Is That Kim's Bag?



For all my real Atlanta Housewives fans. Sheree was spotted at a New Years Eve Party hosted by Solonge and Jamie Foxx. But, that's not the news. The bag she was carrying is the same bag Kim (non-vocals) had on at the lunch with Sheree and Lisa (where Kim called Nee-Nee a drag queen). Is Ms. S really that broke? So, are reports true? Is Sheree really not what we think? I don't know, after so many false reports on income and rented houses from these women, Bravo might-as-well do Housewives of PG County.

Louis Vuitton "Monogram Vernis Alma MM"



This bag is a reinterpretation of an Icon the "Monogram Alma". The Vernis hit stores summer 08' and was only available in 3 colors, now available in 4 new colors for your spring/summer needs. My personal favorite is Blue Galactic (oh, I could just lick it). To view the new colors please visit http://www.louisvuitton.com/. I know we are in recession but if I get my hands on $2080.00 the bag is mine! The Vernis is larger than the Monogram Alma by about 3 inches. There's also a much larger version "Vernis Alma GM" for 2500.00 which is only available in 2 colors.
