In the murakami madness I’m over here being the most basic girl 😂
I tried to get my daughter something from the Murakami launch this morning and quickly gave up as the website was crashing.

But my very basic Neverfull arrived today and is my first bag purchase this year. I needed non monogram and a hint of pink 🩷

Love this DE/RB combo — so pretty, nothing basic about it :smile:. Congrats on this beautiful classic! On a side note, that Murakami madness is somewhat off putting to me. I would love to get a few accessories but have already wasted enough hours of my life :lol: trying to order. (Maybe I am just feeling old and cranky :lol: this week)
 
You're so welcome @Bumbles and really appreciate your kind feedback on my videos :heart:

I'm so happy to hear you like my new black MC TP with the gold chain too. I'm not sure if LV does one like this in the silver colour, but I might ask next time I'm in store. Can't wait to see what you end up getting and best of luck, my fingers are double crossed for you :heart:
Thanks @DrTootr hopefully I can get something too.

Yeah I think LV does do a silver chain, but to be honest the gold matches it perfectly. You wouldn’t even know the difference.

Thank you Minda, I know you like the pinks 🥰. It does look pretty together!
The murakami madness was crazy!! I was looking to add a couple pieces for my daughter but I also was feeling old and cranky this week 😂
I gave up after the first 2 tries at checking out and getting booted. I always preferred the cherry blossom ones anyways so maybe I’ll try that 🌸
So you also didn’t go back to get anything?

I tried to order the first day for hours (got stuff in my cart but then it said OOS as I proceeded to checkout! WTH?). Eased off today :lol:. Kinda over it. If I can get something small in the coming weeks, great. if not, on to the next thing.

Yep I think I have to agree @Bumbles the gold defin pops with the black mc monogram and tbh I don't mind mixing gold/silver most times, as especially on my black tp, it's only the zip tag that is the silver toned hardware and the zipper itself of course lol and I really hope you do too x

I haven't ordered anything from LV online in about over a year and a half but the CS who delivered my package STILL remembered me from when he delivered me my Kusama and some other pieces! 🥰

Anyway, I've been at purse peace for 18 months and counting & I recently aquired my perfect dream wallet so I've moved on to shoes and accessories. Decided on a black scarf 90 from the Murakami MC release. I saw the white version and for some reason it's almost transparent?? Almost like rice paper. Doesn't look like that in the stock photos.

I originally wanted the scarf 55 but it only came in white in my market and it was only in stock for about 2 mins when the collection launched online. That is a 50/50 mix of silk and cotton so I don't think it's transparent - can't confirm since I haven't seen it in person. The 90 is 100% silk so it's nice and soft and feels so luxurious. Haven't decided if I'll frame it as my original plan or wait until I have an opportunity to wear it.

Can’t believe I bought a monogram canvas bag with lots of vachetta. And I’m so looking forward to it tanning. I fell in love with Pharrell’s monogram pieces in the men’s line and realized what I really loved was the warm caramel of the tanned vachetta. This is how LV bags used to look when I was growing up in the 70s and 80s (yup, dating myself) and my mom was never worried about keeping them pristine. I’m so transported back and decided to treat myself to a Noe BB. I’m a big girl now and I know how to take care of vachetta.
And yeah I got a Murakami piece too. :)

I absolutely love this bag. My mom had the trocadero and she used it to death. My only complaint about this style is that I would scrape my hand and jewelry going in and out of the bag. But I was sorely tempted to order it. What are your thoughts and how do you like it? Can you post some mod shots?
