Louis Vuitton Mahina
Louis Vuitton has done it again. They have made a bag that is pricey and highly sought after. Last time I was in Louis Vuitton Bal Harbour I ran into a member of Purse Forum. She was desperately looking for the Mahina, but they were out, as have been many Louis Vuitton boutiques. We reported on the Louis Vuitton Mahina when it was first released (dubbed the Louis Vuitton XL and XXL) and since then there has been Mahina mayhem. But the bags, both in XL and XXL are available in eLuxury right now. The XL costs $3100 while the XXL costs $3900. Told you, expensive, yet understated with the monogram LV and the large slouch. Grab it while you can!
Love it love it love it!! But why sooo expensive?? Every season the price of bags is jumping. Why? Why? Enough!
why are the prices so high? Because Louis Vuitton is owned by a multinational corporation, which only wants your money
. With the exception of Chanel and Hermes, all of the big name luxury brands are now owned by Multinational companies, and worse than that, all of these bags are made in China, with extremely minimal labor done in Italy, sometimes the only thing done in Italy is to place the Made in Italy label. How do I know this? Read
Deluxe, how luxury lost its luster. The author was a fashion writer for years, and explains exactly where and why your Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Versace, etc were made. For myself, I try to stick to Channel now, thank God for Karl Lagerfeld

why I dont understand is every year LV bags are more and more expensive. Then you wonder why people (myself included) buy fakes. I am so sorry I can’t see myself buying a 3,000 bag just because. What gets me is when people on their high horse that wants to scream bloody murder because you are buying fakes. Like I say, they will be alright, because as long as LV and all the others continue to increase on there bags, it will always be someone in the wings that is willing to sell the knock-off
This bag is too pussy,too baggy for my taste and the price is too high too.
Reminds me of the Jimmy choo Alex. This is just a little bit mroe slouchy.
I like this bag ( in black only) but I still prefer the Nimbus GM.
Waay over my price range, but I wish it weren’t. I love it in the white, it shows the pattern much better. But I’d take either one if I had that kind of money.
I love the white too.
I bought both Mahina white XL and Mahina XXL from Beubag.com which were very good qaultiy absolutely love them!!!
Here at The Purse Blog all of us
HATE 
fakes or as Beubag says replicas 
, so next time, please dont post anything about you buying fakes.
Mette, I think YOU are queer!
Why do you find it necessary to make a negative comment on all of the bag listed? Why would you describe a bag as “pussy”? BTW: English isn’t my native language either but I don’t find it necessary to describe a bag as “queer” or “pussy.”
Yeah – don’t get the “pussy” comment. Gross. Love the bag. Really, really pricey.
I like this bag but the black seems really boring for the price and the white reminds me of a dingy hospital white. Personally, I think that it isnt unique enough for the price but the black could be a good basic.
love this bag, but i wish they would make one smaller…
Love it alot! Wish I had one in both colors.
Amie: Maybe I just have not seen many nice bags on this site. I know there are lots of beautiful ones,but only few reach this blog-in my opinion. The word pussy is one of my own,just trying to be creative; merely trying to describe it. Use your imagination: a pussycat who has curled herself/himself for a lazy nap.
Amie: One more thing. I have understood that we are here changing opinions on bags,fashion. I think it is far more insulting to comment on people. I might be queer in some ways,but I don´t think that it is your right to judge me based only by one comment of mine,where I wrote that a bag looks queer. I think you own me an apology,that is if you are mature enough for it.
Very nice. Still prefer a theda or a petite noe.
But that would look great with the right heels!

Saw it several times. Caught my attention just because it had a new look, and was LV. However, i find it too slouchy for my taste. Waaaay too expensive also!
Amie: Still waiting for your apology for insulting me in your comment!
Marissa, thanks for voicing this for us.
Why buy fakes and think something is real when it’s not, why support people that make counterfeit goods- sad!
As gorgeous as expensive!
i love the bag but its really pricey
i absolutely looooove this bag!!! it’s a trendy shape and is comfortable to hold… and even though you can’t see the LV clearly, it’s still the bomb bag cause u know it’s LV and it’s great quality
I don’t really like the bag… look unwieldy to me and the colours are drab.
love it from the very first time! thought about it for weeks cause it’s so pricey. finally i bought the white XL. it’s such a classic beauty!! the XXL is way too big unless you have the size of a giant.
I have fallen deeply in love with this bag.
Went to a Vuitton store today to fondle one, but they were out of stock. 
They will be getting one in shipped next week with my name on it. 
PRICEY? Yes, very… But I must have this one or I will perish, I know it.
lovvvv it!!! but way to expensive
Hi everyone. I have finally decided to buy a Mahina, but am debating the colour. I absolutely adore the white, but worry about how dirty it is going to get. Does anyone have the white and how has it been for you? How often do you use it?
Thanks!
Hey there, have u bought the bag? I m getting one n m facing the same problem as u. I find that both colours are nice, in fact white may stand out more than the black? but the difficulty in maintaining the white is holding me back. Got a feeling i may go for black in the end. Coz i cant afford to get bags at tis sorta price range often and so it is a bag that i wld use for a some time…so guess black may be a wiser choice for me. Good ting is that either can be easily matched
i have a black mahina xl abd i so so so LOVE it!!!its worth the price!im planning to purchase the ivory one soon too.
Simple and Sleek – Chanel Handbags Online
You’re searching for a handbag. Not just any handbag, you’re searching for the handbag
that will match everything you own. You want one that will not only be perfect to bring to
work, but one that will work well on a date, or when you are out shopping. You want a
handbag that will match your outfit and that will have plenty of room for all of your
belongings, and you also want one that is inexpensive yet well-made.
Chanel handbags online can offer you the best deals and the best bags available. One bag
that may match your search is the Chanel Medium Lambskin Tote bag. This Chanel handbag
online is made of a simple, supple, soft black lambskin leather. It is large enough to carry
your things, even to be used as a high-quality diaper bag if you’d like, and is simple
enough to match anything that you may own. The signature double c’s are attached to the
zipper, and the bag has padded straps to allow you to carry it on your arm or hold it in
your hand. This is definitely a bag that could work well in any situation.
I was never a big fan of LV but personally I LOVE big bags. This one is absolutely amazing and subtle without it screaming hey I’m an LV bag. I cracked bought the XL in bronze which goes with almost everything in my closet. It’s super soft, eye catching, and not too overwhelming even if I’m 4′11″. My new all purpose ‘MOM/IT’ bag. YAY!!!
Replicas are not the same as fakes, in that they aren’t illegal to sale or own. Replicas are just that, replicas. Fakes and couterfeits are items that are being passed off as being the real thing when they are not. So get over it.
I don’t know who or what CHANNEL is (I guess Mette likes fake Chanels *cough*), but the queer/pussy is obviously mette. It’s so pathetic to call an inanimate object such insulting names. What a retard. Mette, you’re a queer. Go cry in the corner idiot.
OK, does anyone know about beubag? How is the quality. I hate knock-offs, but with purse prices the way they are going..UP, and the number of fabulous bags out there, I have no choice. Please, anyone, let me know. Thanks. Please, I want honest answers. Thanks
mahina is my frens name (:
oh my gosh! my name is mahina :O
On eluxury.com, it shows Mahina L, Biscute colour. I am so in love with the bag but too pricey…. LV should not market their product merely for the super rich but for ppl like us too, who is willing to buy more bags with reasonable price… I hope they are reading all these post
I am a petite person..don’t know if I should get the Mahina L in Elephant Grey or the Surya XL in Grey.
It’s a nice bag, but $3000? Anyone who buys this is a ridiculous person!
You can buy five/six years worth of textbooks with that kind of money.
Or pay half your tuition fees!
And never have to worry about car insurance for your shitty used vehicle for a long time!
Wow, wish I had $3000 I could throw away on a handbag.
NAAAAAT.
People are crazy. Before anybody buys this bag, I encourage them to think about people who could really use $3000. Like, really.
Haha, go sponsor a local, starving college student instead!
HA HA HA HA.
The world is a sad place indeed.
Anyone want to let go their pre-loved mahina?? I would love to buy it
About a month ago I was grappling between the purchase of the Mahina XL bronze or Biscuit (I was inclined to go for the bronze) and the Gucci sukey large tote brown python. Please see the link for an image of the gucci

Which should I have picked?
I guess you should have the benefit of viewing the Mahina bronze as well before deciding. here is the link.

Don’t mean to direct you to the LV website but that bag looks best in their site. just type ‘mahina bronze’ in the search bar of their site you should see it.
by the way wowseriously, i happen to sponsor a child through World vision and donate groceries to a home for orphaned girls every month. I also happen to love my handbags. You can do both you know! You might be in a tough place right now but if you had the money I think you might want to indulge in something that makes you feel good as well.
Ana74- I have the Mahina L- Mordore (bronze) & I love her to death! I’d pick it over Gucci anyday!! By the way, howcome so much negative energy here? I was reading thru the comments and some people aren’t very nice. Good luck Ana74!
Lieu – Appreciate the advice and I can so see why you went with the Mahina. It is awesome. I think the bronze is something else but I went with the Gucci. Thus far no regrets. It is GORGEOUS! enjoy your Mahina.
Ok, I just saw the cognac color in Mahina in large at the store and I am totally obsessing over this bag. The color is goregous with the gold hardware.
LOVE LOVE LOVE….had to grab one of the last XL Bisquit color ones.
The color was seasonal so no more…..
The color is so “warm” perfect for all seasons
I agree, the price is OUCH! but the leather is soooooo soft…LOVE IT
Just bought the Mahina L in Chocolate, it’s fabulous!!! I use this bag now even more than the other LVs as I can also use it as a mommy bag when going out with my kids.
