yeah i just dont get it. its such a cute bag and all but its not functional at all. the big & heavy closure slaps down every time, the bag doesnt hold very much (no long wallets) and the strap is just too short --- like i said in a different thread, all they have to do is add a couple links to each side

The Marilyn bag has been so huge this season and I dont even know why...

remember the 33 bags in the trunk or whatever now this..
The original retailed for $1200 and this one $5k?!?! why? only difference is the croc in replace of the leather.

Wow this is the first time hearing anything about this. I think $5k is a bit much for this bag. Seems like not a lot of people are not a fan of it, so why does LV continuing re-introducing it.

the measurements are 9.4"x 5.1"x 4.3"... which basically can fit a small wallet, cosmetic bag, and phone.

I saw this bag at LV over the weekend, they had it in two colors. I would not buy, crazy price for a tiny bag.

I love multicolor but this is a bit too much for a LV in my opinion.
