci both carrying the Louis Vuitton Irvine.  OK, I know it’s not really fair to pit a candid shot against a catalog pic… but hear me out.

So Paris’ is a candid picture.  Probably one of hundreds taken by paparazzi that day.  But she looks fantastic…  and I really love her choice in bags.  The Louis Vuitton Irvine really completes the look and complements her dress.

And, what can you say… Christina looks AMAZING in this Louis Vuitton ad for the F/W 2004 Velour Irvine. Really.  Just stunning.  Overall, I do just love Ricci here- and I love her hair, her dress, her look and the whole feel of the layout… and I think the Irvine was the perfect choice- to accent that feel.

But… it’s a photo shoot.  We’ve got some serious photoshop going on here, and lighting, and costuming, etc.

I really love Christina’s layout, but I’m going with Paris on this one…

The Louis Vuitton Velour line came out F/W 2004 in limited edition.  You just can’t get them anymore from Louis Vuitton, or eLuxury.  If you’d just love to wear what they’re wearing- we have an authentic, pre-owned Louis Vuitton Velour Irvine on eBay right now.  It’s a gorgeous bag- that you could pick up for a great price.  Be sure to check it out…

Well… I thought it would be fun to pit sisters against sisters.  So what do you think?  Who’s wearing the Louis Vuitton Cerises Speedy 25 Better?  The Hilton’s or the Simpsons?

I have a hard time calling it for the Hilton sisters- because poor Jessica is clearly just out picking up some milk at Ralphs.  And, I think we can all agree that the black hair phase was never a good one for Ashley.

I’m going to have to go with Nikky Hilton here.  She’s looking so good it doesn’t matter that Paris is wearing Dr. Pepper sweats.

If you’re loving her look- you can have it too!  As you know that Cerises line was a limited edition.  You can’t get it at the boutique or on eLuxury.  But we have an authentic pre-owned Louis Vuitton Cerises Speedy 25 on eBay right now.  Check it out!

Again, comparing nearly anyone at pretty much any time to Angelina Jolie is just plain mean. In fairness- Ms. Electra is clearly in a hurry or is all excited about whatever it is she just heard on the phone. But still, this one’s one of those easy picks. Even with her shirt hanging off her skinny little shoulders- Angelina’s look is white hot!

Carmen & Angelina obviously get the versitility and simple style- both are seen wearing this bag quite a bit! (Angelina also has the Mezzo- which I blogged about in my “Mom bag” post).

But, what’s there not to love about the Louis Vuitton Monogram Cabas Piano? It’s the smallest of the triplet- with its big sisters, the Mezzo & discontinued Alto. You can have this look too… you could obviously go down to your local boutique or onto www.eluxury.com and pick one up for $995 plus tax… or, you could stop on by our FASHIONPHILE eBay listings and take a look at the authentic pre-owned monogram Louis Vuitton Cabas Piano that we have listed! Save a few hundred dollars, and look like a million!

Hmmm… so here we go.  You know I always feel kind of bad playing this game- especially when one “player” obviously looks better than the other.  But this one I can do!

So, what do you think?  Who is wearing the Louis Vuitton Multicolore Keepall 45 better?  Unapologetic, amateur sex tape star and semi-celebutante Paris Hilton, or Unapologetic, amateur sex tape star and semi-celebutante Kim Kardashian?

I’m definitely more into Keeping up with Kim on this one.  Her Juicy track suit looks great with her skin-tone AND all the pinks in the multicolore.  That Keepall is striking and the vachetta looks fresh.

Paris looks like she needs an upgrade.  I know it’s a dark picture, but the leather on her bag  looks like it’s been around the block a couple of times.  (Which I guess makes sense, for Paris’ luggage.)   We’d love to help her out!

We have an authentic, pre-owned white multicolore Louis Vuitton Keepall 45 (the only size Keepall available for the Multicolore line) on eBay right now!  It’s a gorgeous bag with a ton of pinks and purples right up front where we like them!

Of course, Paris could pick up a new Keepall down the street, at the Rodeo Louis Vuitton for $2000 (well, I guess till yesterday when they unveiled their latest price increase).  Unfortunately, it’s sold out on Eluxury right now.

OK… I’ve already said that I hate these little games, they’re so mean! But that said, what do you think? Who looks better sporting the classic monogram Louis Vuitton Musette?

Again- it’s like these Disney Channel Divas all wear the same bags (think Ashley & Vanessa Hudgens). The truth is, I like the Miley’s complete look- and it works with a strong shoulder bag, like the Musette. But, Ashley’s wearing it messenger style- and it’s a great, young look. Here she is at Shop Intuition, wearing it on her shoulder:

If you’re into the look, but don’t want to pay the whole $960 to pick it up from a Louis Vuitton Boutique or Eluxury.com… you know we’ve got you covered!

We have a guaranteed authentic, really well cared for (and rarely carried) monogram Louis Vuitton Musette on eBay right now, for far less than authentic. Take a look!
