[sweetneet]

ok, just thought i'd put an updated pic of my vernis collection.

here are my 3 vernis bags: Rosewood Ave (amarante), Houston (pomme d'amour), Reade PM (indigo), along with matching accessories (Cles, Ludlow, and 4-Key Holder).


And here is my lone Violette (Pochette Cles):

sweetneet YOU and your collection are adorable! Love all the little accessories. Isn't it funny how even the littlest things bring us such happiness?

And your pics are terrific! You claim not to be a good photographer but I don't believe it (and you probably have a great camera!)

[sweetneet]

^awww, thanks!! and yeah, it is funny how I can get so excited over "just a little purse," as my DH says. he says whenever I go into LV boutique, i look like a little kid in a candy shop.

and as for my camera, i just have a Canon SD1000 (7.1 MP) i bought from amazon for $169 or so, nothing fancy. i just take a TON of pictures (different angles, settings etc) and just pick the best one. so for every picture i post, i probably have ten of the same thing, but different angle, setting, etc. I'm glad I have a 500 GB external hard drive.....

ok, so we went to Ikea last weekend to get another shelf for my expanding bag collection... and DH finished putting it together for me today, and I got to move my new stuff in!

So here are pics of my shelves displaying my purse/accessory collection, as it usually looks (most everything in dustbags).


Here are the shelves with most of the dustbags taken off. Only right two shelves are purses/accessories, the left one is mostly keepsakes and jewelry (though the left topshelf has my catalogues and books on purses.)


below is a close-up of the right shelves, with the doors open.
1st shelf (top to bottom):
*random non-designer purses (incl Hello Kitty cell holder)
*LV vernis accessories, pochettes, keyring
*more LV accessories, Miroir cosmetic case
*LV vernis Houston inPomme d'Amour
*LV vernis Rosewood Ave in Amarante
*LV vernis Reade PM in Indigo

2nd shelf (top to bottom):
*Maxx New York small bowler in Red
*Coach/Juicy/Michael Kors accessories, sunglasses (Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana)
*Coach Soho flap in Black
*Coach Lunch Tote in Pear
*Coach small Soho flap in Mahogany
*Michael Kors Chestertown patent Hobo in White

here is a close up of my LV accesories/small purses. Each box is labeled with a picture, showing what's inside. Makes for easy access!

great collection

[sweetneet]

^thank you!

So I guess I'll post some pics of my updated collection, while I'm at it. First off, my MURAKAMI items!

First is my Cherry Blossom pochette in Red/Creme. I it!! Bought it on eBay, from thehuangfamily.


Next is my Cerises pochette. I got this on eBay too, for like $285. Awesome deal! This bag is great for just quick trips to the grocery store.


And then there is my Cerises agenda. I use this every day. I love it. I got this for a good deal too, only $350! Inside I have the Japanese Hello Kitty inserts! So cute.


And last there is my LV Hands coin purse (rond) from MOCA. I use this often too. It's nice as a bag charm, or just for holding coins. At first the LV Hands design kinda creeped me out a bit, but it totally grew on me. I love the bright colors!!


And this isn't LV, but here is a pic of all my Murakami stuff from MOCA! The stickers are way too cute.

and next, my VERNIS items!! everyone knows i'm a vernis addict.

first is my Rosewood Avenue, in Amarante (with matching cles). This was by very first LV bag. I got her on Rodeo Drive on Sept 22 (i even remember the date, lol). At first DH balked at the idea of spending $900 on a bag, but he saw how much I wanted it, and he said I could have it as our wedding gift (we got married in October). I thought this would be all the LV i would ever need, but it just opened the gates to further addiction!


and here is my Houston in Pomme d'Amour (shown with Sweet Flower Bandeau, in Rouge)! This is my most expensive bag. Got it for xmas last year. Worth every penny though, as I use it a lot. It's a great work bag. It's gorgeous. If any of bags is a head-turner, this one is. I the color!!


and my 3rd vernis bag, is my Reade PM in Indigo. I got it used but it GREAT condition, and for a very good deal ($429 shipped!) Thank you, Let-Trade! I LOVE the color on this bag. It's almost purple in some lights. Very pretty!!


And then here is a picture of my vernis accessories. Pomme Ludlow, Amarante Cles, Violette Pochette Cles, and Indigo 4-Key Holder. Love all the pretty colors!!

[sweetneet]

ok, that's most of my LV, now there's just the MIROIR left. I only have one miroir item, the Cosmetic Case in Silver. I LOVE IT! I still actually haven't used it yet , as an electrical engineer who's married and almost 30, i don't really have the "clutch lifestyle", lol. However, it's soo pretty!! I have a wedding to go to in a few months, hopefully I can use her then!


and last week when I was at Century City, I bought a Juicy Couture chain for $26 (sale price, from $88 original price!), and attached it to my purse. It can be used as a wristlet, as in this picture..


or as a "handle", as in this picture. This way is my fave, and the way I will probably use it. I love Juicy!

[sweetneet]

oh and I guess I should put something for my random LV accesories...

Multicolore Fleurs Keyring. I wanted this for soo long, but i was sold out. Then when vuitton.com launched its online sales, I saw that it had these in stock! I jumped at the chance and ordered it. I love it!! The colors are so pretty!!


Sweet Flower Bandeau. I wanted this for so long too, but also was sold out for a long time. However, one day I happened to see one at the Hollywood & Highland boutique. It was their last one! I jumped at the chance and bought it. It was also cool because my mom gave me the $$ to buy it (was her xmas present to me!)


oh and this is just a random pics of my LV bags. Happiness comes in all shapes & sizes!!

[sweetneet]

ok, so that's all my LV, now onto my COACH collection!

First is my Soho medium flap in Black, here shown with matching wallet! I it!! Very versatile bag. Holds a lot. I got this for a great price too...$143 at the Camarillo outlet store. Retails for $328, so that's a lotta savings!!


And here is my Lunch tote, in Pear (shown with matching card case). I got the bag at the Cabazon outlet, for $199. This is a great tote to use for work. And I love the color, so vibrant!!


And here is my Soho small flap, in Mahogany. This is sooo cute. This was a steal too, for $93 at the Las Vegas outlets. Yay for purses under $100 (i need something cheap to offset my LV's, lol). I got a matching mahogany mini skinny with this too (see last pic).


Here is my classic signature scarf, in pink. I love the color, looks great on my pear lunch tote!!


And here are all my various Coach accessories...all purchased at outlets. Red wristlet, Pear card case holder, Mahogany mini skinny, Black mini Soho wallet, and valet keyring. Come to think of it, I bought ALL my Coach items at outlets! The sales are too good to resist!

[sweetneet]

and here is my tiny MICHAEL KORS collection....Chestertown patent hobo, in white! Got this online from NM. Later I got a matching coin purse at the outlets in San Marcos, TX. The charms are from Claire's...i think they were 50 cents!



and here is my MAXX NEW YORK collection. It's not really patent leather, it's PVC, but I love it all the same. It's still shiny!! On the left is the Small Bowler in Red, that I bought for QVC, for $65 (on sale!). It is soo cute and holds A LOT. On the right is the Age-Defying Large Tote in black. I got this from amazon.com, but I know they sell it at Bloomies, too. This bag is my biggest bag. It is GREAT for travel, and also for taking to work.

[sweetneet]

and lastly, here are miscellaneous accessories

my sunnies! Chanel (black) and D&G (white). Use them all the time!


Juicy Couture gold heart...Valentine's pressie from my DH!
