You can either save enough cash to buy your choice Louis Vuitton handbag. Of course this would take you several months and you would have to forget about paying rent, phone bills and food for quite some time. You could purchase a knock-off at your local swap meet, garment district and not-so-lawful dealer. But you would always have that knowledge of buying a knock-off over your head. Either way, you may be sacrificing your livelihood or your pride to get that handbag.

Nonetheless, one can dream of attaining enough disposable income. Enough of it to go onto the official Louis Vuitton website and start purchasing handbags. For a luxury brand site, the LV site is one of the best as it displays the brand and the lifestyle associated with it so well. And as shopping site, it is one of the best as it displays each line and item descriptively and clearly.

As a brand site, you will see the “World of Louis Vuitton”. It is a journey through the brand’s history, core values and designs. You also get profiles of their staff, notably their head artistic developer. But you also get a sense of their commitment to the environment and to charity. Last, you get details of their world famous sailing competition, the Louis Vuitton Cup.
