I visited the fantastic freestanding Louis Vuitton store in Chevy Chase, Maryland this afternoon and a great SA authenticated my new baby for me - a black Epi Jasmin! (I won't post photos because you've all seen this bag and besides, my camera is crappy.) The SA was so impressed by my knowledge of LV that she even offered me a job! If only I could make the hour-long commute on a part-time basis...
Anyway, this Jasmin was one of the gargantuan steals to be found on eBay every once in a blue moon - I paid a measly $414.00 for it with S&H and it's in mint condition.
Oh and by the way, for you NBA followers - LEBRON JAMES WAS IN THE BOUTIQUE AT THE SAME TIME THAT I WAS!!! For those who don't know who he is, he plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers and is one of the top 5 standout players in the league right now. People are calling him the next Michael Jordan! Anyway, ordinarily chatterbox me didn't do anything other than make eye contact with him (which he returned) and smile because the store environment was so subdued I was embarassed at the thought of throwing myself at his feet and asking for an autograph. But I kicked myself all the way home for at least not walking up to him and saying hello!!! :cry:
