Our friend Marc Jacobs sure does love to court trouble. He overshares about his personal life,Thank you for the good writeup, tattoos random things on his body, and dates more men that most college sorority girls (don’t take offense, ladies – I, too,leather handbag wholesale, was a college sorority girl). And ever since Mr. Marc took over as the creative head of Louis Vuitton, their yearly accessories collections have become hipper, younger, and dare I say, edgier. As a throwback to the Stephen Sprouse graffiti collection of years past, Sprouse’s artwork has been used to adorn handbags,wholesale leather handbag, scarves, sarongs, and various small accessories for 2009.
Sprouse was a pop artist and punk icon of the 1980s, and the loud colors and louder shapes of his work reflect the exuberance of youth culture during that decade. I adored the leopard print Sprouse scarf that made such a big impression last year, and in this year’s full collection of the artist’s inspired work, my favorite is, again, a scarf – The Louis Vuitton Monogram Roses Stole. It’s bright pink and red with huge pop art roses, and it makes me smile just looking at it. It takes a talented man to make a floral print into something edgy and punk, don’t you think? Some people love this stuff, and some people hate it, but our own Louis Vuitton forum proves that everyone loves to talk about it – and that seems to be Marc Jacobs’s entire intention. Buy through eLuxury for $890.
I’ve said it before, and I am saying it again. I despise LV’s traditional monogram canvas. I don’t find anything pretty about it, and all the canvases that derived from it over the years look like Takashi himself puked his guts out on them… multicolore,
