There has never been a time that I have not had the best experience going into Louis Vuitton. This time was no exception. I've stated before that having a relationship with your sales associate is very important and mine never ceases to amaze me. I first met my SA back in April of 2014. At that point every time I had gone into LV I had a different SA but I never formed a relationship with any of them like I did with Veronica. She has been nothing but amazing to me since that day and I would recommend her to anyone who asked. There's been several LV trips where we miss each other but she's put items on hold for me to look at when she's not there and when she is there I can easily spend an hour in there just talking with her. She's more than just a sales associate. I consider her a friend.
This past Saturday I stopped into Louis Vuitton after making my first purchase from Chanel. (I did a reveal on my new card holder in my previous post if anyone is interested in reading it.) I had contacted Veronica ahead of time so I knew she would be there and I waited patiently for her while she was going other things. We must have talked closed to ten minutes before I even brought up that I was there to buy something. She asked how I've been, what I've been up to, and how our kitchen remodel went. Her reaction to the pictures I showed her were priceless and I wish I had asked to see pictures from her kitchen remodel.
The whole reason I got this item when I did was because I would need it before visiting my dad later this year. My husband and I don't have a traditional Christmas. Yes we put up a tree and there are presents underneath but those are for our family not for each other. We buy whenever and just hand it over. Some think we're crazy for doing that and I am sure that we are but we're okay with that. We have Christmas with his family and a Christmas with my dad so getting ours out of the way is so big thing for us.
I had the Toiletry bag 25 on my wish list for nearly three years. After getting my very first piece from the LV (Speedy 30 Mono) I had put this item on my wish list but with as little as we travel I was afraid I'd never use it. The item kept getting pushed back and then one day I said screw it. You're going to regret it if you don't get it so that's exactly what I did. The only issue I had was the same issue I have with everything. Monogram or Damier Ebene. The Monogram had been the canvas that made me fall in love with the item in the first place but as everyone knows I am not a big fan of patina. I don't mind it for a while but once it's dark I just don't like it. I prefer the raw vachetta leather when you first get an item or a very light patina and since this item would be either in my suitcase or the bathroom I was terrified of the leather getting wet. I looked at both while I was there and while I still love it in Monogram I got it in DE for a few reasons.
1. If the leather gets wet I don't have to worry about it.
2. I wouldn't be the only one using it. My hubby and I would be sharing it so I wanted something he'd be okay with.
3. DE is my absolute favorite canvas at Louis Vuitton.
The first thing I did when I got it home was toss in every single thing we would take on vacation with us and I still had room for more. My husband kept telling me 'my brush is too big it won't fit inside of it.' I told him it will fit. I was right. It fit with no issue what so ever. He did like the fact that we could just take it into the bathroom and not have to make ten trips to the suitcase when we needed something. It's definitely going to come in handy and now that I have it I need to try to convince him into taking more trips so I can use it more often.
