Hi, my name is Jean and I’m a Louis Vuitton addict. Ok, I admit it … I love Louis! It’s not necessarily an obsession, just love and respect. So, what is it about LV that I love so much? I think it’s the same reason I adore Godiva. Yes, there are better and fancier chocolates on the market, but it’s rich texture melts in my mouth and I’m hooked every time. LV represents luxury, sheer indulgence, and a reliable product. I have had some of my LV bags for over 20 years, and they are still going strong. The true test for whether its worth the money is how well it holds up. I’m hard on my bags, they have to be able to take the heat. They do. That’s why I’m true to Louis Vuitton, it’s a bag I can rely on. Oh yeah… and they’re pretty! Especially some of the new designs that have been popping up, like last year’s Manhattan bag designed by Marc Jacobs, and now the Etoile Collection. The price tag on the new collection is no joke, and in this economy most of us will have to admire from afar. That’s not going to stop me from putting it on my Christmas list … A Girl’s gotta dream! So ladies, what’s your addiction?

some LV’s to obsess admire:

      Right now I am like Jennifer Hudson's character in SATC. I dream of carrying an LV bag. Also like her character, I just got engaged after my hubby bought me a diamond ring from http://www.idonowidont.com so now I just need a carrie bradshaw to surprise me with my own Louise V bag!

      At first I didn't like the quilted Louis Vuitton bags because they are such a different look for the classic print bags, but the more I look the more I admire! After all, change is important to keep a design fresh, and I love how lux the quilting is.

      I agree with the quality of LV bags. Are there any designer bags that you have experience with that AREN'T worth the $$. For instance, I have a Kate Spade and don't feel like it holds up that well to daily use.

      Absolutely ! I have a Chloe bag that fell apart within a month. The strap literally popped off. It's absurd to pay that much money and have the bag fall apart. At least with LV you pay for quality – you know it will hold up.

      Sorry to be the nerd here, but that Manhattan bag designed by Marc Jacobs isn't part of Louis Vuitton collection… I know, it's confusing when he designs 3 different lines :)
      I love their non-traditional lines, my fav LV is http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_de…

      When it comes to Louis Vuitton, I am NEVER confused! I know exactly what the Manhattan bag designed by Marc Jacobs looks like, because I have one. The link was wrong and has been fixed.
