Louis Vuitton handbag review. Is it worth it?

In April 2013, I purchased the Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM handbag click here. Unfortunately, it seems that my bag is not available in the normal lining in the medium size. It is however available in the small size and the large size.

This is how my handbag looked when I first took it out in April 2013. I got my handbag personalised by adding my initials in gold. This is one of things I love about Louis Vuitton. The handbag itself is actually quite big which is ideal as I tend to always carry a make-up bag, bottle of water, umbrella etc. One thing you should be aware of is that this bag doesn't have a zip at the top. It does have one inside the bag though but you can't carry much in that little section. Be really careful if you take this bag out to places like London as it is really busy, you may not realise if someone has stolen from you, especially when people are bumping into you on a regular basis. Just make sure you can see your purse at all times and keep your ipod/phone in the side pocket where you can zip it closed.

This is the cover for the bag that is provided.

Prior to buying the bag, I was on the Louis Vuitton website looking at this bag for about 3 months. When you are thinking about making a big purchase, you should really read about the product and go and actually try the bag. I tried this bag three times before I actually bought it! The one thing I questioned was the strength of the handles because they are really thin. When I asked this question, the man said that the bag had actually been tested and can carry something like 50kg.... 

This is what my bag looks like currently with things in it.

The things inside the bag. It really can carry so much! As you can tell from the above photo, you can carry a lot more than what I have pictured here. However, I would refrain from doing that if you don't want to ruin the shape of your bag.
So after a year, my bag has got a little darker, the handles are more noticeably darker. All in all, I would definitely buy another Louis Vuitton bag because I really do love this so much! I tend to wear this bag when it isn't raining outside because I don't want to ruin it by wearing it in rain! 

The next designer handbag I am thinking of buying is the Mulberry Bayswater in oak click here. I have a mulberry purse so they would match!! 

Please let me know your opinions of the Mulberry Bayswater as I am still thinking about it!
