A Peek into History
The Louis Vuitton GM Noé was created in 1932 with a unique purpose: to carry champagne bottles.
How fun is that? Have I used mine for that purpose? That's not your business.
It was designed to hold up to five bottles, making it an elegant and practical accessory for transporting bubbly to upscale gatherings and celebrations. This functionality, combined with its chic design, quickly allowed it to become a staple in the fashion world.
The iconic Neverfull, introduced in 2007, was designed for women on the go. Commonly known as the basic, rich chick's, baby bag of choice, it’s quite versatile, spacious, and endlessly stylish.
If you shop consignment, you can find amazing, authentic pieces for affordable prices, but it takes patience and a keen eye to find them.
Where to Wear Them
The Neverfull is a fit-your-entire-life-in-it bag. It's perfect for everything, whether you're heading to work or taking a weekend getaway. Its spacious interior can hold all your daily essentials—from work documents to gym items—while the lightweight coated canvas ensures you won't feel weighed down.
The open-top design allows for quick access to your belongings, which is particularly convenient for busy women juggling multiple tasks. Plus, the bag includes a removable pouch for added organization, making it easy to store your cards and keys.
Reese Witherspoon has been seen over the years jetsetting with a GM Neverfull on multiple occasions. If it works for Reese, one of the most successful women on the planet... what's bad about basic? The Neverfull goes perfectly with tailored trousers, a crisp white blouse, and loafers for a polished work outfit. It's open-top design and spacious layout, lets you grab what you need quickly. You could also pair it with denim and canvas flats for a more laid-back approach.
Why They're Nice to Carry
They’re both crafted with Louis Vuitton’s signature coated canvas and premium leather, ensuring durability while providing a luxurious feel in your hands. If you take care of these bags (and it's not hard) they last forever.
When a Vuitton bag becomes a bit worn/beaten up it looks even cooler. That's not just my opinion, some of the most stylish icons would agree. Google women like the Olsen Twins, Jane Birkin, Camille Rowe and you'll see.

Celebrity Style
You can often see stars like Emma Stone and Selena Gomez sporting the Neverfull, styling it effortlessly with their chic outfits for casual strolls or travel. The GM Noé has graced the arms of fashionistas such as Beyoncé and Rihanna, who pair it with everything from high-fashion ensembles to streetwear looks.
Their ability to transcend trends and continue to shine in the spotlight speaks volumes about their stature in the fashion world.
Styling Ideas
With the GM Noé, I love pairing it in winter with a classic, mid-length to long coat, chic boots, and wayfarer sunglasses. I like a relaxed yet sophisticated vibe.
I don't like a lot of patterns or brands competing. Quiet luxury has served me well when I look back at photos. I prefer the older, slightly deeper brown leather versions of both bags, but that's my personal preference.
If you're new to luxury fashion or unsure of yourself, great basics are never something you'll regret. These bags quickly elevate an entire look.
Why They're Worth Investing In
Investing in a Louis Vuitton bag is not just about owning a luxury item; it’s about adding pieces to your wardrobe that are timeless and retain their value. Both the GM Noé and the Neverfull bags are classic silhouettes that are sure to stand the test of time, providing style and functionality for years to come. Plus, iconic labels like Louis Vuitton are known for their quality craftsmanship, ensuring that your investment is worth every penny.
Recently, the leather used to make these bags is a light, creamy shade instead of the original warm brown.
Whether you're drawn to the unique charm of the GM Noé or the everyday practicality of the Neverfull, these bags are more than just fashion accessories; they are statements of style and sophistication worthy of any collection.
