Louis Vuitton Monogram Empreinte

The Empreinte
is where the iconic Monogram pattern is subtly embossed on the supplest of calf leathers. Very discreet yet an indelible imprint of Louis Vuitton's heritage and savoir-faire. It's one of my favourite skins in LV. Check out the cool new website at www.monogram-empreinte.com.

A Weekend with Apol plus LVook-See

I had my good friend Apol from California visit us this weekend, so here's a few photos that documented the fun times.
A friend's visit is always a delight but being photographed having breakfast at two in the morning is not.
Of course, a visit to Louis Vuitton was at the top of list.
I was dazzled by a fur and pearl ring though I refrained from buying it. LVoe, LVoe, LVoe it!!!
Instead, I played with the Artsy Empriente! Goooooorrrgeous leather!!!
At least one of us went home with a lil' somethin-somethin...By the way, a few doors down, we saw Chris Brown and his entourage. I was star-struck despite him being an a$@h&le!
After-dinner drinks at Mimong's pad. Their wall of antique botanical prints was a sight to behold. I just had to take a pose.

Sadly, the weekend went by so fast and parting is such sweet sorrow especially if there's a Monogramouflage involved! Thanks for your visit, Apol. It was fun!

Louis Vuitton Monogram Empriente Tote

Let's talk about the Monogram Empriente Tote shall we? Slated to be released tentatively in November this year, not all boutiques will be allocated these beauties so inquire from your darling SAs if their store will be getting them. It will come in PM and GM sizes and in Navy, Bleu, Bordeaux and Creme. So far I don't know which sizes will get which colours. The GM above is Navy. My personal favourite is the Bleu (bottom pic, left). I'm really excited about this line since it's a new leather and the fact that it LVooks so functional with the shoulder and handheld straps. LVoe, LVoe, LVoe it!!!

Louis Vuitton Monogram Empreinte Collection

Wow, the reaction to Louis Vuitton's Monogram Empreinte was amazing. I have been getting e-mails about them since I posted a few days back. I think a lot of people have been waiting for a luxurious leather line to succeed the Suhali and Nomade collections. Mahina was relatively popular but the embossed Monograms adds depth to the material. As of now, no prices yet but I will update as soon as information is available. LVoe, LVoe, LVoe it!!!

Louis Vuitton Monogram Empriente

Presenting the new leather line from Louis Vuitton, the Monogram Empriente. Slated to be released on November 1st, 2010, the supple calf leather is discreetly embossed with the Monogram pattern. This will surely delight all LVoers who are interested into sumptious skins with innovative interpretations. Finished with a fine saddle stich, the pieces resonates Louis Vuitton's ideals of artisanship. And those colours!!!
LVoe, LVoe, LVoe it!!!
