I always felt like this bag looked like a very bougie beach bag. I can definitely see myself putting my towel and sunscreen in and carrying it to the beach should I ever get invited to a beach day with the Queen.
Living in a city center, a zip is a must have on my bags. In Ye Old Pre-Plague Times, with a crowd of people on the street, there's no way I'd go out with an open top bag.
I got the samorga organizer with compartments and a zip, and i love it! I take this on planes as it fits underneath the seat in front of me, and i dont have to carry the weight of it as it sits on my carry on throughout the airport. i also use this for long car trips/weekend trips, as i keep it on my passenger seat so i know i have all my important things (laptop, water, wallet, important docs, meds, etc) with me and dont have to get out of my car to go digging round the back seats/trunk to get stuff!
there is another down to this tote: it is so so pretty that I makes your heart skip a beat ;) I dont have one because Its very expensive and I dont need a tote. but I get tempted EVERY single time I see it
i love my dior book tote and i bought a zoomoni organiser with zipper to carry the bag. although it’s fabric but i feel sometimes fabrics are easier than leather because leather can get mould😅easily in humid environments. that’s just my thought😊and the bag is very easy to grab and go and put stuff in.
I have the already have the Dior book tote in the blue toile de jouy in a small and My boyfriend gifted my the mini in the blue toile de jouy and I got use the crossbody strap I got for my saddle bag and it works so well with the mini. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Cass! Im contemplating getting this bag as a beach bag, but ive scoured the youtube reviews and nobody has even mentioned it as a possible option for getting or keeping the bag😭 can u say if it wud work please. I got the ysl i care in raffia but now i want something with structure
You make amazing points! Something I have struggled with (primarily with the blue oblique print like that one) is that it gets easily dirty/over time begins to turn into a darker color from dirt and time :/ it’s what made me stop going for the classic oblique unless it was all black
For the longest time I’ve fought myself not to buy this bag because its just not practical for me. It was realllyyyy hard to ignore instagram feeds at that time. But I’m glad I stay strong. It still looks absolutely amazing on you Cassie.
There are felt inserts with zipped lid that help with retaining shape, protecting against spills and messes and prevents anyone from reaching into the bag for your valuables
Hi cassie.. i also Got the Chanel necklace for Christmas but i cant wear it like you because it to tight.. do you know if it comes in different sizes? Thank you for beeing the Queen of UA-cam 👸🏻❤️
Hey girl! As far as I know it only comes in the one size but you can adjust where the cc clips onto the chain so you can adjust it up or down - I hope that helps 🙌🏽💖
I totally agree with you. I didn’t get this bag instead I got Onthego go tote. I feel canvas is more durable than fabric. Thank you so much for sharing darling ❤️
I’ve always liked the look of this bag, but for the reasons you stated I don’t love it. Not sure if you like it or not, but the Marc Jacobs tote is amazing. It has a great strap that is detachable and also has a zipper. Plus it’s also canvas and the inside is wipeable. I have it and the two times I have worn it out, it was so light.
I really enjoy your content!! Could you do a few styling videos? For example!! "First night out once the clubs open again" "Finally meeting my ex-husband's new wife" "Funeral of my last husband who died in mysterious circumstances"......uhm.....and other Cassie-related events one might attend once vaccinated against Covid 19 😂😂😂😂?
I just got this right now. I bought a silk posh looking dustbag with ribbon drawstring so I can put my belongings inside securely cuz yep this thing doesn't have a zipper
Hello 🙏🙏✨If you have 2 same bags from different Dior boutique. One from Paris and one from London. Can you return the Paris one to London boutique? It would be great if you could teach me and give me some recommendations ❤️
I just bought the large Dior oblique book tote... the only problem I have is, some small loose threads on the letters... but I looked at 5 different totes and they all had loose threads on different areas on the bag, mostly on the letters... my SA said it is normal and to leave it alone... he also said that if the thread should loosen up more that I have a warranty on the bag and they would send it to Paris to get it repaired... so 🤔
@@CassieThorpe it’s weird but every single one I looked at in the boutique, they all had loose ending threads on the Christian Dior letters…. They should cut them completely off before they sell those totes….
I have been wanting this bag for over a year! But can’t seem to pull the trigger! 🙈..Your video made so much sense! Thank you..it was just what I needed to see! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi cassie! I really like your videos and I’m totally agree with all of your points because I do own the same bag as your mom’s🙈One question I want to ask is that from where did you find that insert bag? I’m looking for one but couldn’t find the perfect size for my tote!
Hi Cassie thanks for the video. I am torn between CD book tote and LV onthego (prefer the latter a bit more) but Do you think the LV onthego would be a good beach bag if thats the only one you take while travelling? If yes would it be the coated canvas or the leather one that you would suggest (its hard to get hands on the coated canvas one)
Yes I think it’s a more durable option than the book tote and I would keep trying for the coated canvas - you could run that bag over and it would look the same after 😂💖
I have one in the camo canvas and cannot agree more. Organiser is a must. I'm a tall guy, so the size is more plus for me, but it gets heavy if it's loaded. And as you said there's weird temptation to fill it.. I don't understand why. Ps. You are rocking the chanel necklace 👍👍
It’s a shopping tote bag, lightweight to carry your essentials such as your phone, keys and purse for when you’re going on a spree and will be carrying other shopping bags. It’s easy access to the essentials, I use mine if I’m at the shopping centre/mall not for any other reason.
Cassie love all your videos, big fan! I have 3 book totes in my collection and while some of your points are valid, Dior book totes look delicate but are deceptively hard wearing. My reverse toile de jouy tote - I’ve used to buy groceries and even used as a moving bag when we moved apartments - the handle is still clean, intact and the bag is in excellent condition, but I do understand with the original size, it’s not for everyone!
You look so good in this look! Did you and your mum find the fabric book tote wearing anywhere else like on the body or just the handles? And is the fabric easy to stain or is it more resilient ?
Everything you’ve just said is 100% right regarding the Christian Dior book tote I have one because of all the reasons above I then had to go and buy the Gucci off the Grid tote. And now I only use my Book tots as Beach bag.
That bag is massive, great insight! I just had my Gucci SA order in the Medium Ophidia tote bag with the leather trim, and I cannot wait!.. I am obsessed already! 🥰
Hello, you are so right I bought the GM NEVERFULL and that bag was neverfull alright ,I would carry around a house with a bad back.I could never just carry a couple of things so my sister wanted it and I gave it to her, hence I would never buy the Dior large tote.I love the necklace I knew I should have bought it when I seen it before Christmas.
I have that exact Booktote that your Mumma has and it is absolutely perfect .... for my needs. However I completely agree with all of your points and therefore it’s something you really need to weigh up if it is going to suit what you want to use it for or if there is a better option 🤷🏼♀️ Mine doesn’t have any wear and tear and still looks brand new because I don’t use it on an “daily basis” it’s there for a “when I need it” type of bag and I love it 💙
I have seen this same bag on a shopping website and they provide you small, medium and large. I think medium is better when you are a working woman and also for travelling.
Not sure how you could talk me out of a bag that I didn’t want to begin with, but you did it 😂 never touching the bigger size ! Loved your recommendations for alternatives though. Beautiful video as always !
Thank you for sharing. My no brand tote is more functional than ths one. I personalized the design myself, so that bag is only one on this planet 😂. I could say mine is a rare piece compared to this common Dior tote.
Hi 👋🏾 there! New subbie just found your channel so forgive me if the following questions have been asked and answered but in my defense I haven’t seen all your vids yet…. 1st Thxs for this vid! And addressing 1 of my biggest concerns that I’ve yet to see anyone else really speak on, which is the Dior Book Tote fabric doesn’t hold up for the cost and there’s a good possibility for transfer… My questions: 1. What type of insert was that, you showed w/ your moms Dior Book Tote? 2. So when you say don’t worry about getting the Rive Gauche dirty are you saying it’s a better option than the LV Damien Azur which we know will soil and possibly catch transfers over time? Thxs for your time… and Thxs for the other options. I had decided on the Onthego but now I’m reevaluating since watching this vid!
Welcome!! So I got this insert from Samorga and they take a while to deliver but it’s good quality! Oohh that’s a tough one because the LV canvas is very hard wearing as well - I think either would be a good choice, just depends on the style you’re looking for 💖
Thanks for honest review. It’s hard for people to post actual honest reviews. You just hear great things about bags and I know there are some bags that aren’t worth it but hardly anyone talks about it
Wish i could afford one! I bought a coach alternative to see if a large tote would work in my wardrobe and I love it! wish i could afford the real one! But i think if i had the funds for the book tote i would get a speedy bandolier and a pair of b23 high tops instead!! Love you ca$$ie!!
I love my medium book bag. I would not use it as a commuter work bag if I was still taking train to work. Because it is not a black hole insideit is the color of the fabric can easily see stuff in it. for me no regret
Thanks for this...the designs are so attractive but i strughle with the pricecfor that handheld canvas shopping bag...could only justify it as a shopping bag or picnic bag but never at that price ... wish they'd do some of the designs in canvas as slg (pouches or wallet)...that'd be the perfect solution 😊
I recently bought the Fendi Sunshine Medium shopper tote. It’s a similar size to the smaller Dior book tote and similar price but all leather and comes with a shoulder strap as well. Loving it
I just bought pre loved book tote with a black jardin botanique design in the size large and I’m watching Why I shouldn’t do this ;-) I tried both sizes last summer in the Dior store in Dublin and believe me, I didn’t feel size L is not for me and now I ordered size L. I think because of the botanique design ;-)
I've always wanted to get the same Dior book tote for travel flex. I was underwhelmed by the smaller version because for me it's "go big or go home." Because it's untreated canvas, I'm a bit nervous about it getting dirty. I actually have a similar-sized synthetic shopper tote that I got for free from my purchase at a beauty supply store. It has longer handles and a snap button for closure - I use it so much to just throw my handbag in, and other items to keep in my car and bring into the office. If Dior added a snap button and longer handles so you can wear it over your shoulder, I would buy it. Usually, if brands hear this feedback long enough, they will make changes. Hopefully, Dior sees this (and sponsors CA$$IE) lol.
Hey Gurl hey!!!!! From the title, I knew I’d like you video and plus it’s you that brings us back!!! It’s a beautiful bag, but I don’t want ripped arms like that but the handles being ruined would tick me off. Ohhh and there’s no closure to it, so yup it’s not secure. Happy new year 🎊🎆🥰
I always felt like this bag looked like a very bougie beach bag. I can definitely see myself putting my towel and sunscreen in and carrying it to the beach should I ever get invited to a beach day with the Queen.
Haha so true - it’s a FABULOUS beach bag 🤩
I thought it was a beach bag 🥴😂🙈
Omg yes! Beach bag 110% 🤣🤣🤣
But its design is so beautiful.
Living in a city center, a zip is a must have on my bags. In Ye Old Pre-Plague Times, with a crowd of people on the street, there's no way I'd go out with an open top bag.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Pre plague time . Deceased 🤣😂
Is it the new chanel necklace that you got for Christmas ?
Omg i love it
It is! Thank you 🙌🏽💖
Definitely knew this style of bag would be way too impractical for me. So large and no zip or strap is a no go
💖💖
That f#%king necklace though. I can see you still rocking that in 10 years. It's made for you.
Aahh thank you so much! I love it 🤩🤩
Beginning 2021 looking like a snack 😍 love the necklace.
Aahh thank you queen 🙈💖💖
No she’s looking like the entire meal with all this chic she has going on! 🙌🏾😍
@@king_threadz1874 You are correct. I stand corrected lol
@@CassieThorpe You're welcome!
I own the LV On The Go Tote in Reverse monogram and absolutely LOVE IT!!!! Loving your new CHANEL chain necklace. Gorgeous!!!
Yes! Such a fabulous bag 🤩 thanks so much 🙌🏽💖
I would buy it on sale/preloved just for the look but full price? No sis
I would totally use it as an overnight bag, it’s beautiful. I saw the video on how it’s made.
Coach does really nice ones are they are so cheap but do not look cheap. In fact Coach is an underrated brand
SSSHHHH! Don't tell anyone about Coach, it's mine, all mine!

Oh yes it’s so pretty and some of the designs are 😍😍😍
I know it's such a dream! I want something in the oblique i love it so much!!
Is this bag easy to clean? Do you scotchgaurd it?

Yay! Glad you agree 🙌🏽💖
Can you link where you got the insert!?
Thanks for this info, I definitely have some things to consider before making this purchase
That Dior is simply gorgeous. Stunning. I have the ONTHEGO and Rive Gauche. Both are great, but that Dior is gorge!

Yes! The onthego is fabulous - I totally agree with you 🙌🏽💖
Agree with all of your points. I would need an insert with organization that adds a zip to even consider this unfortunately

The Fendi tote is probably the most gorg IMO thanks for the video
Yes! Fendi does some great ones! 🙌🏽💖
Thanks for the video and review!! I love the Dior tote and wanting to buy for more than a year but many thoughts. So i buy one of yours suggestions Lv
I’m so glad it was helpful! 🙌🏽💖
Good points. I appreciate it from afar as it looks lovely but rather put my coin towards other bags. If it were gifted, I certainly wouldn’t deny it.
Ooh if it’s gifted I’d happily accept 🙌🏽💖
Wished you had told me this in May...I used it once and it back in the box collecting dust. You look stunning!!!!!
Oh no 🙈 and thanks so much! 💖
I think the small is pretty cute. Def not the mini or this humongous bag mum has. Does mum use it
I think so too! She uses it every day for work 🙈😂

So the rest of the bag hasn’t worn much at all and looks perfect - not sure about the staining/resilience 💖
Love your cool looking long style chain necklace in the video
Thanks Tyler! 🙌🏽
You have such some beautiful looking jewelry you are always wearing in your videos I love it alot
You look amazing! The necklace 😍😍😍😍
Aahhh thank you 🙈💖
Everything you’ve just said is 100% right regarding the Christian Dior book tote I have one because of all the reasons above I then had to go and buy the Gucci off the Grid tote. And now I only use my Book tots as Beach bag.
So happy you shared this! 🙌🏽💖
Hi Cassie, just a quick qu about that chain (I've had my eye on it). Do you think its long enough to use as a cute belt too?
Sadly I don’t think it is 😪
Cassie,the Chanel necklace is so gorgeous😃😃
Aahh thanks Kimmy 🙈💖
That bag is massive, great insight!
I just had my Gucci SA order in the Medium Ophidia tote bag with the leather trim, and I cannot wait!.. I am obsessed already! 🥰
Yes! That tote is so great and so underrated! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
I only got this bag for fashion statement lol I'm 5'4, the larger size looks better on me than the small
Totally agree! I'm 5'3" and went for the large as well. Just looooove the look especially with long coats
Hello, you are so right I bought the GM NEVERFULL and that bag was neverfull alright ,I would carry around a house with a bad back.I could never just carry a couple of things so my sister wanted it and I gave it to her, hence I would never buy the Dior large tote.I love the necklace I knew I should have bought it when I seen it before Christmas.

Agree! I have this bag in leather... Even heavier! I bought it for travelling, and I can't carry it, I usually lean the bag on the suitcase...
Me too! That’s the only way I use my leather one 🙈😂
Really appreciated this video! I've always wanted one - i love the limited edition prints, but I know it's hella impractical. Thanks for confirming! x
So happy it was helpful! They’re so pretty but damn it, the downsides 😫
i have that one large closing with zip
Thank you. It was in time for guests.
Not really looking for a tote but if I do, I feel like LV on the go is better since that has the shoulder strap.
Yep I agree! 🙌🏽
You’re so pretty Cassie 😭😍
And you’re too kind 🙈💖

Oh we KNEW sis was going to serve us the turtleneck/new Chanel piece look she talked about very soon and I personally was awaiting the day💅🏾😩❤️

Hahaha 🙈😂 so glad you enjoyed it!
These are my same thoughts on the bag. The chanel neckless you got for X'mas looks stunning on you !
Aahh thank you! 🙌🏽💖
I think it’s overpriced for what it is, i feel like luxury houses are punking us at times with plastic Chanel bags and this tote.
What’s the tea on the leather version?? I was considering it! Great video! 💕

Necklace en pointe😍All excellent reasons as to why I don’t have any “tote” style bags.Some are quite tempting though......😎
Aahh thank you 🙌🏽💖
I've always wanted to get the same Dior book tote for travel flex. I was underwhelmed by the smaller version because for me it's "go big or go home." Because it's untreated canvas, I'm a bit nervous about it getting dirty. I actually have a similar-sized synthetic shopper tote that I got for free from my purchase at a beauty supply store. It has longer handles and a snap button for closure - I use it so much to just throw my handbag in, and other items to keep in my car and bring into the office. If Dior added a snap button and longer handles so you can wear it over your shoulder, I would buy it. Usually, if brands hear this feedback long enough, they will make changes. Hopefully, Dior sees this (and sponsors CA$$IE) lol.
Omg I wish 😉💖💖
Hey Gurl hey!!!!! From the title, I knew I’d like you video and plus it’s you that brings us back!!! It’s a beautiful bag, but I don’t want ripped arms like that but the handles being ruined would tick me off. Ohhh and there’s no closure to it, so yup it’s not secure. Happy new year 🎊🎆🥰
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Happy New Year 🥳💖💖
