My French partner introduced me to the brand 2 years ago. The bag looks brand new and I even wear it to the beach and stuff it in luggage when I travel and it keeps its shape. Un mini is the one I have. Onze plus douze on my radar. Fingers crossed Amazon doesn’t take over the planet lol.
$350! They’re $490 now. I hate when brands do this because they create buzz around a product at a lower price point and then slowly raise the prices as the old reviews continue to bring in sales.
Inflation goes on handbags to its something companies can’t control when everything is going up in prices
It's always been that way. Economics says demand increases price.
@@wallybielicz agree! But it hasn’t always been that people review and advertise a product at a particular price only for that to double in a matter of weeks and then the review or perceived value is not reevaluated
It’s called inflation and we are in a recession
@@lilywang3787inflation is like 3-8%, $490 is 40% more than $350
New subscriber came from tiktok! I been watching Polene for a while and it just looks luxurious and such a good price point like makes me contemplating switching from LV.
I’m in love with polene bags now! You hooked me! I ordered the beri in taupe and the the numbers dix… in black textured! I can’t wait to get them I hope it doesn’t take too long! 😍My husband said I could get them for Valentine’s Day! Great review love your channel!❤️
AHHHH that’s awesome!! So excited for your new bags to come🤍🤍
Thanks for making this video. That was one of my gripes about their website, they don't have photos of the inside of the bags.
Thanks for the review! I’m really liking the dix
WonderFUL!!! I love your video on this brand and just followed you! I think the larger numero Un and the sept look stunning! You have beautiful choices in bags dear take care 🥰
Thank you so much❤️❤️ definitely recommend trying them out if you haven’t tried it already
love how informative your video is- thanks for your honest review! :)
Aww thank you so much! Glad it was helpful
I must say, i love polene. You get a competitively luxurious feel when unbox. Ive gotten N1 in yellow years ago with free international shipping. I wanted a nano in the begining but partner got me the other😅. And i still want a nano.
Your review is very clear. Thank you!
Thank you for the reviews! Very helpful!
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it
I also hate paying for shipping lol! Especially at a certain price point, however I do understand these are shipping internationally so 🤷🏻♀️ I’ve been looking at the numero un mini in grey, looks so beautiful, yet not too flashy, in pictures. This brand is clearly very unique. I did hear that they may open a store in NYC, which would be amazing!
I heard that too maybe over a year ago at this point but no official news from Polene yet😭
i just went to LV store recently and i felt not luxurious anymore. I stopped buying luxury bags.. there’s a lot of companies make very good just like polene.
I agree! I think especially if you have to wait in line for hours, nope!!
Omg yess!! This! I live in LV & I feel like it’s difficult to find simple yet not too small/ big bags in these styles. I love this brand now 💗
@@myriambouclier1076 any recommendations for more french bag brands ?
Unfortunately I don't find LV a classy product, stamped all over with its logo (ugh!). It is an unstylish person's idea of a classy product. Avoid like the plague!
@@mehitabel6564truth!
polene is so amazing! the elegance, the cost, i pray they dont up their prices too much later LOL. i definitely want to start collecting their bags haha
They up their price already
@@heloisez5235 how much did they cost at the beginning?
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
AHHH yess!! I'm so glad you enjoyed this video babe
The strap is removable on the Numero Un 😊! Love this brand as well…wonderful quality and style 🌺!
Nice reviews!
How?
I have numero un and numero un mini and they are just perfect. I was trying to find a good bag with minimal branding that I could wear for years and Polene are perfect for that. Also I feel quite cool because you really can't see anyone walking around with Polene bags where I live.
My only con is that it can be a little difficult to really tell the color so I sugest going online to see more pictures and video.
I definitely agree! I think they use a lot of filters to fit their branding so the colors may not show up exactly like the site but I've never been disappointed by the colors
@@Celesta Yea for sure! My numero un is in Gray and website is definetely looks more of cool toned gray but irl is a greige. I love it but def not exact picture color. Now I hope people post pics of the new Neuf colors. Beige looks like it could be a winner.
I've been meaning to grab one of these Thanks for the review! :)
Aww I’m so glad you liked the video! Which style were you eyeing?🤩🤩
Thank you for putting this video together 🙂
Thank you for the reviews! I am eyeing on the numero 7 or 10 , but i am waiting for the free shipping since it is expensive here in Canada with taxes and duties 😐
good call!! And maybe they’ll have other styles you like more by then too! Im hoping they offer free shipping again in November/dec🥰🥰
I reside in Europe so that’s nice that there are no customs applied. Very good review 😊
I’ve been obsessed with your TikTok and now I’m obsessed with your UA-cam! I’ve been dying to try Polene but I haven’t been able to bite the bullet but your temping me 😉
AHH thank you so much😭 it took much such a long time to bite the bullet and now I can’t get enough HAHAH so maybe a double edge sword😅
Lol I feel ya!
The variety of textures in the *yutulux* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
I’ve been eyeing the dix for forever!! I just can’t decide between the monochrome black color and the monochrome black textured. The white stitching on the monochrome black keeps catching my eye, but watching your review the textured one looks beautiful! Which do you think will be more durable in terms of scratching? ❤️❤️
I totally get what you mean!! I loved the contrast stitching on the smooth leather but I also throw my bags around so I chose the grained leather. The grained leather is super durable! I don’t have anything from them in smooth leather tho☺️
Love the video. How much do the bags weigh when empty
Ah! I love a petite queen. So glad I found your channel! Can you do a favourite bags for petite frames video? I'm struggling to find a good bag that has adjustable crossbody straps - and enough holes to shorten it significantly (crying over the fact that it's the only reason stopping me from ever purchasing a Celine nano luggage lol).
AHHH YES this is such a good idea!! It’s hard for me too tbh unless the bag has a ton of holes already it’s so frustrating😭😭
I have a question. I have four Polene bags and love them but the last one I was super dissapointed on the colours they present on the website vs what has arrived. First number 7 white, looked super white online and then greyish in person. I returned it for the olvive green and again not the same as in the website. Have you experienced the same with some of the colours they have? The other came perfect and looked amazing
Thank you for such a detailed video! I think (for me at least) Polene is probably the only brand from which I could take any and every bag :D I'm currently trying to decide which would be the first Polene bag I'd want and that's a touch decisision :D New subbie here and a fellow bag lover xxx
Aww thank you so much!! Honestly I love Polene so much I don’t think you can go wrong with any style🥰 which ones were you thinking of?
@@Celesta well the number 7 is probably the strongest right now. But I also love the number 1 nano 😁 I
@@WithaTouchofLuxury I love the number 7!! Such a gorgeous style and it's great for work too
Which one would you recommend between Huit mini and Un nano?
Great informative video! I love Polene. I have the numero mini… I just wish the chain strap was longer for crossbody since I am 5’9”. Polene quality is amazing though! Thank you for this thorough video.
Thank you for watching! Have you tried any other styles from Polene with the adjustable strap? I feel like that might work since it’s so adjustable
@@Celesta I have not yet, but will be purchasing another Polene bag this year. I plan to go for one of the bags with the adjustable straps then. I am just blown away by their quality. Can’t wait to see my next bag from them! I think their pieces are just gorgeous. 😊
Have you tried wearing it with chain only in the first hole? I think it would still held shape and be a bit longer.
@@Kaivijs Yes! That is where I have the chain at right now. It works fine, I just prefer my bags longer for crossbody. Thank you! 🙂
thanks to this. i can;t wait for my green nanu polene to arrive. :)
I've been eying for Numero Dix for a while now... Can I ask if it stays on your shoulder considering being a structured hobo bag? I hope it does stays unlike my old Gucci Jackie bag. Thank you!
Thank you for your honest review.
I do like their bags.
Can you please make a review for “SENREVE” I’m about to purchase the Midi Maestra.
Great informative video!
Omg i love that purple dress! Can you share please! Thank you!
I love your intro, omg! HAHA
Great review.. I'm thinking of buying one...🥰
Thank you so much!! Honestly you can’t go wrong with polene they are amazing🤍
I’ve been wanting the Dix so bad! I’m trying my best to hold off until I get a new job first 😭
I hope you get that new job babe!! It's such a versatile bag I love it :)
Just ordered my first one very excited and yes LV dust bags are a dissapointment.
The little straps that are built into hold straps are called keepers at least those of us who have saddles in horses know that they are called keepers
Agree on the strap of Numero 7, it looks great, but it’s not a great strap and it keeps slide of my shoulder all the time when I use mine… still love the bag, but the strap does keep sliding down…
Hi Celesta. Do you like Mark Jacobs bags ?
From Canada here, just bought a polene one and got slapped with almost 100 dollars in duties. keep that in mind with your purchase. still waiting for it.
Hi can u suggest me where did i buy this bag.. I'm from Indonesia , can u suggest if i buy online..tq
Just discovered your channel and subbed 😊 I been eyeing the polene onze and the numero 10. Which polene bag is your favorite?
Aww thank you❤️❤️ I prefer the versatility of the 10 but the onze is unique too!! The only thing I feel like for the onze the opening might be hard to get in and out of the bag but other than that, super cute option for both
I love the design of Un nano. Is it very small or just normal small? I heard some people say it extremely small in person compared to the pictures on the website.
how is this compared to demellier bags in terms of quality and bang for the buck?
I’ve been debating between the number 10, the kate spade smile bag and the coach Bailey 😩 all very similar and I literally cannot make up my mind . The one thing that worries me with the number 10 is the excess strap that hangs down, do you feel like they’re constantly trying to slip out ? Or slipping up and creating an unnecessary loop ?
I honestly like the excess strap hanging out! I think the number 10 is the most unique/not mainstream compared to Coach and Kate Spade, but the kate spade smile has definitely caught my eye as well :)
@@Celesta thank you for the reply ! ❤️
I love the black!
Can you fit a 16oz water bottle in the number 1 or 10? Hehe just want to make sure since it’s a essential for me.
loved your review! I was missing a good review for the numero dix, now I know I have to get it 😬 the shipping made me hesitate too, even here in Europe shipping is expensive but the bags are totally worth it.
Ahh thank you so much! Honestly I'm obsessed with the numero dix. Could you possibly travel to paris to visit their showroom to get it?
@@Celesta actually I’m planning to go on a small trip to Paris in the fall (if we didn’t have another lockdown😅) so I’ll be definitely checking out all of the different styles
PLEASE DO!! Let me know what the store experience is like too🥰
@@Celesta will do 🥰
If she travels to Paris and has to pay for a hotel might as well pay for shipping 🤔
how fragile is the leather? i’m considering a 10 or 11 to use as a daily crossbody to replace my scratched up celine trio, apparently i’m hard on my bags 😢
not fragile at all!! At least the grained calfskin leather! I throw it around and no scratches or even color transfer
FYI: The strap on the Numero Un Nano IS removable.
Great video! Polene lover here as well… gave multiple of their bags. How would you compare the quality of polene to the demelier bag you have behind you? Thanks!
I feel like Demellier is a little bit more cheap feeling but it could be because I got the lizard embossed leather too!! I do love the demellier hardware nice and shiny🤩
@@Celesta Thanks for letting me know!
What’s the white bag on the top shelf behind you? Looks gorgeous!
Thank you!! It's the JW Pei Gabby Bag :)
Aren’t you on TikTok too? I think I learned about this brand from you and now I might buy one!! 😀
HAHAH YES! I've been posting longer videos on YT since I couldn't possibly squeeze all that into into 1 tiktok video😂
In the background where did you get your cream bag with the gold line buckle?
It's the Demellier Vancouver bag! Here's the link :) bit.ly/3eEx7Hf
I love the dix, I still trying Figure out what color I’m getting.
you can't go wrong with any of the colors tbh they're all neutral colors we love!!
I have been wanting to buy a Numero Un Nano for over a year. Every time I am about to buy it, I get stuck on which color to buy and I give up. I am off to their website now to see if I can make a decision!
Were you able to decide? I'm having the same problem lol
@@p3boricua3p There are so many beautiful colors! I did decide, but the color I want (Moka) is out of stock. lol It will work out someday…
I just recently found out the straps on Numero Un Nano is removal you have to pop the button and push the strap holders all the way down. Not sure if I’m explaining it correctly lol
HAHAH no that makes sense!! if you finangle it, it'll come off
Very honest review
yay!! I’m glad you enjoyed it❤️
Would you be able to tell us which fits more between the Dix and the Numero Un Nano? Also, which is more comfortable? Thanks!
I think they both fit about the same! The numero un fits a lot more than you think it does! I posted a tiktok on what fits here: www.tiktok.com/@itscelesta/video/6963686712035872005 In terms of what is more comfortable, I think they're both pretty similar. I have the 10 set as a shoulder bag at the moment and i love it, but of course the numero un is set to a crossbody so it's not budging when worn crossbody
Thanks so much! One more question.. which of the two would you recommend as a first purchase? I’d like to grab one, just don’t know which to start with! I’m more of a casual/smart casual outfit person :)
@@sarahmeck9094 honestly this is such a tough question! I like that the Dix is a little bit more on trend with the shoulder bags, but has the versatility of being a longer crossbody bag as well. HOWEVER, the Un is kind of a staple Polene bag. If I could only choose one, It would be the dix.
@@Celesta Thanks so much, really appreciate your time! :)
@@sarahmeck9094 the un nano eng.polene-paris.com/products/numero-un-nano-tan
Is my recommendation. I’ve had it for two years and it looks like just it came out of the box. I’ve taken it to Mexico twice and Utah in the winter. Beach or snow ❄️ there are no marks scratches or indentations. The price point is good for a first buy. I wanted to try a small item before diving in since I’m in LA. I’ll be in Paris in October so I’m saving to go buck wild in the Champs Élysées store. Maybe I’ll make a vid and expose my loot lol.
A little mineral oil on any metal zipper will help it work smoothly!
Hi. Really love this bag too. But would you recommend to bring this bag for travelling? Is this bag heavy? Thank you!
Yes!! I told one of my polene bags for traveling in New York and I loved it!! It was carefree and functional
@@Celesta thank you for the reply. And I’m so sorry i wasn’t specific. I meant the numero Dix. Is it a nice travelling bag? Thank you!
Hi Celesta, for the Number Ten, if i leave the bag on the table, can it stand upright ? thanks
it does but since the bottom isn't flat, it can move/fall over
Suggest one for traveling
Such an awesome review!! thank you!! The Un in nude/blush is so dreamy!! I am eyeing that one or the camel! or the MINI!!! Did you every consider getting the mini?
the only reason I didn’t consider the mini is because it’s a chain strap so it’s not adjustable (and we need the adjustable strap)😅
@@Celesta That makes sense! Thank you so much!
@@Celesta I’m only 5ft 2 so I would prefer an adjustable strap/chain too 😅
i don't own the bag myself but i'm pretty sure the crossbody strap on the #1 nano is removable. you just have to unbutton it and slide the strap out
The part that makes it adjustable makes it hard to remove I haven’t tried to fully remove the straps but I’ll try it next time☺️
@@Celesta oh okay. let me know if it works then :)
Any idea why they upped the price of the number 7? It costs 420 now.
A lot of brands have been doing price increases due to inflation. Not just bags, everything has gone up🙃
May I know what is your height about ? Jus wondering if the shortest strap for shoulder bag would look great on me. I'm 153cm just make sure that the length of "the shortest" strap would be not too long over my shoulder ? Thanks :)
I'm 4'11!!
@@Celesta thank you for replying.. will get mine soon :)
@@myjourneymylife336 YAYYY excited to see which one you get
The strap is removable
What do you think about the numero one mini???
I chose not to get the mini because I didn't like that it was taller and the chain strap isn't adjustable :)
Watching this video after buying the bag haha
literally me all the time
Hi! How's the wear and tear of the dix?
It’s been great thus far!
My hardware arrived without sticker and hardware with tarnishing and scratches. Yet Polene has still not responded to me
OMG! I've never had that happen before! LMK what happens !!
The prices have went up!!
Any color transfer?
Not in my experience!
What is your 3 favorite polene?
I wonder how they source their calf skin. I pray that the animal didn’t suffer. 😢
How much did you say the numero un nano? Lol now it’s $320
Yeah I heard they had a price increase about a month ago!
Número 1 :)
she's an icon
I like some of their designs, but to me, they are influencer bags. Almost every influencer received them as gifts. I still haven’t seen people other than influencers wearing them.
I actually see it quite a bit now! Maybe a year or 2 ago not so much but I see it out and about maybe once a month?
I like some of them but if it’s known as influencer bags is a bit daunting
Return policy is an absolute nightmare. They will hold on on your money even if you post it back. Think twice before ordering from them
Oh no!
$20 shipping is nothing IMO.
LOL compared to free 2 day shipping on Amazon prime I can’t😂
Seriously. People compare everything to Amazon and don’t realize the damage they are doing to the middle class and how many counterfeit items they are receiving because there is absolutely no quality control or surveillance of authenticity. I see reviews of general products from sports brands like Nike and Adidas and others like Coach and Lululemon that report receiving fake items. We made Bezoz rich enough to send himself to space whilst not recognizing we are not supporting small businesses that create beautiful hand made items of quality and authenticity because we don’t want to pay for shipping. It takes 18 hours to make one Polene bag let that artist eat and feed his family. 20 is nothing when you compare the cost of machine made luxury bags that are simply assembled in the EU but mostly fabricated in sweat shops. (In February 2008, a lengthy article from the Los Angeles Times, entitled, “Slaving in the Lap of Luxury,” for instance,declared, “There are products made completely in Italy but by Chinese immigrants without proper documents and [for whom] labor conditions are especially nasty.”The Times’ Tracy Wilkinson painted an ugly picture about the realities of these Chinese-run factories that were actively supplying luxury brands, writing, “Italian financial police have shut down many factories after raids exposed poor living conditions [within the factories], lack of residence permits for foreign nationals and the failure to pay taxes)
The Polene price point is for the French to afford it they don’t live on credit like we do. Polene knows its market base and I would like a guilt free purchase.
@@Z_3D well said 👏
I thought shipping was free on December but I had to pay 😅
omg where did you have to ship
@@Celesta USA, Ohio
Cons are not really a thing with luxury items. If it's hyped, it will sell like hotcakes.
they dont even do the tax refund in the shop in paris
omg really?! I thought they would since it's over a certain $ amount right?
Polene- long e
DO NOT BUY POLENE !!! IF FOR SOME REASON YOU WANT TO RETURN THE BAG, THEY WON’T EVEN ANSWER TO YOU. SOME BAGS COME DEFECTIVE. I SENT THEM 3 EMAILS, WEEK AFTER STILL NO RESPONSE. THEY WILL IGNORE YOU.
"theyre gifting soo many bags to influences omg", "oh yeah they gifted me bags - lets talk "honestly" lmaooooo .....wow lame.
You say bag a lot.
You talk so fast ))))
u speak too too fast !
Anyone looking for a dupe for the polene no 10:

Hi I dont see your nude numero un anymore, did you sell it? If so, why? 🥹
Planning to get this exact bag. Also, would an iphone 14 promax fit comfortably in it? Thank you!
Nope I still have it! it for sure fits the pro max :)
@@Celesta thank you!!! Is the nude more pink or beige? And is it hard to match with outfits? Im so confused which to color to get there are soo many options, how are you loving the nude so far? Thank youuu ❤️
