Johnny was Robbed :)

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

I'm just loving the Olympics this year! Are you watching? I can't get enough of US figure skater, Johhny Weir. He's so much fun to watch on the ice... You can tell he's having fun- and that's just a pleasure to behold!  Was he robbed last night, or what? :(   But he's equally as fun to watch off the ice!  Always drama!

Anyway, I remembered this article that I read a long time ago about what a Fashionnphile he is! It talks about the Louis Vuitton bag he's carrying- with his Gucci change purse, Louis Vuitton camera case and Balenciaga wallet inside. It's a fun read!

Love the Louis Vuitton black monogram denim shawl he's wearing in the picture above- and we've got a pre-owned authentic Louis Vuitton monogram shawl that looks very similar on our website right now for about $50 less than retail.  Take a look!

If you're not already on Twitter- seriously, you're missing out!  I'm loving how easy it is to stay up on all the timely topics- and how quickly I find out what's new!

I thought for those of you bag loving fashionphiles out there- I'd give you a list of my favorite Top Twenty handbag/ fashion focused twitterers!  I tried to include those who are the most interesting, active- and relevant.  Let me know if I left anyone out!!!

 Jimmy Choo Victoria Beckham

(credit: Pursepage)

Please excuse the blast from the past Duran, Duran reference... but I'm loving this fabulous Black leather "Rio" clutch from Jimmy Choo.  Victoria looks so hot- from head to foot.  I mean, we all love Jimmy Choo shoes- but he really nailed it in the handbag department with this one.  I love a good shoulder bag, but you can also wear it like Posh does- as a clutch.

Either way, we can help you "Wear what she's wearing"...

Jimmy Choo Rio

We've got this bag- an amazing pre-owned authentic black Jimmy Choo Rio on our website right now.    Check it out!

And here's a little trip back for any of you children of the 80's: 

Styles available at Brooklyn Museum’s Louis Vuitton store!

Monday, March 24th, 2008

From the Brooklyn Museum of Art press release:

"A selection of Monogram Multicolor bags and small leather goods will be available for sale for the duration of the © MURAKAMI exhibition. Styles for sale include the Alma, Speedy, Ursula, Beverly, Rita, Eugénie, and Alexandra. Just as the MOCA store presented a number of limited-edition Monogram canvasses revisited by Takashi Murakami, the Brooklyn store will also offer a new version of these "Editioned Canvasses," signed by the artist and sold as exclusive art products. The new version, called Monogramouflage, is an exciting new pattern created by Takashi Murakami for Louis Vuitton, and gives viewers a glimpse of a bright new product line that will be launched at the Brooklyn Museum Louis Vuitton store on June 1 before being sold in selected Louis Vuitton stores worldwide. As the store may generate revenues, part of them will be donated to the Federal Enforcement Homeland Security Foundation."

Oh, so interesting.  So will the Louis Vuitton multicolore be just standard issue, or limited edition Murakami Brooklyn Museum specials?  We'll have to see.

There's a whole bunch of Murakami stuff on the Brooklyn Museum website- available now, but no Louis Vuitton.

Monogramouflage will actually be officially unveiled at Louis Vuitton's "Brooklyn Ball" launch party on April 3!

Live in NY and wanna work for Louis Vuitton?

Monday, March 24th, 2008

 Well, it might not be at a boutique, and who knows about whether or not you'd get company discounts... but LVMH is still accepting applications for the @Murakami exhibit in-store Brooklyn Museum of Art Louis Vuitton boutique.

Did you know? The history behind the Louis Vuitton Striped Tanger Sac Plat?

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Louis Vuitton Tanger Sac Plat

As you well know- I love the history and meaning behind so much of what comes out of Louis Vuitton. This is what I find timeless about the brand in general.

I'd been wanting to write about the history about the striped Tanger- and in my search for images actually found another great blog entry on the same subject in the Excess Baggage blog by Deluxe Duck... be sure to check it out!

Louis Vuitton Vintage Steamer
(The personal bag of Gaston-Louis Vuitton, 1901 from Pasol's, Louis Vuitton)

Louis Vuitton Vintage Keepall
(An early prototype of the Keepall- 1930, again with Gaston's initial, from Pasol's, Louis Vuitton)

The Louis Vutton striped Tanger Sac Plat borrows it's central, geometric "V" initial from Gaston's early monogram. It has the red center on the V on a white background. Mini Lin Tanger Sac Plat bags (Ebene and Camel) will borrow the blue center, with light blue- not white.

Louis Vuitton Vintage Trunk Striped liniing
(from eBay seller anythingluxury's vintage Louis Vuitton approx 1885 trunk)

Louis Vuitton striped trunk tanger lining

The unique striped fabric that makes up the exterior of this particular Sac Plat is reminiscent of early trunk lining. (You'll find similar striped linings in the Sac Trianon line- and including the Trianon Neverfull.

The striped Tanger Sac Plat is no longer available in stores. It was a S/S 2005 men's bag- so they're hard to get your hands on. Lucky for you, we happen to have one of these amazing limited edition pieces on eBay right now!

Check out our pre-owned authentic Louis Vuitton striped Tanger Sac Plat. Remember- if you win it and mention that you saw it on my blog- you get free shipping!

(Louis Vuitton Watercolor Aquarelle Frame)

You knew it wouldn't take long. While just technically launched yesterday, they're already up on eBay!

And, while I love to promote our own bags (we have a ton of amazing pieces on eBay and on our fashionphile.com website right now- including our own Richard Prince for Louis Vuitton Heartbreak Joke bag), ya gotta hand it to eBoutique! She's got some killer stuff. Loving seeing the new Richard Prince watercolor bags up.

She's got the Louis Vuitton Watercolor Aquarelle Frame Speedy pictured above, the Watercolor Aquarelle Papillon, and the Watercolor Jamais. Take a look.

Very cool, indeed.
