I like the Bride-a-Brac as a grab and go bag, especially in that stunning color. I agree on the Neobain; it's cute but too much for what it is and how it will be used. I don't need packaging when I buy for myself but it's helpful to know because I'd hope it's a bit cuter if I'm actually gifting to someone. Would love an updated review or "what fits" video after you've been using your Bride-a-Brac!
Will definitely do an updated video! I used it yesterday and it fit all my essentials with tons of room to spare. The colour is really stunning and adds that extra pop!
Okay. So I LOVE Bride-a-brac bags! Hermes fans ALWAYS use them as handbags! Specially the Asian/Hawaiian community. They wear BOTH their Birkins & their Bride-a- bracs out all the time. I know because I follow them & watch their UA-cam. Lol 😂. It is a handbag. They just market it to what they want so they can keep their other handbags at high value. Something I learned after working in fashion for so long. I’ve seen other handbags from other luxury designers with the same exact shape for much higher because they market it as “handbag” Also, I’m so sorry you didn’t get an orange box. However I love the white box that it comes in. I think the artwork is cute. I finally got one after wanting one for so long like you! I got the marine color online! AND IT CAME THE NEXT DAY AFTER I ORDERED IT! Was so surprised. And mine came with my LARGE ORANGE BOX! Brown ribbon! & gift card! It even says online that it comes with one. I’m pretty sure if you call customer service and point that out or go into a store they will give you the box. My bolide case didn’t come with a box, but did come with an orange bag. All of my jewelry and perfumes sets come with boxes. Not individual perfumes though. I also love your color! That’s my second favorite after the marine. Enjoy it! ❤
Ohh the marine is stunning! Congratulations! Thank you for all the info! I don't think I'll ever be able to afford a birkin...but I can definitely see myself getting another one of the bride-a-bracs! 😂 I guess I'll have to stalk the site now and see if another one comes available. Do you often order online or go in store?
@@LValiquette I usually order online. However my BF has gotten me items in store before. & yes girl me too! I plan on collecting all the colors for bride-a brac Smalls. 😂
I've purchased mine bride-a-brac in the same color online in US and it came packaged with the ribbons and box. I wear mine as a bag and style with neutrals when I want a pop of color. Love it with total beige look! I hope you would enjoy wearing yours as well :)
OMG, last year I bought a neobain pouch online and it came boxed and wrapped and everything... how strange, and as for the bride a brac it's very cute, I've seen conversion kits that are like special hooks that clip on the buttons and allow you to put a strap to wear it crossbody, maybe its a good option if you want to use it as a bag
Ohhh interesting! Conversion kits for the bride-a-brac, so I'm not the only one who wants to use it as a bag haha! I'll have to take a peak! Thanks for letting me know.
I also ordered bride-a-brac from the Canadian Hermes website. And the packaging was extremely poor. The case was placed inside a zip loc bag and there was no stuffing or tissues at all. And there’s no blank card either, even though I requested for gift packaging too. I then ordered another bride-a-brac case in a different colour, hoping the second time would be a better experience. Nope, it came exactly the same way. And when I reached out to the customer service, I was told that’s how it is. Not sure why the Canadian Hermes decides to operate this way as my friends in the US and Asia all received their items packaged beautifully. Anyway, this has completely turned me off from Hermes.
Hey Lauren! Just to give my thoughts on your questions, the Hermes packaging is horrible lol. Also I wouldn't use the cosmetic pouch as a bag personally; for me, if it looks at all like a cosmetic pouch, it cannot be used as a bag. Like the LV cosmetic cases, many people use them as clutches but I can't unsee the cosmetic case. The toiletry pouches are passable imo because they're simple and rectangular but for me, I'm pretty purist in that a bag is a bag and a cosmetic bag is a cosmetic bag, generally speaking. Just my personal preference!
I think I got my hopes up that I would get an orange box! I'm not sure who packaged it, but it definitely said "gift" on the order - so strange. I actually used it as a grab and go bag yesterday and I think it was pretty cute. But, I totally get what you are saying about being a purist ☺️. I'm generally the same too!
I love the orange. So cute! What’s it made of? The other one fits your ipad perfectly. I would probably use it as a makeup bag when traveling because you can wipe it down. I think box packaging is wasteful anyway, because I always end up throwing it out. Have a great weekend! 😊
So cute orange bag😊! The ipad case us really nice for ipad but i agree it may be pricey and the color, the design is not very Hermes! But if budget is not an issue, ill keep it! 😊Congrats🎉
Yes, it's so cute! 💕I ended up sending back the neobain pouch - I couldn't justify the price haha! I think it would be great for someone that travels a lot.
Both items are pretty. But I wouldn’t keep the second item presented either. Not for that price point. Thanks for always sharing your new finds. I really have been eyeing their wallets from Hermes.
Yes, the neobain pouch is pretty...but like you said, that price point is too high! I just returned it. I'm new to Hermes, so I'll have to check out more of their small leather goods. I've heard their leather is really amazing.
I got the same bride-a-brac! They are hard to come by on the website so I checked out right away😂. Mine came packaged in the Hermes box and came with a dustbag so Maybe it depends where it was shipped from?
Ohhh I'm jealous haha! I didn't even think about a dustbag! I think you're right, it must depend on where it is shipped from and if the person is feeling extra happy that day haha.
Enjoyed your unboxing so sorry you did not receive the boxing as well. For this kind of money you should receive all the bells/whistles! These items are in high demand but, I would return the ipad pouch and keep the bride a brac. Just my opinion and thank you for sharing with us.
Yes, I was a little bit disappointed, I think mainly because it was my first order! I did just ship back the neobain pouch - the price point is just too high for it.
If your unhappy with the way it was sent take pics and ci tact the company and see if they can send you gift packaging ❤ love the bag and great option! I am on team return the waterproof bag - put the money towards something better ❤
I didn't even know that this cute little bag existed until a a few months ago. It's such a great pop of colour. You and I are both on the same page - I sent back the neobain pouch today...I just couldn't justify the price!
I love idyll jewelry but have not yet purchase anything. I would definitely call Hermès I bought Bastia and a lipstick and both came in a box somebody definitely mess up ..

Oh man, so I missed out on the pretty packaging! Glad that you love yours! 💕
Bride-a-brac is so cute! You should also check out the bolide make up case. You can add a strap and have a cute bag.
Ohh thanks for the recommendation!💕
i love the bride a brac would def use it as a handbag but yea the canoe one though I agree with you and would send it back.
Yes, the bride a brac is such a cute grab and go bag! I just shipped out the neobain back - for the price point, I can't justify it

Ohh wow, that's terrible. A ziploc bag definitely makes it feel cheap. I wasn't disappointed with the packaging for sure.
it's an adorable bag & perfect for vacation, easy to take to beach etc

It's made from cotton! It's really light. The inside is waterproof which is nice. I think the neobain would be great for people who travel a lot.
@@LValiquette Thanks. It looks like a really soft leather on camera! How gorgeous.
So cute orange bag😊! The ipad case us really nice for ipad but i agree it may be pricey and the color, the design is not very Hermes! But if budget is not an issue, ill keep it! 😊Congrats🎉

Oh I do love the flat pouch but agree it’s a bit pricey and very bougie for a tablet case😊
Yes! If it were $200, I think that would be ok...but $540 is steep.
I got the same bride-a-brac! They are hard to come by on the website so I checked out right away😂. Mine came packaged in the Hermes box and came with a dustbag so Maybe it depends where it was shipped from?
Wow a dust bag? Lucky you! I did get the box though! So you may be right
Ohhh I'm jealous haha! I didn't even think about a dustbag! I think you're right, it must depend on where it is shipped from and if the person is feeling extra happy that day haha.
That Bride-a-Brac is so so cute! What a great price, totally use it as bag. A lot of bags are that shape anyways like the Loewe, Dior. lol
Yes! I don't know how I scored it, but I'm so happy that I did! It holds a decent amount too!

I bought a Burberry scarf a couple of weeks ago in store and I had to ask for a box. Wonder if companies are just cutting back their expenses?
Maybe, that's very true!
I ordered online and didn't get a box. I called and they sent me a box. You might try that.
Ohhh interesting! Thanks for sharing the info!
Pop of colours, look at you go
Who am I?! I think I'm becoming you!
I love idyll jewelry but have not yet purchase anything. I would definitely call Hermès I bought Bastia and a lipstick and both came in a box somebody definitely mess up ..
Ohh interesting! I'm hearing so many people say that they always get the beautiful packaging. I wonder if it depends on where it ships from?
Not sure about the pouch but I know the bride-a-brac doesn’t come in a box. Not all items come with a box unfortunately. Love your video btw ❤
Ahhh, thank you for letting me know! 💕
I received in box and w dust bag ( online order) :)
I love your nail polish.. what kind and color is it..?
It's my fave polish! It's by NCLA in the shade "Call my Agent". The perfect red.
Hello; If you want to build your purchase history with Hermes, you should not buy online. That is what my sales associate mentioned to me.
Ahhh, I didn't even think about that. Thanks for letting me know. I don't know if I'll ever be able to afford a true Hermes handbag 😂
I just don’t think I would use either one. Just my opinion.
Ahh, totally hear you! Everybody has their preferences!
Hey Girl Hey
LOL! Heyyyyy! I'm over here thinking I'm so fancy haha.
I have definitely seen the bride a brac come in tissue before. You’re 💯on the pronunciation, it’s pronounced breed not bride.
wow
The perfect pop of colour!
