Here is a pic of the new denim Cosmetic GM. If you purchased please feel free to express your thoughts on it along with pictures. Is it too flimsy it being denim? I'm loving the vachetta, studs, size and denim combo!

Hi! Well I was reaching wanting to hear what people thought about the denim Cosmetic GM too while I waited for mine. I have it now and I can say I love it! I do not use it as a toiletry tho. I DO think it's too expensive as a toiletry due to the materials used. Frankly it would not serve as a good toiletry for me due to all the vachetta and that the interior is not lined with a waterproof lining. My reason for purchasing was to convert it to a bag. For the price, as a bag, it's a great deal. The accessories to convert it was minimal. The size is perfect for me. I love the vachetta and the studs and the denim is just really cool. I know many people frown on those that convert their items to bags. I don't understand why. Lol. I got the vachetta strap and the felicie style chain from AiMere Luxury and the gold 2in round O rings from Amazon. I own other straps and accessories that will work nice too but I'm just loving this skinny vachetta strap that I got from Aimere. Aimere Luxury does have an encasement for the GM monogram canvas version but it's in the DE leather. There is supposedly a vachetta version that is coming out that will look great on the denim (and the monogram). When that is available I will be picking up that as well. :) Here are a few pics.

it looks fantastic! you did a great job. When I first saw the pouch online I thought about doing a strap hack because I love the denim and the bags are so expensive. So glad to see yours. I did a strap hack on the LV xYK pumpkin pouch to save money, but ended up purchasing a bag too! but glad I have the pouch too. Please can you take a pic of the bottom of the bag. Ive been wondering how it looks.

Hi there! Thank you so much! I can't take the credit for the GM hack as I got the idea from youtuber LuxedwithRo. She did it on her monogram canvas GM version and that actually caused me to go to LV a year ago and buy the monogram canvas GM as well and I love it in canvas too! When I saw they made the GM in denim I decided to do the same thing! Lol. I actually like the denim more due to the vachetta and the studs and also the zipper pulls are nicer on the denim. I wish they had the vachetta bottom on the monogram version too!

I would love to see your hack of the LV x YK hack! Please share! :)

Ok ill take a pic of the bottom of my vachetta! It's so nice! I Apple Garde the heck out of it! Haha!

Gosh I love it! It looks really cool! I wasn't into the LV x YK when it was first released; however just a few months ago it has finally started to grow on me! What took me so long? Lol. Now I want one! Smh. It's good that you got yours as in the resale market it will be more expensive. It looks cute as a little bag. I saw that Aimere Luxury has an encasement made just for that cosmetic pouch! Seriously I am not part of the marketing team but I just want to share as I think it's the cat's meow! :) I love all the items there! Here is a pic of it on a monogram version.

Thank you so much for your kind words! :) I must say it was money well spent as I made a bag out of it! Lol. I got the idea from youtuber LuxedwithRo. She did it on her monogram canvas GM. She is the genius! :)

The Aimere Luxury encasement is great for the cosmetic pouch! because the way I hacked it, it can flip since the strap attachment point is too low.
