Thanks for the review, I'm still trying to decide between the Looping and the Musette Tango. You've given me a ton of insight! It looks like KC Authenticators is no longer, do you have any recommendations for other authenticators? Thanks again!
I'm so glad this was helpful! Bummer about KC Authenticators 😕. It does indeed look like they went out of business! I'd try Authenticate First or Real Authentication. I've used both in the past with great success 🙌.
OMG I have had this bag foreverrrrr, lol. My strap is trash so I'm going to try to find something on Amazon. The strap hardware is square shaped so it's hard to find strap replacements but my journey continues.
Thank you so much for your review! Based on it, I decided to take the plunge and buy one! Can I ask you a question about your bag? Do you happen to know the measurements of the rectangle rings that connect the bag to the strap? Unfortunately the bag I bought (being shipped soon) has really bad chipped hardware and I plan to replace it with brass. Cannot find this into anywhere and trying to purchase replacements to arrive at the same time. Any help is appreciated!
Congratulations on your new purchase! I'm so glad this was helpful 😁. The measurements you requested are: 1"×0.75". Good luck! Let me know how it turns out 🥰.
@@laurenromeo Ok, so as requested, I am updating you. I received my bag (over the moon!) today and I promptly started cleaning it. I used Brasso on the hardware not expecting great results since the plating on the hardware was chipped and scratched. To my surprise, using Brasso and q-tips shined the dark and dull base metal to a lovely gold! So needless to say, I don't need to replace the hardware! I am confused though - is the base metal brass and if it is actually brass, why LV would put a finish over it? Anyway, that's my story. I appreciate you letting me share! :)
@@caseys.2371 @Casey S. thank you so much for the update! I was so curious to see how things turned out for you ☺️. For the longest time, the metal LV used on their bags was straight up brass. No coatings etc. I would bet the metal on this particular bag is indeed brass, but it appears to have some sort of a coating on the exterior (mine looks this way upon further inspection). Probably just to keep it looking "nice"? Brass always polishes up so easily.. so I don't understand the need for a coating either. Maybe they thought it would make things easier for the customer? How I wish LV would put this much thought into their products as they did back then 😅. Enjoy your new bag 🥰!
@@laurenromeo I do understand. Things have been frenetic all around. I can't believe it's February already. I did enjoy the video -- thanks ever so much!
Thanks for your reply! You have convinced me to buy the bag but i got it in damier ebene now currently waiting for the extension strap cos i do find it abit short to be crossbody w/o the extension strap. But anyways thank you for your video and your reply!
I purchased this bag after watching your review. I found it on Fashionphile for a steal! Thank you! Thanks also for the crossbody suggestion. I ordered a vachetta strap from Amazon that includes the extender! My only surprise is that the bag is smaller than I imagined. Do you own the mini pochette and does it fit in the Tango? If so, I will have to get the mini pochette to sub for my Toiletry 19 which does fit, but takes up about 90 percent of the bag. Thanks a million!
Hi! So glad you were able to snag one at a great price 😍. I don't currently own a mini pochette, but it should fit just fine. It would imagine it take up a good portion of space within the bag though 😪.
Thank you for the review and strap extender suggestion. I got this bag 7 years ago from a pre-loved luxury store. Didn’t know what style it was until now. It’s a 1999 vintage and in pristine condition. Just recently had it authenticated and am surprised that it is now double the price I paid for. I will definitely be getting the strap extender as I like the crossbody style.
I love this bag. I accidentally return a new pochette accessoir and got the Musset tango instead. I can fit more thing in it...it's more versatile...and the canvas has better quality on vintage models.
Hi! I usually authenticate once the item arrives, but you could totally do it before purchasing. I'd actually recommend the later, especially if you're feeling any sort of uncertainty. Hope this helps 🙏.
I totally forgot about the Musette line, but I remember I wanted a Musette Salsa back in the day. I might have to search for one now that I've seen your review. Thank you for sharing, and congrats on the new bag!!
I absolutely loooove vintage LV! I hadn’t heard of this bag before and really enjoyed watching your review! New subbie here 🤗 I love connecting with other luxe youtubers!
Wow the vachetta on your musette still looks great. I'm also trying to search this on the preloved market. I saw one for 750usd but didn't come as close to your bag's status. I'm jealous.
Hi Lauren, thank you for your video. What is the name of the platform?
omg I just bought this bag to resell it but now i want to keep it lol
Thank you for the review. Could I ask if you’ll still recommend this bag now? Thanks.
Thanks so much for watching! Yes. Still so in love with the bag. It's such a great size and shape for daily wear!

Hi! Check out the Etsy shop I have linked. I bet she could completely make a new strap for you 😁
Thank you for the video
Absolutely! Thank you so much for watching. I really appreciate it so much!

Can you link the store where you bought the extender for the strap?
Hi!
Here it is:

Ahh! I clicked on the pic and there's a whole video!!! 😍😍😍
Hope you enjoyed it! I am terribly sorry my reply is so late. I swore I replied months ago...
@@laurenromeo I do understand. Things have been frenetic all around. I can't believe it's February already. I did enjoy the video -- thanks ever so much!
@@LolaJay_ February always flys by so fast! So glad you enjoyed the video 🥰
@@laurenromeo 🤗
Hi tfs ! Do u find the flap is easy to get in and out?
Hi! I find it pretty easy to use. I typically take the bag off my shoulder to access it a little better when I need to get things out of the bag.
Thanks for your reply! You have convinced me to buy the bag but i got it in damier ebene now currently waiting for the extension strap cos i do find it abit short to be crossbody w/o the extension strap. But anyways thank you for your video and your reply!
@@lianaross9665 so glad this was helpful!! Enjoy your new bag 🥰
@@lianaross9665Hey, where did you purchase your strap from? I have the Ebene also, and want it to be longer and comfortable for crossbody. Thanks!!

@@denisebayron44 please do! I'm super curious to hear your thoughts. Have a great day 😁.
I’m looking for a smaller size on this one. What size did you get ?
Can I get the link for the strap extender

Totally! It's just the right amount of space and so comfortable to wear.
does a waterbottle fits in?
Hi! It will be too slim for a water bottle, unfortunately.
@@laurenromeo :(((( oh nooo
I absolutely love vintage LV…did you authenticate before or after you purchased? I’m considering ordering Musette Tango and Salsa..TFS 🥰

Thanks so much for watching 🥰. You totally need this bag in your collection. I can absolutely see you wearing something like this!
@@laurenromeo I completely agree! I really miss this era of LV the designs were so perfect!
That is such a great classic bag!! With all the revamps THIS is one they should bring back 🥰
Imagine with a detachable strap 😌 ugh 😩 they need a re edition
@@RakeedahsCloset I couldn't agree more!!

Great bag & great video! I just received this bag myself as a (totally unexpected) gift! I love re-discovering these styles from my childhood :)
