Louis Vuitton Summer 2013 - Monogram Vernis Floral Ikat

The time has come for me to show you my favourite part of the Louis Vuitton Summer Collection, in the previous posts I have mentioned the fabulous floral Ikat lining and in yesterday's shoe post you saw the Vernis Floral shoes that will be released, well the same floral Ikat print will also be used on a range of small leather goods and a brand new bag too.

Catalina is the new bag to celebrate the floral print and will be released in two sizes, although it is new both sizes are reminiscent of previously sold and now discontinued Louis Vuitton models, the larger Catalina NS resembles the Sac Plat all be it a little wider and it will be available in the two pink versions of the print; Rose Indien and Rose Velours. Catalina NS will retail for ￡1585 approximately.

Catalina BB resembles the former Vernis Reade model but I believe a little bit smaller, this model will be sold in Grand Bleu and Rose Velours and is expected to retail in the region of ￡910.? Unfortunately the colours listed above are currently the only options available so if you'd prefer say the Catalina BB in Rose Indien I'm afraid that isn't possible, however there is another bag that will be available in all three colour options.

The Monogram Vernis Pochette in Floral Ikat will be released in all three colour ways this is the newer model of the pochette featuring wider sides and a longer more practical strap it is expected to retail for ￡685.

In the small leather goods side of the collection there are three confirmed options, the ever popular Zippy Wallet, the Sarah Wallet and the Cosmetics Pouch.

The Sarah (shown at the top of the post) and the Cosmetics Pouch will be available in all three colours, approximate retail is ￡550 and ￡335 respectively. The Zippy Wallet (￡640) will be available in Grand Bleu and Rose Indien only, there is a rumour of the Coin Zippy also being released in this collection but availability or colour options are unconfirmed.

Now you've seen the both Monogram Neverfull's with the Floral lining and the Monogram Vernis Ikat bags do you have a favourite?

Louis Vuitton Ailleurs Summer 2011

I think beach must be the most favorite place that many people would love to go in summer. Since staying home or somewhere outside is still too hot to breathe, staying in water will be the most natural and comfortable way to cool down. Ailleurs, somewhere else, you might have a dream place to go in hot summer. Where will it be? Well, who knows? But what I know is that Louis Vuitton will take us somewhere in this summer. Louis Vuitton Ailleurs Summer 2011, a collection full of exotic sensations and amazing feelings, presents us what elegance is.

Ailleurs Cabas is available in three versions: Aventure, Escale and Promenade. All of them feature the same size and design but different prints which respectively present us the different scenes of the place. Though they come in different prints, these colorful totes capture the dazzling spirit and evoke all the glamour of effortless summer style. In structure, these bags come with the double handles and protective bottom studs. In function, they all feature an interior zipped pocket, while golden brass hardware and Louis Vuitton inventeur plate add a glamorous and luxurious touch to the bags.
