Must hunt down item 12!!! Papillon is French for butterfly 🦋 so when you’re looking at it front on, it looks like a butterfly with the handles as the wings hehe
I bought the sunset, the cles and the noe revival mules😍still waiting for the mules. Loved the denim collection when it released in 2005, but I had no chance to buy a LV back then, I was a student. So satisfying to finally have some denim pieces almost 20 years later😍
Meredith, I don't know about the fabric in the other mini speedy but the "Denim" in all your Vuitton pieces IS a JACQUARD, and what makes it a jacquard is the fact that the monogram is achieved by how the threads in the denim are woven instead of: the monogram only being a layer of paint on top of the denim, the monogram being put on the denim by distressing it, by using a resist dye technique (like the CHANEL denim flap Dayle has), by lasser cutting it and then backing it with another fabric (like Amelia's Loewe jeans), or via embroidery, quilt, or embossing/debossing. Yes it is denim but it's also a jacquard, a relatively"simple jacquard but a jacquard nonetheless. They're not mutually exclusive terms 😊
Hey Meredith! Just finished watching your LV denim unboxing part 2, and it's like a burst of pure joy! Your excitement about each piece is so infectious, it's like we're rediscovering these treasures right alongside you. 😍 It's heartwarming to hear about your mum's original baggy from the 2000s - talk about a precious family fashion legacy! Your video took me on a nostalgic trip too, reminding me of the fashion icons of those days. It's amazing how these pieces carry so much history and personal stories. Keep spreading this happiness with your unboxings; it's a bright spot in our days! Can't wait to see what you'll surprise us with next. 💫
Wow! You got so many beautiful pieces. I rely live the cosmetic pouch. Ooo!!! The Fair Fact bag is very cute. Love every single piece you got. It’s so awesome to see someone excited.
I understand it. I have this crazy love for my monogram PM Agenda. The look that you got when talking about the Papillon is how I feel about my Agenda. I get such joy with this particular piece 💕
I KNEW there'd be a cosmetic pouch in Part 2! 😉 I had the monogram canvas Papillon 30 with the baby in 2004, really didn't get on with it then, but now I regret getting rid of it. 🦋
Hi Meredith, the pieces are so special since you are a massive denim collector. Since you buy so much Louis Vuitton, have you considered asking your sales associate to put some of the pieces together in a big box instead of a box for a each piece? I can just imagine the massive recyling you do all the time.
They would if I asked them to, but they know for the filming individual boxes are more impactful. I have an industrial recycling bin for those that don’t go to new homes.
Hi Meredith! I love your collection and watching your unboxings! I just wanted to thank you for creating the videos. I know it must be a lot of work, but it is much appreciated!! I love watching these handbag videos of my "RU-vid" friends more than watching TV (except I love watching General Hospital). Thanks again and keep them coming! You truly make me smile while I am watching the videos and I see how happy the handbags make you (mine make me happy too!). All the best!🥰
Love this and would definitely buy the old version of the zippy wallet in denim!!! Let’s manifest this!!! (And in pink denim while we’re at it!!). I’m surprised you didn’t buy the larger cosmetic bag. I may have to get the small cosmetic bag. Thank you for taking us on this journey. So fun!!
So much happiness in one video, I love it. You can see how happy these pieces make you through the screen!!! I remember my mum buying the original baggy and she still has it now 😊
Loved it all, thanks for sharing the prices too. I think the carryall and papillon are my favorites. I have the mini pleaty which is my favorite too. Loving the zippy coin purse too.
Again, seeing your absolute joy at unboxing these pieces makes my day lovely Meredith. I wanted to reach in and feel that Papillon. It looks so soft and squishy. I have a couple of the old Soufflot's with their babies in the Epi leather which I love. They are a very similar style to the Papillon. I truly hope you can get your hands on the 12th piece you are after. Much love. Jenni. XX 😍
I wasn’t sure about the new denim I loved the original but in the pics all the bags looked so stiff. Seeing you unbox these bags made me change my mind ! Definitely pieces I will get now ! Thanks for sharing
Absolutely love the collection tfs. I did get the key pouch. I’m going to give in and get the cosmetic pouch. I have a feeling your 12 bag is the on the go tote.
I’m so jealous…beautiful collection. Looking forward to you styling. I have a couple pieces from the original collection myself I’m going to bring out.
Loved part 2 of your denim collection Meredith ❤ The contents of the original mono papillon always shifted from one side to the other which was a nuisance; the denim won't have that problem 👏 Which piece are you most excited to use?
Another great haul Meredith. Even my eyes might have watered a tad at some of the prices and I very seldom look at the cost 😂 I might even get myself that carry-all ? I’m not up on a lot of LV piece names xx. Enjoy lovely and thanks for sharing xx
Thank you so much Meredith, I can truly see how much you enjoy these pieces. I was hoping you would have gotten the Fairfax, as it looked quite small and I was not sure whether it would fit an iPhone ProMax. The measurement on the website is 7.1 in height, which would suggest you could fit one in. I’m glad you showed that it is an unlikely fit.
So I took the chance because I think the Faifax would be so perfect for vacation. I can fit my IPhone 14 pro max in it, its definitely tight but it fits. I’m so happy. A bit overpriced but hey you love what you love. Most of my purchases I make online, I live in the US, the closest LV store is over an hour away and I hate to shop in Malls. What is shocking to me is that I came to realize that some of these pieces must have been a store sample or a return. The ribbon on the box was not tied and I had no stickers on the clasp. The bag looks ok otherwise so i will keep it but it always leaves a bad impression paying so much money and thinking I was not the first person to unbox the bag.
I love the papillon mother and baby in the denim print☺️! It’s so lovely! The bag itself looks kinda roomy enough to hold the essentials. I also love the zippy wallet and also still hoping and waiting that Louis Vuitton will bring back the old style zippy wallet🤔
Meredith, you are the true LV queen!💖👑☺…….I so loved your saying regarding how the new denim collection makes you happy, remembering what LV was in the past, when you would go in and purchase bags in their stores before it became the machine it is today.🙁That touched my heart,🩷as I miss those days as well😔 Question-are all of the new denim pieces made in France? Also, as a designer, I think it is interesting that in this new denim collection, LV combined; the gold rivets on some of the bags, as they used on the vintage multicolor collection, and the triangle gold closures from the vintage LV Beverly collection.
So cute 💙!! I’m thinking about getting the Cosmetics Pouch. Is the interior a wipeable lining? The Product Details on their website says “washable textile lining” 🤔 Thanks for sharing, and have a great week, Meredith!
Hi! Thank you for Part 2! Loved it! I was hoping you would have purchased the little backpack. I’m still waiting for mine and curious if it’s worth it?!
I love your denim collection! They are all amazing pieces. I have a papillon ( the one with the pink flowers on it- I don’t remember the name of that collection) and your straps do look a lot longer.
Amazing, you’re really been invested in this since the early 2000s. Do you feel shopping at LV or in general has changed much in store then. It must’ve been incredibly fancy back then?
Interestingly I can't find the fairfax on the UK website and the number code corresponds to the Hills instead in the UK - Unless the LV website is playing up!
Hello, your purchases are wonderful but I have a question! What does it mean that you are a collector? It means that you buy to have on display or to resell? sorry I'm ignorant about that. 🥺
I collect like a stamp collector or a spoon collector. I have them to use and display, but I have an emotional attachment to them. I do sell bags but it’s not often.
Lovely denim slg’s and bags Meredith. Are the prices you’re quoting in USD or AUD? If it’s USD I’ll just go drink 🍹 now ; if it’s AUD I’ll go sit somewhere 😂 Enjoy
One of my first designer bags was a Prada Nylon Backpack. It was the years when the straps were thick, narrower and soft feeling perfect against the shoulder. I never used it as a backpack though. Just double strapped over a shoulder. I will wear the LV same. Love your info! ❤
