Tell us about it! Was it love at first sight, or is there a story behind it?

Back in the days the Speedy by Louis Vuitton were very famous. Also at that time the Damier Azur simply touches my heart. After my first summer season job I was able to buy my self the icone LV pochette accesoire in Damier Azur. Still have it today although you can imagine how it looks like now as it was about 18 years so a bit vintage 😅 afterwards I could buy my first Speedy damier Azur and my mom got her Eva Pochette 🫶✨️ when I graduated she got me my Damier Azur wallet and of course that's only the starts of a nice collection 🤗

 

What's your most treasured handbag in your collection, and why does it hold a special place in your heart?

This is hard... although I had the chance to get a limited edition Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami Nano Speedy white and couldn't be more happy about it. Still have it use it yet due to the fact that I moved from a country to another 😅 FYI: all of my handbags have a special story that represent something that happened in my life. I also have a Dior Caro in Pink Denim which I love so much💖

 

What's the one bag on your wish list that you've been dreaming about adding to your collection?

Have you ever sold a bag and regretted it? If so, which one and why?

Lastly, do you have one piece of advice you'd share with our luxe-loving community about building or caring for a designer bag collection?

Building a designer hand bag collection is something I never thought I'd be able to do in my life and I worked for it. So girls keep working hard to achieve and reach your goals. Also never forget to get your Havre de Luxe products after buying any designer bag to keep them in best shape ever 🫶
