I use to have a severe obsession with Louis Vuitton. I literally saved every penny I earned to buy handbags and accessories by the coveted brand. I didn’t care if it made me broke, I had to have Louis Vuitton goodies in my possession and the more the merrier! Don’t even get me started on the Multicolor collection. I splurged so much on this collection it’s ridiculous. Ever since I watched “Newlyweds” with Jessica Simpson and she rocked the collection, I had to have it. I didn’t stop at one purse though. I had to get 7 pieces from the collection. Talk about putting me in the poor house! I look back at it now, and shake my head! I will probably will end up selling it all eventually to help fund my move to Los Angeles. Someone slap me now!
I’m a hopeless romantic and I have a severe obsession with hearts. Any fashion accessory that features a heart in it, I automatically love it. Even if it’s ugly, I’ll still love it because hearts are equivalent to love and love is beautiful. Well, at least in my opinion it is.
When Louis Vuitton came out with the Multicolor Heart Change Wallet Key chain, I wanted it so bad. At the time I didn’t have the funds to purchase it and my Mother was not about to shell out $400 for me to have it. As I get older, I’m more wiser when it comes to money and this one by Marc Jacobs is adorable for a great price.

Jennifer Love Hewitt looked so put together at the Foundation Polo Challenge, an event to benefit the American Friends of the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry. I love her navy blue dress from Monique L’Huillier and blue-gray peep-toe pumps from Christian Louboutin. But what is this lovely nude handbag I see accenting her look? It looks like a miniature version of the Louis Vuitton Vernis Alma. I haven’t seen a pint-sized Alma since Louis Vuitton’s little satin pieces from about a decade ago. So I guess it was about time for Louis Vuitton to once again experiment with favorite style-inspired minis. If you ask me, the Vernis Alma was an excellent choice!
