Louis Vuitton: Monogram Vernis Poch-Clef

Danny and I ended up exchanging our Anniversary presents early, once again (its actually in August). We went to the Louis Vuitton shop supposedly "just to look" but he surprised me and got me the poch-clef to add to my Monogram Vernis family/collection. I already own the zippy wallet and the Brea MM in the same colour, Amarante.

It was the last piece in the store and he didn't want to wait so we got it. He knew I wanted one because I'm saving up for a Chanel Classic Flap in medium/large and my wallet would take up most of the limited space inside it. I would've got a smaller wallet but it didn't make sense as I have a fully functional wallet and I love it to death. It fits everything you could possibly need in your wallet without any bulging.. The poch-clef is the perfect size to use with any of my smaller bags as it holds my essentials. It can fit my driver's license, student ID, bank card, credit cards, notes and small change. The key holder/hook doubles as a hook to attach to the inside of any Louis Vuitton (attach to the D-hook).

Onto photos ...

A safe place ...

A special package arrived at my door today. I purchased it off eBay as a gift for my bf. Its not just any watch box. It has a built-in motor to wind your automatic watches so that they don't stop when you don't wear them. That's smart if you ask me. It was a decent price and definitely a high quality product. Delivery was express and efficient as well. I received it in two days package after payment, paid on Sunday, received on Tuesday. I know he loves it because he wanted it :) I'd love one myself if I loved watches as much as he does.

Joyful bf gets his present !

A closer look inside ...

Bringing my baby home ..

Finally my baby Louis has come home with me .. It's the Louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis Brea MM in Amarante <3 .. It was a tough day's shopping, especially for the boy .. Thanks baby, I love you xx ... 

And I got my Chanel earrings that were a gift from the boy replaced because some of the crystals have fallen out. I was so upset because I took proper care of them, but after reading some forums I soon realised that is was a common problem with the classic Chanel cc studs. I'm very pleased with Chanel for replacing them, no questions asked. It was good to learn that they will either repair them or replace them if they have a pair on hand. You definitely get what you pay for .. That is service!

Here's a proper photo of the bag from the LV website. I couldn't get a quality photo with my iPhone :(

Check out my matching zippy wallet here.

My first Louis Vuitton ...

When it comes to spoiling me my BF never fails. This is supposedly a 5 months and early 6 months present. I mean, it better be! Since my Christmas presents kept coming and coming (Chanel earrings, perfume and lip conditioner). No more okay babe?! This can be 5, 6 ,7, 8, 9, 10, 11... months as well ... 

To be honest, I was never a fan of the Monogram Canvas or the Damier Canvas collections (maybe except The Berkeley bag in Damier Abene Canvas) but I am so in love with the Monogram Vernis Collection! Every colour is to die for but I think Amarante is probably the easiest to match with since its a dark rich cherry red and looks like black at first glance. Great choice babe, I LOVE IT!

(Thanks babe, now stop spoiling me!)

"It's so FLUFFFYYY !!"

Finally... I have survived through the long wait for the arrival of two items on my wishlist. It was a very long 2-4 weeks wait for both. Sitting by my phone, anticipating every call, just to get that call that tells me "... it has arrived". Okay, I may be exaggerating but it was a long wait...

House of Harlow 1960: Black Leather Sunburst Double Pendant Necklace - Thanks to my awesome bf =)

Longchamp: Planetes Tote in Black - Thanks to me haha

Crossed off! I can finally and officially cross them off my ever-growing wishlist... I am most definitely a happy girl !


Not related but still exciting news is that my company has today officially signed Lady Gaga for her debut fragrance ! It won't be out until at least a year from now, but can you imagine how out of this world it will be?! oh so GAGA!

I'm also really excited about the new Chloe fragrance "Love, Chloe"  launching next week. It's already out on counters in selected stores that carry the Chloe house fragrances, so come in and have a sniff .. It's a stunning high quality bottle. Made of the finest glass with latest technology for an almost invisible atomiser. Features a fine rose gold chain that connects the cap to the bottle and carries a sophisticated powdery floral scent ... I'm in LOVE !


Key notes:
Heliotrope, Iris Absolute and Rice Powder
Also, had a massive haul at the SK-II counter yesterday. Broke. I cannot wait until pay day on Wednesday ! I will post up my purchases soon.


So .. How are you liking my new camera? =)
