DIY Louis Vuitton Inspired Mod Purse
I love vintage fashion. I've been collecting vintage clothing for over thirty years. I have a particular affinity for the fashion of the early 1960s. So when I saw the divine Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2013 mod collection popping up in the fashion pages, my heart went pitter pat. Alas, my wallet is not in sync with my desires, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and make a Louis Vuitton inspired DIY purse. You can get the instructions for this retrofabulous creation in the iLoveToCreate blog today!
Hooray!
