I think a persons first designer bag should be whatever fits their lifestyle at the time, plain and simple. 💕 not a trend bag, not a “must have”, but something easy to use
I love that you mentioned styles that aren't everyone's first thought. I have the Prada re edition and love it to bits. I also thought the price was really expensive for nylon but when you think LV is mostly canvas as well yet most are willing to pay the price for it it's like, why not nylon though? It's super durable and easy going for any season. Really malleable too so this bag actually fits so much for how small it looks. Its super sleek as well. Does not scream branded. I've been wearing it non stop since I got it. It's just SO easy! I have the Gucci Dionysus on my wishlist too. In small and in red! 😊 I finally came around to liking it after the hype died down haha. I love the attention to detail on the clasp. I still think it's very classic esp with lots of colour and that Gucci canvas is the embodiment of Gucci history.
Totally agree about paying for canvas so why not nylon 🤷🏻♀️ & Tbh I wasn’t a huge fan of it when it was super big a couple years back but I’m honestly soo obsessed with it now. Maybe one day we’ll be twinning the Dionysus 😌
I’ve only have a few a luxury bags but I just got the coach pillow tabby and it’s a really great more affordable option if you’re not able to spend thousands at the moment it’s such a squishy and delicious bag! I need the 18 size:p as far as luxury I think the la Medusa is a really nice bag for the price point and Gucci makes a few totes I love that aren’t too obscenely priced! I love the Mormont camera bag as well!! Oo and you can get good deals on balenciaga on the resale market!!
I totally agree about the balenciaga! Even YSL gets some discounts sometimes depending on the department store you buy from! But omg you have the tabby bag I’ve seen that everywhere it looks like such a lovely bag and especially in all the colors it comes in 💕💕
Great video! I feel compelled to say that the Pochette Accessories fits sooo much! I do love the look of the Eva bag. I recently tried on the Alma BB in monogram and loved it, and would consider buying it. Soooo cute and so classic LV I agree.
This reminded me of my love for the Dionysus when I was first starting my collection! Always pushed it to the end of my list since there were more expensive bags to purchase. Now I’m thinking if I should try to get one 🥺
The mini dionysus bear is that it weighs a ton! I absolutely love my prada nylon 2005 bag! It is the easiest bag and works when you are dressed down running errands or off to the gym. Probably my most used bag this year.
Thank you for not mentioning the classic but cliche speedy and NF. Good choices! I love my loulou! And I think an alma bb is a great choice even as your first LV bag ❤️
@@maggyxchuu I feel better with lighter color leather, but in this style, it feels more dressed up and I want something more dressed down. I realize I’ll use it more the more casual the bag.
I'm currently saving for my first luxury bag and I'm looking at the black box leather Givenchy Antigona in either the mini or small size. The LV Neonoe or Palm Springs Mini would be second pick. 😁
My first luxury bag was the LV Favorite MM in monogram. Love that bag as it goes with everything and can be dressed up or down. Downside is the weak magnetic closure and the scratch prone face plate, so you have to be careful how you lay it. But even with that, love how durable the canvas is and how surprisingly spacious it is.
i’m wanting to start my collection & there are so many great options☺️ i personally love the prada reedition with the strap in the black saffiano leather🤩 but mostly ive also been eyeing either the YSL lou or mini lou camera bag, or the toy loulou as my first bag! thanks for sharing, Maggie💗✨
You spotlighted such great bags in this videos! I definitely wish I watched this before I purchased my first luxury bag 😭 also, 100% agree with you on the alma b strap!! Biggest con for that bag is that I had to buy a separate strap. The bag literally laid on my mid thigh with the original strap 🥲 & congrats on 10k!! You MADE IT! ✨♥️🥰
It’s such a sleeper brand! But when you really get into it, it’s soo nice. The simplicity where it’s classic yet modern ugh. Keep me posted on your Celine purchases 🥺✨
Lovely list of bags. Awesome variety as well. Coach be doing lately...I still have several old vintage coaches. I have that same MK Bag... I still see it as Luxury, purchased from a consignment shop.... it was so expensive to me...still is.🤔🌼
My first luxury bag was the Neverfull in MM, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's a tote and a tote is a everyday bag and I should have paid for a Coach or a Tory Burch instead. No need to pay 1k+ for a tote, just my opinion.
I inherit some LV from my mom, but Celine Ava is the first designer bag I bought for myself! it is so cute! it is also easy to match with a lot of outfit. I like wearing it with tank top and jeans.
My first designer bag (and only one to date) is the Prada 1BH152 nylon gaufre crossbody. Not a trendy bag, but I love it ❤️ Good price, can wear it day to night, casual or dressy, fits all my essentials, and super low maintenance ☺️
How do you cycle through all your bags? I’ve been having a little bag addiction moment these past few months due to work being so stressful. I’ve been buying bags to reward myself 😅 I have maybe 14 bags in my collection and sometimes I feel guilty buying them because idk if I’ll be able to wear all of them enough to get my money’s worth. I mean they aren’t crazy expensive, I have coach, mk, & a few lv pieces and most of the time I get them on sale, except the lv ones. I usually buy maybe 1 bag at a time and use it to death, like literally until the seams are falling apart before I buy a new one. But lately I’ve been going crazy with the bags! Lol.
Great video! What great picks and suggestions. I have the Alma BB in DE ❤️ and the Gucci Dionysus Mini in pink blooms ❤️(preloved). I will say the back side of my Dionysus did get a little wear on the blooms print itself, but not on the monogram. I’m more conscious of it now and rotate my bags. Keep up the vids!
I think substantial would be a good word for the Ava relative to the Pochette Accessoire hahaha. Great recommendations! I would also recommend the Gucci Horsebit 1955 shoulder bag! I think it’s such a classic shape and has Gucci’s iconic elements, specially the one with the GG supreme canvas.
i looooove your recommendations. I LOOOOVE to have the Prada Re-edition but i Saffiano Leather with GHW. My 1st luxury bag is Givenchy Antigona and i fee its also a great started bag. i still have mine and still in perfect condition. ❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕
I had the alma bb in DE, loved it but it killed me that I couldnt fit as much. But sold it and got the alma bb in empreinte and it fits SOOOO MUCH MORE. One of my fave bags😍
I had the small Dionysus. I think it’s the medium size, with the suede back pocket had the color transfer. The other sizes don’t have a pocket on the back.
I think you’re right! I heard some people had some really bad issues with color transfers but it had to be with the suede not just the gg canvas. Such a great bag nonetheless ☺️
Thank you so much for you recommend 😊😊😊😊 Ysl is on my radar now but I hesitate between The toy loulou and the medium college.Hope I found the best price for one of them soon! 💓💓💓💓
Ooo what a hard decision. I feel like YSL you can sometimes find really good discounts on certain sites you just got to be lucky! Keep me posted if you end up getting either 🥰
Hi Maggie, this video was so insightful! I can’t decide between Celine Ava, Lv ivy (monogram or black) , and Lv nano noe as my first designer bag. Would you still choose Ava over these options?
@@maggyxchuu I got the Ava!! So happy I discovered your channel recently and currently binge watching your past videos. Your energy and love for handbags is so uplifting! Now I'm eyeing the pochette metis east west next lol
i had a celine phantom cabas, used it as a diaper bag. bad idea. very heavy and very hard to carry on the shoulder when it is filled. neverfull vs. phantom cabas, neverfull definately more user friendly.
Omg really?! I’ve never filled the cabas fully since I’ve only tried it on so I didn’t know it gets that heavy and uncomfortable. That’s actually super good know ty 🙏🏼
Get the dinosus in mini but not super mini that’s too small ! I have both the mini and the new small one with stones in it !! It’s the new fall 2020 one ! Look it up!! I think that one u would love ! It’s the Dino small and has small stones so beautiful
I love the Alma bb bag!!💗💗💗 unfortunately I ended up opting for the Neverfull mm in rose ballerine, only because I have so many crossbodys / handbags.🥲😅
The neverfull mm is SUCH a forever/everyday bag though! I just didn’t add it into my list because we all know it’s an A1 choice! But you got it in the rose ballerine what a great choice 😍😍😍
The Prada re-edition is so cute but it feels cheap. Really cheap. I couldn’t justify the price for the quality. It’s not even the nylon that bothers me. It’s the chain that feels like cheap plastic
I think a persons first designer bag should be whatever fits their lifestyle at the time, plain and simple. 💕 not a trend bag, not a “must have”, but something easy to use
Yes yes totally agree! Something thats super functional! Hence a good sized crossbody or a work/tote bag 🙌🏼
I love that you mentioned styles that aren't everyone's first thought. I have the Prada re edition and love it to bits.

Found your Chanel recently and really enjoy it! It will be interesting to see your mum’s collection
I love the neverfull tote I know that everyone thinks it’s basic.. but it’s truely a great bag haha
1000%! The only reason I didn’t include it is because I feel like it would be so redundant for me to say bc it’s no joke a staple bag for a reason ✨✨
I can watch you talking about bags all day~ thanks for this video~~

Great video! I feel compelled to say that the Pochette Accessories fits sooo much! I do love the look of the Eva bag. I recently tried on the Alma BB in monogram and loved it, and would consider buying it. Soooo cute and so classic LV I agree.
That Prada is so cute. I Purchased a pink one.

The mini dionysus bear is that it weighs a ton! I absolutely love my prada nylon 2005 bag! It is the easiest bag and works when you are dressed down running errands or off to the gym. Probably my most used bag this year.
I was also debating between WOC and mini Dionysus, the Bloom version is so so pretty !
The WOC fits sooo much, I totally understand why it’s priced higher than the mini!
can you believe i just added alma bb and speedy to my collection?! i started buying LV 20+ years ago. 🤦🏻♀️ enjoyed you video!!
It’s never too late to add the classics 😄
Thank you for not mentioning the classic but cliche speedy and NF. Good choices! I love my loulou! And I think an alma bb is a great choice even as your first LV bag ❤️
I LOVE the Prada re-edition in that blue grey color in nylon but knowing me, I’ll get oil on it in 10 seconds. Ahahha.
Yesss omg the icy blue and even the cameo beige makes me not trust myself either 🥲
@@maggyxchuu I feel better with lighter color leather, but in this style, it feels more dressed up and I want something more dressed down. I realize I’ll use it more the more casual the bag.

Loved this vid Maggie. You have such great energy and information in these. Thanks also for the feedback to my question on IG. 😊
Thank YOU for tuning in Christine 🥰💖
My all time favorite bags are my Speedy 30 in EB and small Gucci Boston bag in blue. Very classy and light weight, great with jean or dressed up.
Your voice is so soothing!
My first luxury bag was the LV Favorite MM in monogram. Love that bag as it goes with everything and can be dressed up or down.
Downside is the weak magnetic closure and the scratch prone face plate, so you have to be careful how you lay it. But even with that, love how durable the canvas is and how surprisingly spacious it is.
What a great first bag choice from LV. The favorite looks like it can hold SO much and soo versatile depending on the occassion!
i’m wanting to start my collection & there are so many great options☺️ i personally love the prada reedition with the strap in the black saffiano leather🤩 but mostly ive also been eyeing either the YSL lou or mini lou camera bag, or the toy loulou as my first bag! thanks for sharing, Maggie💗✨
I have all of those, they are my most practical bags!
Congrats on 10K subscribers, Maggy! Been enjoying your videos for a while!
Thank you so much for the constant support 🥺💜
reaaaallly nice collection for beginner. totally agree
Omg yess!! Ysl small Lou bag and gucci Dionysus!!! It’s definitely on my wishlist. 😩😩😩❤️❤️❤️
Ugh but your newest addition is also such a great choice, legit such a good crossbody style ✨🙌🏼
@@maggyxchuu thank you 🥺💕

I went to Neiman's to look at Celine and I really want a the luggage tote in small. I really like the Cabas tote too. I'm really getting into Celine.
It’s such a sleeper brand! But when you really get into it, it’s soo nice. The simplicity where it’s classic yet modern ugh. Keep me posted on your Celine purchases 🥺✨
Lovely list of bags. Awesome variety as well. Coach be doing lately...I still have several old vintage coaches. I have that same MK Bag... I still see it as Luxury, purchased from a consignment shop.... it was so expensive to me...still is.🤔🌼
That MK bag was no joke where everywhere in highschool like 10 years ago, MK definitely had their moment!
@@maggyxchuu was it 10 years ago...heck seems longer even.😁
The alma bb was my first designer bag. I love it!
Lols 😂 the PRADA nylon was legit my first bag - back in high school and low cut jeans were popular
Omgggg yes yes what a vibe, back in the day and even now ✨
Same here. 15yrs after and still kicking.
My first luxury bag was the Neverfull in MM, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's a tote and a tote is a everyday bag and I should have paid for a Coach or a Tory Burch instead. No need to pay 1k+ for a tote, just my opinion.
Love the re-edition!! Especially the yellow and the pink🎀❤️🎀
Right?? The pink especially they have two kinds of pink! A pastel and a more vibrant one 😍
@@maggyxchuu oo the vibrant one for me:D
@@maggyxchuu pink makes me so happy and it looks cute with any other color🥰 in my opinion🤗
I inherit some LV from my mom, but Celine Ava is the first designer bag I bought for myself! it is so cute! it is also easy to match with a lot of outfit. I like wearing it with tank top and jeans.
Omg your first bag for yourself is the Ava bag omg omg such a great choice ahh I’m legit so excited must be so cute on you 😭💖
My first designer bag (and only one to date) is the Prada 1BH152 nylon gaufre crossbody. Not a trendy bag, but I love it ❤️ Good price, can wear it day to night, casual or dressy, fits all my essentials, and super low maintenance ☺️
Not a trendy bag but still such an iconic Prada style! Great great choice, I’m sure it can legit go with everything 💖

Hope you enjoyed the video 🙏🏼
The best luxury handbag for first timer should be useful and looks good on them. That’s it ✅ and you’re in 🥰
Love my Alma however I have the PM size and it’s perfect for everyday
Great video! What great picks and suggestions.
I have the Alma BB in DE ❤️ and the Gucci Dionysus Mini in pink blooms ❤️(preloved). I will say the back side of my Dionysus did get a little wear on the blooms print itself, but not on the monogram. I’m more conscious of it now and rotate my bags.
Keep up the vids!
Oh my gosh! You have a MINI BLOOM DIONYSUS. What a phenomenal find I didn’t even know that existed 😭💖🌸
I think substantial would be a good word for the Ava relative to the Pochette Accessoire hahaha. Great recommendations! I would also recommend the Gucci Horsebit 1955 shoulder bag! I think it’s such a classic shape and has Gucci’s iconic elements, specially the one with the GG supreme canvas.
YES. That’s legit the word I was looking for! and I adore the gucci horsebit bag gives me such old school vibes. Legit so soo classic gucci.
Thanks for this video! Really would help me in deciding 😊
I'm glad you found it helpful!

Hi there! I would like to ask for your recommendation, do you prefer the LV bum bag OR the LV alma bb bag? I am confuse which one to get..😊
I had the alma bb in DE, loved it but it killed me that I couldnt fit as much. But sold it and got the alma bb in empreinte and it fits SOOOO MUCH MORE. One of my fave bags😍

Get the dinosus in mini but not super mini that’s too small ! I have both the mini and the new small one with stones in it !! It’s the new fall 2020 one ! Look it up!! I think that one u would love ! It’s the Dino small and has small stones so beautiful
Hopefully I get the LV passy when it Christmas. Saving up for one 😀
Im getting the ysl Lou lou tomorrow in small love!! I’m between gold and silver lol I can’t decide
Ahhhh I honestly would pick gold for every color combo except the ivory/white I think silver goes better!
I love the Alma bb bag!!💗💗💗 unfortunately I ended up opting for the Neverfull mm in rose ballerine, only because I have so many crossbodys / handbags.🥲😅
The neverfull mm is SUCH a forever/everyday bag though! I just didn’t add it into my list because we all know it’s an A1 choice! But you got it in the rose ballerine what a great choice 😍😍😍
OKAY HUGE UPDATE!!!! Sooooo I swapped my bag, ☺️☺️☺️😅 and got the ALMA BB in Damier ebene instead 😅🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
My first bag was a speedy b 30 and my second was a Neverfull! But right now I’m loving my NeoNoe!
not me watching this 2 and a half years later and the prada nylon bag has practically doubled in price
Alma bb is also my first
Yess thank you 🥰
Love the choices! For longer videos, can you do time stamps next time, Maggy?
Omg of course!! I completely forgot to put time stamps in my last few lux videos but I normally do! ty for bringing this to my attention ~
I love this episode! I got an Alma BB in Damier Ebene as my first LV bag and I still love it!
Omg yes amazing bag and you picked it in DE phenomenal choice 🙌🏼
yup my first bag is alma pm vintage!! i gave it to my mom and now i want it back 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You’re like mom uh can I please have it back 🙃😂 But wow you got a vintage one at that 😍
@@maggyxchuu hahaha yes! and im alma bb is my favorite lv bag.
The Prada re-edition is so cute but it feels cheap. Really cheap. I couldn’t justify the price for the quality. It’s not even the nylon that bothers me. It’s the chain that feels like cheap plastic
Love my Alma BB also as my first lux bag... 🤎👜
Yes!! Which one do you have?? Canvas?? Epi leather??
Alma BB in Damier Ebene. 🤎
My first designer bag is the re-edition 2000 ❤️❤️
Omg yes yes yes such a great choice 😌🔥
