Love my Louis.

It's been a week since I received my large LV agenda.  And I LOVE it.  Prior to receiving it, I was worried about the following:
-It would be too large to carry in my handbag (I carry my agenda everywhere!).
-It would be heavy.
-The agenda wouldn't lay flat.
I am happy to report that none of these things are true.  It comfortably fits in my LV MM Neverfull and doesn't considerably increase the weight of my bag.  And it lays flat on my desk.  As you can see in the above photo, it isn't too chunky either.  I keep a fair amount of information in the agenda, but not enough to make it difficult to carry around.
Picture
When I open my agenda, the first thing I see is a business card holder from Cloth & Paper.  Instead of using it for business cards, I use it to store stamps, highlighter stickers, and a variety of other stickers.  
Picture
The next section of my agenda is my daily calendar. It's a week on two pages format. I ordered some Cloth & Paper undated calendar pages, but I think I am going to go back to my L'Agenda Moderne a week on two pages format.  I prefer the paper stock and the design of the pages.  The only unfortunate thing is that I have to order them from Paris.  My weekly todo list is on a Cloth & Paper template.  I place my weekly todo list in between my week on two pages inserts.  That way, I have my calendar and my todos all together.
After my calendar, I have five dividers from 8Lotus.  The dividers are frosted plastic.  They add a nice elegance to the agenda, as opposed to a clear or paper divider.  My dividers include "school calendar", "projects", "passwords", "letters to write" and "blog planning." I ordered a passwords insert from 8Lotus.  It is a well-designed format and perfect for someone (like me) who needs to carry around a number of passwords.

Next, I have some fun L'Agenda Moderne maps. I enjoy looking at these when I travel.  And the maps are followed by Filofax business card holders.  This is where I keep any business cards that I need regular access to, as well as photos of my family, ID cards, etc.
Picture
I like to carry colored pens with me.  I use them to address my handwritten letters (I strive to send at least one a week.).  And I use a colored pen to cross of my todos as I do them.  My favorite brand is Le Pen. I like the variety of colors and the fine tip.  The zippered pouch has 3 Le Pens and also some of my favorite family photos.  Originally, I had this pouch, as well as the other business card holders in the front of my agenda.  However, when I closed my agenda, they would stick out of the agenda.  They were too long.  So, I moved them to the back of my planner.  And the agenda looks much neater now when it is closed.
Picture
The last thing in my agenda is a Cloth & Paper notebook.  I use this in both my work and personal meetings to take notes. The notebook cover is incredibly smooth and has a high quality paper with a dot grid format.  And my Pilot Decimo pen fits snugly in the pen loop.
I am really enjoying this agenda.  It is a beautiful piece and I genuinely enjoy carrying it.

I know that you are really fashionable, but is paying this much money really worth it? I think that you really need to check what you buy. Well, maybe you are just too rich for this, but, man, that much money for a bag? I cannot ever think of anything that I will buy with that money. I hope that you are happy with it, because I am still in shock of the amount of money that you spent on that.

One of the great things about life is we all get to make decisions about how we live our lives and spend our money. Just to be clear, I didn't purchase a bag. This is a Louis Vuitton agenda. I'm betting you didn't even read the post. You just saw Louis and assumed you knew what you were talking about.

Wow, that's impressive! Hope you enjoy your LV Agenda. How do you think it will wear? I have several LV wallets and card holders which I take great care of but I always get the impression that LV canvas products are not as robust as people think. Will you update us when you've had it and carried it for a month or two, and maybe tell us how your MM Neverful is holding up? Thanks

Hi Steve. Thank you for your comment. I will definitely do a blog post next month to show you how the LV agenda is aging. I have been really happy with it. So far, there are absolutely no signs of aging. And it is incredibly durable. I just added some 2020 calendar pages (January - June), so the agenda is a bit thicker than it's been, but it's not too heavy or too bulky. And I will also do an update piece on the MM Neverfull and the new Samorga organizer. The Samorga is incredible!

Hello Paige, warm greetings from the UK! I am wondering how you are getting on with your LV Filofax and your Neverfull bag. I'm mainly interested in how they both show wear to the canvas outer. I have meant to ask before but 2020 was such a chaotic and traumatic it seemed a bit flippant. I sincerely hope that you have all stayed Covid free. Kind regards.

Hi Steve. Thank you for your note. I hope you are doing well after the tough year everyone has endured. But I'm hoping 2021 is off to a great start for you. To answer your question, my LV agenda is aging well. It has a bit of a patina, and I believe that makes it even more beautiful. I am not currently carrying it, though, as I have started using a Filofax Malden (in navy), but I change out my agendas every 3-6 months. I like using all of them! And my LV Neverfull continues to be a favorite of mine. I love it's shape and it ages incredibly beautifully. They are both investment pieces. Thank you again for the note!
