Pochette Métis is my favourite crossbody of all time, I have three. Just goes to show people have different quirks and likes. It's optimal to try out a bag for a few days before buying it so maybe this luxury bag renting by month isn't a bad idea after all.
Agree....I just bought a 2nd Pochette Métis based on how functional it is. It is far better, and holds more than the Celine Teen Triomphe, which is quite a bit smaller, my Céline box bag, and is on par with my small Loewe Puzzle.
I am thinking of buying the reverse pouchette matisse. I saw a lady with one that looked so so old and color faded or something. How has yours held up?
I am so glad I gave this channel a 2nd chance! I previously skipped it because I got snob-vibes from her thumbnails. Wow! Was I wrong! She is now on my Top 5 luxury bag channels! I’m on video #4 for my binge night! I’ve enjoyed every minute! I love her accent, her knowledge, her taste, her collection, and she seems like a super nice person! Anyone know her name? I’m looking forward to continuing my binge-watch all weekend while my husband is out of town! Thank you for being a new favorite! ❤💕🤗😍
I think the Celine Belt Bag should be on your list, I have it in pico size and it‘s perfect for a very small crossbody bag. One other thing, too many LV bags why ?
Pochette Métis is one of the best cross body bags in my opinion. I found it to be such a practical bag, however, I ended up selling mine because I’m over LV.
Hi good information! I was surprised about the LV Neo Noé bag, I am 160 cm/5’3” and I love wearing it crossbody. Love it holds a water bottle and it doesn’t roll around. Maybe my strap is shorter 🤔
I'd recommend the TOM FORD Tara bag! It has a wide, webbed strap that ensures there will be no shoulder discomfort when wearing it for too long (as opposed to those bags with skinny leather straps).
I love your videos, Steph.❤You're knowledgeable & you share the info so well! That Bottega Camera Bag is SO good!📸But my fave is the Chanel Business Affinity Bag, so much prettier than the new Chanel Flap bag IMO.🤩🌻
Just bought the Times Square Shoulder bag from Coach and OMG! Can’t put it down, it’s lightweight, soft, beautiful and I’m not afraid of scratching. Plus I don’t worry about being targeted on the street. Highly suggest if you want an everywhere carry.
Love this bc I have all the "NOs" except the Dior Saddle and these are VERY valid points ya'll. I still love and use ALL of of them the but for CROSSBODY function Steph is right! (although my empreinte Metis works great for me) Really consider the functionality if that's what you are in need of. I also have 3 of the "YES" bags listed and they truly are so useful for everyday crossbody options 🥰
This the first handbag video I could agree today. I want hug that Loewe. I love love love those Le Pliages. So classy, easy to clean and quiet. What I personally disliked are LV Alma bb and MJ snap. First one hurts. You can’t get your hands in the purse without a scratch. Snapshot is nice, but if you are petite it is always in a wrong place. Hitting your hips and actually hurting you.
Well done on the rising subbie number 🏆 I love the saddle, but I think it looks best when carried just over the shoulder I have worn the Speedy 30 xbody, it works for me and I am not tall. I like the coussin Xbody too “different strokes for different folks”
Some bags make you have new looking , not always for crossbody at all. You like eating 1 kind of food, not meant you should not try other kinds. Some people like wearing bag at shoulders for elegance & party or just walk in restaurant & bar. It depends on what you like & taste. If you have no affordable to buy many bags as you want, then you can consider which best bag of your budget.
I have the pochette Métis and I wear it all the time. I’m sure I put too much inside. But I still wear it. My husband bought me the Louis Vuitton Reporter bag at an estate sale. It’s a heavy bag. But it holds more. Whoever owned it got one side of the strap fixed. While I was carrying it, the other side broke. So I need to take it and get it fixed. We found a place about an hour away to go have it fixed. I love the Celine bag. It is nice. But the DeMellier is more in my budget. Well, I love the Bottega camera bag too. Too bad I’m not a millionaire. I would have one of each.
I do like the Chanel single flap in the jumbo size as a crossbody. I agree they don’t look right on everyone but I am a plus size so the proportions work well on me. I don’t like the medium or the small worn crossbody. Having a bag shoved up under lefty isn’t a good look, although a lot of people do it.
The layout of the Coussin is so cumbersome, and it does not seem to add to the style. I just do not get the concept with it. I am a fan of the Reverse Pochette Metis for inclement weather days or active days, but the strap can be a bit annoying with the stiffness of it. The tips you gave are great.
LV Coussin is still my go to bag. Fits a lot and I don't have to be gentle with it, unlike Celine's Triomphe (sadly my samsung ultra phone with casing doesn't fit into Teen)
i had an Hermes Constance 21 and I felt like I fought with it every time I wore it. You cant set ithe bag down because it flops forward and it takes two hands to open and close and the H clasp svcatches easily IMO.. I'm not sure if the Constance 18 is any better- I would love input:)
If I had to do it over again I wouldn’t have bought the Chanel Classic Flap. I’m petite and the chain still isn’t long enough to wear crossbody so I leave it at home anytime I’m doing a day trip or traveling
My favorite crossbody are Chanel minis I have mines for years and they are my go to always. Babe the Chanel classic claps were never designed to crossbody they are shoulder feminine classic bags, so I don’t get why ppl keep trying to wear a bag that is not meant for crossbody as one 🤦🏼♀️. I am petite and I wear my small classics only if is an emergency but only for a moment, other wise I wear the minis as crossbody ones. 😊
You just contradicted yourself with the Chanel Classic Flap as worst because of the unadjustable chain strap but then the Chanel Business Affinity is part of the best eventhough the chain strap is unadjustable as well? I don’t think it is fair that these bags are classified as Best vs Worst because of the unadjustable chain strap for crossbody bags because it depends on one’s height and how it sits on one’s body.
Hey. Thanks for the comment. Yes I did contradict but the classic flap is designed to be a shoulder bag and they are infamous for having chain straps that are too short to crossbody or far too long. The BA however is a purpose made crossbody, so generally the strap length works better but definitely worth trying before buying.
Lets be frank: if you’re thicker, tall or bigger boobs crossbody bags need to be longer and if you’re shorter you need adjustable to shorten. Flat chests seem to work best w crossbody?

Me, too! It’s a perfect travel bag. So secure and holds my passport and other essential items. 😎🌺🍍

It’s my favourite too. I have two of them.
Métis is one the best for me too…
I want a whole video of "bags with a large pocket on the front"! I have been looking for one for ages. Thanks for the recs 🥰
You influenced me to buy the LV Odion last year; I wouldn’t have even looked at it if I hadn’t seen you show it. Thanks so much; I love it!!!
@@ellenmerkle940I love mine too! Have it for 2 years now and still looks amazing
I love my reverse pochette metis. I been using non stop last 5 yrs!

Love your cropped top! Very stylish.
Thank you!!
I think the Celine Belt Bag should be on your list, I have it in pico size and it‘s perfect for a very small crossbody bag. One other thing, too many LV bags why ?
Agreed! I am guessing LV because of the perception of luxury.
Pochette Métis is one of the best cross body bags in my opinion. I found it to be such a practical bag, however, I ended up selling mine because I’m over LV.
I replaced it with a very similar shaped one from Coach and love it even more!
Gentle and integrated into the secular, low-key and not lost in the crowd. *hotdups*
I have twin LV Oxford bags (one black and one brown) because I LOVE it so much! I tried loving the pouchette Métis and it just felt cheap😬
I have the Celine cross body bag in red and used it last year from Thanksgiving to Valentine's Day and just love it!
You got me addicted to the designer exchange … love this shop and got to know about this because of you ♥️♥️
I’ve had my Pochette Métis reverse monogram for 5 years one of my best purchases ever!
The Soho Disco is an enduring favourite! 🤩
I think the YSL camera bag should be on the best bag list.
Just love your new Celine ❤❤❤, the quality of the leather & hardware looks amazing 🤩.
Hi good information! I was surprised about the LV Neo Noé bag, I am 160 cm/5’3” and I love wearing it crossbody. Love it holds a water bottle and it doesn’t roll around. Maybe my strap is shorter 🤔
Love the Celine bag but is scared of scratches!
Longchamp is Amazing, love it. Have so many of them ❤❤❤
LV Bologne bag is very similar to the Odeon PM and a definite favourite ❤
I love my new Fendi By The Way in Selleria. The feeling and flexibility is wonderful. 🥰
Yes to the Speedy B 30 for crossbody! I don’t find it bulky. It’s a fantastic bag. Co grats on your new bag!
I love wearing my Dior saddles crossbody!
I love the Loewe fold bag.
It looks easy to wear and just a little different.
Totally disagree about the pochete metis!! I love it❤
I'd recommend the TOM FORD Tara bag! It has a wide, webbed strap that ensures there will be no shoulder discomfort when wearing it for too long (as opposed to those bags with skinny leather straps).
Omg thank you for highlighting this: I hate having handles on the way when I wear a bag crossbody 😂
Pochette métis is the best useful bag I never had, always travelling with
I love your videos, Steph.❤You're knowledgeable & you share the info so well! That Bottega Camera Bag is SO good!📸But my fave is the Chanel Business Affinity Bag, so much prettier than the new Chanel Flap bag IMO.🤩🌻
I so enjoy your channel. Thank you!
I have an unrelated question. Your eye makeup is fabulous. Would you mind sharing the products or do a tutorial?
Steph, thank you for this video. I ❤ it. It's so helpful. ❤
I'm so glad!
Just bought the Times Square Shoulder bag from Coach and OMG! Can’t put it down, it’s lightweight, soft, beautiful and I’m not afraid of scratching. Plus I don’t worry about being targeted on the street. Highly suggest if you want an everywhere carry.
I managed to get my hands on the LV Odeon MM size last year. Best purchase ever. Thanks for the recommendation Steph
Steph ,what do you think about the LV Boulogne? It’s not that popular. ❤️
Prada has nice crossbody bags too especially if you like carefree nylon and no monogram.
Hi Steph, love your trousers that you are wearing to show the yellow saddle bag at about 5.20 in. Where are they from? ❤
Thank you! They are 3.1 Phillip Lim high waist trousers
I love it that you are helping me making more value conscius choices.
Love this bc I have all the "NOs" except the Dior Saddle and these are VERY valid points ya'll. I still love and use ALL of of them the but for CROSSBODY function Steph is right!

Oh that BV bag is just wonderful 😍😊and if course the VC LePliage.
Well done on the rising subbie number 🏆
I love the saddle, but I think it looks best when carried just over the shoulder

Love my Pochette bag it’s red leather and it’s perfect as a crossbody for me
I have the energy large tote bag. Love it so much it’s my work back and I have it in the full black too 😊
Steph, what are your thoughts on Coach handbags? X
Hi! can you do one on bumbags/sling bags?
I agree that Dior Saddle with a long strap is just ridiculous. I never wear mine with the strap. It looks best as shoulder bag xx
I have the pochette Métis and I wear it all the time. I’m sure I put too much inside. But I still wear it. My husband bought me the Louis Vuitton Reporter bag at an estate sale. It’s a heavy bag. But it holds more. Whoever owned it got one side of the strap fixed. While I was carrying it, the other side broke. So I need to take it and get it fixed.

Love my LV Oxford, got it when it first came out ❤
Does the Celine Teen Triomph leather scratch easily?

best crossbody right now I think is bottega andiamo small and medium
If I had to do it over again I wouldn’t have bought the Chanel Classic Flap. I’m petite and the chain still isn’t long enough to wear crossbody so I leave it at home anytime I’m doing a day trip or traveling
I have the Oxford and i love it.
Can you plz let’s us know how the Celine bag look after wear and tear ! It’s very prone to scratches and spots 😢
For sure will do an update soon. The bag is already preloved and the leather looks great. Some scratches to hardware
What do you think about Goyard?
Wow I use my black pocket Métis leather bag for work and travel. I for two phones two charges kegs walket
Is the le pilage waterproof?
My favorite crossbody are Chanel minis I have mines for years and they are my go to always. Babe the Chanel classic claps were never designed to crossbody they are shoulder feminine classic bags, so I don’t get why ppl keep trying to wear a bag that is not meant for crossbody as one 🤦🏼♀️. I am petite and I wear my small classics only if is an emergency but only for a moment, other wise I wear the minis as crossbody ones. 😊
I never see any of the UA-camrs I follow with Louboutin handbags, I know they are known for their shoes but how are their bags?
The celine is worse than pochette Metis! No room. I have both and the Metis has more space and is easier to open 😍
Am wondering how you feel about handbag charms. Too fussy and silly? Thanks.
The celine triomphe is so not quiet luxury. The logo is as big as YSL’s
No YSL? Is Ysl out of favor?
Steph Today you are looking just Wow and what a lovely beautiful bags and How's your health and How's Everything💖💖💖
Thank you so much Mansoor ✨

I really like your blogs but I do not like the quality of or branding of Louis Vuitton can you recommend more crossbody s without all the logo

You call that celine bag quiet luxury? The logo couldn't be any bigger.
Returned bottega bowling bag, zipper is awful
BOO no GUCCI, missing out!
Wear what you want? 🤷♂️
This was VERY LV centric lol
saddle bag looks like a liver
❤❤❤❤
🤗🤗🤗
The Dior saddle is hideous! I don’t understand….
