Louis Vuitton in Paris!

Louis Vuitton Store Champs Elysees

After spending 5 days in Paris chowing down on delicious croissants, crepes and wine, shopping in hip Parisian boutiques and of course taking in all of the art and gorgeous sights I could see, I almost didn’t return to NYC! But I’m back to blog about my new love, Paris, and my longtime love, handbags!

All over Paris I spotted women (and men!) with very haute handbags (and manbags!) and chic footwear, mainly boots. But I have to say I was surprised to see only a handful of Louis Vuitton bags gracing the arms of Parisian women. In fact, I believe the only women carrying LV bags were tourists! Being a tourist myself and Louis Vuitton lover and handbag addict, I dragged my sister to the LV store on the the Ave. des Champs Elysees. (She thought I was crazy to take a picture of the store!) Anyway, I found two bags that I completely fell in love with but didn’t buy in France thanks to the Euro completely crushing the US dollar! Check them out:
Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas Tulum PM
The new Monogram Canvas Tulum PM (available for $1240 at eLUXURY) is my favorite bag shape, the hobo, and has a cute front flap pocket with a twist lock closure and roomy interior with a top zipper. It’s named after a ‘beautiful’ Mayan city in Mexico and the bag is absolutely beautiful in person as well. The monogram canvas is softer than usual, while the natural cowhide leather strap is strong and sturdy.
Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas Saumur
The Monogram Canvas Saumur (available for $980 at eLUXURY) is just lovely! It may look like nothing special but in person it’s an haute saddle-style bag with two compartments separated by an adjustable shoulder strap and held together by side buckles. You have to see it in person to really get the full effect but trust me, it’s stunning!

Thomas Wylde Colossus Scorpion Bag

There’s something about certain clothes and accessories that just scream S-E-X! Like a slinky black dress or a pair of killer stilettos, or this bag. The Thomas Wylde Colossus Scorpion Bag, White is one hot, sexy bag. Thomas Wylde handbags are always distinctly edgy yet exude a certain femininity. The soft lambskin leather is distressed and has that aged look while still looking sharp and new. The antiqued gold metal hardware consists of a chunky chain strap with metal bars throughout and large pointed stud detail on the sides. The body of the bag is huge, measuring 20″x 15″x 4.5″, and is decorated with jewels and studs making up two large scorpions. All the celebs will be rockin this one this summer. This is one edgy, sexy, hardcore bag, not for the faint of heart or play-it-safe’rs!

Christian Louboutin Studded Leather Tote


Like many, I’m a huge fan of Christian Louboutin stiletto heels. The beauty of his shoes lies not only in the fabulous design, but also in that signature red sole. So when I saw this bag with the peek-a-boo red lining, I was immediately sold. It’s like having those coveted shoes, but in bag form! The Christian Louboutin Studded Leather Tote black leather bag is accented with gold hardware, including pyramid-shaped studs, two front zips (revealing the lining), and dangling stiletto zipper charms.


Best of all, it’s actually two bags in one. The long strap gives you the look and feel of a hobo, but drop the strap and the two top handles make it a large duffel. If you read What’s Haute, you know I have a love for convertible bags, and this one amazingly converts into two stylish bags, making it well worth the reasonable price tag of $1650, and even more reason to own one! Pre-order now at Neiman Marcus.
