Magical March 2022 Purchases!

Technically this was a February purchase, however I just picked up my Coffret Tresor 24 yesterday. I combined Birthday and Mother's Day to purchase a piece that I have wanted for years now. Well actually I really wanted the Flower Trunk. Sadly, the price shot up to almost $7500 with the recent increase. I just could not justify the extra $2000. The next best thing was to send it to an LV artist for custom painting. I chose to go with peonies, and I think he did an amazing job. Pictures don't do it justice! I got the idea from another lovely TPF member who had purchased a trunk and placed flowers inside next to the Trunks book. I originally planned on putting flowers in the trunk but think I will just leave it as is. This will probably be my last LV purchase for the foreseeable future. I have more bags than I can rotate and it's time to give my wallet a well deserved break! Thank for letting me share!

Absolutely stunning! I love your trunk, and the peonies just finish it perfectly. What a stunning classic trunk from LV. Good for you for getting for yourself. And I’m with you, I have so many bags, I’m already slowed way down and will likely stop with LV for awhile. I think since the pandemic, buying our beauties helped, and gave us many beautiful choices, now it’s time (and hopefully remains time!) to go out and use them. Congratulations again!! :love: :love: :love:

Thank you so much! I agree I have so many beautiful choices! I now find that I just don't have as much joy as I used to looking at the new bags. It's great to feel content. :heart:

Been eyeing this handle soft trunk since early last week, my SA reserved one for me and only till today I had the chance to pop into boutique to try it. Too much things happened along the way since last week, glad I managed to go over.


What do you think ?
The leather is very sturdy and I like black hardware that go the overall look, so chic. Bought it and it will be delivered my home tomorrow. Will share close up tomorrow. My hands was full with my gym bag and another haul that I bought 2 weeks back and picked up today.

This is my 2nd item for month of March.
No more for now. :biggrin:


Here my bag arrived!
Thank you for letting me share my happiness here. ♡♡♡

Items that can be kept inside. All my essential items can go in except my mini umbrella as I am from tropical country where sudden rain is very common here.

Beautiful bag!!! I am so loving the men’s pieces these days more than many of the women’s lines. Though I view any bag for anyone as fine and genderless. And we can rock whatever we want!!! It really is a stunner and sound like it suits you to a T. Congratulations! :love:

Thank you :blush: , I been picking up few of men's collection since last year esp the keepall xs and these soft trunks. The only other bags I got from ladies is speedy 20 emp and lately the nano speedy. The leather on this soft trunk is interesting too. not like usual emp leather, much thicker and matte, which I do not have such under LV collection. Now I should be purse peace.

Congratulations @GAN on this stunning bag!!

Do you find the bag heavy even when empty? Is it about as heavy as the LVxNBA mono handle trunk from last year? I read here you also have it so thought you're the best person to ask for weight comparison :smile:

Nice collection, and the leather sounds wonderful. Purse peace! Wow, sometimes that seems a mythical place :P

:giggle: the taurillon leather used on this soft trunk is much thicker than usual emp embossed leather I seen so far, hence I will say it is slightly heavier than mono LVxNBA version even it is empty. It also means sturdy and likely to last me for many years to come and it is all matte black, hopefully will be timeless to use I hope. As this bag can hold like essential stuff, the overall weight should be okay. My SA told me this is seasonable design. The NBA mono or black version is no longer available in my country. I think the NBA black leather is priced higher than this but again that is due to the collaboration with NBA. Hope that helps.
