I HATE SLGs, but THESE are 100% worth it right now (all £260 +)

- Ok, ok - you know I don’t like luxury SLGs! Well, it’s not that I “don’t” like them, it’s more that wallets and purses can get scruffy and worn very quickly when you’re using them a lot for cards and cash etc. I’d always prefer to put the money towards something like a bag. But anyway -
Since the pandemic, the designer handbags I use have changed overnight. The larger bags I don’t use as I’m not going out too often. When I do go out, it’s to pop to the local grocery shop etc. I bought a Gucci cosmetics pouch in June and I’m stunned and how it’s been my go-to item when I’m leaving the house. I especially love the Gucci as the canvas means I can wipe it clean.
So, here are my thoughts on the BEST designer / luxury pouches / cases to buy.

Chanel pricing has become ridiculous really, to the point of I just roll my eyes. Another price increase this week 🤦🏻♀️ The small classic flap now being £5,040 is silly imo. Saint Laurent quality is brilliant for the price and I have the same pouch and the Loulou Toy and really love them ☺️ I have never purchased the LV cosmetic pouch and I don’t even know why as I really like it! Think I need to put it on a wish list as think I forget about it...
I think Chanel is trying to price itself out of the masses... they may want to make the brang more exclusive. Like Lacoste in the 90s.
@@ailicrew yep agree and their prerogative to do so but I just can’t help but find it quite cheeky how steeply and regular their price increases have been :)
In my opinion Saint Laurent bags are wayyy better than the Chanel ones! They are classy but not tacky!
As a small bag kind of girl, I LOVE SLGs and how versatile they can be! So many toiletries/pouches double as bags (with an insert/chain/etc) and I love it because I don't need a large purse and don't want to spend the money on one! Love your videos always Sophie!
Chanel is pricing themselves out completely. Yet nowhere near close to Hermès quality.
I really like YSL for pouches. Because they really can pass as clutches.
Agree.
Totally agree ..
I respect Saint Laurent for not floating instagram and influencers with their items, speaking of the dior bobby or LV pont neuf
The YSL pouch is the quality item in my opinion.
Agreed!! You get a lot for the money with YSL! Xx
Yeah, definitely! Also really loved the LV toiletries pouch - simple clean lines with the classic print, a very reasonable price tag - and now that small bags, 90's bags are in, put a chain on that and you're good to go, lol!
@@SophieShohetOfficial Hi Sophie, hope not too strange to write in comments like this but I just DM you but I know they tend get buried. Just ordered a gift last night from UK to Ireland and delivery was nearly free for you but triple the price for us. Ever experience this? Love to see a video about delivery prices and how to get free shipping etc!
I'm just so over Chanel these days, they keep hiking up their prices during the pandemic and the quality doesn't get any better. I am such a Dior fan however though, their customer service and experience is always so good. 💖
Chanel’s quality is going way down and the prices are almost Hermès level and the quality. Ain’t there
I’ve never been a fan of turning a vanity case or toiletry pouches into bags, but it’s good there’s that added versatility! I’m all for getting the cost per wear down on a product - particular luxury products! 😊
Samorga makes insets for the LV toiletry pouches 15,19,26 that have little circle hooks on the ends. Not only does it keep toiletry organized, and clean but you instantly can hook on a chain/ strap of any kind and have a cute bag! I love mine for my 15 and 19! Super affordable too! BUT make sure to choose the size option WITH the added circle loop option they have ones without (the original style).
Wow, thank you for this comment.. good to know and off to the Samorga website I go!! Lol
There are all kinds of inserts for LV on AliExpress and amazon as well. Really nice quality and affordable . I bought inserts for my Neverfull, speedy and toiletry pouch 26 there.
I honestly am not that interested in SLGs, I just need a few that matches with all my purses and boom I’m done with shopping. I prefer saving a few hundred more to getting an actual handbag rather than spending it all on SLGs. I also dislike the recent mini bag trends/ wallet-on-chain bags. Not very practical IMO.
Literally remember you talking about the gucci cosmetic case and how you use it to just run into a store so I got one last week but the blooms collection one. Can't wait to start using it.
I have the Gucci cosmetic case in the Bloom edition, and I never thought to use it as a clutch, that’s brilliant! I love YSL, I am drawn to that house more now than Louis Vuitton.
I'm so excited for the Christmas season because that means Christmas with the Shohets!!
Thank you for the video Sophie!
I bought the LV cosmetic pouch in august, they had the toiletry pouch as well but I like the shape of the cosmetic pouch a lot better and the way that the zipper is 'tucked in'. I haven't used it yet because I rarely go out but I'm sure I'll use it a lot in the future and it will last a long time 😊
That jacket is the perfect light blue, it's so pretty 💖
Thanks Sophie, now I want all the small SLG’s! Whenever you show that small Gucci pouch my wallet starts crying! 😍
Thanks for sharing Sophie. I love your channel because you think of all of your followers. Not only those that can afford the expensive goods. Stay safe.
I’ve just purchased the Louis Vuitton kirigami pochette in monogram and I think it deffo belongs on this list! 3 items for the price of one and all so functional. Plus the big one can be converted into a cross body with a conversion kit. I’m in love!
I bought a Celine wallet last year for around $900. It still looks perfect. I have 2 small Goyard zip bags that I put inside my larger handbags. So useful and probably 3 years old. Still in great shape. I love SLGs. It is a cheerful little luxury to me.👝
Can’t beat goyard in my opinion
I also picked up the Ophidia cosmetics case as a “throw in” for my bag! Most of the time I’m carrying a bucket to/from work and they can get so messy with never ending items piled in. It’s a great way to keep things neat and keep my lining protected and such a fab everyday item for the price
Hello Daisy! I’m with you, it’s so handy, either as a pouch to run errands on, or as a bag organiser 👍🏽xx
I bought a card holder from Chanel a few years ago. I still buy their perfumes, but no more leather goods. In my head, I just cannot get around the price. But I still enjoy seeing others buying from them. Thank you for the video.
I bought the LV cosmetic pouch earlier in the year and I use it every single day. It fits in my YSL camera bag perfectly along with my YSL fragments card holder, and sometimes I just empty the card holder and put everything in the pouch. Couldn't recommend it enough!!!
There were some good buys there Sophie, I think Chanel is more in price line of Hermes these days they just seem way to expensive. But thank you for sharing your finds and thoughts xx
Very useful video for the current times. The Gucci cosmetics case is pretty. Wonderful idea to give a less expensive yet quite nice pouch if short on $. Thank you! I always enjoy your videos 😊
My number one most used item for the past 7 months has been my LV pochette accessoires - £450 when it's available. A fabulous budget pouch is the Coach wristlet. £60 for pebbled leather, really spacious and good colour choices.
I own the LV pouch and it’s so convenient to switch bags with your makeup in one bag.
I love your videos especially ones like this!
That Gucci pouch had made a few appearances now in videos and each time it makes me want it more! I have both the LV cosmetic and the toiletry 19 and the 19 is better for sure. I highly recommend it!
Hi Sophie, love your videos would love to see more financial and general advice videos. I find them really helpful !!!! :)
Another brand I’ve been loving is Longchamp! They have some very well priced pouches and cases that I’ve been using nonstop when I do go out.
I LOVE that Gucci bag you showing in the beginning I’m going to try and add that to my shop tagr 😍😍😍
Funny you say as I’ve been adding to my shoptagr this week in prep for cyber weekend 👍🏽😂👏🏽xx
Ooo these are such good ideas for xmas gifts!
I have the LV toiletries bag and find it to be just the right size for my handbags. It holds all of my daily out and about essentials. Love it!
It is a handy size Issi!xx
After seeing the lv pouch you just showed it appears I have unknowingly been using a bulgari toiletry pouch as a clutch for years. Happy to find out I am fashion forward 😉
Love your videos always looking so forward to it 😍😍 do you think You could put a chain on the Gucci makeup bag to make it a bag ?? Xx
Love the video Sophie. It seems like more people are enjoying the SLGs because we are so limited as to where we can go. I am loving smaller/mid size purse/bags because the only places I have been going to is the grocery store and Home Depot.🤣. Just wanted to share this to the other viewers, you can take the LV cosmetic pouch (GM or PM) into to a purse. I saw a video on youtube and made mines into a purse. Just add some D-rings from Amazon into the outer corner flap and add a strap. I added a chunky gold chain I got online and it's so pretty. ❤️
OMG I LOVE YOUR JACKET!!! 😍
I have the Dior oblique beauty case, a LV cosmetic case, Gucci cosmetic case, Gucci vanity case and the Fendi terrycloth beauty pouch in pink. I LOVE designer pouches. I just use them as catch all’s in my tote bags.
please can you do a video on designer purses and your fav ones. love your videos btw!
I bought that LV cosmetic pouch ( my first LV purchase) back in '99. I use it all the time and it's aged beautifully. Quality was amazing back then!
I love my LV Emreinte Key pouch and clemence wallet. Use it always and ever as well as my LV cosmetic pouch in vernis leather. Absolutely worth the money and all my products fit in. Not sure about the price nowadays but definitely worth the money. Love your videos you inspired me to start my fragrance related CZcams channel. 💗🎀💗
YSL has great quality. I just got the WOC and so impressed with how well constructed it is. I love it, but I’m hoping they come up with more style have an understated logo maybe. Chanel prices are ridiculous right now, but I do recommend the small card holder. It replaced my full sized wallet. It may seem expensive, but it actually fully fits everything I need for a wallet and I can fit it in all sizes bags.
I have a YSL cardholder with a flap/mini wallet which I love and look after because there isn’t anything like it at my normal price point - The Bridge, Coach, Mulberry & so forth, but it does live in an unbranded catchall alongside a diary, couple of pens etc, in a tote.
My favourite is The Bridge tote and I also have a Cambridge satchel. Very practical.
I find LV canvas accessories really practical. I personally like to use LV SLGs because I know they can get tossed around in my bags and not have to worry about them!
Great video Sophie ! Stay safe and take care 😊
Hugs to you my friend!xx
that versace jacket is really beautiful & flattering on you
Thank you for being reasonable not just selling stuff just coz
Love and Blessings to you both ♥️
Stay Healthy , Strong and Safe.
Love from Niagara Falls 🇺🇸
Hi Sophie, hope you have had a good weekend. I'm currently snuggled up on the sofa with the fire on....bliss. I don't have any luxury brand SLGs, I wouldn't treat them properly and most pouche type bags are too small for me. (Though the YSL could tempt me). Do love a logo belt though!
That image of being on a cosy sofa with a fire going is giving me all the feels ☺️ weather here has turned REALLY Autumnal, wind and rain!xx
Hello Sophie, the Fendi one you showed, yes it is part of the California Sky collection 🌞
I would recommend looking at the Prada leather trimmed shell cosmetics pouch as a bucket bag option! Richelle on CZcams recommended this one and it turned out to be a great "covid bag" for me since it's mostly nylon. I got a chain strap to attach to the grommets on each side and it's been SUCH a fun option. The price is really good too...something like 270 pounds, I believe?
very nice! also, when I run into a store, I'm often just carrying my credit card. I'm in and OUT. I found I can put a nice cosmetic bag in my lockable glove box. It really works well, I have my STUFF, but don't have to carry a whole bag into a store.
I really like the your jacket, so stylist! I don't have any SLGs but I kind of like the YSL one!
I have the Gucci pouch and I love it! I saw the LV Toiletry 26 on the site yesterday and almost caved. Its a hard to find item but I have seen it more frequently than usual, so next time I might purchase!
I actually use my phone a lot now! In Australia, my phone has apple pay for my cards and all my loyalty cards are electronic so I don't need a purse/wallet. I have a chanel card holder that I bought a while ago and it has gotten scruffy... the edges are getting a bit worn. I don't actually need a purse. I do have a bag; only one bag that I carry around and it's small. Most other times, I'll have a shopping bag as I don't have a car so I have to be practical (small bagpack or shopping bag). I have considered buying a keyholder but realised that my current keys are fine and if I buy one, it will weigh more (and cost a lot!). With covid and the fact that I hardly go out, I don't really need a fancy bag anymore. I still like looking and admiring but I can't justify the cost!!! We are opening up in Aust as our covid transmission rates are low and we have virtually no new cases so I have seen people going out and dressing up but since I don't actually get invited anywhere or go out much with friends (I'm always alone), I have no reason to dress up. I still admire lovely things though!
You are living in " a lucky country" regarding Covid . I'm from France and I'm dreaming about a day without a mask while walking down the street .
Great video, I love the gents SLG's myself
Wow! Im first! Hi Sophie from the US, love you content!
Yay, Sunday afternoon, cup of tea and Sophie xxx
Enjoy your tea Heather!xx
I like the LV mini pochette accessoire as a catch all
This was a great video😍
I too have been using vanity cases/toiletry pouch during this time.
Very handy!xx
I vouch for YSL so much! I love the feeling of Chanel lambskin, but it's not worth the price for something so delicate that I can't comfortably utilize.
SLGs are good as gifts for people who I know love their designer goods. Practical and the designs are usually classic. The Fendi cosmetic bag looks good (might get it for a gift) and I agree, the YSL one is great for an evening out
I have vowed to stay away from lighter colours and slg's with zippers - those wear out so much easier. I bought a full leather wallet from Coach that I used to death. The zipper broke less than a year after I purchased it (sent it back for repair - darn thing broke again 6 months later) and it is so dirty it looks like it was run over (I have SCRUBBED it to get it clean to no avail).
As long as you don't try to overstuff them, slg's can be really nice.
Happy Autumn, Sophie!
Watching this video I just realised I haven't bought a bag this year - wow. I was about to buy a tote for uni in February (thanks to Sophie and her incredibly cute Dior tote), but I decided to wait because I had spent a lot on things for school, then... well we all know what happened. Since then, the few times I have hit the shops I've barely glanced at the bags, just card holders and cosmetic cases. So weird! Can totally relate to this video, haha.
I got the YSL mini Lou Lou based off your recommendation and managed to score it for £695 from Heathrow, such brilliant quality and I use it a ton! I adore this brand so much xxx
I’m so glad that you like it, and that you got such a good deal! I love YSL bags xx
I love YSL out of all the higher end, they're definitely my favourate brand. And for work, you can't beat Michael Kors
There are some bag organizers on Amazon that you can buy and put in LV toiletry then attach your own chain or your other LV straps on it.
please do Christmas gift guides this year
Yay! Just in time for my first coffee of the day!
Have a great day my love!xx
I have bought the Gucci pouch on your recommendation and I can’t believe how much it holds. Really a great buy and a versatile piece. Thanks and really enjoy your content
Can you give examples of what you use it for please?
@@Wendyx2000 I took it with me on a staycation at lunch and dinner as a small clutch and even to run errands as I can dress it up or down and it’s small . I’m not using it as a makeup bag.
Ysl products are so good value all the time. The quality is good the price is awesome plus discount code always available online somewhere 👍🏻
I feel more and more detached from Chanel, while YSL is getting my appreciation, their lines are so elegant and yet modern, they're gonna be my next purchase, though right now Covid is holding me back a lot.
I looove your nail color! Gonna paint mine the same hahah
Hi Sophie! I recall you had the Saint Laurent Cassandra top handle as well - I absolutely desire it along with the Celine Luggage Nano and wondered if you still had it and like it?! Many thanks! :D xo
Sophie that Versace jacket is lovely !! The Chanel SLG prices are insane ... and I need a new card holder. The Senreve bag came with a bonus card case but it doesn’t hold what my Chanel card holder does. Any suggestions ?? BTW for anyone missing Karl Lagerfeld ... I stumbled upon his line ... not sure who designs or manages it but total Chanel vibes at inexpensive prices ... lots of cute things for all ages.
I liked all of these, particularly the LV toiletry case and the Dior. I do need to convert the prices to USD, but the prices seem great in pounds.
I do really like SLGs but I am not the sort of person who has 20 card holders. That’s silly. I only have one of each of the items I like to use every day. But there is no need to spend huge amounts of money on them. Brands like Aspinal Of London, Longchamp, Kate Spade and Oroton have some beautiful ones for far than the high end brands and they are even less again preloved.
I purchased the LV Toiletry pouch... the 26 size on a resale site. I love it, and purchased an insert on etsy which allows you to use a strap for shoulder or cross body use.
Do you have a link?
Congrats on your purchase! I have become VERRRRRY addicted to preloved sites, wow you can get some serious deals 😳xxx
@@SophieShohetOfficial they are very addictive!! It's funny, I bought the toiletry bag to use as a clutch/crossbody when I travel, but it is the perfect size to use when I have to run errands.
Oh my goodness I’ve been missing your videos even though my bell is on… I miss you very much and now I’m just gonna binge watch it’s like 3:55 AM in the morning… But about Chanel it is becoming overwhelming but the price increases
Sophie, the LV Pochette Accessoires New Model is impossible to get right now, same with the mini pochette accessoires and the key pouch! I have no idea what is going on with this craziness!
I find that I am using my WOCS mostly as they hold phone, keys, balm plus COVID-19 essentials
I can absolutely imagine that those have come into their own in these times!xx
I love my WOC, look great with jeans and when running out in shorts and trainers to the store. They also match the interior of the RR as well as the 911 woohoo Ladies who live their cars
Can you please review the Gucci marmont cosmetic case. I cant find pictures with anyone even holding it anywhere.
Hi Sophie. Have you seen the New fantastic Dior pooch with the lipsticks. Xx
I LOVE your channel so much! What do you think of the dior mini saddle bag, I want to save up for it but its SO MUCH MONEY :(
what smallish bag would you recommend?
Exactly for this reason I only have a LV 6 keys holder which is fantastic and a mini pochette, love them both. But you´d better put that money towards a bag... I was about to comment on that Lady Dior that´s behind you on your last video - I honestly wasn´t sure if it´s a real thing or some kind of promotion present you were given, it is sooo cute! I must have missed a video where you were talking about it but it is absolutely adorable! :-)
Yes I was distracted by it too! It's way too mini to be a mini so I was also thinking along the lines of a display ornament? I wish I knew too!
@@angelaroxette5371 right??!! ;-)
I really do love the channel designs, I just feel their prices are going way out of reach now. You can get something just as well made for a fraction of the price.💗
What do you think of the mini backpacks and belt bags?
LV Nice is a good option as well the nano is under 500 x
Im glad i got my chanel coin purse when i did. I think they have gone up over $100 on the website in the last few year's. I get why they do it, but its just absurd now. I also got a YSL cardholder and it is SO HANDY!! i really love it. I regret not buying it earlier cause it went up in price too 😅 im definitely done for slgs now. It will be a bag or nothing next i think. Slgs are just too expensive 😫
What do you use in your bags for a wallet, cosmetic bag? What brand?
Hello Sophie can you compare LadyDior Mini vs Hermès TPM? Which one will you keep? And which one you will let go?
Just wondering what you think of the YSL monogram clutch? It’s 545€ and looks really like the monogram wallet on the chain, there’s also conversion kits for it to add a chain- but it also looks great as a normal clutch and wristlet! 😌 would love to know your opinion
I’ll need a bag to hold the Gucci ophidia case .....any ideas ? I know it won’t fit in my small Jackie 1961 nor in my soho disco
The LV vanity bag is curved like an Alma, it takes more workmanship to make it than a straight-lined bag. Same with the Dior; it's curved. This is reflected in the price.
Hey Sophie I just wanted to ask your views on the LV Keepall Bandouliere 45, I'm thinking of getting it in the Monogram Macassar and would really like your advice, as to whether I should get it or not and if it's worth the money (£1400)
Hi Sophie. Than you so much for your lovely videos❤️.
I was wondering: you suggested in a your videos regarding SLGs to save your money and instead get a bag later. But if I do that, won't that leave me with a bag but nothing to hold money, change, and cards? I know you suggest pouches, and maybe using the inner pockets of the bag may be an idea?
I just feel like without a wallet, things will be flying around in the bag or pouch😂💔
Just some thoughts I had, would love to know your opinions.
Thanks again Sophie❤️💕
Aspinal of London has some great leather cosmetic pouches at great prices
Small coated canvas goods = SCCGs 😆😆😆
That’s funny 🤣🤣
” - it’s kind of average, isn’t it” - Looooove that last comment! 👍🏻
I find my SLGs the best money I've spent. esp the LV 6 key. Sometimes that's all I take out with me. Sometimes its just the 6 key and my mono eclipse card holder. I still use my pochette accessoire as well. Chanel is trying to be Hermes without the quality, amazing workmanship and beautiful leathers. They are failing.
