Louis Vuitton African-inspired Spring/ Summer 2009 collection might be the most anticipated collection this season. We are talking about killer shoes and accessories but the bags? So far, i am not sky-highly impressed. The Kalahari in Monogram Canvas is the first piece to be released. The bag is fun but in a  not-very good way reminds me of Monogram Canvas knock-offs. So far, any limited Monogram Canvas collection has always sold-out and became highly sought after when the season is over but in times like this, will people still splurge on what i call “vanity” bags? The Monogram Canvas Kalahari comes in PM  (left) and GM (right) sizes and priced at USD2,260 and USD3,390 each. I look forward to seeing the leather version (the one featured in Madonna’s ad) in more details. That one could be more exciting.
