Louis Vuitton Alma Epi

I strongly believe that one of the reasons why Louis Vuitton remains the biggest luxury brand out there is its ability to constantly renew, re-market and improve their classic pieces. The iconic Alma bag has been re-invented in Vuitton’s iconic Epi leather and there are 13 choices of colors to choose from. Naturally I like the green (Menthe) best, followed by the Cyan, Figue (some kind of purplish blue) and yellow. Price of the Alma is EUR1,020.

Shoppe the Hermes HAC (Haut à Courroies)

The Hermes Birkin is regarded by many as THE ultimate bag but the fact that the Hermes Haut à Courroies (HAC) is indeed the original bag the Birkin was designed based on, is not a knowledge widely known by many. Looking almost exactly identical as the Birkin but with shorter handles and taller body, the HAC is nowadays more rarely spotted compared to the Birkin itself.

One of our good friends bought his HAC40 two years ago and is now thinking of letting it go to our readers at a bargain price. The bag is still in pristine condition with all corners very well taken care of. The HAC40 is indeed perfect as city bag for you who are blessed with certain heights (170cm and above) or as a weekender. With its iconic design and eye-catching yet timeless color Rouge Venetian, the bag is a classic, meant to be kept forever.

Shoppe the Celine Trapeze

Following the foot steps of the wildly successful Celine Box and Luggage is never an easy thing to do but Celine Trapeze did exactly just that and some more. The Trapeze has been the new bag we are obsessing over. Not only that the bag is as highly functional as the Luggage, it is as practical as the Celine Box and could be as elegant as the Hermes Kelly. Naturally the bag comes with a very long wait-list too but you are in luck because we happen to have one in Cruise 2012 orange waiting for be grabbed and loved.
