I wonder how much those pants cost O_O

^oh thats pretty easy to calculate... its 10$ per LV logo, thats why they put nothing else except that on their clothing and bags, etc. :P
just kiddin' but I guess an aweful lot would be quite close

That's quite true. Well, at least Ayu knows how to spend her cash: on expensive purses. lol

It looks like Ayu had this bag when she was shopping for soup and other things in the on my way photobook:

I don't think it's the same one in INSPIRE PV.

Looks like it. I'm willing to bet she's got at least 5 different LV purses/ bags.

Oh my gawd I want the Men's Messenger Bag. Too bad I don't have a grand to shell out for it. Sad day.

Wow I never noticed this before. xD She does like her desisgner products. Has anyone noticed her Versace bedspread cover in the MY STORY cover?

^yupp I saw this and now I want it so badly :laugh

yup, MY STORY has a bunch of designer's stuffs worn by her. Ayu really like LV though, in the Arena Tour 2004-2005's backstage her dogs were inside LV bags.... *drools*.
btw, i have 2 messenger bags and i consider buying them for investation also.. you can sell them later when u're feeling broke ^^ (esp. with the certificate, you can sell them for about 80% of the original price)

Oh Louis Vuitton...haha, wow, Ayu loves it all! She has very expensive taste....

Personally, I don't think I'd ever buy any of these expensive brand names..I don't see anything really special about them....x_x; But that's just me.

My mom got a LV purse from my sister-in-law for Christmas...haha, funny. =P

I have one article from the Damier Geant series and a (too big -_-) bag in monogram canvas. I actually like the Damier geant better. Not so flashy.

personally i don't really like LV...everyone..and i mean everyone in HK has it now..so it's sorta gotten cheap looking..:laugh..i still don't have money to spend on it..so a fake one for me is fine!!

i would expect ayu to use designer things..she is a star after all...and if they didn't use designer items then it would seem rather odd don't you think? and ayu does have an interest in fashion so it's pretty logical for her to like brand names..

If any of you are actually interested in prices or what designs they are, I can probably figure it out for you since my mom is a big LV shopper. However, we've been shying away from their monogram bags because those fakes are so abundant nowadays (but it's really easy to tell if they're fake after owning a bunch of LV)

But Japanese people are particularly into brand names, so it's not exclusive to 'rich' people (I'm told there are 15 LV stores in Tokyo alone)

Fifteen? O_o Jeez.

Do you mean the pics of her in the airport? With the LV bags and luggae?

There's a poster that I can't find (I actually own it, but my digital camera is in storage) from either Arena Tour 2003-2004 or a-nation 2004, can't remember which... but I'm pretty sure it's the Arena Tour... anyway, she's wearing a pink bikini top and a sparkly rhinestone visor, and she's wearing a really cool Louis Vuitton necklace. It's her lying by a pool. Has anyone else seen this, or know where there's a pic online?
If not I can try scanning the poster (it's pretty big though) of just the necklace.

yeah I know what pic you're talking about, I cant seem to find it now though...
and I never really payed attention to her necklace there

There aren't 15 stores in Tokyo, but close to it! I could count eleven, visiting the official home page. Louis Vuitton has more stores in Japan than anywhere else though, and I read somewhere that aproximately 50% of merchandise sold by LV is bought by japanese customers. Even when is was visiting the Louis Vuitton stands in the big malls in Paris, japanese people were everywhere. O.o

Yeah LV is HUGE in Japan. My cousin loves LV.

I guess since Ayu loves LV. I know was shopping like crazy at the LV store in NYC.
