Louis Vuitton Bags: Dog Carrier, Discount Prices, Replicas And Faux Handbags

Most people cannot stand the sight of Paris Hilton strutting down the street in skinny jeans, carrying her pooch in an expensive leather carrier. Surprisingly, however, the socialite continues to influence trends in fashion; and when she touts a Louis Vuitton dog carrier, young women take notice.

Louis Vuitton bags are known for their high quality, their looks, and above all, their prices. LV bags are typically printed with the Louis Vuitton monogram design. This recognizable print makes spotting owners of these bags easy. Owners want to be spotted, since the bags are somewhat of a status symbol, thanks to their very expensive price. Purses, satchels and Louis Vuitton dog carriers cost hundreds and even thousands of dollars.

A search for Louis Vuitton dog carriers at the official website yields two results. The bags are similar, except one is 15.7 by 11.8 by 8.6 inches, and the other is 19.7 by 13.4 by 9 inches. Both Louis Vuitton dog carriers are printed with the famous monogram design. While the straps are leather, the actual Louis Vuitton dog carrier is canvas; as canvas is more durable. Since dogs' claws tend to tear fabric, the material of the Louis Vuitton dog carriers must be more resistant to scratches than leather. The canvas is also waterproof.

The Louis Vuitton dog carrier stands up by itself thanks to a flat bottom; the sides then rise to a rounded top. A double-zipper closure provides ease, in both keeping the dog safely hidden away and in allowing him to poke his head out. A mesh window on one end of the Louis Vuitton dog carrier lets in air for the tiny pooch. This mesh window can also be covered with a rolled down flap. These Louis Vuitton bags also feature a tag to write a name and address, as well as shiny brass pieces. The lining is washable, which is definitely a plus, since dogs can track dirt into the bag.

Although Louis Vuitton dog carriers cannot be purchased directly from their website, they are for sale at other online stores, as well as at Louis Vuitton shops around the country. Eluxury.com features both sizes of the Louis Vuitton dog carriers. The smaller dog carrier costs $1,680 and the larger one is priced at $1,850. Savvy shoppers could search websites such as eBay, where there is a smaller Louis Vuitton dog carrier for the discount price of $825.

For many people, however, even the discount price at eBay is much too expensive. Fortunately, replica Louis Vuitton dog carriers are available. The Louis Vuitton Bagz online store sells faux handbags, including Louis Vuitton dog carriers, for discount prices. The replica smaller bag costs only $229, while the larger one costs $239. The faux handbags at LV Bagz look so similar to authentic Louis Vuitton bags that, at first glance, it is almost impossible to tell the difference.

Some choose to spend more money on Louis Vuitton dog carriers than they spent on purchasing their dogs. While the authentic bags are extremely well-made and durable, replica bags offer average people the same style and class that comes with owning an actual Louis Vuitton.
