Finally got to watch your review :) Very nice bag, reminds me a little of my old Fairfax - and yes I too use the front & back pockets to hide the shorter straps haha! To be honest though, I am no fond of the open compartments (velcro on the Fairfax, magnetic button on yours). Somehow I'm always frightened that something might fall out or get rained on etc. But otherwise, lovely bag. You said you like the many pockets, as I said yesterday you'd probably love the Defea because even some of the pockets have their own pockets 😀Make sure you don't get "Cool Defea" because that's a watered down version really. Thanks again for your review, look forward to future Kipling reviews from you :)
@@dillinrivera91 Haha I know right? Kipling bags are sooo addictive... I have three Defea bags and two Gabbie S, also the Gabby Mini but wouldn't recommend it because it's too puny for all the stuff we obviously need to carry ^_^ Plus I have numerous other luggage items, purses, wallets and pouches. My husband would kill me if he knew how much I spent on them over the years (shhhh lol). All jokes aside I'm also very fond of the Creativity pouches (I have them in all sizes). You might enjoy the Creativity S for some of your lipsticks etc. Have a great day Dillin!
Thank you for the Elysia videos. I love that slate grey. I wish they made other models in this color. I like how you've tucked the grab handles inside. I find the handles too short for comfortable shoulder use. I have two Elysia's and I can't help but find them too small. I love, love, love the way they look, and I always want to use them. I just feel cramped in them. I end up using the Felicity and Klara more often. You seem to have about as much stuff as I do, but yours don't look stuffed. You still have a lot of slack in them. Maybe they're making them slightly larger. Would you mind measuring your newer one seam to seam length, height and depth so I will know. I don't think they ever change the dimensions on their site, even when the dims do change.
Sorry for the late reply and thank you so much for commenting☺️ So I did measure the slate grey Elysia and it was 13 width 10 height and 4 1/2 in depth and I think your correct in that this is a little bigger…I even compared it with the 3 other Elysias that I have by transferring my things into all of them and they did feel a little more tight in the other colors…so I think the slate grey is a bit larger lol
Have you ever tried the baggallini International Calais crossbody bag? Baggallini reminds me a lot of kipling. That bag is on sale right now in the ink hydrangea print on Zappos.
I love that bag it's so spacious. Yet not too big for your essentials. Thanks for the video.
It really is a great and comfortable bag…thanks for watching ☺️

I haven’t tried Baggallini bags yet😅 But they look gorgeous as well!
Oh yea, big ups to the zippers. I’ve broken too many nails on purse zippers.
This color gets very dirty? Or no?
No not really plus you can put it in the washing machine
What the size hon
It seems like a medium size but it holds a ton👜💗
