Attempting to mix the two well-loved elements (denim is currently out of season, but spare me this opinion piece) is the Louis Vuitton Monogram Denim Handbag replica line. It includes handbags in different shapes, including the Cabby, the Mahina, and the classic Speedy.
I perfectly respect LV’s commitment to creativity and innovation, but is denim a good, fashionable way to redevelop monogram? I’ve read other bag fiends complain about the Marc Jacobs monogram denim patchwork collection for LV, and they’re quite transparent with their disdain. “Not nice,” “overdone,” what-have-you. The pieces really do look overdone, but what about the simple stuff in the LV denim lineup?
The LV Monogram Denim Mahina XL Replica in Black is the one I appreciate most. For one, the sober black shade does a good job in tempering the denim and monogram elements. I’ve also always been a Mahina fan, with its shiny golden brass hardware and its chic open-top glory.
If blue and monogrammed denim are your thing, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Denim Neo Cabby MM Replica in Blue will appeal to you. The box pleats are cute, the detachable sling convenient. I’d probably settle for another sling bag, but I wouldn’t turn this away if I’m wearing my plain white tee and cuffed pants. Off to sweat it out at the gym!
Do Speedy fans think of this handbag as desecration? Hollywood celebrities like Jessica Simpson probably don’t, since this stonewashed denim monogram manages to give the Speedy a funky twist. Give me a ring if you think otherwise.
The final verdict? I’m still on the fence when it comes to this LV line. Admit it: it’s been the subject of much fashion snobbery, and not even Marc Jacobs is spared.
Keep posted for more signature handbag replica news.
