Thanks for the pics, Clanalois! I love the Brentwood. Too bad I just made a vow not to buy LV vernis because they yellow!

I have to check the dimensions again. I really thought the Houston would be bigger. I still like the straps of the Houston better although the Brentwood is very nice!

i like the vernis wallets very much especially the smooth-shinning surface .......are these Vernis scratchable ?

I could be wrong, since my vernis pieces are very new. They are more prone to color transfers than scratches. Certain pieces (particularly darker color pieces) hold up beautifully years after purchase.

I purchased the white vernis Brentwood in Saks 5th Avenue yesterday it is beautiful! My husband went with me to Gucci, Luis Vuitton and then Saks. He started this trip saying I had a limit of $500.00 would that be enough to get what I wanted? After taking him to Gucci and then going to Saks he was encourgaging me to purchase the Vernis White Brentwood for $1280. (but you have Sales Tax in NYC which adds about 100 more). The purse is quite stunning, as white is big this year, I looked at a great many purses, I already have a blue houston vernis purchased in 2001. I think the vernis really holds up. The leather sheen they use to produce the glossy effect keeps the bag protected, in my opinion. My four year vernis has very little wear, although I keep in stored in a dust bag in my dark closet and I don't use it that often. The new Vernis does not have a leather interior as my older blue houston did, minimal leather on the exterior and no feet. I have to assume that if I use this new White Vernis a great deal this spring summer it will show quite a bit of wear but whats the point of keeping it in a dust bag? I have a monogram tote I use everyday and its beat up and I love it.

I am a new member and I have purchased Gucci, Prada and Vuiton bags, our of these, the prada held up the worse, the gucci bag was a close second to the Vuitton, but Vuitton works out best for me, I am very very hard on my handbags, and for someone who will beat up a bag, these are the best value for the money.

I like the Minna Street as I don't have many small bags.
The SA at my nearest store is trying to get one in but it is not that easy to find LV styles in this state.:cry:

 

[MissV]

can someone tell me how "often" color gets transfers to the vernis leather??and is there anyway to prevent it or fix it?

The Minna Street is listed as $50 Euros less than the Malibu, so I'm going to assume that the Malibu is approx $890-900CDN as the Minna Street in Canada is $840. I LOVE the Minna Street, hopefully it will be mine by then end of the month when I have time to make the drive to get it!

So finally the Malibu street is in. I waited for ages for it to come out and finally could not wait any longer and got a lex instead. I tried the Minna street on though and the strap is soooo long even when adjusted to the shortest hole.

BTW - the Malibu is $850 CAD

Does anyone know the price of the minna in US?
TIA!

I keep checking for the Minna on elux! Sadly it has not shown up yet. You could always just call the vuitton number and ask. I have to decide which color I want...framboise or noisette...i really like the perle, but b/c its an across the body style, I am afraid of the color transfer.
