So this came in just today and I was so excited to unbox it :) I bought the key pouch at LV online since I wanted something that would keep my cards and cash together when I am using a smaller pouch. I got this for $214.55 inc tax. It came in with the same packaging as the store and they also added a nice ribbon and gift tag to the box which is so cute.

This snall piece of canvas surprisingly can hold more that what I expect. I loaded it with 15 plastic cards plus cash and it still look like it could hold more :) I got the Damier Ebene canvas since I am planing to pair it with my Eva clutch and mini pochette which are also in Damier Ebene canvas. Also, I did not get the monogram since I am still in the hunt for the limited edition Cerises collection whcih is in monogram canvas.

This SLG would most likely one of the items that I would purchase over and over. I target to have at least four or five of these in different print and material so you would see more reveals like this in the future.

Some of you may know how I go cray cray about Sanrio stuff and I chanced upon this Hello Kitty rose wine being sold at winecountrygiftbaskets.com. I am not a wine person so I couldn't speak for the wine quality but I can testify that if you look into collecting wine bottles, then this would be a good addition to your collection. Normally I don't go for anything perishable when it comes to buying  Sanrio stuff but this one is an exception. It wasn't just because it was a Hello Kitty marked wine but the heart shaped on the neck of the bottle got my attention. It's rare to find wine bottled shaped that way so it's kind of cool! :)

I bought this online for $33.90 incl S&H and they have a gift option if you plan to purchase it someone as a gift. The wine came in a really nice and secure package. The only thing surprised me when I got the bottle was that it looks larger in the pics as compared to the actual bottle. The wine is probably half the size of the a regular sized wine bottle so if you are planning to buy this for consumption then his maybe a consideration.

I've no intention of drinking the wine so this will probably sit on my mini bar counter as display.

I had an eye on this for almost three months and have been thinking about it since.  Finally I had the chance to drop by LV in Edina, MN and bought it for $831.38 inc tax. My SA was not around so someone else assisted me. Contrary to the common experience of others with LV SAs, the Edina SAs were more than being helpful to their customers. I came in wearing just casual clothes, completely undone hair and no makeup  and I did not feel unwelcome at all.

During my purchase,  I had second thoughts between the Eva and the Favorite MM but still leaned towards the Eva clutch. The Favorite may be able to handle more stuff but I prefer Eva's zip closure than the Favorite's magnetic flap closure.

The Eva clutch is versatile - you can use it as a cross-body bag for a casual look or use the chain strap for a fancier look. I have a huge phone so size was also a concern for me and my ip6+ fits perfectly and still leaving enough space for other essentials. I'll have another post on what I can stuff in there without breaking the canvas apart. :)

I had an eye on this piece since it was released in 2012 and I saw it at the Edina, MN Louis Vuitton display but was hesitant to buy that time since it was retailed for $1200 USD which during that time was way pricier than the regular Neverfull MM. I had to think so much about the purchase but as soon as I decided I would get it, it was no longer in stock.

The moment I saw this, I automatically fell in love with it. Why? Not only that it is a limited edition item but also the collection is the same name as my daughter. So I find this item close to me at a deeper level :) I figured I would give this to my daughter when she grows up :)

I've seen a number of these being sold in pre-loved consignment stores but normally there had been a significant wear and abuse on it already. Some may seem a good deal as it was being sold for half the price but I tend to be anal about the condition of the item. When I found this pochette at Couture USA site, I didn't second guess myself and decided to purchase. I got this for $349.99 (bag retailed for $355). The thing about getting limited edition items in excellent condition is that you either pay more or pay the same price it was sold for when it was released, so this to me was a a fairly decent deal.

I've used this a couple of times and was surprised that it hasn't had much patina on the vachetta yet for a 9-yr old purse.  Since the cherries print was small, it isn't noticeable so it kind of blends in your outfit like a regular LV purse. The print though, once noticed could be a nice piece of conversation. I like it how I can always make this personal by telling people who noticed why I purchased it in the first place. Even if it's considered a past season release, I still get compliments and even my SA the LV Edina store find it cute. My daughter loves this too since the size was perfect for her (although I am not letting an 18-month old child to use this no matter how much she begs me

Overall, this one is my favorite purchases and never regret getting so yeah :) I hope Cerise would love this as much as she does now when I hand this to her when she's older.
