LV Motard Beforedark

Do you know what a motard is? Or actually who a motard is? Motard is the french (who’d guess?) word for motorcyclist. I had no idea what it meant so I simply had to look it up. I’m feeling smarter now… Hehe, just kidding.

Well ok, having satisfied my curiosity I must say I know that the Motard line isn’t the best looking LV line, but it is definitely interesting enough to give it some attention. That would be what the casual bagddict in me would say, but that bagddict has gone missing years ago. From the Tina The Bagddict point of view however, there is much more to be said about this bag. I simply love it and I don’t care what anyone says. The beautiful combination of sumptuous suede and the fine Monogram Motard textured leather on the foldable top is simply divine. The foldable top allows for this bag to be carried in various ways to matching different types of outfits and complete a specifc sophisticated look you might want to achieve. With a removable black shoulder chain left attached, you’ve got a beautiful shoulder bag, and should you decide to detach the chain, you will have a hand-held beauty which you can carry in your hand or by it’s bored handles. Be careful if you carry it in your hands though, suede is sensitive!

The interior is silk lined with a patch pocket. It’s a LE piece so you know what to do, don’t you?! It should be available at LV stores at this time, but it wouldn’t hurt to inquire about the status before you head to your local store, give your SA a call. You can also find it on the official Louis Vuitton web site, but unfortunately the USA e-store subpage still doesn’t have it available for sale. I sure hope both the louisvuitton.com USA e-store and Eluxury add this beauty soon. Until then I’ll give you prices in EUR and GPB.
