Louis Vuitton “Pochette Bonbon Rose”

Uh oh! I think I will have to stop writing about my issues with patent leather since there have been so many SS bags I really liked recently, which happen to be in patent but are simply too gorgeous for me to look the other way. I will say this now and I won’t bring the subject up any more. I do not feel like patent leather anymore, but I will overlook it if it is incorporated into the design in a way that the bag looks like a SS bag at the end of the day. I am not thrilled by the patent on SS bags, and it really does have a strong impact on how much I like the bag, but from now on, I will do my best to either ignore the patent leather, or if it really looks messed up, I will simply say the bag looks like a past AW bag instead of a SS08 bag. Case closed.

Having said all this, I think it would be about time I start writing about this cuter than cute pochette. First of all, I love the fact it is a pochette. It would really be too much for my taste if it were any bigger, since the design, or color scheme to be more specific, is somewhat bold and leaves a really strong impression. I feel that in a bigger size it would leave too much of an impression, if you know what I mean. This size is just fine.

The pochette can be hand held or carried on the shoulder - in this case, I would prefer to carelessly carry it as a top handle. The handles are adjustable and the top is featured with a zip closure. Some of the other features include contrast microfiber lining, golden brass hardware and an interior patch pocket. The address label is removable, and I am not quite sure what I would do with it. I am not much of an address label fan to be honest, but in this case it seems like it is giving this pochette more charm.. I would most likely simply remove it the moment I got my hands on it regardless, I don’t know..

Anyhow, the Bonbon Pochette comes in two versions: the turquoise version with pink leather details and in pink version with red leather details. I prefer the turquoise one because it feels really light and carefree, as we all feel in springtime, and the pink version seems too heavy for my current taste.

Both versions are bold, but also very refreshing, which is exactly what I love about them. I ceirtainly wouldn’t mind having this one in my collection, although I have to say that this is the kind of bag you would buy when you already own a considerable collection, since it is not a bag that will suit any occasion or complement any outfit. If you can’t restrain yourself from buying it anyways, who am I to blame you.
