    Please excuse spelling, pros and cons of Bijou vs Token, please....maybe, Token being longer, has a bigger zipper opening so maybe, easier to get items in and out of the Token ?

    • @CarolenGrayToday
      @CarolenGrayToday День тому

      soooo I actually just sold ALL my bijous because doing this video showed me that the token carries the same stuff I carry in my bijou it is just more slim lined which I prefer doe my smaller bag carries these days. Without the extra bulkiness of the bijou booty, the token slips in and out of slip pockets much easier for me and everything that Im going to carry in either the bijou OR the token was in it already so there was no reason for me to keep the bijous AND token. Make sense? weight wise it wasn't much different except accounting for different leather weights but they're both pretty small so it wasn't enough to actually weigh.

    Thorough, excellent review! Thank you for weighing the bag, it's dimensions and what does and won't fit. Some leathers, especially, some of the saddle leathers seem to be strongly scented. Your empathy towards migraines triggered by strong scents and the tips to get rid of the strong scents are greatly appreciated, Carolen!🎉

      So glad it can help! Im kind of bummed they're not offering this on the website anymore since I had this video ready to go for yall however they may bring it back at some point. Sometimes they take things down to revamp it or perfect it and sometimes they take it down bc it isnt selling like they thought but either way you can find them on BST! I have found that if you love it , you LOVE it! Im glad all the info can help! I have had many people ask about smell of the leather and I really didnt understand what they meant until this came in to my house! Thankfully I did get it out (i do not sell it at all anymore whereas before my whole room smelled like it when left in here for a while without charcoal bags!) Anywho thanks for watching and commenting! 🥰❤

    Why would God make America free if it means people don't have to follow a religion where he exists? Freedom of religion makes him less popular and should be the opposite of what he wants.

    • @CarolenGrayToday
      @CarolenGrayToday 8 днів тому

      THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION!!! God does not force us to choose him. He allows us to have that freedom of choice knowing that some will choose him and others won't. It breaks his heart that people choose not to follow. Being forced to 'choose' or 'love' someone is not love at all. ❤ 'May the LORD bless you and protect you.

      Yeah the hardware felt a little cheap for the price point- not the studs on the front those are solid. It’s the cheap sound and feel of the clasp for the strap. In the end I just couldn’t hold hardware 😂with the louder red - it was all too much a stretch for me 😂🤣

    Yes!!! I was actually looking at that DUYP purse as well for the same reason: the silver hardware. Decided against it bc I just don’t love the split interior… 🫤 It looks gorgeous on you, though!!

      I TOTALLY GET THAT! In the past I didn't love the split interior but as I have downsized what I carry on the everyday I've enjoyed the organization that has come with the split interior for me. 😀Thanks for watching and commenting and keep an eye out for my giveaway coming out in the next month or so! 😊

    Hi I just wanted to suggest trying something to get the bubbles out of your new canvas backpack. If you iron it with towel laying over the bag to protect it I may warm up the adhesive and let it flatten out. I'd be careful not to let it get too hot but if you really like the bag and it really bothers you it might be worth trying that method.

    • @CarolenGrayToday
      @CarolenGrayToday 17 днів тому

      Thanks Im always open to suggestions especially great smart ones like this! I don't know if you got to the part where I talked about someone online on the purse forum saying they did this and the bubbles returned later on. :-( Its ok though and again super appreciate your suggestion! I have it up for sale on mercari and poshmark now as I really didnt love it being backpack only mode - ive gotten spoiled with my 3 way carry bags by Rough & Tumble :-p

      I mean it just makes sense doesn't it?!?! I really love it on the small and I have been debating doing it to my medium... not my large though its too big to carry crossbody + it shoulder carries really well! Thanks for watching and commenting! 🥰

      @@CarolenGrayToday I have a custom xs one that came with a cross body strap so I punched holes in the tabs on the sides already. I had purchased grommets from JoAnns but they are impossible to install so I'm waiting on that kit from Amazon. Like seriously Longchamp, you make the xs like this already so why not the small? 😂

    @WellBehavedWallet 19 днів тому

    Ahhhh I see what you mean. But I wouldn't have even noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. I do love the look of the grommet crossbody, as opposed to the asymetrical carry w the D-rings. Super helpful video! The bag looks great!

    • @CarolenGrayToday
      @CarolenGrayToday 19 днів тому

      that's true but its the internet - someone would watch this and just wouldn't be able to WAIT to tell me how I did it wrong. They probably still will hahaha but thats alright, I choose to put it out there! Yes the asymmetrical carry is something that bothers me in bags (for me) and thus I prefer the grommet carry! But ultimately dealers choice right!? 🙂 Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙏🏼

      ohhh i bet that color is SO beautiful!!! Ive got to google it now to see it! Definitely try GOOD sea salt in it like himalayan or celtic! (celtic is my choice!) I carry some in my purse now in case we grab coffee out bc if its bitter at all or the taste is just off (think diner coffee) it makes it so much smoother tasting! Thanks for watching and commenting! Going to look up that color now! 😀🙂

    I have had a couple of bags that had very strongly scented leathers, both made in the USA and both in the Saddle category. I've been airing them outside- every day for well over a month,( brought them inside before rain and brought in every night )and STILL the scents remained. I have two bags from another company and same strong chemical/ leather scents. Both have a chemical scent to their leathers, even the Horween and Bison! Your gathering ,research and relaying information of : leather, bag sizes and weight measurements really helps, Carolen!!! The new to me bag I got is an extra small- approx 10x 10 x 5. The Pure Saddle leather in this, new to me bag is not heavily scented but the Pure Saddle leather in my Kirigami had a very,very, strong scent! Luck of the draw, I guess! For me, those strong chemical/ leather scents easily trigger a long lasting, rotten migraine. Carolen, thank you so much for your videos and quick responses to my questions,too!!😊🎉😊🎉😊

    • @CarolenGrayToday
      @CarolenGrayToday 22 дні тому

      ugggh migraines are the worst! I wish the chemical smell was disclosed but I dont know how they would do that with each run of the hide- now on BST it SHOULD be disclosed and I need to remember to ask that! LOL Thankfully it's dissipating really well on mine and I hope yours all do as well! Thanks for watching and commenting! :-)

  • @troutcreek121

      YAYYYYY!!!!! Glad it could help!!! I got a twin carry in rodeo brown in the BST groups and when I got it, it had a strong chemical smell NOT mentioned by the seller. I put it in a bag full of charcoal bags and let it sit for a month. The smell is WAAAAYYYYY lessened and almost gone. BUT I saw someone else selling the same thing so I messaged her to ask if hers had a chemical amell and she said no it didn't. So sometimes the same leathers can be very different - OR her nose didnt pick up on it. Its so hard to tell people solid yes/no's bc of experiences like this - BUT Im SOOOOOO glad it worked out for you! What bag did you get!?
