Alright so it takes at least one hour to get downtown from my house. LV closes at 6pm today so at 4:20pm today I went off the deep end and was like, "Ahhh! I need to get that LV!
". Typical me waiting until the last minute before I freak out. So I jumped into my car at 4:30 and rushed down to the bus station. Ofcourse I get stuck behind a new driver who is going 40km/hr in a 50km/hr zone. 
Anyways, I made the 4:47 bus and just made it onto the 5:00 seabus with one minute to spare. After the seabus I took a skytrain one stop and then ran up 3 sets of stairs/escalators. Rushed up the hill to LV and got there at 5:30pm.
When I got there my regular SA wasn't working so I just went to a random SA cuz I was in a rush. I asked to see the Damier Porte Valeurs Organizer and ofcourse she didn't know what that was. So I had to point it out in the Catalogue for her. She took me to the men's section where it was on display. I always thought this was a women's wallet. Is it really a men's wallet? I wonder why it was in the men's section. 
I think it may be unisex, but I still think its more of a women's wallet that a men's wallet. What do you all think?
Anyways, I asked her to take out two new ones so I picked the better of the 2!
And then when I was trying to put my cards in the slots, the SA asked if I could only put one card in it, because she was afraid that the cards would stretch out the leather. I told her I wanted to see how far the cards come up on each other so she was like, OK, you can put 2. Are most SAs like this? Because all the other SAs I've had don't say anything.
Also, in that men's section was that new maroon leather limited editon card holder and wallet I think. The one with the perforated "Louis Vuitton" on it. Anyone know what this line is called? The cardholder was $330 CAD. Very nice.
Hotel Vancouver also had both Mirage Speedys! I tried on the Bordeux (sp?) one. I liked the fact that it had alcatranta (sp?) lining. They also had Le Precieux on both colours.
Anyways, I had just bought my first Damier piece, the cles on August 23rd. I loved it so much, I was like Ahh, I need more! So now my Damier collection is complete. I like Damier the best in flat accessories because I think it looks sleek and sophistcated when its flat.
So here she is! My 2nd LV wallet and Damier piece and my very first long wallet ever! It cost $345 CAD.

BTW, anyone know where the date code is?
If I had missed that I would have had to wait 30 minutes for the next one!
And if its unisex is it more womens or more mens?
I've never used a long wallet before so I'll have to get used to it.
