Always loved the idea of using Louis Vuitton’s Toiletry Pouch as a clutch but constantly frustrated that you can’t get your hands on one? Well, you can turn to the brand’s luxurious alternative known as the Pochette Voyage MM, a handsome piece crafted from Louis Vuitton’s premium Taiga cowhide leather that’s furnished with several pockets and 6 card slots within that all-in-all makes for a handy pouch for the everyday. But if you’ve always yearned for a version in bright, bold colours (with a splash of the brand’s signature monogram print), you can turn to the latest update of the Taigarama collection. This second release includes all-new silhouettes like the Outdoor Flap Messenger and Outdoor Tote, as well as the Pochette Voyage MM, all of which come in bold new hues like Pacific Blue and Volcano Orange.

The Pochette Voyage MM measures 27 cm wide and 21 cm high, making it slightly bigger than the Toiletry Pouch 26. That means it’s big enough for a day’s worth of essentials, and you can even throw in a notebook and a pen if you like. There isn’t a need for an extra cardholder considering that it comes with 6 slots within, but you might want to bring along a money clip just to hold a neat stack of cash. This special edition comes in a mix of Monogram Canvas and Taiga cowhide leather trim and is priced slightly lower at SGD1390 each. In comparison, full Taiga versions start from SGD1600.

Aside from Pacific Blue and Volcano Orange, the trio consists of Antartica as well, the more subtle variant for those who prefer to keep it low-key. The golden question? Which colour has caught your eye?
