I compared these 2 at the store. I ended up getting the Croisette in Damier Ebene! I love it, it feels more premium than the Alma bb. Its more comfortable to wear too.
This is the best comparison video I’ve seen so far. Both bags are cute. I’m leaning towards the Alma BB but the Croisette is also on my wishlist. I don’t own a LV bag and I’m excited since it will be my very first one.
I don’t have the Croisette but I love my Alma BB. It doesn’t bother me when I wear it cross body although I have heard others complain about it too. I’ve just had it for less than a month but I’ve worn it everyday since then. I was lusting over it for more than a year and couldn’t be happier to add it to my collection. Thanks for this comparison.😊❤️
I have both bags. I think to be fair to the croisette, it could be the print that’s making you not use it as much. I have both in the Damier Ebene print. I love both. The Alma would only be my first choice If price was an object. Great review!
Wow this video is so helpful. I was overthinking about these two bags and which of them is going to be my first purchase from LV. I think I will go with Alma BB. Thanks a lot.
Hello, Amber, I don't have a Croisette but it's such a cute bag. I love my Alma BB and that is my ultimate bag! lol. I bought another Alma BB in red epi leather at Venice few weeks ago. I absolutely love this bag. Thanks for sharing your comparison on these two beautiful handbags. Have a great day.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about these 2 beauties. I already have the alma bb in ebene as well, and I may say, though it’s a canvass print bag it works really well in all of my outfit, whether plains or in prints! LV canvas bags have that kind of magic! I’m also considering the croisette in azure print, I love this print. Probably Azure will always be my forever crush as I’m fond of whites. More power to your chanel!❤️
I bought Croisette in damier print last year as i find it very cute..however i returned it after ..not spacious nothing much to put inside and the handle not adjustable..i got the neo noe instead and i just loved it and had no regrets..i have my eyes on Alma bb as it seemed small but quite spacious though handle is not adjustable
Not sure which to get, since the RIDICULOUS price increases. Should’ve gotten both of them a year ago, but was more focused on Gucci & Saint Laurent etc. However, I think the Coach Katy satchel is more stunning then the Alma BB..
I have the Alma bb in ebene and just ordered another one in epi leather in the pink! Love this purse so much! Glad I watched this video bc I don’t feel too guilty getting a second one now😊
I'm in the market to buy my first LV bag and it's a toss between the two! its so hard to pick they're both such great bags! I want both but I can't justify the purchase of two handbags. The video was very helpful.in comparing the two bags I feel like I have all the information I need.
I have the Alma BB and I love it, I am now torn between the croisette in damier ebene or the locky bb so this comparison video was great to find out a little more about the croisette
it took me a while to get my Alma BB until made my order a couple days ago. i can't believe price has increase $200 from Nov 2019 to June 2020. Oh my LV... thank you for the video
I have both and don’t like the Alma, it’s super cute but it’s does not sit nicely on my body, the Croisette looks way better, I am 5’3.medium size. They are also both very small, I can barely fit all of my essentials. You have to pack both bags very carefully to make everything fit.
I have Alma PM damier and MM monogram. Love them. Thinking to get the BB but I am a big carrier person and going out with tons of essentials to work . Am more comfortable with large bags. But BB is so cute and a temptation,💕the BB can be worn with strap not PM and MM. Really not meant to wear with strap. They meant to be hand carry like showed on runway. Coco designed this style originally without strap. Love your voice ❣️
I really love the Alma bb in DE! I’m currently stuck on getting either the Alma BB DE or YSL Lou Lou small. Which one do you prefer and think would be a better everyday bag? Great review btw! 🤍
Same issue here haha! My conclusion will be buying the Alma bb in two weeks and after that the YSL LouLou small in nude/beige. Got my eye on the Givenchy Antigona Crocodile as well. I want them all! 😂🙌🏼
Great comparison. I don’t have the Alma but bought the Croisette in September. I haven’t used it a lot because of the weather and now it’s getting to be winter.
This is a great video! Thank you! I had the Alma BB but sold it and I regret it so much! But I saw this bag and wanted to watch some videos so I can decide if I want to buy the Alma BB again or if I want the Croisette! My only problem with the Alma was the strap! Does the Croisette get any color transfer when wearing dark shirts or jeans? I wear jeans a lot and I love the azur but am scared of color transfer!
Hi! Loved the comparison video. You brought up so many things like versatility, ease in getting inside the bag, the flap opening all the time... and that lock makes me a little nervous... and it doesn’t latch when it is not full🤔 ...Will it get scratched always trying to find the latch hole?... I just bought the Croisette and STILL not sure if I will keep it. When I ordered they said they would extend the return time policy due to the Covid-19 shut downs.... I DO love the BB ..... and I DO love that it is cheaper.... so maybe I will exchange it when the stores open ...The first time I looked at the BB and opened the dust bag I gasped!! It was so cute it took me breath away- LOL
💚🖤 Oooo That sweater/top makes your eyes pop, it’s gorgeous!!!!! I am loving that color green 😘😘😘 Both bags are beautiful, augh so hard to choose 🤣🤣🤣 So, I choose both 🥰🥰🥰 that’s allowed, right 🤭🤣 Love your comparison videos, I have watched many, but honestly you are very detailed and honest about what you can fit, the functionality and how to style !!!! Xxoo
Did the Croisette canvas loosen up at all? You have so much in yours but when I tried it at the store it felt so stiff to me I didn’t think it would fit my items. Thx! 😊
Wondering which item you would recommend... alma bb or kirigami escale? I currently have the escale but tossing up whether I should exchange for the alma. Would love your advice!
Thank you for this video. But I want to know do you put an organizer in the Alma? When I put in an organizer in my Alma GM and PM I notice it gives it a weird shape and it zips up awkwardly. Do you find that an issue for you?
I compared these 2 at the store. I ended up getting the Croisette in Damier Ebene! I love it, it feels more premium than the Alma bb. Its more comfortable to wear too.
I have the croisette in DE too. Love it 💕
I have a Croisette in the damier ébène and it looks gorgeous..have worn it for a wedding top handle
Yes!! Bought my Alma BB back in June 2019 and never looked back! But the Croissette is also so cute 😫
The first thing I do when I get a bag is treat the leather to make it waterproof. I have several LV bags and found Scotchguard to work.
This is the best comparison video I’ve seen so far. Both bags are cute. I’m leaning towards the Alma BB but the Croisette is also on my wishlist. I don’t own a LV bag and I’m excited since it will be my very first one.
OMG...this is exactly the comparison video of these 2 bags I’ve been looking for. Thank you for the details and this is really helpful!!
Glad it was helpful! XOXO
This is one of the best handbag review and comparison ever! Thank you so much! I think I will go for the Alma bb!
oh my goodness - you made my day! Thank you!
This is the EXACT video I was searching for. I'm considering either the alma bb in DE or the croisette in DE. Thank you for this video! xoxo Wendy
oh yay - that makes me so happy! I hope it helped! have a good day!

Just made this decision myself. Love the alma so much. Seems so classy/classic
Agree
Guess I’m getting both lol! Now I need to decide what canvas to get the croissette in!!! Ugh!!!
haha - good luck and thanks for watching!
The leather parts of my alma bb that I bought last year has a shiny finish. Looks like the new ones have matte finish.
Yes they are matte
Love Alma BB, & Croisette is adorable! Excellent comparison.
thank you so much for taking the time to watch!

Thank you for this detailed video on both bags... I’m considering both bags and this was really helpful. 💖💛
Thanks for the opinion… I was torn what to buy.. but because of your vid I will go to Alma BB 🥰
AW YAY - Good choice!
I looove the Croisette, I was an Alma BB girl… but I don’t have either bags LOL. Receiving my first Louie, the Alma BB on Monday.
Great review. I was trying to decide if I should get croisette azur or the alma azur. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
great review! I have the croisette and thinking of adding the alma bb or pm to my collection :) can't decide between empreinte or epi leather either 😬
oooh say the empreinte leather. It is my fave and holds up so well
I prefer the Alma b/c it’s a zippered bag w/o a “lid” top lol That’s why I rarely reach for my Favorite mm

Very thorough review, thanks! I agree on all points as I have the Alma BB as well and absolutely love it for all reasons mentioned 💗
aw thanks so much for watching!
I was going to buy the Locky BB but now the Alma BB has caught my eye 😭
Wow I loved this review I just bought an Alma BB and I was tore betwenn those two but I also went for the Alma BB. Thank you for this honest review ❤️
aw thank you so much for watching!
Amber Ashleigh Thank you 💛
Thank you for this review! It helped me a lot to decide witch one to pick! I went with Croisette, but with darker colours. Thanks again!
Glad it was helpful!
The Alma BB is a must have!!!! it fits A LOT more than expected. I just posted a what's in my bag video showing what you can put in it :)

@@AmberAshleigh35 thank you :)
Thank you for the detail video! I have both bags in different canvas😀 my 5 years old alma bb is like new👍🏻
aw thanks so much for watching!
I have the Alma bb in ebene and just ordered another one in epi leather in the pink! Love this purse so much! Glad I watched this video bc I don’t feel too guilty getting a second one now😊
I definitely want to get the alma bb in the empreinte leather. Thanks for watching!

I know that whenever I’m in doubt with two bags, I will have the answer on your channel 😍
This is my struggle right now! I don’t know which one to pick 😩 both in the Damier ebene!!
Same here ! Driving me crazy to make a decision! Alma is more classic but don’t know if it’s look good when wearing crossbody
Thank you so much for the comparison, very helpful!
aw thank you so much! I'm so glad it helped! Have a lovely day!
For the price point I could buy an Alma BB in epi leather. But I also like the Croisette. 💭
Is the alma bb damier ebene has wrinkling on the handles? Is it normal? I just got one and it’s rough to touch is this normal? Please help
I really love the Alma bb in DE! I’m currently stuck on getting either the Alma BB DE or YSL Lou Lou small. Which one do you prefer and think would be a better everyday bag? Great review btw! 🤍
Same issue here haha! My conclusion will be buying the Alma bb in two weeks and after that the YSL LouLou small in nude/beige. Got my eye on the Givenchy Antigona Crocodile as well. I want them all! 😂🙌🏼
I got the ysl camera bag because due to her recommendations and I love it.
You always have the best comparison videos. I love watching your videos!
Thank you so much!
I know this has nothing to do with the video but your hair is so voluminous and beautiful 😍
Oh thank you! That is so sweet of you!
Great comparison. I don’t have the Alma but bought the Croisette in September. I haven’t used it a lot because of the weather and now it’s getting to be winter.
Alma bb you can wear any season
Love, love my Croisette in DE ♡
Same here 💕
This was fab thanks I have the alma bb and want the croisette. So seeing the comparison was really useful :) (stores are still shut!)
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this great vedio, I have one last question how many gramm of alma BB
Question amber is the croissette supposed to sit up on its own or once it’s stuffed ?
Mine actually falls forward 🫣
@@AmberAshleigh35 thank you so much! Debating between this bag or the Alma bb can’t decide 😑 lol.

thanks for watching - I haven't had any color transfer so far with jeans, but I try not to wear dark colors with it. Thanks!
Hi
You said that the croisette comes in many colors but it only comes in 2 prints.
Ebene and azur
yes that was my mistake. I misspoke
@@AmberAshleigh35 good review. Have a nice day
You have a very unique tone of voice. ALMA BB is popular in Los Angeles
Thank you
Alma BB is the winner I definitely love it so much. Thanks Amber💖💝❤️
I love both bags! I’m gonna go with Alma BB if it’s ever available 😞🧡

Love the bags but more importantly where did you get your sweater from ???
thank you so much! I got it from Shein!
The only turn off in these is the unadjustable strap. They both hit me below my waist.
💚🖤 Oooo That sweater/top makes your eyes pop, it’s gorgeous!!!!! I am loving that color green 😘😘😘 Both bags are beautiful, augh so hard to choose 🤣🤣🤣 So, I choose both 🥰🥰🥰 that’s allowed, right 🤭🤣 Love your comparison videos, I have watched many, but honestly you are very detailed and honest about what you can fit, the functionality and how to style !!!! Xxoo
aw you are so sweet - thank you so much!
Love my Croisette ..Alma is on my wish list
If the AlmaBB was available in Damier Azure it would have been a winner for me. Never been a fan of DamierEbene😢
Did the lock cause any damage to the zipper? I saw that in another video. Trust your opinion so came to ask. Love your videos btw ❤️
thanks so much! So far so good!
@@AmberAshleigh35 thanks for the reply:)
I love alma BB more!
Love the alma bb. Though this video is 2 years old can you believe from $1230 to $1620 😂 I need to purchase this bag ASAP
omg i can't believe how much its increased in price. Thanks for watching
Thank you for the great comparison 👍
I love my Alma BB ^_^ and It looks very small , but I can put a lot of things in Alma BB 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
thanks so much for watching!
Did the Croisette canvas loosen up at all? You have so much in yours but when I tried it at the store it felt so stiff to me I didn’t think it would fit my items. Thx! 😊
thanks for watching - no it is still pretty firm.
I have never liked the Alma. Looks too much like a bowling bag and too small. I like the other one better.
Great video! Happy New Year! 💝
Thank you! You too!
Wondering which item you would recommend... alma bb or kirigami escale? I currently have the escale but tossing up whether I should exchange for the alma. Would love your advice!
I would recommend the alma bb for sure.
Can you do a handbag collection video?
yes I previously did one not too long ago. Here is the link to the video: ua-cam.com/video/Kwh4bG7Owok/v-deo.html
The alma bb is such a winner❤️I own both of them but I know my fave
its such a good bag - thanks for watching!
I would love to get the Alma pm 🙈. Just more roomie.
You are very organized, informative, and cute yourself.
Very thorough comparison video. Much appreciated! 🖤
aw thanks so much for watching!
i just got the alma bb and it was 1,430 :( they raised the price
oh no - so sorry about that!
Amber Ashleigh i love your videos! your so sweet and gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️
I love the alma bb coz it has a zipper but both are expensive
Thanks Amber. The croisette is much cute though..
thanks for watching!
Great comparison video.
thank you so much for watching!
Croisette stupenda!!mia prossima borsa 😍
Thank you so much. This video has really helped me to make a decision:))
aw yay - that makes me so happy!
Thanks for the review
I wish it was still only $1200 😭 Not that it will stop me from buying it tho, 😆.
Great video btw! Very informative! 💕
Thank you so much for watching!!

Hi amber good morning happy Tuesday love💓😘😘
aw hi there - Happy Friday to you! XOXO
Omg At first glance I thought you are the “Carrie Bradshaw”😅
thanks so much
You are very helpful ❤️
I'm so glad! Thank you!
Omg i just came here to see and realize the price lv rn 1,690 but in the video 1,290 😨
wow - the price increases have been crazy lately
Do you guys know if the alma bb bags are authentic
That are from the LV boutique and all of hers are authentic. Fake bags are 👎🏼
Love both❤️
thank you - me too! xoxo
I love Alma BB
its such a good bag!
If only I could afford it I would buy it 😗
alma bb way better than croisette... croisette easy to get dirty too!
Of course alma bb 100% so elegant
❤️❤️❤️😍🥰
