Release five days ago, the Monogram Stresa is the latest addition to the Monogram Core Collection. Named after a resort town in Northern Italy, the city bag comes in two sizes: PM ($1360) and GM ($1520). The size is pretty much like the Montorgueil so it would be a perfect shoulder bag for ladies (and gents) on the move. The Damier Azur version is slated to be released this November.

Nothing LVike a fantastic Monogram Canvas Collection! LVoe it!!!
I have been so busy with work and family that I forgot to post this latest lil' purchase that I made for October ~ a vintage Louis Vuitton lock with combination. I had to debate on this acquisition because it was a tad bit pricey and I was not sure of its authenticity. Eventually, my desire to have a vintage piece overrode my hesitations and now the lock dangles comfortably with my Mini Lin. As for the question of it being genuine, the level of crafstmanship is a testament that it is indeed LV. Question: Should I buff it or keep the well worn patina? LVoe it!!! October 13, 2009 063

The Mon Monogram~I haven't seen a lot of this around. So when Robert from Down Under sent me photos of his Keepall 55 Bandouliere, it was a pleasant surprise. I am intrigued what color combinations work and definitely Robert's does. Thanks for sending it in, R. Enjoy it in good health. LVoe it!!!
Waking up in a strange hotel without your creature comforts is hard. I experienced that last week when I was away on business. So when Geo sent in this photo of Louis Vuitton's answer to the travelling clock, I was thrilled. Designed akin to their Tambour Collection, this mundane piece of machinery is 1500 euros (roughly $2200)! Wow, that's pretty pricey for an alarm clock. LVoe it though!
Shopping hauls from Paris always thrills me but a honeymoon haul is doubly special. Jessica from Down Under was married on September 5 this year and she and her hubby flew to the City of Lights to celebrate the happy union. No trip to Paris would be complete without passing through the doors of the Maison and I must say that her choices were fantastic to say in the least. I LVoe most especially her Mechanic Pearl Bracelet. Here is J's final note in her e-mail: "I will have to email you a picture of our wedding album when it's finished... we have ordered an Azur Cotteville for the case and our photographer is customising an interior so the album can be featured. I hope it will all turn out! " Thanks, Jessica for sharing your wonderful pics. I can't wait to see your wedding album LVoe it!!!
