- I'm guessing I don't need to tell you this was not gifted and this video is unsponsored. I saw quite a few of these bags gifted about two years ago, and I was curious to try it for myself. To be honest, I see the value in gifted content. It's great for spreading the word and giving new brands/items much needed attention at a lower marketing budget. However, I would be fibbing if I didn't say heavily gifted content turns me off - just a bit. There is ALWAYS a con to every bag. This one is obviously capacity. I just don't mind carrying that little. I would guess this leather easily scratches since it's so smooth, but mine has no wear and tear. I wore it about 10-15 times in 2020 since lockdown.
Edit - I have a Google phone... I think I used to have a Galaxy. Can you tell I don't know phones?
$2,300

Outer Dimensions - 20 x 14 x 4.5 cm - 7.9 x 5.5 x 1.7''
My rough internal dimensions - 14.5 x 12 x 3.5 cm
Note it's only 14.5 at the far front and back of the bag because the sides dip in. This is where I put my phone. The sides dip in making it roughly 13cm long in the middle
Strap drop 51cm to 58cm
I'm 5'5 and I love this crossbody length, but the adjustment makes it work for someone taller!

Thanks for the detailed review! I've never seen this bag in person but always heard Lydia Millen raving about it. I like what you said about Bvlgari making this bag with as much love and expertise as they do with their jewelry. I'm very intrigued now!💕
Thanks for watching! Let me know if you do check it out in person! I would be curious to hear if/how it works for you 😊
I came here because I really want this bag, thinking of buying it. Good review, get yourself a card holder 😍❤️😁
Haha yes, I need to! I haven't decided which one yet. Thanks for watching. Hope this helped!
❤ Bag is important
Love this bag 🤩😍
Thank you! ❤️
I love Boston, I do not live in Massachusetts and am familiar with Newbury Street. I think waiving to passerby is a great gesture that would pull me into the stores. It would give me the feeling of a nice and friendly environment.
They were very friendly in the store which made for a fantastic first experience!
This was a really comprehensive review, I agree Bvlgari service is amazing, I have a few fine jewellery pieces.. although their prices have gone crazy of late which makes me think they are looking to be a cartier style label sadly... This bag is beautiful, I'd like to add one to my collection, perhaps a squattier version ha ha, if that's a thing! send me a message to remind me to send you the iphone measures for a plus size :)
Haha they've come out with a few variations of this bag recently. I'm sure one could be described as squattier! I'm tempted by the mini version, which is a litter longer, two internal compartments, and shorter, but it's currently only made in bright patent purple or pink. Oh, I hope not! I've been working up the courage to buy a pair of earrings for a year now, and I would love to get it before they price out!
Great review video, thanks for sharing 💕I am your new subscriber. :)
Thank you so much!
Great video. I totally share your sentiments about the whole Chanel fiasco. I own at least 10 classic flaps and I’m considering selling at least 8 for more understated bags such as this. Thanks for this review as it’s just what I needed. By the way, do you know if this bag comes in one size larger.
Thanks so much for watching! I love my Chanel bags, but I definitely enjoy the variety. They have a shoulder bag version which is much larger. They also just came out with something similar to this size but with two compartments instead of one.
TrainGirl.inMotion Thanks so for your response. I checked out their website and I am really considering purchasing a red and green one. Your video about what I can buy for the price of one Chanel really inspired me to curate my bag collection. In addition, I really like smaller understated bags as I’m getting older. Chanel is too mainstream and sometimes I worry so much about carrying such a noticeable bag. My only guilt to selling them would be that my husband purchased the majority of them for me, so there is a sentimental value associated with them.
@@DoingMe686 I hope you enjoy it if you pick one up! I'm considering getting another, but I haven't decided on the size. I was becoming so accustomed to seeing Chanel prices, it was easy to forget other beautiful luxury bags are 1/3 of the price. I completely understand. It's understandable that you would want to keep gifts from your husband 😊You'll know what's best for you. I like having a few standout pieces, but mostly wear more understated bags. They can still be really beautiful even if most people can't recognize the designer.
Does it fit an iPhone 12/13 max inside the bag?
Unlikely, but I don't know. I have dimensions in the description box if you have a measuring tape. The inside is roughly 14.5cm, but my phone barely fits.
hello, do you find the leather fragile, which scratches quickly?
Thank you 😊
Yes, the leather is more fragile and susceptible to scratches. I've been able to totally avoid scratches so far. It did begin to leave permanent wrinkles across the top, but moisturizing the bag helped.
It's a beautiful bag, but definitely on the delicate side. I'll have an updated video on it within 2 weeks 😊
@@traingirl.meghan great, thank you ! the side side of the bag or the top side of the bag? because I hesitate with the new version of the forever with the golden metal edges and the forever diamond blast :) I have to decide quickly because these are the last pieces,
thank you ♥️
I can't wait to see your video 🙋🏻♀️
@@coeurdesucette top side of the bag, along where it wrinkles when you open it. No wear anywhere else yet 😊
Thanks!
@@traingirl.meghan you moisturize it? I know they are a cleaning and repair service
@@coeurdesucette there are definitely people who know a lot more about this than me, but I used a leather moisturizer along the top so the leather wouldn't crack where it was wrinkling. It seemed to minimize the look of the wrinkles
can we order this from website?
Yes, the US site allows you to order and ship this bag. I have a link in the description box 😊
