For the LV lovers, the Louis Vuitton Neo Papillon GM is perfect for fall

Around here, we often talk about getting away from monogram bags and going for something for refined and less flashy. While some vehemently oppose monograms on their accessories, others embrace it; for that reason, it makes me happy to see such a wide variety of designs being offered from the different houses. Louis Vuitton is a household name and well known for their monogram and non-monogram bags alike, and I love it when they offer a taste of both.
Welcome the Louis Vuitton Neo Papillon GM to your screen. This bag is from the pre-fall collection and is a twist on a Louis Vuitton classic, adding a more sophisticated touch with the Monogram Revelation, which is a debossed calf leather.

This bag is truly gorgeous and perfect for the Louis Vuitton lover. It is still an iconic LV shape, the coveted Papillon, but the Monogram Revelation gives this bag new life. The use of sturdy yet sumptuous calf leather offers beautifully curved sides, and the inside of the bag is just as luxurious as the outside. Soft black microfiber lines the interior and there is a lambskin pocket as well. The other aspect I adore is the extra long double top handles and optional shoulder strap, which gives this luxurious bag a sporty finish as well. If you love Louis Vuitton and like the classic Monogram but don’t want it overly in-your-face, this is the bag for you. Via Louis Vuitton for $3,950.

NEW LV HANDBAGS

As you might have noticed, Megs and I are absolutely spring-obsessed lately. Not only did the season just officially begin yesterday, but the weather in New York has been so sunny and perfect, so archetypically spring-like, that it’s hard to think about anything else when the windows are open and a gentle breeze is teasing us every few minutes. To be inside working is positively unfair on days like the ones that we’ve been having, but such is life, I guess. We all have to make rent. Right now, though, I’m considering skipping April’s payment, getting myself evicted and living in Central Park for the next two months. Naturally, I’d put that rent check toward the Louis Vuitton Sophia Coppola Bag PM in this amazing shade of turquoise. Who needs a roof over your head when you’ve got perfect weather and a perfect bag? I’m probably going to need my apartment back come June, though. Air conditioning is important to me. I’ve always loved the Sofia Coppola bags because of their excellent leather and subtle design, but I had previously thought of them as more of an option for fall. (Or an option for people who carry black bags no matter the season. A lot of you live in New York.) I had completely overlooked this amazing color, right along with the gorgeous coral below. Either of these options is obviously perfect for spring and summer, and the convenient shoulder strap gives a note of casualness to a shape that can otherwise look a bit businesslike. I bet I’m not the only person doing handbag math right now. Buy through Louis Vuitton for $3950.（www.handbagicon.us）
