Why do you continue to buy Louis Vuitton?

[IWICBTAll!]

I like what I like. Sometimes I wish I didn't and I'm sure my wallet wishes I didn't. I keep telling myself, "ok, no more - that's enough" and then I'll see something else I want. I have slowed down on purchases a little bit and I've sold items. What can I say, LV monogram has always been my favorite. I don't care what other people think about LV.

I have been close to buy a Ysl bag, but at the end not worth for me, I always come back to Vuitton. Maybe I'll change my mind in the future.

I was actually between a YSL bag and a Celine bag before ultimately buying another Louis Vuitton, most recently. Well. Guess I'm a LV girl at heart

I own all luxury brands but LV repair service surpass all others. They stand behind their brand like none. Its a lifetime investment IMO.

Yes, yes, yes! I forgot this one. They changed the zip of my 30 years old keepall, quite unusual and impressive.

I love LV and always love them..I have some other brand but still ended up using them and buying more..My daughter an husband kept saying buy other brand instead always LV..They r so classic and of course long lifetime investment...Not tiring up to buy more LV..

Unlike most I've only started 4 years ago. I look back with fond memories. I love LV because of resilience in both materials and the timeless style(some).

However... this may be an unpopular opinion.. But I think they're getting quiet greedy. Canvas pieces nearing 3000, leather pieces with small capacities at a same price range, churning out designs and seasons like fast fashion, cutting out quality materials, most of pieces getting hard to acquire(for various reasons), price increase during covid etc.

Will I still buy LV? Absolutely. But I'm steering more towards collecting vintages at the moment. I love their designs and how they stand against time. And there is always a thrill of finding something new in something old.

Funny you mention this. I just bought my first YSL and eyeing up on a Celine!

I buy the LV bags I like along with the bags I like from other fashion houses. I couldn’t care less about what another person does or doesn’t think about my bags.

I have loved it for over 20 years and don’t see this relationship ending any time soon! I don’t care how many people have it or who thinks mine or fake or whatever. I love it and it makes me happy. That’s what matters.

What did you decide? I loved the Loulou Puffer and Jamie but was afraid they would be too trendy

My First YSL Purchase!

Hello! I'm so excited to share my first YSL! I chose medium envelope woc in silver hardware. Leather was amazing quality when I first touched it in the store. I love how multiple way of wearing this piece rivals to that of LV. I know there are few concerns on wear-and-tare, but I'm hoping...

I got the YSL woc in large size. I chose silver hardware to "modernize" the style and I think this way I can both dress up or dress down. I was shopping for felicie(friend's insistence) but the capacity was just so so so small. Plus my whole argument for beyond reasonable price point applies to felicie. The cost was more reasonable and tolerable 2 increases ago for both empreinte and canvas in my opinion.

I think Jamie has a potential to be timeless but puffer is a definite trend piece. You should look for sales or bargains for YSL and never pay full price! But I love how squishy puffer looks!

I just love LV...no other reason. The quality, the longevity, the beauty...imo, LV makes the best cross body bags and I love that I can dress them up/down. Now if only I could get my hands on the nano-speedy, I would feel so whole inside...

Great question! I have just always loved LV and I think monogram is so beautiful. I bought some DE and I sold most of it because monogram is my favorite, and I love the black trim monogram bags as an alternative to DE. The fakes are super annoying to see, especially the franken-bags (designs that LV never made).

I had a guy on the street ask me out of the blue "is it real" and I was like huh? I had no clue what he was talking about as I don't really think about my bags when I carry them. It wasn't until I passed him that I realized he was asking about my bag!

But I honestly don't care that some people might think my bag is fake, I know it's real, and it means I won't be targeted for theft anymore than someone else.

LV canvas is super lightweight, the styles are luxe and enjoyable to use are extremely durable. I have beautiful full leather bags in my collection that I love but they aren't as carefree, especially for a mom of 2 young kids.
