The Louis Vuiton Vernis and Epi leather are my two favorite lines from the house of Louis Vuitton. I’m posting double pics today because I am at a crossroad between deciding which wallet I want to get. Basically I need something that’s roomy enough to store all my essentials that I can use as a wallet and stylish enough to use as a clutch. Oh decisions can be so hard. . .
Louis Vuitton | Monogram Vernis | Porte-Tresor International
Price $550
The modern silhouette and glazed shiny finish on this Monogram Vernis wallet is what drew me in. Pictured above is the perle and framoise, both my favorite colors that would be perfect for spring. At this time the Porte-Tresor International is also available in red or noisette.
For those of you who like the silhouette but don’t like the shiny finish, then you should check out the Monogram Mat collection. It looks very similar to the Monogram Vernis only with a matte rather then the gloss finish.
Characteristics of Vernis Porte-Tresor International:
- Patent Monogram embossed leather with smooth leather lining
- Snap closure
- 6 credit card slots
- Long inside coin purse with hidden snap closure
- 2 long pockets for currency; leather pen holder
- Measurements: 7.5″ length x 4″ height
Louis Vuitton | Epi Leather | Porte-Tresor International
Price $505
The Epi line is so simple and recognizable that it has no need for having the ‘LV’ logo plastered all over (there is one subtle ‘LV’ embossed on one corner). Out of all the Louis Vuitton wallets, this was my first choice but the only reason I’m hesitant is that they’re all out of the Mandarin colored wallets.
Characteristics of Epi Porte-Tresor International:
- Epi textured leather with smooth leather trim and leather lining
- Snap closure
- 6 credit card slots
- Inside snap change pouch
- Penholder
- Two inside patch pockets
-’LV’ embossed on one corner
- Measurements: 7.5″ length x 4″ height
