Why there aren't many men carrying Louis Vuitton on the streets of London as many as the women did? Especially the LV monogram that is the true signature of the fashion maison. If you stroll around Knightbridge, Regent Street or even Oxford Street, chances that you gonna stumbled upon ladies carrying either LV Speedy or Neverfull are very high. There're loads of them. But men? Maybe because we're not as much conspicuous as the ladies who need their style to be validated by the onlookers. Instead we are much more discreet - the luxury that we carry doesn't have to show too obviously. But does it?
When a bloke are caught carrying a Louis, to me it shows the symbolisation of high taste. A high status. And even stamped to their forehead they really have appreciable amount of disposable funds in their account. Why, coz LV bags are not cheap. They're the ultimate luxury items that anyone could ever wanted. Could ever dream of. Could ever have. Own it - then words can't describe how it made you feel good inside. As if you've accomplished something big, like buying a car or so (since some of them can even make a car deposit btw!). While at the same time you feel the high risk and the need to protect them like no other. Just like my LV Damier Graphite Tadao. I don't think I'm gonna flag it around coz chances someone gonna nick it is too damn high! At least not in the Tube, no. Erkkss...
Whatever it is, it's great to see some risk-taker guys carry their Louis Vuitton. Monogram, Macassar, Ebene... Keepall, portfolio, messenger or even totes; they all look fantastic!
