I love my Louis Vuitton pochette accessoires, and I've been using it every day inside of my grey Marc Jacobs bag... to keep my iPhone and camera separate from the cans of Diet Coke and car keys I throw in there. And I'm happy that I decided to get an accessory with an adjustable leather strap... it's so cute as a wristlet or shoulder bag for going out.
BUT, I like hardware. One bag I was really contemplating was the Louis Vuitton Eva bag, part evening bag/ part feminine messenger bag. But there were three factors that kept me from heating the Amex:
1. The long vachetta strap doesn't work for me. It just kind of falls between my breasts and I look ridiculous. DO NOT WANT.
2. There's a plaque on it. I don't need a brass plate that says Louis Vuitton on it. When the entire bag is covered in the LV monogram, I think everyone gets the point. If not, then they are stupid and I don't care for stupid people's opinions.
3. The bag was too large to fit inside of one of my satchels (*necessary for daily use, since the bag is too small to carry Diet Coke).
So, I'm ordering a chain. And the pochette extender part. So the shoulder strap with be half hardware and half vachetta leather. Dangling across the bag will be another brass chain. It should look more rock'n'roll for going out this way. Unfortunately, this little project makes it the same price as the Eva bag... but I want what I want and I want my Frankenpochette. You may think she's a monster but I see that she is a naive creature that is scared of the dark side of men.
