Louis Vuitton is a premium luxury brand that is sold all over the world. It is the standard when it comes to luxury handbags and the LV Monogram bag has become the standard that other luxury fashion houses try to obtain. The company started its operation almost 150 years ago and started by selling travelers luggage.
Well, the wait has finally ended for the Tahitienne Collection! And it gets even better! These bags are available in four different colors in two sizes! Check them out:
These new Tahitienne bags are pretty cool, aren’t they? They are so versatile because of their hook closures. The opening can either be hooked together (like the way they are shown above) to give it that trapezoid shape OR they can be left unhooked with the corners pointing out (resulting in a more traditional rectangular shaped tote). I also love the print on these bags! It is so whimsical and summery looking. Yep, you guessed it! I am thinking these bags would make great beach totes (or even shopping totes). The lining is absolutely adorable as well! And where did the inspiration for this print come from? According to Louis Vuitton’s website, the print was inspired by a catalogue published back in 1924.
Now this does all sound too good to be true, doesn’t it? I mean, a really cute canvas bag created by Louis Vuitton that is absolutely perfect for Spring/Summer. So what’s the catch? You probably already know where I’m going with this, but I’m going to tell you anyway. Yep, its that darn price tag. The prices for the Tahitienne Collection range from $1,000 to $1,160. These bags are comparable in size to the Louis Vuitton Neverfull bags and yet they cost approximately $400-$500 more. Why? It seems to me that they are a bit overpriced, especially since they scream “Casual Summer Tote”. But I suppose, this has been becoming a pattern lately with Louis Vuitton.
Well, here are the specs anyway:
- Hook Closure
- Cell phone pocket, interior zippered pocket, and D-ring
- Adjustable straps
- Protective Base Studs
- Two sizes: PM (6.7″ x 10.6″ x 16.5″) and GM (8.3″ x 13.8″ x 20.8″)
- Four colors: Lilac, Menthe, Pink, Sandy

I love LV! They come up with some of the most unique designs. I have to admit, when I first laid eyes on this design I didn’t like it. I actually thought to myself, “What is the world have they created!” I notice that LV has definitely branched out into the pop-icon culture with their designs. Some are a far cry from the classic version that I’ve grown to love! Nevertheless, after I stared at it and read the specs on it, I thought the gray and pink was cute (if pressed to pick one). It is definitely a summer-beach tote. It’s cute! Great info on the bag too! Thanks!
