I agree with you. I have a lot of monogram bags. I never thought I would want understated bags, but lately I have been gravitating towards “if you know, you know” bag. Love how your Neuf Mini looks on you. Such a cute dumpling/croissant.
Isn’t it funny how we gravitate towards loud prints & then understated? I go through this with clothing too! Sometimes I’m in all black & sometimes I’m in hot pink 😆
I was introduced to Polene a few weeks ago via IG. I saw the Number 9 bag and fell completely in love!!! I now own four bags and I’m OBSESSED. Polene takes so much pride in the quality of their dust bag, so you know the actual handbags are of great quality. Great review!!
@@tesluxe I know this so beyond sad, but I have three Number Nine’s in the regular size black, beige and blush. I also have the Number One is green normal size. I plan to buy the mini version as well for Spring and Summer to wear cross body. The normal size bags are too big for my body size to wear crossbody, so I use as top handle bags only. I did add a silk scarf and it looks nice, I like your chain strap that was a great idea.
I LOVE the black, beige, and blush colors so I am right there with you! If you find a style you love, why WOULDN'T you want ever color? That's how I feel about the longchamp le pliage! Give me alll the colors LOL. I also agree most of the normal sizes are too large to be crossbody. They just look a little bit off... not sure how else to explain it. I love all the minis. I am going to consider adding silk scarfs! I bet that totally elevates them too.
It’s one of the most supple black leathers I’ve ever seen & felt! But they also have many different colors if you still aren’t into black. So many polene bags in my wishlist.
@@tesluxe I have it currently in Chalk and it’s beautiful. I love it more than I thought I would! Torn between Black and Sandalwood as my 2nd Mini Neuf, though I’d not be surprised if I end up getting both 🥲
I completely understand why!! I am loving the quality and lower pricing. Not to say designer doesn’t have a special place in my heart, but this is like a breath of fresh air. Don’t know how else to describe it 🙌🏻
I love this question! I personally don't have much experience with UK brands (though this is something I would love to focus on this year). I believe Strausberry is from the UK - which is a brand high on my radar at the moment!
YOU ARE SO SWEET 🥹 I’ve been using the Dior Backstage Foundation and really loving it! Also switched from Milk cream contour to the Charlotte Tibury contour & blush wands.
Hello my beautiful friend! Love the new setting! I like both settings. Polene is such fantastic quality. It’s so luxurious. Are they made in Spain? Both bags are so so pretty in their own ways. The dustbags and boxes literally look nicer than LV boxes and dustbags. Love the chain you added to the neuf. Ahh so pretty and thanks for the mention ❤
Hello my beautiful friend!! Thank you so much! Unfortunately (or fortunately) I haven’t had the opportunity to film in my normal set up so I’ve been making due with what l have 🙌🏻 Yes, both bags were made in Spain! The boxes and dust bags are absolutely giving luxury brands a run for their money. I love the overall experience of ordering from them.
On the Neuf lacking purse feet, that would have really added to the design. Purse feet hardware would be a VERY nominal cost during manufacturing and aren't difficult to install.

I love that!!! Which four did you get? Any recommendations on what I should pick up next? Polene blew me away!!

you know me well girl! this is on my wishlist.
I love the Neuf Mini and even though I’m usually not into black bags, it looks so good in black. The leather and design really are special!

A beautiful black bag I need to add this to my wishlist. Thanks for sharing beautiful 🥰
Thank you for watching! It’s a beautiful bag and a great price point. Definitely a wishlist worthy item! 🥰
Get the Strathberry! I ordered the Multrees WOC and it's beautiful! Kate Middleton has two of those.
I definitely think I’ll be adding the East West Baguette to my collection this year!
Both of the bags are so cute. I really favor the micro bag. It is adorable. I love how it pops open.
I’ve actually used it even more than expected for far. It’s so cute and surprisingly fits more than you’d think 🙌🏻
@@tesluxe I’m going to just go on the website just to look! 😊
Did you find one you love?
Absolutely stunning! I am 100% gravitating more towards mid-range handbag brands and low branding. Very classy ❤
I completely understand why!! I am loving the quality and lower pricing. Not to say designer doesn’t have a special place in my heart, but this is like a breath of fresh air. Don’t know how else to describe it 🙌🏻
Where are you earrings from? ☺️
Okayyy you talked me into it. Added to my wishlist
Hahaha the amount of bags on my wishlist because of you… it’s only fair 😆🤣❤️
And the micro un fits a ton!! Wow!
It truly blew me away!!!
The polene micro is so cute 😘 Do you think a Samsung Z Flip will fit in? Thank you 😊
that's a good question... I don't believe it would but I've never seen that phone in person so I'm not totally sure!
@@tesluxe Thank you anw 😊 Your videos are really interesting and useful 💐
Do you have any recommendations for good quality UK leather bags?
I love this question! I personally don't have much experience with UK brands (though this is something I would love to focus on this year). I believe Strausberry is from the UK - which is a brand high on my radar at the moment!
How to Carry Your Phone Comfortably When Using a Micro Bag?
Love Polene! Can you post the link for the chain? Love the look!
Added to the description 🖤 But sadly it’s currently out of stock 😔
So you look especially lovely in this video! What make up are you using, especially your lipstick?
YOU ARE SO SWEET 🥹 I’ve been using the Dior Backstage Foundation and really loving it! Also switched from Milk cream contour to the Charlotte Tibury contour & blush wands.
Wow..so beautiful bag... so elegance
Very elegant! I recommend it. 🥰
@@tesluxe 😍👍
Does the neuf mini hold a small water bottle?
It would have to be very tiny. The opening is just super narrow!
love this bag - so tempted!
It’s a great bag!!

Maybe Polene will upgrade the style one day to include feet!
First!!
