We! We! Louis!


Everyone probably already know’s what bag this is. You might even know who sports it, especially if you watch daytime TV. I love all handbags, especially fashionable ones such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Fendi. I would have to say that this might be one of my favorite bags of all time, actually coming from the most recognizable designer’s of all time.Louis Vuitton and his French style has influenced and left a huge mark on the fashion industry, specifically handbags. So much so, Vuitton is also infiltrating the jewelry scene with a new jewelry line and more.Recently, Oprah had designer Marc Jacobs, Mattel, and the founder of the Jimmy Choo shoe line, as guest on her show. As you know, most of Oprah’s guest often bring gifts for her and or her audience. Well, this day, designer Marc Jacobs (which also happen to be one my most favorite designer’s of all time’s…my role model) brought his spring collection and you guessed it, this exquisite masterpiece of a purse. Unfortunately, this picture doesn’t do this handbag any justice at all. Note: Marc Jacobs is over the design team for Louis Vuitton International. Great look ha!!


This a Louis Vuitton monogram bag, with contrasting ostrich, lizard, python and accenting cabochons-a nicely shaped gemstones. Examples would include sapphires and rubies. The view of this bag from the Oprah’s show was truly magnificent. The ostrich, lizard and python skin offset and complimented the overall traditional Louis monogram so nicely; this bag can be worn with anything, everyday. This is the type of handbag that definitely stands ALONE!!! Only downside, if you’re wearing this bag, it will be the centerpiece of attention, not your outfit. But on the other hand, who would wear this handbag with any old thing. My motto, if bag is exquisite, gear is exquisite-that’s outfit of course (lol).


I would have to say that my favorite part of this bag is the orange toned ostrich skin at the top half, but I really love the entire purse, what can I say I love anything Louis Vuitton touches!!!
