Louis Vuitton’s Raindrop Besace bag.
Louis Vuitton’s Raindrop Besace is a waterproof draw-string bag that to us looks a lot like a designer trash bag with its detachable leather shoulder strap and goldtone hardware. It comes in gray and brown with the LV logo printed on the front.

We gotta say, it’s nice to see the green theme taking off in a Louis Vuitton ad.

One of the world’s finest designers, Louis Vuitton, has finally conquered Mongolia with its 440th worldwide branch opening there last October 23, 2009. The new store located in Central Tower echoes the LV Damier pattern in design, making it an unmistakable landmark to the already modern building.
Without a doubt, the opening ceremonies showed off Mongolia’s cream of the crop, from top Mongolian celebrity Mrs. Ichinkhorloo, to Louis Vuitton chairman and CEO Mr.Yves Carcelle and Executive Vice President Mr. Pietro Beccari. Even royalty was in attendance, with Princess Yabshi Pan Rinzinwangm, daughter of the 10th Panchen Lama of Tibet, there to offer her best wishes.
