I was thinking about brands that are popular but that I don’t cover that much anymore, and Louis Vuitton concerned mind. like numerous others, my first high-end designer bag was from the brand, and it was the tiny Wapity grasp (which I still own and still adore). Over the years, I picked up a few limited edition pieces, but I started to pull away from the brand and toward others.
Louis Vuitton is many known for its monogram canvas, and while it has tried to distance itself from some of its many popular bags, it seems the people have spoken and monogram may be making a comeback for the brand in a decidedly up-market way. The first monogram bag I’ve liked from the brand in quite a while is the Louis Vuitton Pallas.
The majority of the Pallas bag is the monogram canvas, but the interior of the bag has colored calf leather peeking out, giving it a very distinctive look. There’s a smaller crossbody version, the Pallas BB, which is, of course, the version I like best. The interior is much more luxe than other LV bags, with microfiber lining. The price is also much higher, which seems to be the norm for LV in general now. There isn’t much much more to this bag; it’s a terrific size, it has an adjustable take on strap, and it’s all about the Monogram.
I’m kind of amazed I like this bag as much as I do, but I guess I’ll always have a soft spot for the renowned monogram canvas, and, truth be told, no one does a monogram quite like Louis Vuitton does. The larger size is $2,490 through Louis Vuitton and the BB is $2,260.
