OMG 13 Almas! I’m glad I’m not alone with the love I have for them ☺️
They’re a fantastic bag!

Coco Chanel's customised request to LV = Alma.
A classic and beautiful shape!
Seeing the renovated one is giving me confidence to get mine done. It looks perfect.
I love how Louis Vuitton stand behind their products and could bring such life back to the bags. Thanks for letting us know 😊
Thank you for watching
Meredith I just discovered your channel today. I am so excited to watch all of your videos! You are a true collector.❤
Welcome!! And thank you so much!
Wonderful collection 😍 I'm going to pull the trigger and order my first Alma bag today. Thanks for sharing and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!
Thank you. Yay!!! Can’t wait to see which one you buy.
@@user-od8qw7ti8k thank you I will 🥰
I love while multicoloured so much too! I wish they would bring it back. It's so beautiful. I love your red alma too, all of them are gorgeous though ♥️
The multicolour bags are my first love.
I love the alma! So chic and so practical. I have 4
It’s a fantastic bag!
I've been waiting for you to do this video and I wasn't disappointed! I have 2 Alma BB's, my everyday Epi noir and the monogram and I will for sure be adding more♥
Thank you for watching!
The Alma is my favorite bag! Your collection is beautiful!!!
Thank you so much!
Hi Meridith! Your Alma collection is amazing!!!🤩
That type of style from LV is also one of my favorites!!
As always, I enjoy watching your videos.😀
Thank you so much
Such a beautiful collection. Congrats 🎉 Meredith
Thank you
You don’t do anything in halves Meredith - love that about you! Can’t wait to see the multi-colour in GM pieces!!
Thanks mate. I’m an all in kind of person!
These are all beyond stunning ! I will take every single one thank you so much 😍😍 the Rose Ballerine, turquoise & the black Multicolour are my faves 😍😍 thank you for sharing with us !!
Thanks Nick! It’s a great bag!
Oh I love the little damier azur one so cute
Thank you
I love that one too.
My goodness... they are so beautiful...!! You are such a delight to watch and so very kind to share! To me these are beautiful objects d'art.. And so love to learn about them... I bought my bags when I was very young, and spent so much money when could not afford them... So now I'm very careful acquiring new LV bags... but they are and were my first love! Thank you and you are a treasure and should protect them, a collection this large is so valuable, they are so many bags they I have not seen yet....
Many thanks for sharing your treasures...❤
Thank you so much for watching!
What a awesome beautiful collection ❤❤❤❤ and very informative thank you ❤
You are so welcome!
Beautiful collection. The Alma is one of my faves.
Thank you
I love Almas so much! I started with a BB in black epi, and then over time I noticed that every time I saw old pictures of Almas in LV books and such, I'd just gush over them. So now I have the PM in DE and PM in white multicolor. Debating whether to add a MM or maybe another color from the archives. Such a classic!
Question! So, when I got my multicolor I was stunned at how heavy the hardware was. When you got everything replaced, is the replacement hardware the same as the original?
Thank you. Yes, when hardwear is replaced it’s replaced from the archives with exactly the same pieces made in the same era.
@@livingluxwithmeredith That's wonderful and good to know! Thanks!
Love your collection 🥰 Alma is possibly my favorite bag. Such a classy design.
Thank you
Wow! I love your Alma collection 😍 they are stunning! We share a love for the LV Alma! ❤️ so happy to find your channel subscribing now! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos!🥰
Thank you so much
Loooove the multicolours the most, definitely understand why you love them and had both refurbished! Also the BB is quite a nice size and I loooove the blue and green ones but not so much the guitar straps! And of course the wee Nano! 💗 love from NZ💗🇳🇿
Thank you Mel
I just found your channel. Your Alma collection is amazing. I especially love the bb’s. I also love the Speedy. Now I am going to watch the rest of your videos!😀
Welcome!! I’m so happy to have you here!
Your collection is amazing. You could open a museum some day.
Thank you. I would love that!
@@livingluxwithmeredithI hope you have good security and insurance for your collection. Did you see when Tamara had all her bags, shoes, and jewelry stolen in a targeted heist in her Paris apartment? Not to be a downer, but your collection is so valuable.
love seeing all the different Almas thank you! i am not a collector but i do have 2 Almas, so I guess I am a little obsessed with the style too. it’s just so versatile and i like the story behind the design.
Thank you. It’s a fantastic bag!
omg that green!!! I need!
It’s a great green!
Also that iconic photo of Paris and Kim was in Sydney 🥰😍
Really?!?! I didn’t know that!
@@livingluxwithmeredith yes Bondi beach to be exact haha! I've always wanted the gold alma Paris was carrying! And her white monogram bikini top 💜💜
Love all. Alma is perfect.
It’s a great bag!
I just adore your multicolor monogram Alma’s. They are the shizzle! I have always loved this bag. So many great memories. I would love to know more about the process of having them refurbished? Have a lovely week x
Thank you. I’ll talk more about the process with LV when my Pochette Métis comes back so I can do a show and tell
@@livingluxwithmeredith that’s exciting!!!!
Great video! Nothing necessarily I didn’t know, but great seeing it all together. On to second video!
Thank you
Beautiful! 💖👛💖 Your red Alma GM is gorgeous and the monogram MM is such a wonderful size too….As a designer myself, I also just love the Murakami multicolore collection, SO excited you are getting the GM Alma’s 🥰….I love how the handles are thicker on them as well! [your tiniest Alma is precious….they did actually make a true nano one my friend owns]🤗
Thank you
Beautiful Alma bags! The vernis Alma is truly stunning❤
Thank you
Gorgeous Alma collection, I really enjoyed seeing them 🤍💗🤍
Thank you
I love love love the alma and the bb size is my favorite, I only have one, but it is the 1st one I would buy again if I could.
It’s a fantastic size.
The white multicolor bag is beautiful 🤩 but the blue ones are my favorite 😊😊😊
Thank you
The Alma is my favorite Louis Vuitton handbags, gorgeous collection
Thank you
@@livingluxwithmeredith your welcome
The two are my favorite are the pink and green that you chose in the thumb nail ❤ funny coincidence
They’re beautiful colours
Gorgeous collection. I have one Alma - the Neo Alma BB in black empreinte leather and I love it ❤️
Thank you
The light blue color is so ❤️❤️❤️
It really is beautiful
First and foremost you have a lovely collection of my favorite bag from LV. My personal favorites are the green and pink ballerine epi’s and the black and white Murakami’s.
Thank you so much
Amazing collection. I wonder what you will be adding 😃, can’t wait 💕
Thank you
Love this video, I love the Alma bags, maybe a Speedy collection be next 🤗💕
Thank you. I think I’m moving into my Neverfull collection next.
Thanks for sharing you collection! Would love to hear more about your refurbished process (process, price, experience , etc). perhaps a future video idea!
Thank you. I have actually done a video on Louis Vuitton’s repair process.
Love your collection! I’m currently collecting Alma’s. I have 3 in my collection so far; 1 pm (epi) , 1 mm (vernis), 1 bb (vernis). They are just so beautiful, classy and classic!
GM’s I’ve been iffy about because I feel like they might be too big (I’m 5’4).
I’m 5’4 and I love my GM!
You have such a fabulous collection of Alma's. I loved seeing all the different sizes. I am partial to the Epi leather though I do love the Damier Ebene as well, both very good for wear and tear for sure. I am looking forward to seeing more of your collection over the coming weeks. 😁 Much love. Jenni from Adelaide. XX
Thanks so much Jenni!
Love the collection I just purchased the alma bb totem in magenta African face collection. I love my bag it’s a beauty.
Congratulations!! So happy you have a bag you love
I own the gold and silver GM Alma’s! And 9 Alma BB’s, this is my favourite size.
I’m super jealous Narelle!!
They’re really hard to find in good condition but both of mine are pretty good!
Get out! Really? That’s super cool. Do you have the iconic photo to go with them? You should!
Thank you!! Love this video! The Alma is my fave!! I have all Alma BB’s. I love my bubble gram baby blue bag. I purchased in the light green too. Super cute! And I would be ecstatic if they brought the multicolor back 😍. I owned a long time ago the multicolored Alma’s PM and sold. Could kick myself 😞. Great collection!! Will add a PM at some point. Thanks so much Meredith. 😃
Thank you. Yes the green and yellow bubble gram Alma’s take up space in my brain!
Amazing collection, congratulations! I also love the Alma, I have three in my collection. By far the one that I love the most is my Alma PM in Epi leather!
Thank you so much
The PM size is both practical and elegant. The capacity is really good without bulking you out.
Yep, the bubblegram is called blue glacier. I got it in the Over The Moon style with guitar strap. The Alma is definitely iconic. I feel like the Epi leather is synonymous with the Alma. Just love it with that leather. Your Epi colors are gorgeous. The Azur with white trim and braided handle, I die, it is that good.
Thank you 😊
Amazing collection Meredith. I love love love the Alma. It was the first bag I dreamed of. (See my video re the first bag I actually received 😂) I still love the pm size. Love how you have brought the multicolours back to life. I have never bought anything azure and now lusting after something azure. X
Thank you so much Deb. Yes, the Alma is one of the greats, and they make amazing forever pieces.
I love these video’s
Thank you ☺️
Almas are so beautiful, especially the Almas in vernier (if I could, I'd buy all the colors! TRR has a lot of them, although in very good but not pristine condition).
They are beautiful!
You have to baby the patent leather ones and in particular keep them out of the sun and heat.
They're definitely a seasonal winter bag.
The sun degrades the PVC coating and makes it sticky. Once it gets sticky there is no return.
Love your Alma collection! 💕
Thank you
I love that you are a crazy women about your bags like I am.
Thank you so much
🌻
Both Alma videos were great,
Amazing collection 🥰
The Alma is my next one 🤭
Thank you
I am happy to know that I am not the only one who is crazy about bag 😂
We’re all crazy here!
The Alma is one of my favorite bags!
Your collection is beautiful 😻
Thank you
I personally love the Alma’s but I’m sick hearing they are now dated 😥🤬 . I have 8 , 4 being the patent leather which I think get the roughest deal out of all the finishes . Thanks for sharing Meredith and good luck with your search for the silver , I’ll keep my eyes open xx
Thanks so much Jean. That silver needs to be in my collection at some point.
@@livingluxwithmeredith yeah it’s a beautiful piece. Everything crossed tbh I haven’t seen it for a long time xx. Have a great week x
Ikr? Every time I pick one up to try in the store, if I am with one of my daughters, they dis them as old fashioned, but what do they know?
Hi Meredith! I love watching your videos so much. This particular one was of interest to me as I am considering the Alma bb in bubblegram like your blue glacier. I don’t have an Alma and don’t live near a boutique.. could you please share your pros and cons with this one? Thanks so much for your help here!!
The pros are it’s beautiful. The only cons are it is more delicate then most other leathers, especially in a light colour.
Gorgeous collection Meredith, I’ve always wanted a monogram GM just couldn’t ever pull the trigger. I didn’t think I’d ever use it but I bought the Hermes Bolide 37 last year and have used it a few times this year so I believe I’ll go ahead and buy the GM now. I really want to add some more multi colour to my collection but have such a hard time finding them without chipping of screen print or the lining bleeding through in the US it’s difficult to find in good condition.
Thank you. Yes, it can be hard to find the multicolour canvas in good condition but when you do, and have the bag restored, it’s so amazing
Far Fetch has a good supplier in Tokyo. The ladies there take good care of their bags.
Lots of eye candy there, especially since it is a new to you collection. I am looking forward to seeing your before and after video on the bags you have refurnished. I would be interested in hearing how much it costs for that type of service. Enjoy your collection.
Thank you. I’ll include costs when I do that video.
That limited edition bubblegram bag is gorgeous 😍 I'd love it in lemon yellow!!!!
Yes, the yellow haunts my dreams!
i loved it
Thank you
Love it! How interesting that you love epi as a durable leather when you don’t use them. 🤷🏻♀️
I do use them. Though not every day.
Amazing collection 👍👍👍 would love to see your review on SLG Xmas collections at some point please 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you. I’ll be doing a couple of videos as more information comes in.
Omg that baby blue bubble one. I need that Tbh I didn’t think I had that many pieces as I always say LV isn’t one of my favs. How wrong was I . Yellow ❤️ Every time I watch your videos we both have cardys on and today we both don’t 😂.
Thanks Jean. If you can shoot me through what you plan to wear on Wednesday that would be great as I’m filming then lol
@@livingluxwithmeredith 😂😂😂😂 I’ll put a pink cardy on Meredith X
I had an Alma and I sold it. Big regret! Now I’m in the market for one again!
There are always new Alma’s coming out so you’ll always have options.
Hi how’s your experience with epi leather? I heard it actually scratched rather easily.
I love epi, I find it incredibly hard wearing
I love the Alma pm, but do you have the ellipse pm or mm , I’ve heard LV will be releasing it in 2023
No I don’t. I only have the ones you send in this video
What score on those Multicolours, so hard to find the white without any bleeding or yellowing! My favorite Alma would have to be the puffy blue one, which from now on, will be referred to as the cloud bag 😂😂
Lol, the cloud bag is beautiful. Do I need the banana version? That’s the big question!
@@livingluxwithmeredith ummm yes!!!! Banana clouds!!!!
Thank you for this awesome and very informative video. You’re collection is 🤩😻Fabulous!
I must ask what your thoughts are on empreinte leather? It is my fave leather from LV (with some handbags) but I don’t have an Alma in empreinte yet; have been eyeing 👀- lol, anyway the fact that you don’t either, made me curious. Maybe I’ve missed something? 🤷🏼♀️
Regardless, amazing collection. Love your channel! 🤗
Thank you so much. I don’t actually have any Alma’s in the empreinte. The leather is beautiful but I fond Alma’s are so structured they need a more structured leather. For me the empreinte gives the bag a more pliable look, which is great if that’s what you want, but for me I like the structure.
@@livingluxwithmeredith thanks for responding, makes sense! 😎🙂
Can I ask what’s the cost of refurbishing these bags
It changes bag to bag. LV will always do a quote for you and you can even ask prior to actually buying a bag second hand. Do a hypothetical quote so you know if you want to commit to it or not.
Love this video. My favorite LV bag. I want an MM and GM. Do you have any tips on where to find one? The ones on Fashionphile are janky. God what I’d give to spend a day by myself in your closet.
Thanks Gene. I troll a few Australian sites plus The Real Real and Vestiaire Collective.
Meredith, what do you think of the Alma BB in vernis leather as an everyday?
I think it’ll show a lot of finger prints and will scratch easily. Beautiful finish but not everyday friendly.
Omg!! I did not know LV can literally. Replace an entire bachata, is it super expensive?
It can be. Always best to get a quote from them.
@@livingluxwithmeredith lol, my dual Spanish keyboard automatically changed Vachetta to Bachata, a sexy Colombian dance 😁
Will you be adding any of the empreinte Neo BBs? Also the epi blue is so dreamy 😘
Thank you. It’s certainly possible I’ll add more.
Thank you for this video Meredith. I’m visiting Melbourne this week and hoping to go to Louis Vuitton. Do you have a particular store you recommend? 💕
I’m also a sucker for the white multi colour, and hope to find one eventually. Growing up seeing the multi colour everywhere got me hooked. Fell in love with it. Yet to purchase one but it’s my all time fave.
I always shop at the main store on Collins Street when I go to Melbourne. The multicolour are definitely iconic!
@@livingluxwithmeredith thanks so much for your reply Meredith. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know which store I should check out. Have a great week!
Hi Meredith
You have a wonderful collection of bags I am just curious how do you store your bags?
She must store them in dust bags because the vachetta is so light on all of them. It will patina just being exposed to the light.
I have a video coming on Tuesday about how I care for and store my bags.
I have one Alma pm in MC Black .. I have asked for a BB in the lagoon blue epi .. Do you wear the bags ? I’ve had the MC for many years and used it once but if I get the BB I plan to use her ❤. I actually have a lot of bags I just look at and don’t use 🤷♀️
I would wear them all, but that doesn’t mean I do. I wear them as I want.
@@livingluxwithmeredith well same I guess I just don’t have time or chances to use all of mine and I’ve considered selling some . I guess that is why I was asking your opinion , just wondered if anyone else hoards bags like me 🤣🤷♀️ … I’ve had ppl say things like “ you should give some away I never see you wear those and it’s just rude . I don’t see any difference in my collecting what I love and someone collecting bells , spoons from different parts of the world or stamps etc …
Help Meredith reach 5k🎉
Thank you 😊
Мередит, добрый вечер Вам и Вашим близким. Классные сумочки от LV. 💖💖💖💖💖💖У Вас очень красивые руки. Голубая сумочка)))))🌺🌺🌺🌹🌹🌹
Why not emprinte alma in your collection?
I’m not fussed on that leather in such a structured bag
Did they make the bb’s in the multi canvases ?
No, just the PM and GM sizes
No, just the PM and GM sizes
❤️👏🥰
Get one more 13 is a bad luck number
I’ve added another
You are so rich can I borrow 20 grand🥺I only have one Alma bb😢
To have one Alma is still a luxury.
Thank you I’m buying number #2 next month in Damier Ebene is the pm heavy?
Designer collection my dear not luxury 🤦🏼♀️ canvas is not luxury
I disagree. I have exotics all the way to canvas, so my collection is most certainly considered luxury. For some people canvas is a luxury, therefore they can consider their canvas collection a luxury collection. It’s subjective
I agree! I started my collection with canvas pieces but sold them As they didn’t feel luxe but they felt durable.
Lovely to see your collection! I wish they would sell the Damier azur in the PM size with the pink interior. I never seem to fill my PM multicolor but I like the size for my body type. I may buy a BB in the EPI leather, I’ve not had that leather before, perfect for our weather here. I sent you a DM on Instagram, I found what you are looking for 😊
Can you re-send the message or just add to it, I don’t remember replying?!?! Also, yes!! A PM in Azure would be amazing! Especially with a pink interior!
@@livingluxwithmeredith I sent you another message on instagram about the gm’s in multicolor
