its been a while since i did one so today i present to you.... my new Ouvea Carryall

isn't it a beauty? my newest and least conservative piece to date. sorry kids, daddy's got a new no.1 fave. i instantly fell in love with LV's new chain pattern since i first saw photos from the Spring '06 Men's show.

the Carryall is the latest soft-sided luggage they released this Spring. it is also available in luxurious Tobago leather and classic Monogram canvas. but this new model combined with the rather obscure Ouvea canvas = INSTANT HIT (in my books anyway). here is the Ouvea's one appearance - as a Keepall - in the entire Men's S/S 2006 Catalogue:

this strictly limited Ouvea line is constructed from a whipcord-like canvas with a Monogram chain jacquard pattern and tanned leather handles and trim. and like my Keepall50, i also had my first inital heat-stamped on the luggage tag:

it's just the perfect everyday bag when i need to lugg around a pile of texts and my tiny Powerbook.





i still can't get over how beautiful the chain pattern is. it is very different from the usual LV monogram and i really like the retro feel of it too. a guaranteed head-turner.



I LOVE IT!

specs: - Ouvea canvas collection - men's Spring/Summer 2006 - limitation: 100 pieces (?) - vegetable-dyed tan leather trims - polished brass hardware - terracotta cotton lining - 2 lateral pockets, 1 interior zipped pocket - brass padlock, keys and matching luggage tag and handle keeper included - dimensions: 41w x 31h x 28d - retail price: AU$2,080.00

i took another read about this bag and noticed the limitation. cool. man, i love the carryall. super. i want to collect all. hahaha...sent you mail by the way. i just realized the one i saw did not show the luggage tag, padlock/keys and the handle keeper on the photos...i inquired about it though...

yung 100pcs limitation hearsay lang. pero talagang bihira ang Ouvea. it didn't even show up on the LV website, and it only appeared once (it was the Keepall and partially pa) in that season's catalogue. go for it!
