I loved this video! U put so much effort in letting us know all the details about the brand. Thank you for going all out and being so informative. U are truly an awesome UA-camr! 😘😊🤗🤗
Hi Angela thank you so much for watching and leaving such kind feedback, you are so sweet :) I find that the more we understand a Brand's roots and philosophy, the more we appreciate and enjoy the designs - glad you enjoy the little bit of history! I'm actually uploading today (in 2 hours!!) my review of the Hermes Birkin i picked up in Paris. I hope this interests you :) Take care and see you again dear!
Hi Laura thank you so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Sorry for the late reply as i've been busy with the festive season - i hope you're busy having fun too :) I'm uploading again next week on my first ever LV bag from Paris so hopefully catch you again. All the best with your Gucci purchase!
The Dionysus is now a classic. Four years now since it’s release and it’s still a best seller. The design is so edgy but extremely timeless. The GG Supreme logo, the antique silver hardware and flap style is so extremely classic.
Hey there Lady Shay thanks so much for watching and sharing the news, i'm so glad to hear that!! Are you thinking of buying the Blooms print or standard GG canvas print version? Either way i hope you really enjoy adding it to your wardrobe :) Next month i'm reviewing my limited edition Gucci bag so hope to see you again if that interests you. Have a wonderful week!
Hi BalemOnMame thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, i really appreciate it!

Thank you so much Darlene for your support and i'm glad to know this gorgeous bag is on your wishlist! Later on i'll upload a video showing exactly what i can fit inside which can be useful if you prefer to take more with you :)
Hey there Miss BlueMaude thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Glad to know you enjoyed the comparison :) Next week i'm uploading my entire bag collection so my Dionysus will feature again. In a few more months (sorry i'm a slow uploader!) i'll do my video focused on what can fit inside too. Hope you have an awesome week and see you around :)
Hi Loveth Akrah thanks so much for watching and your kind feedback, i really appreciate it! I agree, learning about the history is my favourite part too and i find we appreciate the designs more as a result :) Later this month i'm uploading my review of the Gucci mid-heel loafers if that interests you. Have a good week!
As always , I enjoyed your video a lot, very informative. You made me think of getting one, lol! Looking forward to your next video, Its Hermes storytime...thanks for sharing.
Hi Pilot thanks so much for watching and I'm so glad you enjoyed the review! In terms of making sure you personally want the bag, don't rush, take another year or 2 to keep watching the market (hopefully the bag remains a fashion staple!) and seeing how other people style it. You'll know by then if it's really worth investing in :) I went through this process in the last 2yrs and was certain the bag's for me. I wouldnt want to make you impulse buy haha! See you again next month for the Birkin reveal!
Hi jayzzee1888 thanks so much for watching and leaving such kind feedback! Glad the new bag gets your tick of approval :) I like to pick pieces I find quite unique and (hopefully) timeless. Have a great month and see you again on the topic of Hermes in December!
CMK thanks, can't wait for tje next one... hope u can upload atleast two videos of your hermes bag.... have a great days ahead. Again thank you for making videos.
You are spot on - I'm planning 2 videos on the Birkin in December, hopefully a week apart in release date. I love making these videos for you guys, sorry just wish I could be faster! So thanks heaps for being patient :)
Hi WW Jackie thanks so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Hope you love your Dionysus :) Next month i'm reviewing my new LV boots so hopefully see you again if that interests you. Take care!
Thanks so much Shenoa for watching and leaving such a kind comment, i really appreciate your support!

Hi Ella thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, i really appreciate it! I love learning more about the brand and the designs, i think it makes us appreciate our bags more :) If you end up buying this bag, i hope you love it! I'm uploading tomorrow on shoe care so hopefully see you can again if that interests you. Wishing you a good week
Hey there Sirintip thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, i really appreciate your support! Aww i'm very flattered to hear that my voice is easy to listen to - i never knew this before! I wish you all the best if you're thinking of adding this bag to your wardrobe :) Next month i'm uploading my entire bag collection so hopefully see you again if that interests you. Take care!
Thank you so much dear, i really appreciate your kindness and support! Don't ever rush to watch them - they're always here :) I don't want to pressure anyone. Hope you have an amazing weekend and catch you back on IG with all your Christmas cheer!
Wonderfully informative video. I am vacillating between the supreme and blooms. You've mentioned the suede, iron work in the closure, and the blooms print in your video. Can you tell me how these have performed over time and wear? I would really love to see an updated video but since I have found a pre-loved item that I am seriously considering to buy, I would love your short and sweet written opinion as soon as possible please. Thank YOU very much!
Hey Carol D thanks so much for watching and reaching out, it's great to hear from you! My Gucci Blooms is now 1.5yrs old and hasn't aged a day - it still looks like new/like the condition in this video. However a few disclaimers: 1) I rarely use any of my luxury bags so they're largely stored away 2) I baby my bags immensely 3) My Gucci was straight from the Italian flagship so would be top tier quality (some brands have different tiers eg. LV made outside France is less reliable). Some brands are known also to start cutting corners in later releases of the same design - however one benefit of buying preloved is that you're accessing earlier stock where likely this hasn't happened yet. Hope these comments help to answer your queries? I've had NO issue with colour/print fading, hardware tarnishing, seams opening etc. Thank you for subscribing! Next month i am reviewing my Gucci loafers so hopefully that may interest you :) Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Hey Samadhi thanks so much for watching and your suggestion! There are so many videos I want to do but just never enough time haha :( Good point though as I bought some items too which I may not review eg. Ferragamo belt so I could at least showcase them. Will try to schedule it in! Take care and see you again next month :)
I totally understand love! I also have the same issue, I don't have enough time to film and edit so I haven't uploaded a video in a while! Just make a haul whenever you can!
Aww thanks heaps, that's great to know :) Sorry to hear you are also super busy! I also try to make the videos when i want to so i keep enjoying it otherwise the fun is gone - hope you can do the same? Take care and see you again soon!
I've been collecting brands like Michael Kors, Guess, Desigual etc but wanna venture into brands like LV & Chanel & the likes. I saved to buy new ones but stumbled into your channel and girl, you just gave me ideas :). Very informative and on point. I've subscribed :)
Hey there Elle Elle thanks so much for watching and leaving your comment, i really appreciate your kindness! Glad to know we're alike and like to research/fully understand your purchases before buying :) The luxury brands are a lot of fun and add the wow-factor to your outfits but beware the bigger burn on your savings. I'm always trying to find the balance. I'm uploading again next week on my first ever LV bag from Paris so hopefully that will interest you! Take care and see you again soon
Hi WinterBerries thank you so much for watching and great to hear you're a major Gucci fan! I think there's a lot of us who are just starting to be hit by the Gucci frenzy right now. Sorry I'm a slow uploader but I promise the December Birkin reveal won't disappoint! Take care and see you again soon
Hey jayzzee1888 love your enthusiasm haha :) It is a Birkin. Hopefully one day I'll get to add the Kelly to my collection...just have to work hard & save heaps first!
Hii! I’ve been looking at the Blooms Dionysus in the preloved market and found your video as I was looking for reviews. Absolutely LOVEEE this history course and review. Your voice is also so soothing! Do you still have this bag and what are your current thoughts for wear/tear, pros/cons? Thank you 💕
Hi swtestepidemik thank you so much for watching and it's great to hear from you! Really glad you enjoy learning some history, that's one of my favourite parts as well :) I must admit I sold my Dionysus Blooms last year - it was a difficult decision but i needed the funds to afford new Chanel & Hermes purchases which are at higher price points. Re wear/tear, my Dionysus Blooms was exquisite quality and still looked like new/what you see in this review. Although it's worth mentioning i purchased from the international Gucci flagship and in the earlier years when the bag launched so my bag should have been prime stock - beware some brands will cut corners as the years pass, or for stock sold in other parts of the world. Re cons, it's on the heavier side, the suede requires you to be careful which offsets the low maintenance of the canvas, and Blooms - as much as i still love it - is a seasonal look so can be strange to style in winter/autumn. I also didn't feel the need to own Blooms after i added a red & pink bag to my collection - previously, Blooms (with that pop of red/pink) served that role. Finally i found Gucci bags to not hold much resale value since their retail pricing stays affordable - i've since collected more Chanel & Hermes for this investment growth reason. In terms of pros, it's still a beautiful bag and Blooms keeps it unique/youthful/classic yet with a vintage flair. Just that owning 16 handbags means i had to let 1 go! I'll be uploading later this month a review of the Hermes Kelly 25 vs 28 so hopefully see you again if that interests you :) Take care and hope you had a wonderful Easter!
Hey Luv1234 thank you so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment! I really appreciate your support. I absolutely adore this bag so i hope my enthusiasm shows through :) Later today i'm uploading my first ever LV bag review so hope you check it out if it interests you. Take care!
Hey Jace Life thank you so much for watching and leaving such kind feedback! It is a Birkin :) I told the SA in Paris that I would take either but unfortunately I was not offered a Kelly. Will reveal everything in detail very soon! Take care
Great video as always! The bag is gorgeous! I’ve ordered the super mini but it was just way too small. Now I can’t decide whether I want to do the wallet on chain or mini lol.
Hey rxgirl2010 thanks so much for watching!! Wow I have to admit I didn't even know about the super mini, that must be tiny. Are you able to try on the bags in store? I suppose the mini would feel more like a handbag as the mini chain/woc would still feel quite small...let me know what you decide!
CMK unfortunately there isn’t a Gucci boutique where I live. I may just have to wait til my next European trip to try it on. Does your bag have a nice weight to it?
Hi Ijlal thanks so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, I really appreciate it! I can understand the challenge - Gucci is constantly putting out all sorts of exciting bags so it can be hard to choose. This thursday I'm uploading 30 travel tips but next month's video will be a new Gucci bag I picked up so you may be interested :) Happy new year!
@@cmk7585 yes... I'm a nurse and I had a 86yr old patient today who work for Gucci in New York in 1976 lol... So he was giving me the history on the brand .. Pretty cool . ill watch for your upcoming vd
Hey there walid barash thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, really appreciate your support :) Personally i feel like the most classic Gucci bag (that will hopefully be timeless) is the marmont shoulder bag (Chanel-esque) but i personally find the GG logo too intense so i liked the more subtle branding on the dionysus series. Fingers crossed it will become a classic! Many of Gucci's small bags (marmont belt bag, gucci soho) have been popular as they're also more affordable but i'm not sure they are exactly an investment...? Maybe it's just me but i find that small bags can be more of a trend. In Sydney it appears that the Gucci top handle bags (like Sylvie) are less common, alongside the padlock hardware options....so i guess if you want the safest investment, i would say the Marmont shoulder bag? Next week i'm uploading my entire bag collection so hopefully see you again if that interests you. All the best with deciding, it's not easy!
Thank you so much Marilyn for all your love and support on YT and IG! Starting to work hard on my Hermes video so hopefully it will be up early December. I'm planning 2 videos next month too :D Have a great week!
Sooo nice to see you! Your bag is gorgeous! I thought I already left a comment but I don't see it here so I am leaving another to make sure you know just how much your videos are enjoyed.(hopefully it didn't go on another video by mistake...lol) Take care😘
Hey there birdiebirk thank you so so much for your super sweetness and amazing support! I don't deserve all your love on IG and YT, you really are a ray of sunshine. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and new bag (only way i can repay you!). I've been busy but hopefully can plan some styling photos on IG in the upcoming weeks. Also been working hard on next month's Birkin video so aim to upload that early Dec :) I hope you are well on your side of the world and have an amazing week! Also don't worry YT does do weird glitchy things sometimes! Thanks heaps for commenting twice just to reach me, i really appreciate it dear
Hello. Great video! I have the same bag. With regards to the spots on blooms, I have the same issue...I think it has gotten dirty. I had a wallet and it did the same. Have tried to clean it to no avail. Ideas?
Hi EveryDayFun thanks so much for checking out my video and leaving your comments. Oh no you think the canvas really got dirty! I'm quite dumbfounded since i bought the bag overseas and kept it inside its dust bag for the entire month we were travelling...it never saw light! I haven't tried cleaning it yet but next time i'm in the city i'm going to pass by the Gucci boutique and ask the SA, plus compare my bag to the Blooms they would have on display. I'll let you know how that goes! This thursday i'm uploading my Hermes Birkin video so hopefully see you again if that interests you :) Take care
Hi Anita you flatter me too much, thank you for being so sweet. I must admit i'm grateful to my parents for the voice they've given me - didn't realise until i started YT that my voice is easy to listen to! Wishing you a great week ahead :)
Hi, i really like how you do your video content..very informative and i seriously dont mind lengthy since I feel like youre telling story.🙂..i have this bag in same size but i choose leather because of the extra stones and I really love it..it makes me not want to buy chanel flap anymore.please do more handbag videos such as this..
Hi wahidah azelan thanks so much for watching and leaving such kind feedback! I really appreciate your support and glad to know you don't mind the lecture style haha :) Great pick with the leather dionysus, they are all gorgeous models! I totally agree with you on the new perpective of Chanel - as Chanel's prices keep rising and their quality decreases, the well priced, well made Gucci bags seem like such a better option! I am working hard on my Hermes Birkin video which i aim to upload early December so see you again soon :) All the best and take care!
Hi Blue Moon thank you for stopping by! I actually sold my Dionysus Blooms last year - not because i tired of the aesthetic (i still love the Dionysus design & Blooms is my favourite variation) but simply because i needed the funds for new Chanel & Hermes bags which were at a higher price point. The main problem with Blooms is that it's got a seasonal feel so feels strange to wear during winter/autumn - and the pop of red/pink hues doesn't work with all outfits. How many bags do you own/rotate? Naturally the more you own, the more you'll be comfortable with the Dionysus fitting a niche spot in your collection eg. Blooms was my only 'print' bag design and only red/pink bag (at the time). If you own less bags, you likely will want to wear the Dionysus more often so neutral is best for versatility ie. biege. I'll be uploading later this month a review of the Hermes Kelly 25 vs 28 so hopefully see you again if that interests you :) Take care and hope you had a wonderful Easter!
Wow that's fascinating, thanks so much for sharing that size comparison info. Looking forward to seeing you rocking it on your IG :) I know you're busy so no rush!
Hey there Caroline thank you so much for watching! Sure here's the link: www.chandeliercreative.com/article/the-gucci-menagerie. Hope you enjoy the read and best of luck if you're thinking of adding the bag to your collection :) Have an awesome week
The Gucci Dionysus is simply gorgeous. It will be a while before I can save up for one but I am hoping I will get the style I want on the preloved market. Keep up the great intellectual reviews. They are so helpful.
Thank you for your kind feedback, i really appreciate it! Yes buying preloved (from a reputable seller) is always a great buy, your dream bag will pop up with time :) and it's good you have time to wait!
Sorry I saw this so late, been busy. Anyway, love, love your review. I always love that you talk extensively about the background of the brand since it shows how much you appreciate the brands history and artistry! The bag is gorgeous! The only thing I don't like about the dionysius is the clasp, I had a hard time opening and closing it when I had mine. My sister was happy to get my bag from me! LOL! And since I'm older and have more stuff to put into it, the satchel works for me better. I find that my Chanel medium and boy works better for my dressier affairs.I love gucci shoes and bought 2 this year (the most I bought for 1 brand)! LOL! Good tip on the box too! Didn't know that, I always folded the boxes, now I know better! Thank you dear!
Hey Vel so good to see you again! No problem at all - i feel really bad if you feel pressure to watch my videos quickly, that's not my intention! Plus we can stalk each other all the time on IG :) Sad to hear the clasp was annoying for you but glad to know it's found a good home! Yes i totally agree with you that i don't really see this bag as appropriate for dressier affairs - it's very daytime. I don't own any Gucci shoes yet but i love love love the loafer with medium block heel so hopefully i can snatch that up next time i'm overseas (Australia's too pricey for luxury goods!). Yes i'm glad to know you're a fellow gift box collector and it really is heart breaking to have to destroy a box just to bring it home! Hope you can test out this trick on your next holiday :) I'm uploading my birkin review next thursday so see you again dear - take your time and have a great weekend ahead! Catch you back on IG
Ah can't wait to see it in action some time! Although there are very few birkin-worthy occassions in life haha..I ended up selling off my first Birkin since it wasn't the colour I wanted! Kinda wish I still had it so I can do a size comparison video...the new one is larger :) Have an amazing weekend!
Thanks so much WASP1919! It's good to be back :) I hope this new video was interesting for you. Otherwise see you next month to discuss my new Birkin from Paris! Take care
Thanks so much for watching Fashionatforty!! Really appreciate your time and kind feedback. Sorry i'm such a slow uploader but i'll make sure there are 2 videos in December on the Hermes Birkin :) Take care in the meantime! See you next month
Hi Trine thank you so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Later this month i'll be uploading my tips for how i scored the Hermes Kelly in Paris (non-flagship store) if that interests you. Hope you have a great week!
Hi Linny thanks so much for watching and your kind feedback, i really appreciate it :) I'm a slow uploader but early December i'll be sharing my review of the Hermes Birkin i bought in Paris. I hope this interests you and i'll see you again. Have a great friday and weekend ahead!
Hey Elle thanks so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Next month i'll be uploading a 101 on Diet & Fitness if that interests you :) Wishing you a good week
I’m going to Florence at the end of March. I’m trying to decide between this bag and the Chanel coco top handle. Where is the best place to buy either bag in Florence?
Hey Christina thanks so much for watching and sharing your experience! Florence late March is such a gorgeous time of year to visit :) To be honest i don't really know much about the shopping options there. All boutiques should give you 10% tax back. It would be useful if you look into whether there's a department store in Florence that stocks all the luxury brands and can give you a welcome discount eg. when i visited in 2016, Harrods London offers 10% off unlimited numbers of luxury items for a month once your first purchase is over 500 pounds. You may also want to consider other Italian cities like Milan since they're only a fast speed train ride away...I'm uploading my entire luxury bag collection today so hopefully catch you again if that interests you. Have a good week
I’m sorry I didn’t see your comment in time for your trip....but I hope you found out about The MAll outlet mall in Florence! They have a wonderful Gucci outlet store along with Prada and many others. Of course this bag wouldn’t be at an outlet but they have many other great styles, along with accessories. Did you go? Thanks.
Thanks so much for being my first comment!! Wow you're so fast :D Yes I agree with you, I am totally relaxed and it felt good to get in front of the camera again. See you and your beautiful daughter back on IG, take care!!
Hi Ariane Schnitzler thanks for stopping by! I got asked a similar question about 2 months ago when i answered below - FYI: I must admit I sold my Dionysus Blooms last year - it was a difficult decision but i needed the funds to afford new Chanel & Hermes purchases which are at higher price points. Re cons, it's on the heavier side, the suede requires you to be careful which offsets the low maintenance of the canvas, and Blooms - as much as i still love it - is a seasonal look so can be strange to style in winter/autumn. I also didn't feel the need to own Blooms after i added a red & pink bag to my collection - previously, Blooms (with that pop of red/pink) served that role. Finally i found Gucci bags to not hold much resale value since their retail pricing stays affordable - i've since collected more Chanel & Hermes for this investment growth reason. In terms of pros, it's still a beautiful bag and Blooms keeps it unique/youthful/classic yet with a vintage flair. Just that owning 16 handbags means i had to let 1 go! I am taking a break from YT due to my baby's arrival but hope we'll cross paths again in the future when i return :) Take care!
Great Video. I can’t wait for the Birkin reveal. I have bought and returned the suede Dionysus about a year ago, I was not sure and I didn’t want to invest in a seasonal bag. And surprisingly, ever since that time I have been observing the market to see if I made a mistake by returning the bag. The Dionysus bloom definitely has a long long way to go before it can be given the status of “The Bag” from the house of Gucci. But, I think it is definitely going in that direction, I spot these bags all the time and feel like such a loser for letting it go 😝
Hi ADA thanks so much for watching and sharing your story with me! The Dionysus was so hot that I feel like I'm finally joining the club super duper late haha. I'm sorry you feel that way with your bag but I guess the good news is that it will probably remain a permanent collection so you never have to 'rush' to get one. As a new bag it's probably most wise to miss out on the fun (:P) and wait a few more years to check the style really sticks. I'm taking a gamble on this haha so let's see what happens...see you back on IG!
Hi Karen thank you so much for watching and leaving such a sweet comment, i really appreciate your support! I am taking a small break from YT to spend time with my newborn son but hopefully see you again when i return :) Happy 2020!
Hey M. Han thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! So true, he gave old school Gucci the shock factor! It really put Gucci back on the map for a lot of us, especially the younger market. In general i love all of Gucci's collaborations/style infusions so i'm looking forward to what they have planned next :)

I can’t believe I have only just got round to catching up with your vids. You put so much information into your videos, 5*****. x
Thank you so much dear, i really appreciate your kindness and support! Don't ever rush to watch them - they're always here :) I don't want to pressure anyone. Hope you have an amazing weekend and catch you back on IG with all your Christmas cheer!
Wonderfully informative video. I am vacillating between the supreme and blooms. You've mentioned the suede, iron work in the closure, and the blooms print in your video. Can you tell me how these have performed over time and wear? I would really love to see an updated video but since I have found a pre-loved item that I am seriously considering to buy, I would love your short and sweet written opinion as soon as possible please. Thank YOU very much!
Subscribed and liked your video as well. I look forward to seeing all your other relevant uploads.
Hey Carol D thanks so much for watching and reaching out, it's great to hear from you! My Gucci Blooms is now 1.5yrs old and hasn't aged a day - it still looks like new/like the condition in this video. However a few disclaimers: 1) I rarely use any of my luxury bags so they're largely stored away 2) I baby my bags immensely 3) My Gucci was straight from the Italian flagship so would be top tier quality (some brands have different tiers eg. LV made outside France is less reliable). Some brands are known also to start cutting corners in later releases of the same design - however one benefit of buying preloved is that you're accessing earlier stock where likely this hasn't happened yet. Hope these comments help to answer your queries? I've had NO issue with colour/print fading, hardware tarnishing, seams opening etc. Thank you for subscribing! Next month i am reviewing my Gucci loafers so hopefully that may interest you :) Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Yay glad your back on camera! Please do a haul!
Hey Samadhi thanks so much for watching and your suggestion! There are so many videos I want to do but just never enough time haha :( Good point though as I bought some items too which I may not review eg. Ferragamo belt so I could at least showcase them. Will try to schedule it in! Take care and see you again next month :)
I totally understand love! I also have the same issue, I don't have enough time to film and edit so I haven't uploaded a video in a while! Just make a haul whenever you can!
Aww thanks heaps, that's great to know :) Sorry to hear you are also super busy! I also try to make the videos when i want to so i keep enjoying it otherwise the fun is gone - hope you can do the same? Take care and see you again soon!
I've been collecting brands like Michael Kors, Guess, Desigual etc but wanna venture into brands like LV & Chanel & the likes. I saved to buy new ones but stumbled into your channel and girl, you just gave me ideas :). Very informative and on point. I've subscribed :)
Hey there Elle Elle thanks so much for watching and leaving your comment, i really appreciate your kindness! Glad to know we're alike and like to research/fully understand your purchases before buying :) The luxury brands are a lot of fun and add the wow-factor to your outfits but beware the bigger burn on your savings. I'm always trying to find the balance. I'm uploading again next week on my first ever LV bag from Paris so hopefully that will interest you! Take care and see you again soon
I absolutely LOVE Gucci and I'm so happy you like the bag!! Can't wait for the Birkin reveal 😱!
WinterBerries wonder if is it a birkin or a kelly?
Hi WinterBerries thank you so much for watching and great to hear you're a major Gucci fan! I think there's a lot of us who are just starting to be hit by the Gucci frenzy right now. Sorry I'm a slow uploader but I promise the December Birkin reveal won't disappoint! Take care and see you again soon
Hey jayzzee1888 love your enthusiasm haha :) It is a Birkin. Hopefully one day I'll get to add the Kelly to my collection...just have to work hard & save heaps first!
Hii! I’ve been looking at the Blooms Dionysus in the preloved market and found your video as I was looking for reviews. Absolutely LOVEEE this history course and review. Your voice is also so soothing! Do you still have this bag and what are your current thoughts for wear/tear, pros/cons? Thank you 💕
Hi swtestepidemik thank you so much for watching and it's great to hear from you! Really glad you enjoy learning some history, that's one of my favourite parts as well :) I must admit I sold my Dionysus Blooms last year - it was a difficult decision but i needed the funds to afford new Chanel & Hermes purchases which are at higher price points. Re wear/tear, my Dionysus Blooms was exquisite quality and still looked like new/what you see in this review. Although it's worth mentioning i purchased from the international Gucci flagship and in the earlier years when the bag launched so my bag should have been prime stock - beware some brands will cut corners as the years pass, or for stock sold in other parts of the world. Re cons, it's on the heavier side, the suede requires you to be careful which offsets the low maintenance of the canvas, and Blooms - as much as i still love it - is a seasonal look so can be strange to style in winter/autumn. I also didn't feel the need to own Blooms after i added a red & pink bag to my collection - previously, Blooms (with that pop of red/pink) served that role. Finally i found Gucci bags to not hold much resale value since their retail pricing stays affordable - i've since collected more Chanel & Hermes for this investment growth reason. In terms of pros, it's still a beautiful bag and Blooms keeps it unique/youthful/classic yet with a vintage flair. Just that owning 16 handbags means i had to let 1 go! I'll be uploading later this month a review of the Hermes Kelly 25 vs 28 so hopefully see you again if that interests you :) Take care and hope you had a wonderful Easter!
Wow, this is the best video on the internet regarding reviews.
Hey Luv1234 thank you so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment! I really appreciate your support. I absolutely adore this bag so i hope my enthusiasm shows through :) Later today i'm uploading my first ever LV bag review so hope you check it out if it interests you. Take care!
Yehey, great video and I enjoyed watching every review you do. Cant wait for your Hermes bag... hmmm Is it a Birkin or a Kelly?
Hey Jace Life thank you so much for watching and leaving such kind feedback! It is a Birkin :) I told the SA in Paris that I would take either but unfortunately I was not offered a Kelly. Will reveal everything in detail very soon! Take care
Great video as always! The bag is gorgeous! I’ve ordered the super mini but it was just way too small. Now I can’t decide whether I want to do the wallet on chain or mini lol.
Hey rxgirl2010 thanks so much for watching!! Wow I have to admit I didn't even know about the super mini, that must be tiny. Are you able to try on the bags in store? I suppose the mini would feel more like a handbag as the mini chain/woc would still feel quite small...let me know what you decide!
CMK unfortunately there isn’t a Gucci boutique where I live. I may just have to wait til my next European trip to try it on. Does your bag have a nice weight to it?
perfect review... well detail and this help me narrow my Gucci luxury bag purchase. thank you
Hi Ijlal thanks so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, I really appreciate it! I can understand the challenge - Gucci is constantly putting out all sorts of exciting bags so it can be hard to choose. This thursday I'm uploading 30 travel tips but next month's video will be a new Gucci bag I picked up so you may be interested :) Happy new year!
@@cmk7585 yes... I'm a nurse and I had a 86yr old patient today who work for Gucci in New York in 1976 lol... So he was giving me the history on the brand .. Pretty cool . ill watch for your upcoming vd
Love your videos I want to buy one the Gucci bags what you think I should invest in
Hey there walid barash thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment, really appreciate your support :) Personally i feel like the most classic Gucci bag (that will hopefully be timeless) is the marmont shoulder bag (Chanel-esque) but i personally find the GG logo too intense so i liked the more subtle branding on the dionysus series. Fingers crossed it will become a classic! Many of Gucci's small bags (marmont belt bag, gucci soho) have been popular as they're also more affordable but i'm not sure they are exactly an investment...? Maybe it's just me but i find that small bags can be more of a trend. In Sydney it appears that the Gucci top handle bags (like Sylvie) are less common, alongside the padlock hardware options....so i guess if you want the safest investment, i would say the Marmont shoulder bag?
Next week i'm uploading my entire bag collection so hopefully see you again if that interests you. All the best with deciding, it's not easy!
long been waiting 😉😘😁❤️🙌..love this ..keep it coming
Thank you so much Marilyn for all your love and support on YT and IG! Starting to work hard on my Hermes video so hopefully it will be up early December. I'm planning 2 videos next month too :D Have a great week!
Sooo nice to see you! Your bag is gorgeous! I thought I already left a comment but I don't see it here so I am leaving another to make sure you know just how much your videos are enjoyed.(hopefully it didn't go on another video by mistake...lol) Take care😘
Hey there birdiebirk thank you so so much for your super sweetness and amazing support! I don't deserve all your love on IG and YT, you really are a ray of sunshine. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and new bag (only way i can repay you!). I've been busy but hopefully can plan some styling photos on IG in the upcoming weeks. Also been working hard on next month's Birkin video so aim to upload that early Dec :) I hope you are well on your side of the world and have an amazing week!
Also don't worry YT does do weird glitchy things sometimes! Thanks heaps for commenting twice just to reach me, i really appreciate it dear
Girllll, welcome back dear love you .
Hey Evelyn thanks so much and I love you too!! So glad you're free now with your Masters degree in hand :D Yes we are twinning!!!!
Hello. Great video! I have the same bag. With regards to the spots on blooms, I have the same issue...I think it has gotten dirty. I had a wallet and it did the same. Have tried to clean it to no avail. Ideas?
Hi EveryDayFun thanks so much for checking out my video and leaving your comments. Oh no you think the canvas really got dirty! I'm quite dumbfounded since i bought the bag overseas and kept it inside its dust bag for the entire month we were travelling...it never saw light! I haven't tried cleaning it yet but next time i'm in the city i'm going to pass by the Gucci boutique and ask the SA, plus compare my bag to the Blooms they would have on display. I'll let you know how that goes! This thursday i'm uploading my Hermes Birkin video so hopefully see you again if that interests you :) Take care
How much does each bag weigh without anything in it? Thank you
Love your voice and your review. You sound like royalty!
Hi Anita you flatter me too much, thank you for being so sweet. I must admit i'm grateful to my parents for the voice they've given me - didn't realise until i started YT that my voice is easy to listen to! Wishing you a great week ahead :)
Hi, i really like how you do your video content..very informative and i seriously dont mind lengthy since I feel like youre telling story.🙂..i have this bag in same size but i choose leather because of the extra stones and I really love it..it makes me not want to buy chanel flap anymore.please do more handbag videos such as this..
Hi wahidah azelan thanks so much for watching and leaving such kind feedback! I really appreciate your support and glad to know you don't mind the lecture style haha :) Great pick with the leather dionysus, they are all gorgeous models! I totally agree with you on the new perpective of Chanel - as Chanel's prices keep rising and their quality decreases, the well priced, well made Gucci bags seem like such a better option! I am working hard on my Hermes Birkin video which i aim to upload early December so see you again soon :) All the best and take care!
Do u still like the bloom print ? If u were to buy it again which color which I choose?
Hi Blue Moon thank you for stopping by! I actually sold my Dionysus Blooms last year - not because i tired of the aesthetic (i still love the Dionysus design & Blooms is my favourite variation) but simply because i needed the funds for new Chanel & Hermes bags which were at a higher price point. The main problem with Blooms is that it's got a seasonal feel so feels strange to wear during winter/autumn - and the pop of red/pink hues doesn't work with all outfits. How many bags do you own/rotate? Naturally the more you own, the more you'll be comfortable with the Dionysus fitting a niche spot in your collection eg. Blooms was my only 'print' bag design and only red/pink bag (at the time). If you own less bags, you likely will want to wear the Dionysus more often so neutral is best for versatility ie. biege. I'll be uploading later this month a review of the Hermes Kelly 25 vs 28 so hopefully see you again if that interests you :) Take care and hope you had a wonderful Easter!
You know my Gucci Dionysus in the medium size and my CHANEL jumbo are almost the same size. Love the video, we’re twinning.
Wow that's fascinating, thanks so much for sharing that size comparison info. Looking forward to seeing you rocking it on your IG :) I know you're busy so no rush!
Can you please link us to the Gucci article you mentioned, thanks!
Hey there Caroline thank you so much for watching! Sure here's the link: www.chandeliercreative.com/article/the-gucci-menagerie. Hope you enjoy the read and best of luck if you're thinking of adding the bag to your collection :) Have an awesome week
The Gucci Dionysus is simply gorgeous. It will be a while before I can save up for one but I am hoping I will get the style I want on the preloved market. Keep up the great intellectual reviews. They are so helpful.
Thank you for your kind feedback, i really appreciate it! Yes buying preloved (from a reputable seller) is always a great buy, your dream bag will pop up with time :) and it's good you have time to wait!
Sorry I saw this so late, been busy. Anyway, love, love your review. I always love that you talk extensively about the background of the brand since it shows how much you appreciate the brands history and artistry! The bag is gorgeous! The only thing I don't like about the dionysius is the clasp, I had a hard time opening and closing it when I had mine. My sister was happy to get my bag from me! LOL! And since I'm older and have more stuff to put into it, the satchel works for me better. I find that my Chanel medium and boy works better for my dressier affairs.I love gucci shoes and bought 2 this year (the most I bought for 1 brand)! LOL! Good tip on the box too! Didn't know that, I always folded the boxes, now I know better! Thank you dear!
Hey Vel so good to see you again! No problem at all - i feel really bad if you feel pressure to watch my videos quickly, that's not my intention! Plus we can stalk each other all the time on IG :) Sad to hear the clasp was annoying for you but glad to know it's found a good home! Yes i totally agree with you that i don't really see this bag as appropriate for dressier affairs - it's very daytime. I don't own any Gucci shoes yet but i love love love the loafer with medium block heel so hopefully i can snatch that up next time i'm overseas (Australia's too pricey for luxury goods!). Yes i'm glad to know you're a fellow gift box collector and it really is heart breaking to have to destroy a box just to bring it home! Hope you can test out this trick on your next holiday :) I'm uploading my birkin review next thursday so see you again dear - take your time and have a great weekend ahead! Catch you back on IG
So excited to see your birkin and how you snagged one! Mine is a second hand score just like your first one.
Ah can't wait to see it in action some time! Although there are very few birkin-worthy occassions in life haha..I ended up selling off my first Birkin since it wasn't the colour I wanted! Kinda wish I still had it so I can do a size comparison video...the new one is larger :) Have an amazing weekend!
Welcome back
Thanks so much WASP1919! It's good to be back :) I hope this new video was interesting for you. Otherwise see you next month to discuss my new Birkin from Paris! Take care
Love your video. It's fab. More please x
Thanks so much for watching Fashionatforty!! Really appreciate your time and kind feedback. Sorry i'm such a slow uploader but i'll make sure there are 2 videos in December on the Hermes Birkin :) Take care in the meantime! See you next month
Thank you for a very good and informative video!
Hi Trine thank you so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Later this month i'll be uploading my tips for how i scored the Hermes Kelly in Paris (non-flagship store) if that interests you. Hope you have a great week!
Very informative video. Can't wait for the Hermes video 😊
Thanks so much Nina! Will get busy preparing my Birkin video asap. See you and your gorgeous Chanels back on IG!
I'm uploading video's as we speak. Look forward to your next one.
Wonderful video! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and opinions. 💕
Hi Linny thanks so much for watching and your kind feedback, i really appreciate it :) I'm a slow uploader but early December i'll be sharing my review of the Hermes Birkin i bought in Paris. I hope this interests you and i'll see you again. Have a great friday and weekend ahead!
A great review 😘
Hey Elle thanks so much for watching and leaving a kind comment, i really appreciate it! Next month i'll be uploading a 101 on Diet & Fitness if that interests you :) Wishing you a good week
I’m going to Florence at the end of March. I’m trying to decide between this bag and the Chanel coco top handle. Where is the best place to buy either bag in Florence?
Hey Christina thanks so much for watching and sharing your experience! Florence late March is such a gorgeous time of year to visit :) To be honest i don't really know much about the shopping options there. All boutiques should give you 10% tax back. It would be useful if you look into whether there's a department store in Florence that stocks all the luxury brands and can give you a welcome discount eg. when i visited in 2016, Harrods London offers 10% off unlimited numbers of luxury items for a month once your first purchase is over 500 pounds. You may also want to consider other Italian cities like Milan since they're only a fast speed train ride away...I'm uploading my entire luxury bag collection today so hopefully catch you again if that interests you. Have a good week
I’m sorry I didn’t see your comment in time for your trip....but I hope you found out about The MAll outlet mall in Florence! They have a wonderful Gucci outlet store along with Prada and many others. Of course this bag wouldn’t be at an outlet but they have many other great styles, along with accessories. Did you go? Thanks.
Yay😍😍😍😍😍😍you look so relaxed and recharged💋✨☀️from your grandiose holiday ever😍😍
Thanks so much for being my first comment!! Wow you're so fast :D Yes I agree with you, I am totally relaxed and it felt good to get in front of the camera again. See you and your beautiful daughter back on IG, take care!!
Do you still love & use the bag?:)
Hi Ariane Schnitzler thanks for stopping by! I got asked a similar question about 2 months ago when i answered below - FYI:
I must admit I sold my Dionysus Blooms last year - it was a difficult decision but i needed the funds to afford new Chanel & Hermes purchases which are at higher price points. Re cons, it's on the heavier side, the suede requires you to be careful which offsets the low maintenance of the canvas, and Blooms - as much as i still love it - is a seasonal look so can be strange to style in winter/autumn. I also didn't feel the need to own Blooms after i added a red & pink bag to my collection - previously, Blooms (with that pop of red/pink) served that role. Finally i found Gucci bags to not hold much resale value since their retail pricing stays affordable - i've since collected more Chanel & Hermes for this investment growth reason. In terms of pros, it's still a beautiful bag and Blooms keeps it unique/youthful/classic yet with a vintage flair. Just that owning 16 handbags means i had to let 1 go!
I am taking a break from YT due to my baby's arrival but hope we'll cross paths again in the future when i return :) Take care!
Great Video. I can’t wait for the Birkin reveal. I have bought and returned the suede Dionysus about a year ago, I was not sure and I didn’t want to invest in a seasonal bag. And surprisingly, ever since that time I have been observing the market to see if I made a mistake by returning the bag. The Dionysus bloom definitely has a long long way to go before it can be given the status of “The Bag” from the house of Gucci. But, I think it is definitely going in that direction, I spot these bags all the time and feel like such a loser for letting it go 😝
Hi ADA thanks so much for watching and sharing your story with me! The Dionysus was so hot that I feel like I'm finally joining the club super duper late haha. I'm sorry you feel that way with your bag but I guess the good news is that it will probably remain a permanent collection so you never have to 'rush' to get one. As a new bag it's probably most wise to miss out on the fun (:P) and wait a few more years to check the style really sticks. I'm taking a gamble on this haha so let's see what happens...see you back on IG!
Love you!!!
Hi Karen thank you so much for watching and leaving such a sweet comment, i really appreciate your support! I am taking a small break from YT to spend time with my newborn son but hopefully see you again when i return :) Happy 2020!
I really like the time when Tom Ford was in Gucci...haha!!!!
Hey M. Han thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! So true, he gave old school Gucci the shock factor! It really put Gucci back on the map for a lot of us, especially the younger market. In general i love all of Gucci's collaborations/style infusions so i'm looking forward to what they have planned next :)
