Let's Cruise on Over Part Deux

I just pruned my roses today due to the LVoely weather and I thought to myself, wow, Spring is already upon us! So I figured, I will have to feature the rest of the Cruise 2009 Collection. First off, the Monogram Scuba Totes . Coming in sizes GM and MM, these neoprene Neverfulls are a delight to see. I heard that the GM is humongous and a sales associate could well fit it in. I've only seen the MM that Angel is dying for. The black leather trim also give some classiness to the look of the bag. Both sizes comes in fuchsia and orange and are priced at $2580 GM and $1940 MM. Moyen Modele Grand Modele Lastly, we have the super-cute Monogram Scuba Clutch from this line. Sporting the 1929 ad in a miniature plate, this is perfect for carrying just the essentials. Clutch is priced at $725. Visit www.louisvuitton.com or save on tax at eLUXURY.com . LVoe it!!!

Next Top Model goes to Africa with LV Prize

Tyra Banks has announced that a new version of her Next Top Model franchise will be set in Africa. The winner is expected to walk away with a contract with Tyra's modelling agency and will co-host in the Tyra Banks’ show. But here's the big prize that I am more interested in. The lucky girl will have a six-month contract to be the new face of Louis Vuitton!!! I wonder if they are going to feature her for the Fall Winter 2009 2010 collection. Women from Nigeria, South Africa, Mozambique, Swaziland, Botswana, Zambia, Ivory Coast and Cape Verde Islands are to compete for the prestigious title of Africa’s Next Top Model 2009. The auditions will be held on March 28 at the Sandton Convention Centre, where 100 ladies will be selected to launch the competition on April 10 at Monte Casino. The show will first be aired on e.tv on April 15. Source: madondo.co.za

For Jewelry LVoers

For those of you who like to travel with a boatload of jewelry (ahem...Jee) and can never seem to find the perfect carrying case for them, have no fear! Louis Vuitton is releasing two new pieces for the Monogram Canvas and Vernis collection. Pictured above is a tie-a-knot jewelry case that would fit snugly in any luggage. This piece reminds me of tool sets sold at the Home Depot. Now, if you prefer a stately and luxurious case, why not consider the Vernis one pictured below. Patterned after cases of a lost era, this travelling jewelry box would surely fit your diamonds, pearls and even Angelina Jolie's famed Columbian emeralds. Slated to be released this April, no prices are available as of yet. LVoe it!!! Photo of cases: Jenny

I wish I could read Japanese...

LVoe the Cherry Blossom detail. Soon DC will also be filled with them!

Check out the Boetie on the Japanese Website

Pretty cool video! Visit www.louisvuitton.com.

Rihanna & Chris Brown...NO COMMENT...

But look at the LV's they are carrying! Rihanna with her Gold Miroir Alma and Chris with his special order Miroir Christopher. Hmmm...I guess LV used another material for the Christopher since it looks pliable and Miroir is definitely not pliable! Perhaps a thinner polyvinyl or even leather?! Also, the color tone is quite different from that of the Alma but it could probably be just lighting and angles. Oh well, whatever it is, it's a lotta *bling*, for sure!!! CORRECTION PLEASE: MY BAD. I thought the bag Chris is carrying is an LV. But I was duly informed by my male readers that it is in fact a BBC bag that was inspired by Vuitton's Christopher. Thanks, guys!!!

From London with LVoe

Friends with LV's is always a good thing so it's so nice to receive this pic from fellow Filipino, April who resides in London (one of my favourite cities in the world, mind you). A, is the one toting her Bellevue PM in Pomme while her bestfriend on the other hand has a Summit Drive of the same color. Seems to me you guys are having a jolly gudol' time out there. Photo taken from her recent trip to Pampanga. Thanks for sharing and LVoe it!!!

First LVook: Louis Vuitton Multicolore Judy

Another gift from fellow blogger Bagaholicboy.com is this picture of the latest addition to Takashi Murakami's Multicolore line: the Judy. A handheld-shoulder bag combo sporting a chain strap and a rectangular opening that is framed in metal, I wonder if this is as big as the Ursula. I LVoe how they incorporated the "Vuitton pleat" in the Multicolore line. Ever since the Tivoli came out, I am enjoying this LV signature popping out in Marc's designs. The bag will come in three sizes PM $1390, MM $1890, GM $2160 and of course in both black and white. Release date is April 1. LVoe it!!!

Also Coming Out: Louis Vuitton Cabas Capri

This season's counterpart to the successful Tahitienne of Spring Summer 2008, the Cabas Capri or Ipanema . (hmmm...I guess Marc couldn't decide which is the more fabulous location that embodies this bag) Gone is the 1920's print and is replaced by smaller monogram flowers but is of the same material as the Tahitienne. The bag is wide so it's great for those beach outings. It comes in either Rose, Jaune, Marine or Sable and is slated to be released this April. Prices & sizes are GM $1210 8.7" x 14.2 x 22 and PM $1050 6.7" x12.2 x20.1. Photo of Rose: Jenny UPDATE ~ UPDATE ~ UPDATE: Gifts of photos from Bagaholicboy.com Jaune Marine Sable

Imagine No More: Louis Vuitton Monogram Totally

Thanks to Jenny of the tPF, we have now an actual pic of the Monogram Totally. Hmmm...it doesn't seem to work as well as the Damier Azur but I have yet to see it in real life. The long shoulder straps are a big plus though as it looks like it's a great utility bag.

First LVook: Louis Vuitton Reporter Bag

Now that we have digested the Louis Vuitton Fall Winter 2009 2010 Fashion show, (albeit not completely) let us now turn to pieces that are coming soon to our friendly, neighborhood boutiques. Featured here is the latest reinterpretation of LV's classic shape, the Reporter Bag. Coming in two colorways for Spring Summer 2009, the minimal and sleek design will be a sure winner for our male LVoers. More info about them soon. LVoe it!!! Photo: hypebeast

Lola Chanel

After the initial excitement over yesterday's Fall Winter 2009 2010 Collection had passed, I got to look more closely at the bags. There is definitely that Chanel influence. Bags with chain straps and the ever iconic Mademoiselle lock are staples of the House. Some people might find this disappointing or even downright sacrilegious. But for me, it just goes to show that Gabrielle Chanel's design is as enduring and timeless as ever and could even transcend outside her own brand. I LVoe you, Lola Coco!
