These super large travel bags as daily use bags were very popular a few years back in my city but now i see people abandoning these as daily use and now using smaller bags and even mini bags. I still love this size bag for travel though because i can get in and out and don’t have to unzip anything! I’ve been carrying a rolling bag to carry my heavy work stuff to protect my shoulders and I don’t know how I lived without it before. Thanks for the review.
Depending on where I’m going, and what mood I’m in, I will occasionally use this as a daily bag. For the most part I use it for either work or travel. I use a Madewell backpack as my workbag now.
Had the same issue with a Neverfull from 2017 and now with a new one - the uneven patina because some parts seem to be treated or someting... I really am not sure what to do because it will get worse over time and I hate the look of that too... Glad that somebody FINALLY mentioned this!
Yeah I’m not sure what LV was thinking when they decided to do that. Too many people complaining about patina when that’s what it’s supposed to do! It’s very frustrating. If it’s any consolation to you at all, my friend has a neverfull MM that had the same issue with uneven patina and she has had it for quite a while now. I just saw her the other day carrying it and it did eventually all even out but it took around two or three years. Personally I didn’t have the patience to wait that long because it shouldn’t be made in correctly in the first place! I hope this helped!
Thank you for the wear and tear review. Have missed seeing your videos. I had lingering side effects that you described for almost 4 months. Have you purchased any new bags? Would love to see a video.
Hopefully all your side effects have subsided now. I’m hoping it does for me soon. I haven’t purchased any new bags in a while but as soon as I do I’ll do a video for sure!
Thank you so much I love you and your videos ❤️ I am so sorry for your loss I know how you feel I lost my mom and I can barely manage to get out of bed😞 but I just wanted to let you know that your videos help to pass the time your and it's nice because your always so pleasant 💕 God bless you beautiful lady!!
So lovely to see you again!! Re covid, i had it very mildly in december 2020, and i am v tired and sometimes have dizzy spells. However, a bloke from work (am in England) has long covid, he caught covid in 2020 too. His symptoms are extreme tiredness, slurred speech, difficulty walking (he's probably in his 30's, slim and generally fit). My friend also got it in 2020 mildly, but her taste hasnt come back. Just a few tastes on the edges of her tongue, thats it. Research fasting perhaps, as buchiner wilhelmi on you tube (a medical retreat) did a tiny study and fasting improved the symptoms. Thanks for the video!!
Hello! I’m happy to be back. My boss’s wife caught long COVID and is still recovering very slowly. My best friend who caught it lost her sense of taste for six months. It eventually came back but not like before. I am definitely going to try fasting. Thank you for suggestion🙏💕. Stay healthy and safe!
You really make me want a neverfull now! I stopped buying LV because I bought way to much but no NF yet. Yours looks just gorgeous!!!!! The graceful is also tdf I hope mine will develop like yours. And yayy to have you back!!!
@@ItalidaReviews I have so many liz bags and was trying to be reasonable lol. But I am breaking! After seeing yours I am really thinking I need one. I am a bit thoughtful about the treated and untreated parts! I doubt they would take back a bag from me when I go and say the patina is not even. I expect them to say it's my fault🙈 how do you get them to return your bag ???
@@reshmi_beautyaroundtheworld I just stand my ground. You have to convince them that you know what you’re talking about and you won’t accept their excuses for why it is happening. Any time they tried to throw an excuse at me I would come back with why they were wrong. In the end they couldn’t refuse me because they knew I was right. Even the manager said he’d never seen the bags do that before and didn’t realize they were treating the leather. Two other sales associates from LV’s customer service confirmed my suspicions that they were treated.
@@ItalidaReviews wow yes you have a lot of stamina! I find it so frustrating to discuss with them that's why I stopped buying. I am noticing my petit noe is having a different patina on each side. I have to observe that more closely. Have a great day and I am ready for a video on your gorgeous graceful❤😍
TFS. Glad you’re doing videos again! Make up & Hair looks great. Sorry for your loss 😢 We all had Covid.....monoclonal antibodies were lifesaving!!! 3 out of the 4 of us have asthma.
basing on your experience, i recently bought a pre loved speedy b 35 de, microchipped. When i realised i was not very comfortable with that.Apart from this, do you think there is a big difference in quality between models that were produced for example in 2014 and in 2021 and then; i have heard that lv quality keeps on deteriorating. I would really appreciate your opinion cause i am seriously thinking of returning it. I mean the canvas feels so thin😢
@@zetoni1982 unfortunately there is definitely a difference in the quality of the bags made then and now. The quality is not as good anymore. This is a trend across all the fashion houses. Inferior materials with soaring prices. However, with that said, I will say that the canvas on the Neverfull tote bags seem to be the same. I have a tote from a long time ago and one from just six months ago and they both feel the same.
Welcome back! Missed your honest reviews! Love the patina on the GM Neverfull. I don’t understand why people but the bags with vachetta and then complain about the patina. I love when my bags patina.
You’re too kind! Thank you! I use two different products on my face. The Sunday Riley Good Genes for my entire face and Prevage by Elizabeth Arden for under eye care.
Hi, thanks for showing your beautyful LV. I bought mine in autumn last year and I don't wear it when it is raining at the moment because it has no patina so far and I am afraid that it gets dark spots. How did you in the first couple of months?
I didn’t wear mine in the rain initially either. Just wearing and using it a lot will help it to eventually develop a patina. Mine is three years old and gets a lot of use.
Then you’re the exception because most don’t patina evenly. You may have gotten lucky and got a bag in which all the leather pieces had protectant. If yours has an even patina then that is most likely the case. Maybe they’ve wised up and are doing all pieces now. At any rate, I won’t be adding anymore LV to my collection for a while.
Hi Italida! Love your bag review videos! By the way, you mentioned you graduated school a year ago. May I ask what you went to school for? Just curious because I am thinking about going back to school as I never finished and I am in my 30s.
Hello! I went back to school to get my Master’s in Counterterrorism and Critical Infrastructure security. It’s never too late to go back to school. I am well into my forties. I think you should go for it! Thank you so much for watching💕
I agree 100%! When the cost of a neverfull is at $1700 that’s insane. The quality isn’t increasing with the price and there’s never availability of certain bags because they’re constantly pulling them due to QC issues. Yeah, I’m done with LV personally. I’m giving other brands my business. I’m happy with the few bags I’ve kept in my collection.
I love and I missed soo much your videos! 😻 I have the LV Neverfull MM and it is the most useful bag, I ever had! Literally, going to work, for shopping, to the gym, with family at the beach, traveling, going out for lunch or coffee! It's so beautiful! 💞🐈 A question: where are you from? Cause "Italida" in greek means "Italian girl". I am from Greece, so that's why Im asking you. Love u! 😻⛵
OMG, you’re the FIRST one to ever know what my channel name means! I would give my right eye to live in Greece!!! 😍🇬🇷. My family are all from the upper East coast with the exception of my dad who was from Canada. I have very little Greek in my blood but love the language and culture so much. I’m mostly Italian and Portuguese. We grew up with a really strong Italian influence so it’s what I identify most with. Hence, Italida 💕 Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching my videos!!! 💜💜💜 Namaste!!!!
@@ItalidaReviews Hahahaha, allora ti sento baci e ti auguro che un giorno, il tuo sogno vivere in Grecia, diventera' realta'! 🏺⛵💖🎆🎆 Cordiali saluti da una Greca che parla inglese ed italiano! 😻💞
I just bought a new Neverfull GM yesterday (it’s my second one and it cost $2100). I also bought my 17 year old the Boetie PM last week. My 20 year old has the Speedy. I love LV, but wish I hadn’t gotten my girls hooked on the brand as I may go broke🥴🤦♀️😩😂 Great video. I want the Artsy next, but wish they hadn’t discontinued the GM as I like large bags. I don’t like the MM😕🥲
I can’t believe how much they’ve gone up since I bought mine. It’s crazy! I do love my Neverfull GM though. I’m actually using it right now. In my opinion, it’s one of LV’s best bags!
how often do you use . Cause I was torn mm or GM but feel GM is better because can tuck in sides but I feel GM looks to big for daily use ? How or when do u like to use
Hello! I used this bag a lot mostly for work. However there are times when I do use it as a daily bag and I just tuck in the sides like you were mentioning. I don’t think that the GM is too big if you cinch the sides in. The MM version does hold a lot but in my opinion it can still be limiting depending on what you like to carry with you each day.
The GM has the same length strap as the MM. However, the Graceful has a much more comfortable and longer strap drop. I can easily sling my graceful MM over my shoulder whereas the neverfull GM gets caught on my elbow.
I just bought a Louis Vuitton neverfull monogram on Mercari and it was authenticated by Mercari by Real Authenticate. But I’m still paranoid thinking it’s fake. Are the side straps suppose to be very light in weight?
Yes, they weigh hardly anything at all. The only part that has any weight to it is the end piece of the strap that has the d-ring and sliding piece of leather.
Yay! Thanks so much for your reply! I watched a few videos on how to authenticate the bag. I think I’m good after all… the buyer had it authenticated. Just came across your video and thought I’d ask you, you seem to know a lot! I love all your reviews! ❤️🥰
Hello beautiful. How’ve you been? I swear time must ‘ve been still, cause you never age and only get more beautiful in time. I’m back . And soon will have soon some new LV info for you .
I agree about the new treated Vachetta... I'm thrilled I was able to find a pre-loved bag before they did that!

Aw, thank you so much 💕

If yours has an even patina then that is most likely the case. Maybe they’ve wised up and are doing all pieces now. At any rate, I won’t be adding anymore LV to my collection for a while.
I can't believe they took three bags back. How long did you have them when they were able to do that?

Also, the straps should be long enough to touch the table when you set your bag on it.
