The Lovely Michelle 🧡 Yes there’s LEVELS to Louis Vuitton...as a young man when I was (21) my first LV purchase : Damier Wallet, age (23) my next 3 purchases Shoes 650$( black monogram sneaker , the iconic brown monogram sneaker , and Damier Azur sneaker ) by age 30 I started buying multiple Sunglasses (850$) , fast forward to age (35) i dipped into “ready wear” LV (few button up’s , few T-shirts ) purchased my first Chelsea Boots , Nil Messenger & Keepall....when I felt comfortable enough that I had my priority straight (ie nice amount of money in my savings✔️ , credit score on point ✔️ & bills taken care of ✔️ when I knew the time was right to finally make that splashy LV purchase! you definitely get that first time buyers guilt , but i made sure that it was something I truly loved (The Nigo x LV collab) also like you mentioned in previous videos before it’s something that you’ll keep in your family to pass on for generations to come! well any who that’s my story 😎 🧡 your videos as always 🤙🏾
Thank you so much for sharing! I like how you purchase in levels! Sounds like you have a sensible collection and sound advice on not getting into credit card debt when buying luxury! Once you start, it’s hard to stop though, right?!? Congratulations on the Nigo piece! As always, I appreciate your support on my channel! 💕💕 You’re hella cool 😎
Thanks for making this video on men items for Louis Vuitton. Amazing 😉 and awesome 😎. Love 💗 it. First time watching your channel. Which is best messenger bag you would recommend for men? What are your thoughts on the brand Bally Switzerland 🇨🇭 on there leather items. Also do you like Coach New York leather items? Bye
Awww... great recommendations, Michelle!😍 My dad would be tickled if I got him any of these. Although I do remember that he went with me to the LV boutique for my first LV bag. He was enamored by a jacket. He came up to me saying, "Look at this great jacket. If it's only 200 bucks I'm getting it." He hadn't looked at the tag yet and when he flipped it over it was over a thousand, maybe nearly two! Got the shock of his life! :))) I should maybe save up and get him an LV jacket one Father's Day some years from now. Lemme first start with a wallet haha! Thank you for the video, lovely! Have a great week!
I recommend a Suit Bag (if you wear suits or sport jackets which most do not wear these days). You can use it as your carry-on when flying and do not need to check it in. It's easy to carry.
That is a great recommendation for men, unfortunately people do not make the effort to dress well anymore! Thank you for your comments on my videos! 😄💕
Just got one of them LV Avenue sling bags in the original black colourway Michelle! Your spot on with your video about the black Damier not being in your face and too loud! Take care and keep up the good work.
Wow, great recommendations!♡ here in South Korea people don't use wallets unfortunately...haha, because they all use smartphone for payment. I wanted to buy LV wallet for husband as a present but he refused it :( I adore LV wallets and have one♡ thank you again for your videos!:)
This is a nice video topic Michelle! ‘Drug dealer belt!?’ 😂😂😂😂. I offered a LV belt and wallet for my husband for Father’s Day gift, but he says he loves his $25 wallet and belt from Marshall’s. he’s proud of his value fashion items!🤣🤣🤣
Haha women definitely need to check the bags and try it on in front of the mirror (I’m guilty 😊). Michelle if I need a dose of laughter and good vibes all I need to do is watch your videos. I’m looking for a Keepall Bandouliere 45 and the Discovery backpack . I was going to purchase the Avenue Sling bag in Damier Graphite but it’s sold out online 😩. The LV perfume is on my wishlist but I need to use my stash but I love oud perfume. As always great video Michelle have a wonderful weekend and take care 💕💕💕
Thank you Mary, you are so sweet 💕❤️ If you like Oud, you might like the one I have, Les Sables Rose. The oud scent is subtle, yet intoxicating!! We do need to try bags in the mirror though, I didn’t even go through the poses women do when purchasing a wallet! 😆 Have a great weekend sweet Mary 💕❤️
Wow. Very informative. I’m new to LV and your guidance was excellent. There should be more information on the mens side of LV. Especially from a woman’s perspective. I plan on doing the Speedy for my wife and Keepall for my self. Then add smaller items like belt and wallet. Thanks again. And don’t forget about the men…👍🏾
Thank you for showing those items. My first item was a Pocket Organizer (monogram) and then a Key Pouch (also monogram). LOVE them both. I have to admit I have two fragrances and want two more (have California Dream and Cactus Garden. Want Nouveau Monde and Afternoon Swim)
After years of buying Gucci I decided I wanted to try LV, went to the store wanting to buy the keepall 55 damier graphite. Im on the slimmer slide but even at 5´11 it looked huuuge!! I might try the Avenue in the future though. Thanks for the video!
@@dialmstyle I just got the Avenue sling bag and absolutely love it!! I am struggling to undertand how to adjust the strap though? Could you please explain
I found your comment about the dealer belt and keep-all bag being carried on a Southwest or United flight particularly interesting. I once bought a high end, all leather duffel bag from Eddie Bauer (I too used to work in retail and in particular Eddie Bauer) and every time I would carry it on an international flight, the TSA would always "randomly" pull me over to dust my bag for drugs. Needless to say, after about the fourth or fifth flight, I stopped taking it with me. "Flexing" can really be a nuisance! LOL!
Having more different bags will give you different choices, or feelings. I used to think bags with full leather inside and outside were high-end, but now I think bags lined with cloth are better because they are lighter. *condup*
Thank you so much for speaking on this topic!! I was looking to purchase my husband an LV backpack (specifically the Michael backpack). Do you have an opinion on this bag?
Hi Michelle, Wonderful video! You are so knowledgeable! Thank you for explaining why each gift suggestion would work for a particular person. Beautiful and useful choices. You are gorgeous. Thank you for a very informative and interesting video ❤️
Even if you buy or sell Charis within 6 months, it’s no one else’s business. You should be able to do whatever you want without having to defend yourself. This doesn't hurt anyone *condup*
I just got my first LV men bag and I went with the Avenue because I wanted an every day use. It’s not to big nor small for my items. I was going for the discovery but it made me think I would not be using this every day. Going back tomorrow for a wallet to match my bag.
Great video! Loved seeing your recommendations from the men’s collection. I actually gravitate towards unisex items. Your hair looks pretty today. Hope you are having a good week! ♥️
Thanks you for this information. I went to pick up my vintage repair and warned the lady in line that the keepall 55 with the strap is too heavy to walk around the airport. My hunter bag is too heavy to tote around the airport. It’s for short road trips. I have a vintage 50 with no straps. It’s for short trips only. It gets heavy.
Hi Michelle. I want to surprise my hubby with a slender wallet. I just can’t decide whether to pick the classic Damien or the Mono. I personally like the Mono but I fear he might find it a little “girly”. I am stressing because I want to have it hot stamped too and I know I won’t be able to return the item 😬. Thank you!
Hello! I’m a fan and a new sub, and I have a question, what’s your opinion on cowhide wallets from LV? I used to have the monogram canvas but recently I purchased the multiple wallet in cowhide leather but now I am not sure if I want to keep it. I want to hear from you if I should, my issue with it is that there’s some kind of glue or adhesive thats peeling off of the leather. It’s a 800$ wallet and I wanna make sure that it’s worth it and a good investment and that it will last me a lifetime. Hope to hear back from you. I would appreciate it a lot
Interesting video. I have most of the products you mentioned except the backpack and the belts. Tbh I’ve only ever seen teenagers wearing the backpacks and they look pretty tacky in most cases. I actually really like the travel collection. I have 2 pieces (Keepall 55 and the Carryall) and will probably buy a suitcase to complete it. After that I think I will have reached my “happy place” in terms of LV products I need to have although I’m always up for recommendations 😄
Drug dealer belt 😂😂 Great suggestions! I especially love that fanny…err sling bags are back! My newest bag is a fanny sling and I love it. So practical for this crazy dog mom. 😂
I‘ve been thinking about gifting my husband a LV wallet multiple times (because I love the brand so much) - but he‘s not into luxury and most probably would be rather angry, because of the money I spent, than happy about the gift 😆. I love your video anyways 💕 I love the men‘s graphit items - got myself the key-cley and would wish they would offer some womens pieces in the black-grey canvas aswell, seems so modern and cool! I would go crazy for a graphite Neverfull oder Speedy B 😍
That’s actually quite common I hear the husband does not want the LV wallet! More for you! Now that they have the Keepall XS, which is a speedy, maybe you’ll see a graphite speedy!! Thanks Mari! 💕❤️💕
I've seen men using the speedy bags is is true that it was once sold as a doctor bag? i don't like Louis vuitton, but, if i had to use that it would be the speedy 40 which i believe is discontinued and only as a travel bag not as an every day bag. I am a messenger bag kind of guy.
I am on the hunt for a keepall. I‘m 5ft9, so I think a 45-50 may work for me, but may I ask you which leather should I be looking at with these? I like to look of the epi leather but I see many of the keepalls in epi leather are „broken“. Is this due to the carelessness of the previous owner, or is the epi leather just not ideal for this big of a bag?
Do you have an opinion on the belts(leather vs. canvas)? I have been doing some research and some are saying don’t buy the Navas belts because they will crack, and that all leather pieces are better 🤷♂️
im looking to get some sneakers. I was wondering how long do they last? I think it might be worth buying a pair even if they are more than a grand because I go thru a lot of shoes every year. and I might be able to save money in the long run if I spend a lot on 1 pair of designer shoes. if they last forever then the purchase will be well worth it.
7:00 Hahaha :D Well I‘m small, and I have had so many of these kinds of bags over the years :D Christopher is done better by other brands, LV one tends to loose the buckle, as it’s magnetic and on the other side only attached like a belt, just not ideal. Don’t know anyone who has a gucci version, and if it had the same problem, but pretty much every brand under the sun has these and the buckles are mostly sewn onto the bag.
I have to go to the store and see how big/small it actually is. But it’s not really a priority as I really trash my daily bags and am not investing in one.
LV has done a horrible job of communicating to women that it is a travel company with handbags. They market to women as a handbag company with travel that started as a travel company.
What’s the different prices for repairs? If someone gifted you a bag or you got it from a resale shop can you get it fixed at the store? I have an older bag and the lock is rusty. I bought it from a fashion RU-vidr.
You should bring it to the store and they can look it up. The prices vary, but yes, even if you are not the original owner, you should always go to LV first for repair. The lock is maybe $60? But you can try a metal polish too. Thanks for watching! 💕
I bought a over priced wallet from them and it lasted a couple months more than a Walmart wallet did I go through two wallets a year regardless the company I will never pay more than 50 dollars for a wallet ever again
