"And that, is Pro, no, Con No. 3.... It's a Con, it's negative." haha! Love your genuine way of speaking. It never feels scripted. Keep up the good work!
Fabulous thank you Emma. Like yourself I’m a huge fan of the older Celine designs by Phoebe Philo. Her bags are timeless and this one is no exception. Thanks for introducing me to it!
Beautiful bag. I think it would be a great idea if you got together with a brand and designed your own perfect leather bag like you did with the blazer.
Yeees! 😍
Top idea 👏🏻
Yaaas!!
I will buy anything she will do ❤️
Watch out Phoebe P...! Or a PP/EH collaboration?!
Great review! I use this as a work bag and I love it! The pros and cons you mentioned were spot on. Also, I never knew that you could use the two side ties to completely change the shape of the bag!
Those handbag holders are fantastic. I have so many styles of them and have been using them for over 10 years. They also work on chairs (not just tables) provided the seat of the chair is not too 'high'. Very handy and they keep our 'expensive' bags off some dirty floors! Thank you for featuring them. 😊😊
My mind was 🤯 when I first found them 😂
Thanks for this review Emma. I also purchased the burgundy earlier this year from the Real Real. Exquisitely crafted handbag, my only con is the weight. I have the medium and do find it to be a bit heavy once I fill, however - its a keeper :)
I stumbled across your channel a few months ago and being a black woman who is retired and living in South Carolina, i did not expect to enjoy your videos as much as I have. I like your style. I will never, ever covet a Celine purse but i understand why you do what you do. ( My niece is a nascent influencer or trying to be.) Ive enjoyed all of your travel videos also; your Disneyworld videos are hilarious and Simon is adorable. I also have Chihuahuas but not five, thank god! Keep up the good work.
Thank you Carolyn. Glad you are enjoying them, we can't wait to get back to some travels once things are a little more settled. ❤️
Thank you, a very honest review. I knew you were going to mention the lenght of straps as a con, it would bother me too, actually I would even pass the bag because of it. The color is spot on!
Yay another video!!! Was looking forward to this! Love you Emma!!
Such an enjoyable and informative review. Thank you, Emma!
Hi Emma, thank you for all of your UA-cams. You have opened my eyes on preloved bags. I have spent decades buying new bags and the accessories. I now spend so much time scrolling through different sites, looking for bargains. By the way, I bought myself a Tri-Fold because of your review (via Vestiaire😁😁) and can't wait for it to arrive.
😍
I agree with you, there is a classic simplicity when it comes to luxury in my opinion. I don't think flashy logos are luxury, maybe expensive but not classy.
Your videos are my Sunday morning treat. Love the bag and your style. Thanks Emma and Simon 🤎
My Sundays aren’t complete without them Elizabeth! ☺️
Thank you both ❤️ Hope you are having a fantastic weekend 😘
Hi Emma - what a beautiful bag and a very helpful commentary on the pros and cons. Thank you also for the link to the bag hooks - there are some really nice ones there on Etsy. I think I remember you mentioning these in one of your earlier videos. I am definitely going to buy one - and also one for my sister as I think it will make a really lovely and useful little Christmas stocking gift. X
Yes what a great idea ❤️
Super comprehensive review Emma! Love these bag reviews 🖤👍
Beautiful Celine bag Emma! Great description. Great video as always. Have a fantastic day!
Thank you Chantal. Hope you are having a lovely weekend too ❤️
Hi Emma love this video learning so much from you!! Recently discovered you channel so glad it did. Love your style😍😍😘
Thank you Naheed. ❤️
Hi, Emma great bag! I'm happy for you :-). Phoebe Philo's passion for minimalism also comes from Helmut Lang. I recently bought a bag from him. It's a hammer and the inside part is similar to your bag. But these narrow straps have a lock :-)
You give the best reviews of handbags!
A square knot. Left over right. Then right over left. Thanks for the review. I love Celine bags too and have the trio in black
I have one in dark gray as well, really love the design of it
Nobody does bags reviews like you do..
Thank you so much!!!
Thank you ❤️
It looks like a lovely bag Emma,I’m with you I like my zippy compartments for keys,phones etc! 👜 🤎
Hi Emma, love the old celine! the knot for the center ties should be a square knot, left over right then right over left!
Great review as always! Thanks Emma.
Been waiting for this one! Thanks! 😘
Oh, forgot to ask the weight. 😬
I just want to show my appreciation for all your thorough bag reviews - I have found it SO helpful especially when looking for the same bag in the secondhand market. Thanks to you, I was able to find a biege Celine sangle bag via consignment.
😍
I bought this beautiful bag in grey, and am also very happy with my purchase. Great review.
😍
Emma, loooove this bag! Enjoy it! 🥰🥰🥰
She’s a beauty that’s for sure, appreciate your as always very thorough review. The adjustable wings were a surprise. The shoulder straps are a no no for me, (I mean the price is the main reason let’s be honest 😂) but I can tell on a thick winter coat it wouldn’t fit well and slide down on my slightly more substantial regulation shoulders lol. I adore the colour though 🤎
Thank you for the review! Incredibly helpful! Would you recommend this bag for travel? Unsure if it would lose its shape if you put larger items in it that weren’t think and tall, ie lap, make up bag, wallet, etc.
I was also on the hunt for a navy trench and immediately thought of you when I saw the COS one, glad you already picked it up! I would love to hear your thoughts on it! Although seeing it on you, I think it would be too long for my 5'3 frame!
That trench look even more beautiful and highend on Emma than on the COS model! But it’s 200€ and 54% Polyester… If I spend 200€ on a trench I don’t want Polyester… 🤔
I will be featuring it in more detail next week 👍
Great review, Emma! Beautiful bag! Also good to hear you have ‘standard regulations shoulders’. 😂
😂
Hello, awsome piece !!!
Honestly, the shape, color,and the style I really love it.And it fits you so well.
Thank you for the "wonder" review😏😉👍
Bises
i loooooove this colour 💗💗💗
I’ve been waiting for this review! I absolutely love this bag 💼. I think it’s my fav of all of yours, which is a very tough choice indeed 😜. I so appreciate your honest and thorough reviews, I just told my husband “anything that is Emma-approved” is a sure-bet/done -deal for me. Have a great Sunday 🥰🇨🇦
😂 I bet he hates me 😂 Have a great Sunday too 😘
This bag is one of my all time favorites! I have it for over 3 years now or even longer
What is the bottom of it like?
I wouldn’t say it gets saggy, but also not stiff just as Emma showed its inside part. Envelope type leather folds stitched together. .this is why i prefer putting 13’ laptop into a side compartment. But for smaller things bigger/ middle compartment works just fine
Thanks for sharing Elena ❤️
That’s hilarious - I have never realised what the wing ties are for!! Mine was an eBay purchase after hankering after an old Celine I could use for work (my laptop fits).
I'm fan of your videos!
Thank you ❤️
Thanks Emma for the review! Do you find the leather scratch easily? Eyeing one just like yours but on the fence because of this concern. Thanks!
I wouldn't say it scratches easily (mine hasn't scratched so far) but it definitely could scratch if it were to be get caught on something 👍
I’m with you love a zipped compartment for my quick grab items i.e bank card sunglasses 😎 lippy💄 😀
For me a good bag needs to have zippers and be really secure if it flips over as the contents don’t fall all over the floor. I don’t even look at bags that are not like that.
Crystal clear review. 👌
Luv your taste 😋
Tienes unos gustos exquisitos, todo lo que muestras en tus videos me encanta 🥰
❤️
Hi Emma (and fellow lux lovers!) Speaking of zippy compartments, do you ever use bag organisers? I’m looking at getting the Seau Sangle and buying a bag organiser but am scared it would remove the gorgeous slouch down the middle. From your photos on IG, I presume you don’t use one? Thanks for your videos!
No I don't use them, I just have everything loose. But I guess it would depend on how useful you would personally find them. I just have a rummage around to find what I need 😆
You always do the beat reviews. Jotted down a few pros and cons to look for on my next handbag search. Love navy and brown together. 😍
Love the colour
Managed to get my hands on an dark olive green one on ebay, first time buying a designer handbag used off the internet, but thanks to your guide I was quite certain that it was authentic and it arrived today, definitely not a fake, I loooove it sooooo much. And it was such a bargain, too!!
adding cons here:
1. the weight.. the weight.. the weight..
2. as i am a petite girl, in a tropical weather area , i dont use baggy sleeves.. and so the drop of this bag is actually too low.. i ended up shortening up the strap a little bit..
Thank you for the review! I’ve been eying on this beauty for awhile. How’s the weight of this bag? None of the reviews I’ve seen so far talked about it
This bag is light. Although, full leather but no hardware at all so it is well balanced. I load mine with 13 inch laptop (fits well into a side compartment), essentials, cosmetics and still can carry it around quite a lot.
@@elenab.5640 thanks so much!! This is really helpful- Now I want it even more!
I agree with Elena and don't personally find it to be heavy, although this may depend on what you are used to using/carrying 👍 But for me, even with my day to day items in, it is fine ❤️
Exactly what I was going to ask! ❤️ Does anyone know exact weight of the medium?
Its a stunner , a workhorse, a chic yet chill bag.
Now on another bag (the Row moonbag) on VC is quit afordeble if you got 1000€ around that, laying 😬🙄😊
Lovely bag Emma, you wear it well goes with your hair!!! On camera anyway.
A great alternative is the Cuyana System tote - much more affordable and functional bag - it has a crossbody strap too
I noticed the similarity too, but want to point out the cuyana one was too soft and creases ways too easily. Had mine for 2 days and there's already few ugly (and obvious) creases along the bottom
love love love
It is pretty, but is it heavy? Also, I find two straps awkward as one always keeps falling off. You should design one of your own logo ES! I like an inside wallet included.
I personally don't find it heavy, but it will depend on how much you put in there 👍 Even with my day to day items I don't find it heavy though ❤️
Hi Emma, your style is so timeless. I love watching your videos/insta. I am looking to purchase a couple items #secondhandbutgrand but wanted to know if you buy from overseas or just U.K.?
Yes I buy from both overseas and the UK. Although it will depend on the site that I use since the changes in taxes after Brexit 👍
@@EmmaHill thank you for replying :)
Great review, please could you insert the links for the cream jumper? I need it in my life but there is no link in the info box 🙏.
Sorry, I thought I had but YT didn't save it 🙈🤣 I have just added them ❤️
@@EmmaHill thaaankkss ❤️
This is the perfect brown tone bag.
I love this bag and have it in navy. I will say this for women who have a bigger bust, are petite, and shoulders that measure 16" and over--you can wear it on your shoulders, but it won't look like how Emma models it. It feels a bit bulky and cumbersome on my shoulder, so I tend to hold it as a handbag. I really wish this had a strap. Maybe I can get away with it on my shoulders if I wore a t-shirt ONLY, but absolutely not a jumper. Also, I have a 13" MacBook Air and it fits, but when I insert the laptop in its case, it does get a bit bulky and you can't zipper it.
Thank you for sharing Felicia ♥️
I've been looking for a bag like this for ages. can I ask what is the weight of this bag?
(in grams)
I couldn’t tell you I’m afraid, we don’t have anything to weigh it on 🙈
Emma, we know that they are like your children…lol BUT if you had to choose between the two - the Tri fold bag or the Sau Sangle?
If it was life or death (😂) I would have to say the seau sangle, just because of the leather and its vibe ❤️
@@EmmaHill haha I couldn’t help but ask that difficult question 😘😘 I hope the house move has been smooth sailing!
We still haven't moved. There were a few final details that needed to be addressed but hopefully next week we should be all done and ready to go 🤞
Ho visto sul sito Jhon Lewis laversione economica dellaborsa come da te suggerito.Spediscono in Italia?
I don't think so but I would check their website just in case ❤️
Great presentation as always with lots of details, but the bag is empty throughout the video (except for the laptop as one point). It would be better if we could also see how it looks when it is full (at least with the average everyday items), as no one carries an empty bag, especially this size with several compartments. It would be great if you could mention its weight when empty (sorry if you did and I missed it). I don't intend to buy one but it might be of interest to someone who does. :)
There are a few comments below about weight. It is always difficult to mention as something that may not be heavy for one person may be heavy for another, depending on what they are used to. But I wouldn't say it was heavy, even with my day to day items in it. And due to the shape of the bag it doesn't really change too much when you have your items in there (for day to day anyway) unless you fully pack it out - so this would depend on what you carry around. 👍
Feels like they are another version of cabas with a middle zipped compartment. Cabas is more leisure, relaxed silhouette.
How heavy is it when empty, please? Thank you!
I don't find it heavy at all, either empty or with my day to day items in it, but then it will depend on what you are used to carrying. A few people in the comments have said it isn't heavy for them either and a couple that say it is once full, so it really will depend 👍
Tod has the same design!
Really enjoy your videos 🤗 but this bag is not my style at all 😃 but yes I would prefer classic simplicity rather than loads of logos and things showing off…
Simplicity is the key for elegance and sophistication in my honest opinion 🤗
Standard regulation shoulders 😂😂💕
❤️
There's an old wives' tale, and apparently I'm an old wife now, if you put your handbag on the floor it's bad luck. Something about lack of respect for money. Not sure if I buy in but just in case I don't put my bag on the floor. Xoxo
Personally I liked you with the slightly shorter bob… it made You much edgier.
I don't know if you've answered this before. Would you ever get a Telfar bag? While there's a very obvious logo on the front, it is cult classic and very simple.
No they aren't my cup of tea I'm afraid. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey Em! Hey 👧. 💘 ❤💙💜!
🤚
Who is looking forward to Emma’s A/W wardrobe switchover 🙋♀️🤞
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but there won't technically be one this year, as we are in the process of moving. So I will be packing up my current wardrobe and then unpacking my A/W wardrobe in the new home. However, I will definitely do some videos around my new wardrobe (which I don't have yet and need to decide on how I am storing everything 😂) ❤️
Something to look forward to then!!!! At least will get a chance to see the new set up in the new home. I’ve literally seen every wardrobe switchover in your old home 😂 (from pine coloured wardrobe, to the sticky marble effect to the bendy rail) slightly sad will not see the old wardrobe 🥲 but of course congrats on the new home 🏡
I was in the Celine Store the other week and I don’t know what happened to the brand. The new bags, the clothes, the accessories. None of it looked like the Celine I used to love. They also cut down on the color range of the Celine Classic, which is Celine’s most iconic bag IMO. So disappointing. I feel like with Celine it’s second hand or nothing now. Your new bag looks lovely and so much like the old Celine.
I don't recommend Vestiaire. I bought a black bag and received a navy one. Their quality control is lacking and their customer service sketchy. Avoid at all costs. Real real is good.
Real real doesn't do Europe. I've had really good experiences with vestiaire, i think you unfortunately had a bad experience but i don't think the site overall is bad
Sorry to hear that. I have used Vestiaire so much and haven't had any issues.
@@EmmaHill I’ve also bought loads from them and no issues
It’s 50/50 for me. I went to sell a bag that I had originally bought from Vestiaire and they, initially, flagged it as inauthentic!
@@villanelle5279 wow
I have no idea why celine at the moment has such a big! huge! logo on the bags. We miss you,Phoebe Philo.
