LOUIS VUITTON CAPUCINES BB TOTE
In the name of mini bags, we are here to proudly announce, the super-cute Louis Vuitton Capucines BB tote.
Apparently it’s too small to be sold on the internet as you can only order by visiting your local boutique. But that’s okay, I need to do some exercises anyway and on my journey to the store, I can put my sunglasses on and enjoy some sunlight.
First some facts; the Louis Vuitton Capucines Tote was first introduced, it was featured in the ad campaign with Michelle Williams. The monogram version was a no-no for most of us, we wanted to see more than that. So LV decided to bring some single colors to the party and they are damn gorgeous.
The Louis Vuitton Capucines tote is a legendary bag, the name itself is inspired by the street where Louis Vuitton started their first store in the year 1854. The exact street was Rue Des Capucines in Paris. This tote is also called a two-face bag, because you can either flip the flap on the inside to enjoy the bold colored LV initial crossing in the center, which I belief is more elegant and chic, or you can move it to the outside to reveal its monogram flower.
Now finally in the BB size, the shorty fashionista can add another classic to their wardrobe. It’s finished with shiny silver palladium accents, the mini size also comes with a removable long shoulder strap for the casual shoulder or cross-body wear.
Measuring 7.9 x 10.6 x 3.5 inches (W x H x D), crafted from full-grain Taurillon leather. The interior is enriched with 1 flat pocket, 1 zipped pocket and 2 large compartments open it with a snap hook closure. At Louis Vuitton boutique or e-store for $4,400 USD / €2990 euro / £2480 GBP.

Fashionable, modern and everything…in mini size. The Louis Vuitton Capucines Bag is known for its sleek design with 3D LV signature crafted on the front. But when you introduce the flap, the iconic Monogram Flower will appear. Isn’t that amazing?

Here’s another one to consider – black, pink and beige. The handle is painted in black, the body is colored soft-pink and the flap is beige. When you put the flap on the front, the beauty of the mixed colors reveals itself. And what does it remind you of?

Every bag lover knows the iconic Louis Vuitton monogram pattern, but the House of Louis Vuitton dates back to the mid-1850s and has a long line of heritage and craftsmanship. My newest obsession is the Louis Vuitton Capucines bags, whose name pays homage to the earliest Louis Vuitton Maison, which was located on rue Neuve-des-Capucines in 1854.
The signature bag may look simple, but it's anything but. The bag is a marriage of two leathers: rounded, strong bull-calf leather alongside supple, silky calfskin. The combination adds a level of discreet elegance that is hard to ignore.
Consumers have turned away from monograms as a whole, from luxury designers and contemporary brands like Coach alike, and clearly Louis Vuitton listens to its shoppesr. Sure, some may still want to buy the classic monogram bags, but many prefer the timeless elegance that remains part of the brand's heritage.
With the Capucines, you get an extremely very well-made bag, which takes over 250 individual handcrafted operations to arrive at the final product. The colors vary season to season, with one of my favorite renditions right now following the snakeskin handle trend.
Another special touch surrounds Louis Vuitton's initials, which have never been seen in this interpretation. The LV initials are sheathed in bull-calf leather and then inserted into claws set into the grain of the leather. It may not seem like a big deal, but this is new for the brand and took its craftsmen much careful development.
When I learned the intricate design details that went into production of this bag, I expected higher price tags. And with the Capucines, you are looking at some of the largest price tags Vuitton offers for its leather bags. A Capucines can be had for $4,400 for the smaller BB, $5,600 for the MM, and $6,050 for the GM via Louis Vuitton.
Louis Vuitton brings in new designs for their iconic Capucines Bags this Spring 2016. The BB size is one of the popular choices for the Capucines. New styles this season includes multicolor Taurillon leather. The Capucines BB in Taurillon comes in contrasting vibrant colors such as Rubis, Grape and Magnolia. Even the Capucines in Tweed are available in new colors, from the classic Bleu Eclair and Rose Petal to a daring Fluorescent Pink. Louis Vuitton also introduces the Capucines BB in sequins this season, this style is perfect to use for special occasions.
