^^ me three but i still like LV bags

 

[Kimkhuu]

Not a fan of ANY Lv bag......

 

[birkinbuddy]

Trianon Canvas Sac de Nuit is beautiful but not very practical when shopping...hard to zip and unzip with only one hand. Should be designed like the L'ingenieux...just my opinion

 

[TheSweetest]

The Suhali and Exotic collections are my absolute faves. I am content to know that I will own the pieces I desire one day.

Le Extravagant and Le Talentueux shown above​

The Sweetest >> when did the Exotic collection come out? I've never seen that line before but I'm liking what I see.

i believe they've discontinued the plum Suhali when geranium came out this year. but you might still find a few plum coloured pieces floating about. the Cuir Exotiques first appeard in the 2003 "Le Catalogue" if im not mistaken. not all boutiques carry them.

thanks kkesh! woah I'm 2 yrs behind on my LV knowledge but then that could be because it's such a discreet line... this was the only place I've seen people talk about it. thanks again!

Can someone help me find

a work bag? I would need something that would fit regular purse items, wallet, checkbook, cell phone, etc but then something where I could put files into as well and books (not heavy or big books though). Also, something that might endure weather as well because I will start taking the train to and from work, which means I will walk to the train and I would like a bag that will not be ruined if it happens to rain or snow.

You might want to check out Chanel's large tote from their permanent luggage line (A15991Y03). I use mine for my work/school/travel - I love it. Big, lightweight, classic, waterproof (always a plus), and inexpensive so you won't feel bad if you abuse it (like I do)

Thanks

Do I just check out their website?

Unfortunately it isn't on their website so you'll have to check your local boutique or give them a call directly.

I dont know but personally its seems like more of a balenciaga bag that suits your situation

But i dont know how well balenciaga goes with harsh condition...anyone knows?

I would like to see it in person and I am prety sure there arent any Chanel boutiques around here. Do you have a picture? I will keep looking and thanks for your help.

$325 DKNY

$1100 Tods

MJ $975

celine $1150

i like the dkny because its really cheap compared to all the other bags..
its only $325 and that means you can abuse it through rain or snow without worrying about the bag getting destroyed..

 

[illini3]

Thank you so very much, I will check them out. Thanks again.

Bag for Fall?

Hey everyone,

I'm new to the site and in need of an opinion. I want to get a new bag for fall, but I want to stay away from the "it" bag. Too many knockoffs of bags like the Chloe Paddington, fendi spy, and Balenciaga make me sick and I dont want people to assume my bag is fake because 80% of them are. I love the real ones, but the chloe and fendi spy are practically impossible to get. I know I'm going to eventually get the Balenciaga even tho it's an "it" bag right now. I just love it, but I was also looking at the Botkier Trigger Luxe for right now. What does everyone think of Botkier? I like the clyde also but Im going to use it as a day bag to hold everything I need it for a day on campus at school. If not the Botkier, what would be a good bag for me to use for school in the $600-700 price range?

I know some of you are gonna say wait for the balenciaga if i'm willing to spend that much, but I wouldn't mind having both and using one as an everyday bag and the other ( obviously the balenciaga) for more special occasions.

Help! ( sorry for the long post, but I'm getting so frustrated on what bag to get!)

 

[PrincessImp.]

I dun really like Botkier bags..not really my cup of tea

How about the Claudia from Kooba or an Andrea Bruckener bag? These fall within your range too

IT all depends on what you look like, a tote maybe if your tall, and a small pipe shaped purse if your short, my mom's 5' 1" and it goes so well with everything a small black bag works for everything

and it should be about what it looks like, alot of people like a bag cause everybody else does, like the fendi spy, nice build ugly turtle fabric is what i think of it.
