I was wondering how long it takes for the handles and accents on a Louis Vuitton bag to turn darker? Months? How about until they're the darkest-- and they can all be replaced, or just certain ones?

Thanks!
 
It depends on how much you use it and what conditions you use and store your bag in. Use it everyday, it will turn in two weeks (very slightly) and will continue on. Very gradual though. If it's hot where you are, it will turn faster. Light and heat speeds it up but you can't prevent it from happening.
