Saggy bottoms, snagged hair, and scratches- true luxury experience with that Chanel boy bag 😜 only need to pay couple thousand for it too
Love 💕 my small boy bag.
I’m lucky enough not to have chain issues and I’m not precious about a “saggy bottom”. That’s the beauty of the bag 🥰
The saggy bottom is easily fixed with a base shaper and thankfully the hair thing has never happened for me. The Gucci 1955 Horsebit bag literally rips some of my hair out each time I use it though, so I know how annoying it can be.
Couple thousand? How about 5 😝
You know what really rips my hair out and has been for the past six years has been my Louis Vuitton speedy 25 the bandolier version god almighty that bag every time I wear the buckles in the back when it’s crossbody it always yanks out my hair if my hair is down I’m sure I’ve lost half my hair because of this bag 😂😂 petition for Louis Vuitton to change the buckles
Ugh the more I learn about Chanel the less inclined I am to ever buy from them. Definitely not after these insane price increases
When I was at the Chanel store in Paris the SA was pushing the boy bag. I mentioned some of the annoying flaws Sophie has mentioned before and the SA was highly offended. He literally blamed any flaws on the bag owner not caring for a bag properly.
The SA is wrong 🤔 I have the Chanel Boy Bag and I love it❤️🙈😅
@@oracien9858 What year did you buy yours? I’m wondering if the newer ones don’t have the same issue that Sophie’s has.
I agree with the SA. They’re only “flaws” to some who don’t know how to use the bag.
I love 💕 my small boy bag. I don’t have chain issues and I’m not precious about a “saggy bottom”. That’s the beauty of the bag 🥰
@Mariel Ang commenting “everywhere” ⁉️
Wind your neck in … I made *one comment* in the main body and one reacting to this comment.
Did they remove the dislike 👎🏾 button because of you too 🙄
LOL! "It's not ME, it's YOU!"
The entire point of the Falabella tote (Stella McCartney) is that it’s meant to be slouchy. Like that one is literally called the fold over
Yes, the larger tote is less slouchy, especially with items in it. It comes with a wallet on a chain inside so I keep my most-used cards in there and who doesn't use their phone to pay anymore these days? There is a phone holder in there too!
Love mine but use an insert as prefer a bit of structure
Honest to god if you take some Coach Leather Cleaner and then the Coach Leather Moisturizer to that scratch on your boy bag it will come right out! I work for coach and some of these customers and their long nails 🙄 its like a death sentence to some bags but hey the Cleaner and Moisturizer works so well. I swear by it. I use it on my Louis, Dior, and Chanel bags and it works like magic.
Hey fellow Coach employee :)
I have four Stella McCartney Falabellas and i love ALL of them, for different reasons. granted- most of them are tiny/mini bags so i don't have issues with structure/ sagging much, but i do have a taupe foldover and basically everything you said is true, especially for the bigger falabellas- the noise, and weird shapelessness, heavy chain issues (actually mine is due for repair because the stupid chain broke, literally, i feel like the heaviness of the bag works against itself), but i originally got this bag to use it as an oversize clutch/ pillow/ cuddle buddy because I love that look- it's like pre-cloud bag
I simply adore how you handle your bags as mother handles her children. For some those would be "just bags". And you are the example how bags are so much more: daily companions, investments and objects of pride and love. ❤ You are always classy, kind and simply fabulous. It's such joy to watch your videos and learn from your knowledge and experience.
I bought a Balenciaga City bag recently. Mock croc. The quality of the leather, zip, lining and bright yellow gold hardware was shockingingly bad! I returned it immediately. I then bought an Aspinal of London bag at a quarter of the price, and the quality is ten times better!! Lovely leather and finishing, champagne gold hardware. Great zip etc.
Balenciaga City, my favorite! Perfect !
As always I really enjoyed watching and learning. Thanks!
The Stella McCartney bag may look better in real life but on camera i thought it looked a tad like something from a market stall.
The thing is love, when you love a bag so much youd would use it, undermining the bad trait on how inconvenience the bag was despite knowing that. HOWEVER, once you found a great bag potentially could replace that bag, you can give 1001 reasons how the former bag is not worth it.
Laughing my head off at "I don't wanna do that to myself" and nobbly bits wrap the hair lol
You know you can always rely on Sophie to try them out and give her honest reviews for us!! 😂❤️❤️ love you Sophie! Some of us (me included) really have to save up for quite some time to get one of these bags so it’s really really helpful to see if it’s any good to purchase them. Thank you so much!
This is such an entertaining video, did you ever try to sell the “bad” bags and if not, why?
I had a Stella McCartney in my Farfetch Wishlist, so thank you!! Such a shame about the boy, it really does look lovely on
I have a recent model and I feel like they might have fixed the noise issue because I don't have that problem. I does look saggy when empty though, it's a good everyday bag for someone who brings a lot of stuff with them.
@@FilAlexa I love my ” old” Boy Bag too😍👍🏽 It looks great ❤️❤️❤️
I have a small boy (equivalent to the mini classic flap size) and love it! The different size and strap drop help avoid the saggy bottom. My hair occasionally does tangle, but I find it does with other chain straps. As for corner wear, the newer versions is caviar are a bit hardier. I wouldn't recommend getting it in lamb. Also got mine in ruthenium back in 2016 and haven't noticed any issues with the hardware.
I bought Stella’s small Falabella that I got from Farfetch this year and don’t have the sound/noise at all. 99% of the time I keep the longer strap/chain inside the bag (which I guess would make some noise but I haven’t worn it “outside” the bag) unless I need to free my hands to carry something else, then I wear it crossbody. For me it’s a 10/10 experience.
I always enjoy your videos! Your review of the Alma BB actually helped me make the decision to get it and I was fortunate to find it in the boutique!
I love the Alma, in all and any sizes.
I’m stopping mid video because I will forget what I want to say. I have avoided the Chanel Boy Bag since it’s release… it just never seemed to be a big that grabbed me. I have a number of Chanel bags and my most reached for is my calfskin classic mini/small bag… I really don’t know it’s official name. I’ve had it 10+ years and it’s in perfect condition. I have either the same or a very similar Stella McCartney bag and it’s the heaviest bag I own. I do love it but it’s just ugh to carry. Ok next half of your video! X
I have the boy bag in a blue color, I think calfskin. It does squeeze the bag a bit but I have an organizer in mine so no sag. The chain has never gotten caught in the chain but I do mostly wear my hair up because that’s how I prefer it. So I love my boy amd no corner problems so far. Thanks for this vid Sophie!
Hi Sophie, lovely vid as usual! I went into the local prada boutique about 2 weeks ago, im quite certain that bucket bag is no longer under £1k. I have some bags/slg under men’s line under various brands as they seem better priced and just generally cool looking. Or just more understated designs. Definitely more bag for your money ✌🏼
i'm laughing so hard at the stella mccartney... i only like the mini version of that bag because it has a) the perfect slouchiness and b) isn't loud. my mom has one of the larger ones and you can always hear her coming and she struggles to find anything in it because it's *too* slouchy
I ALMOST bought the Stella McCartney a few years ago. But I immediately noticed the collapsing of the lining and realized how difficult it would be for everyday running around. However...Do you think an organizer would help? I use organizers for my Hermes and a few of my LV's. I wonder if that could be a solution for this bag. I still like it. Thanks Sophie!
I have the smaller version and love it. I do use a large wallet inside which I think helps with keeping the shape. Also, mine isn't metallic like Sophie's so mine doesn't make crinkly sounds.
I love mine. But you could appreciate right away it’s a slouchy bag. It’s the style and look of that design. I have not used an organizer but that’s a good idea to try.
I use an organiser in mine and wear it with the top bit folded over and it makes such a huge difference!
@@sadhbhnishuilleabhain1018 Which size of bag do you have?
@@ayb480 I have a smaller version too and it functions perfectly. Have two 10x10x1,5cm wallets in it…I don’t know why but I have zero issue with sound nor shape of the bag staying as intended. I love it!
"It gets a saggy bottom, and no-one wants a saggy bottom" Im laughing so hard right now. Love it when you show us these videos they are so helpful, I almost bought a boy way back, but when I went into the store if looked cheap (this was when people were telling about the decrease in quality), the bag only looked good as I looked at in the mirror, but my givenchy antigona that I had brought with me that day felt so much more high quality despite the 2000 Euro price difference.
Aw, I love the look of Chanel boy bag, I think more than the classic flap to be honest-regardless of the corners or squishiness/sagginess haha. I'm so indifferent about bucket bags though, I can't tell if I like them or not!
Thank you Sophie. Great advice. You are right, we need to own and use a bag for a while before we can notice all the downsides. It took me years to get there, now I know exactly, which styles are with buying. Happy Holidays.
I have the Bottega Veneta mini Jodie bag in the Grass color and I don't have an issue with the zipper at all. It fits all my essentials and I love it!
Sophie you are the only person i know who can be elegantly funny and cute all at the same time 😂😂😂
Great video! I have never been bothered/complained about my Steel McCartney bag, but do agree the BV bag looks amazing but a hazard to open&close….
I've got the Alma BB and the YSL and while I can also vouch that they are great day bags, I had strap issues with both of them as I'm quite short. I got a cobbler to punch me a few extra holes in the YSL strap and now it's super versatile, and I tend to use an adjustable Coach strap with my Alma if I'm not carrying it top handle.
i loooooooooooooove all my Stella McCartney bags, not only the Falabella, love them all! i do get all the criticism toward the Falabella
When Sophie actually sacrificed her hair for that demo with the boy bag 🥲💕 xx
Another great video! and at the perfect time. I don’t do chain bags because they always tangle my hair; very annoying. Also, clear colored bags tend to get color transfer in spite of any measure to avoid it.
This video is so helpful just this week I gave one of my daughters a pair of Christian Louloutin pumps I paid $750 wore them once they were to narrow in the front couldn’t stand how you see the toe line and I also gave a zipper Louis Vuitton wallet that I paid $950 bought when I traveled to Las Vegas to my other daughter cause I had it in my drawer never used it too hard to get into and also too heavy!
This is the best luxury bag video ever I even watched the commercials to make sure you got paid for it! Very helpful thanks ❤️
Thanks for your thoughts, much appreciated. Have a lovely eve. Keep cosy. See you soon 💖🏴🎄
I second you Sophie on the Lady Dior bag! It is so beautiful and sophisticated looking and it has such great craftsmanship. I also find it very functional and roomy for all of my things.
The Bottega Jodie bag gets better!! When I bought mine I was annoyed with the zipper. But after wearing it around for like 2 weeks straight in Paris. The zipper is now smooth and the bag saggs a bit and looks better too!
Loved how detailed you’re 🙏
Stella McCartney has a terrific vegan line. My daughter who is a vegan has been using her products for years and is extremely happy they have held up well and look great.
Interestingly enough I love my boy bag and haven’t had any of these problems!
Me neither.
Same
Thanks for the info Soph. Love you much!
Great video Sophie! I have found that I love when a bag has an outside pocket for my phone. For this reason I love my Chanel 19 for everyday use. Your birthday earrings look beautiful on you. Sending a big hug from the US. XO
Hi sophie you are so beautiful I hope you and david are well it's so lovely to see you again thanks so much for your very useful vlog stay safe xxx
YSL camera bag is my most used bag love it
The Gabrielle backpack is a bucket bag and can be worn crossbody as well. The structured bottom makes it even better! I think that is always available and defiantly worth considering.❤️
I just got LV pochette metis in black and the quality is amazing. Perfect for everyday cross body bag and under £2000!
I call the Stella bag Rag on Chain. I hate it. I am loving the Saint Laurent bags at the moment. I think there are great quality bags for the money.
This is my all time favourite Sophie video!!!
“Nobody wants a saggy bottom” 🤣🤣🤣you are too funny Sophie! My fav is the YSL camera bag, so pretty🤩
Hahaha I never close my mini Jodie either. But I can’t help how much I love the look 🥰 amazingly entertaining video as per usual 😊
I have a Prada rucksack for when I’m very dressed down. It is the most annoying , impractical bag I have ever used. It looks like a bag that you can use with ease but no…every single time you want to get in or out of it , you have undo the belt buckle (with holes) style fastening and then you have to re-buckle it again or it’s hanging open on your shoulder . Imagine that wherever you’re at a till , getting your phone out , reaching for ANYTHING you need on-the-go … beyond irritating 😂
Oh my gosh! The boy bag strap had me screaming! I really hope they fixed that!
Sophie, I really appreciate this video. I am guilty of not thinking through how the bags will function and hold up! How stupid is that? I think of style, size and color...and that’s it. No more. I did get the mini Jodie already, and like you, I love the style. It was only after I got it home, I saw how the zipper is a pain, and it is hard to get things in and out because the strap is right there on top of the opening. An SA in LV saw me carrying it and asked if it was easy to get in and out of (a little snark?) I looked at her and said, “No! But I still love it.” Yes to bucket bags. I use my LV in damier azul with blue accents all the time.
I love my vintage Louis Vuitton bucket bag😻
I love the bucket bag that is def on my buckets list hee hee . I use a cheap bag in that style so easy to put things in and take out. Thanks for the info.
I went to saxs in Atlanta this past sunday and the cost of the lady diors are insanely expensive over here in the US. Even the mini, it was beautiful and the chain strap felt amazing but when the lady told me the price i was blown away.
Awww I love my bottega mini Jodie and use it all the time. I have no issues with it at all. To be fair, I never carry much stuff and stopped using larger bags ages ago. To each their own I suppose, but I adore it.
I can’t believe you mentioned that white YSL! I have ordered it for Christmas as a bag for my wedding year 🥰
See? So luxury doesn't necessarily mean quality. It's horrible if you think of the price of those bags!
Thank you for a super informative video - I had never considered looking at a bucket bag, I will now! Great suggestions for the other bags too.
Hey! Thanks for the video. I completely agree with you about the boy bag. I sold it almost immediately after purchasing it.
I totally agree with all your commentary and based on your advice i purchased the LV Alma BB this March and is the "my go " daily bag. Wonderful advice Sophie, thank you. 🤗
My bag is attacking me 🤣
I’m so excited to get my YSL camera bag!! It’s back ordered and will arrive 12/30! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 can you please do a more thorough review of that bag? Do you own in other colors?
It makes me so happy that you showed the ysl camera bag! I bought it two weeks ago with you Farfetch discount! I love it :)
May I ask how much discount is 🤔 ?
@@anne-marie2972 hey! Sorry I didn't see this earlier, I paid 981 pounds instead of 1090
Omg great video!!!!
OMg I love that Small bag maybe Botega. But wow that zipper seems impossible. I don’t see a moment in my life with two kids and rarely a moment I’d need a small bag and not be in a hurry where I could do something to that degree. I will admire from afar. ❤️
I prefer more classic shapes of bags otherwise they are out of fashion very soon and it feels weird to still wear them. 🌸
I have never had a problem with the Boy bag because I got it in the calf skin. Its a great bag imo.
Love your video, and the comments!! Thanks 💕
Totally agree with the Stella McCartney Falabella bag. Sold mine again in a heartbeat....
Thank you for making this video. I just received the new balenciaga neo bag and I have to say I was sincerely disappointed by the quality. The hardware looks and feels cheap and basic… and the leather looks like a faux leather. Returning. I cannot believe the price for this bag is almost $2000 usd and eve with a Black Friday discount code. Terrible.
I have many bags in this price range and less and the quality is amazing. Hardware stunning. Gucci, LV, Prada, miu miu, ysl, and givenchy.
Buys an unstructured puddle bag with a ton of hardware and hates bag b/c it puddles and has too much hardware. 🤦🏽♀️
😂🤐
I love the look of a Chanel boy bag but after this vid it’s off my wish list for sure
glad to have rediscovered you Soph. - i have no interest or ability to afford anything you post about but i just love a bit of you - so fun! i joined the gang in blazer times
Another good size of the Lady Dior is the small version My Lady Dior abc, it comes with a good length of strap handle to wear cross body or in another way and because of the size it's perfectly fine for day wear and suitable for nights out.
It's one of my favourites 😊
I haven't used my Alma BB in years, but you've inspired me too again! Also, you're selling me on that Lady Dior (medium).. she is beyond gorgeous. Just subscribed!
I have a Chanel Chambon from the 90s it’s a bit like the boy.
Wear in the body corner and due to design it’s squashed upwards forever and no amount of stuffing fixes it.
Have t bought a Chanel bag since
You look SO beautiful in this blouse 🥰. Currently ordering one as I watch this!
Enjoy it my friend!xx
I'm appalled at the wear and tear of your boy bag! I bought mine in 2014, used and abused it, and I kid you not, it is pristine
That’s the issue with Chanel. Lately, it’s luck of the draw.
@@marina56 absolutely. It's absurd, at these prices and you're not even guaranteed consistent quality!
Great video. To the annoying bags I'd add a Hermès birkin and Gucci Jackie. Same reason.. Get in and out is a hussle.. Also struggling a little bit wir Loewe puzzle. You need 2 hands to open, because it's soft.. 😅
The Stella McCartney bag is definitely an older version. The one in the video is super shiny. Granted the light is contributing too but newer models are far more dull and look nothing like the one in the video.
The porsche ..... I hope the log book has your name on it
Thank you Sophie, I’ve been watching your videos for a few years now but don’t often comment. I’ve been wanting a luxury bag for such a long time. I got a really good buy on the ysl camera bag , on the Black Friday sales , so I finally went ahead and purchased it in black. Love the colour you got , but I’m happy that you love the bag ❤️🇦🇺💕
I love the functionality and wear of all my Ysl bags.
Leave the boy bag with a bag restorer then sell it!
Hi Sophie , could you do please a video only on Chanel ? . How to chose the best bag and which for longtime in terms of good investment for your self.
I had a Chanel boy bag when they were popular but it was annoying, sold it unfortunately when their popularity went down but luckily I brought it preowned and sold it for exactly the same price so I was lucky. Definitely off the trend train tho. Lesson learnt!
I have an Artsy in empreinte which I never use because it weighs a ton even when empty. It's a shame.
I have a caviar leather Chanel boy and it has no damage on the leather. The bottom hasn’t sagged either because I don’t carry all the much in it but a small wallet, key fob, and phone. Also I wear it more as a long strap instead of the shorter. Maybe I’m just lucky lol.
i love your blouse! also, i really miss your Christmas vlogs from last year! youtube auto played one of them after this video and it reminded me of how relaxing it was!!
I agree about the boy bag hard to get into
I LOVE your videos! Chocked full of great and useful information! Thank you, Sophie for giving us videos we can use in making very expensive luxury purchases! 🥰😍😘
I just love your points you’ve made on each bag. Well done. So funny about Stella bag - the chains make me crazy and I just can’t carry it. I bought a beautiful Aspinal of London vegan bag and for us vegans - it’s really great. Loving the size, look and x body strap. Just fyi 😊🌱🌱
Thanks for this very informative video. I was considering the mini Jody, but now I know that it will drive me crazy!
BTW I agree "nobody likes a saggy bottom" 🤣🤣🤣
Love this video! Thank you for sharing your honesty and bag wisdom 😊
Ooh I recognize the earrings David got you on your birthday from the vlog, Sophie! They look fantastic!
I love how you savagely described the bags 😂
After years of owning luxury, i come to a conclusion that a bag cannot irritate me. Be it the closure, the noise it makes etc. The number 1 bag that irritates me the most is the stella M which i sold at a fraction of what i paid for.
What issues did you have with the Stella Mcartney bag?
@@jewelnabq01 noisy. Extremely heavy
@@karenlie5256 I appreciate the info. I was on the fence about purchasing this bag but looks like this is a "no go".
@@jewelnabq01 I usually make good decisions but this stella m bag was my inner rock chic self trying too hard. I felt stupid. Lol
@@karenlie5256 I still think it is a good looking fun bag. It just doesn't sound practical. I want something I like and not annoying. I appreciate your input. It helps.
Can you do more annoying bags? It was so good 😊 love it and practical
I'm glad that functionality is paramount to me than style. I have an all LV canvass capsule bag collection and they all work hard for me. I'm in Carson city Nevada right now with an over 6in snowstorm. My Nevefull and speedy in DE is a workhorse! Luxury even in inclement weather lol. Yeah I realized chain straps bug the heck out of me. My vachetta canvass are reserve for sunny dry weather. I still love watching unboxings and reviews but I am quite happy with what I got.
the only nice Stella bag is one that was specially made for Neimans a few years ago with a snake print velvet
They must made it in many different materials. Mine doesn't make that noise at all but its very saggy it definitely needs an organizer.
Thank you for the video. Enjoy your week!
