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!

What’s Haute is Off to Paris!

Ooh la la, I’m taking a much needed vacation to Paris and I can’t wait to see the Eiffel Tower! Oh, who am I kidding - I can’t wait to go shopping for bags and haute Parisian fashion! Paris is the second fashion capital of the world (you may disagree but hey, I’m a New Yorker so I’m biased!), so I can’t wait to see what’s in the stores so I can blow all my money on gorgeous French designer handbags, shoes and clothes and then come back to share my finds with all of you! What’s Haute will be away until next Tuesday but in the meantime you can enjoy the archives, catch up on Hauteness and What’s Haute Magazines and shop some haute bags!

Keith Richards - the New Face of Louis Vuitton? New Bag Alert!


Image Source

Apparently in an attempt to reach the rock-star, alcohol-soaked, grungy luxury-lover, Louis Vuitton has chosen Rolling Stone-r Keith Richards to model for its ‘Core Values’ campaign. Shot by Annie Leibovitz, the ad features a somber Richards with a guitar and LV luggage case with the tag line: “Some journeys cannot be put into words.” Um, yeah.

In other Louis Vuitton news, the line just launched a new and affordable(!) bag, the Monogram Canvas Montorgueil GM. The bag, inspired by “a lively pedestrian street in the center of Paris” is a rounded satchel with double handles, a top zip closure, and full of Louis Vuitton charm. I have been thinking about buying a Speedy but didn’t want to lug around a bag with short top handles, so the Montorgueil is a nice alternative. It’s roomy (16.5″x 9.4″x 7″) and luxe so therefore perfect!
