Thankyou so much for this video, Deb!! Yes yes yes I totally agree! I have a large collection of Lady Diors, but as soon as I bought my lady Djoy ( in the medium latte), it has become my new favorite Dior bag. It’s just so pleasurable to wear especially everyday. I love how easy it is to retrieve my items in the DJoy, whereas it’s a bit more difficult with the Lady Dior. And yes! Definitely the Djoy’s adjustable straps make it a pure delight to wear shoulder or crossbody; I’m never able to comfortably wear my Lady diors crossbody. I only wish I had that stunning purple one you have! It’s heart stopping!!🤩
Aw thank you. I love the aesthetic of the lady dior but I’ve never loved using it. I am in love with the purple mulberry colour. It’s surprisingly easy to style. Maybe as I wear so much black or grey 😂
I tried the Lady Dior several times in the large, medium and the mini. It just didn’t work for me. Especially the annoying handles. Then I got the D Joy medium and I love it. Being able to fold down the handles and having a wider opening made this much more useable. It’s a pity they won’t tweak the design of the Lady Dior to allow the handles to fold down.
Very interesting review of these 2 versions of the lady Dior. The D-joy looks so much more easy to use. My only concern is if they are just part of the East-West trend that will disappear or if they’re here to stay.
The way I see it. Real or fake if it's a style I like then I like it and will buy it. But to me the *preluxz* one looks better than the real one. And who's gonna be inspecting ladies purses. If your out there trying to figure out if someone's bag is real who are you the prise police? So If you can get a really nice fake one then why not? Most of us don't have thousands dollars to spend on a real one and wouldn't anyway. No one has to know if it's fake or real. That's nobodies business. Enjoy and wear your bag which ever you have.
I need an honest answer please. Between this lady d joy and the Caro styles, which do you feel brings you more joy carrying, and which is most functional? I am heading to Hawaii in a week and would really like to invest in another bag. And I do not want to impulse buy.
I do love both. The d joy is more stunning. A little fiddly with the flap and handles jangling etc and I would say it’s more of an evening bag for me. The Caro is also stunning but a little more casual and more for during the day but also nice in the evening. It’s easy to use and beautiful. I think it depends on when you want to use it. Also whether you def want a top handle. I also think the price maybe comes into play. The one that brings most joy is the DJoy but a lot of that is the colour. I love using the Caro also as it’s easy and goes with everything. Caro is an all rounder. Hope this helps ? X
Great video. I do own a medium d'joy in python. It is my favorite. I do not own a medium lady but am consider it for my next one. I do have a question. For resale value, on unicorn bags, do you think the medium lady or d'joy is the better investment?
I had Lady Dior in my wishlist for so long but made the plunge with Lady D-Joy small in powder pink instead as I am petite. Absolutely love the versatile looks and that it can be worn more casual than a Lady D. So glad you shared the cons of the Lady D. No regrets on my side now 🥰
I have no problems with Lady Dior handles. If you attach the strap / chain ( in mini size version) to the outer side of the connecting rings, the handles will stay in upright position. While I do find the East-West style interesting, I think it's a trendy bag and will be discontinued by Dior at some point.
Thank you! Yes I’ve def tried that but then the handles stay up but I find them uncomfortable. You might be right with the djoy being a little more trend driven and it may well be discontinued but I don’t mind about that. I just prefer it so that’s enough for me x
I own the medium d joy in rose peony a seasonal color. I LOVE it for all the reasons you do. It's a stunning bag that fits curry bodies exceptionally well.
I am interested in getting a d-joy east west, I just love the shape! But my abc lady Dior is tried and true, fits a paperback, my small purse, hand sanitizer, keys! I need to know, can the east west do a paperback? Also surprisingly, you don’t need to have a thin thin paperback, a normal one fits! I recent read “rules of civility” by amor Towles and that fit excellently!
A paperback - normal size - does fit in but the flap has to be adjusted slightly. - it’s still doable but you wouldn’t get many other things in your bag as well x
I agree with you regarding the straps, and the handles laying down properly!!! The DeJoy would be my choice too! Does the bag sit upright with and without items since it doesn’t have feet? Enjoyed the video!!!🤗
I loved this comparison. And while I hope to buy the medium djoy it did inspire me to buy my first Dior bag! I went for the My Dior top handle in black because it looks elegant and smaller for evening use yet large enough to hold a pair of glasses and my daily items. The logo is also very small with lots of the puffy stitching visible. By comparison, I thought the similar looking Chanel flap bags were rather boring and their chain straps looked uncomfortable.
I love the Lady Dior from a distance. The handles not folding and the difficulty getting in however that East/west is just perfect I’m currently lusting over the D-light! Thanks for this great video.
They both are so beautiful but if someone offered me one, I’d choose the East/West Lady Dior. Though I’ve never seen either, I think that it should be more desirable than a Chanel Classic Flap. Awesome video, Deb, thanks!
I just found your video ❤I love both bags I have the red small abc I would love to have the djoy in the purple (my favorite color) if you ever want to sell. Would you keep me in mind? 🙏 I always seem to be late for everything 😂
Sold mine satin one on. Love the look but could not deal with the top handles flapping around, charms seemed cheap looking, and hard to get in and out of.
perfect timing. i was able to finally go and see a lady dior, as i had to decide between a small and a medium. decided on a small which i will be buying preloved because sadly it does not keep its value. anyways, now im regretting not trying on or asking to see the DJOY. i saw it and it looked so pretty.however i felt like i had already wasted the SAs time for not buying anything, asking to see the saddle and the lady so i felt bad asking to see another bag. to turn around and still not buy anything. as im thinking the DJOY is also cheaper on the resale market.
The DJoy is fab. I love it. I am sure the sales associate would not have minded. I often try a few things on to make my mind up about which I prefer even if I’m not buying that day x
I have the same cherry red medium with the zip..love the looks of the Lady Dior but it’s the most annoying bag to use. I have used it so carefully but already there is so much wear and tear on the sides 😢 can’t sell it as it has horrible resale value
@@Wildunfiltered it had your initials that how I could tell, I get new ones sent to my WhatsApp before they are on the website! I saw it and thought was it yours then you did this video and I checked out the initials x
i love Ld but they are not so functional and are delicate to use… recently bought the carnage calf book tote with the Dior charms, to me it’s a book tote and a LD at the same time yet very functional with the additional strap for daily commuting. i love the color on yr djoy😊
My Medium Lady Dior in black lambskin is my favorite bag of ALL TIME! I am obsessed with mine and if I had to give up my entire collection except for one, I would keep the lady. I have thought about the djoy however the feet on the bottom of the lady is what makes my heart sing
I wonder whether in a years time Dior will bring out The Lady Dior bag with these newer additions. I love both your bags. Personally, I prefer the original shape.
Agree with you about Djoy. The look of Lady Dior is classic but the versatility of DJoy is unique. The flap is the best invention. The zipper before would rip the skin of your hand getting in and out!!!
I have the Lady Dior in the medium size in the old style with the zipper. It’s actually my husband’s favorite bag I own. I think most of my bags are annoying so I really don’t mind carrying this bag because it makes such a statement.

I have the deep Burgundy My Lady Dior...I love it, and quite like the jangling 😂 lovely feel in the hand and nice and sturdy ❤
Ooh the burgundy is gorgeous x
I prefer the look of the original as a handheld bag, but the newer version definitely has some pluses
I love it x
I tried the Lady Dior several times in the large, medium and the mini. It just didn’t work for me. Especially the annoying handles. Then I got the D Joy medium and I love it. Being able to fold down the handles and having a wider opening made this much more useable. It’s a pity they won’t tweak the design of the Lady Dior to allow the handles to fold down.
Exactly. I don’t know why they don’t change the handles on the lady Dior x
I love them both! I love Dior in general. Both of yours are gorgeous!
Thank you so much!!
Great comparison Deb! Maybe I need the D-joy!
I think you’d love it Meredith. It’s a fab bag x
Very interesting review of these 2 versions of the lady Dior. The D-joy looks so much more easy to use. My only concern is if they are just part of the East-West trend that will disappear or if they’re here to stay.
Yep they are probably more trend driven but I don’t mind about that. I would rather have a bag I love than one I have just because it’s a classic etc.

I would like one of each please! Thanks for the video!💕
😂
Love *jklux* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other UA-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
Love thiss..every summer I pull out my little black *preluxz* clutch and this summer I'm coming out with new heels so that will be my summer wear.
I need an honest answer please. Between this lady d joy and the Caro styles, which do you feel brings you more joy carrying, and which is most functional? I am heading to Hawaii in a week and would really like to invest in another bag. And I do not want to impulse buy.

We're twinning with the lady dior in cherry. Mine is just in patent. I prefer the classic look❤
Yay! 👯♀️
Love them both! Wondering if the D-Joy stands upright on its own since there are no feet?
Erm it doesn’t stand up as well as the lady Dior. X
Great video. I do own a medium d'joy in python. It is my favorite. I do not own a medium lady but am consider it for my next one. I do have a question. For resale value, on unicorn bags, do you think the medium lady or d'joy is the better investment?
Honestly I don’t think either will do that well on the resale market so I wouldn’t base your buying decision on that alone x
@Wildunfiltered ok. It is a rare Unicorn. Was unsure
I had Lady Dior in my wishlist for so long but made the plunge with Lady D-Joy small in powder pink instead as I am petite. Absolutely love the versatile looks and that it can be worn more casual than a Lady D. So glad you shared the cons of the Lady D. No regrets on my side now 🥰
Ah that’s brilliant. Love the DJoy. You won’t regret it. X

@@Wildunfiltered Well, I only have two LD in size mini and standing up handles don't bother me. Maybe it's different with the larger sizes.
On the side note: the color of your DJOY is to die for! @@Wildunfiltered
@@oldpalmcity yes maybe so. X
@@oldpalmcity thank you! The colour is insane x
I own the medium d joy in rose peony a seasonal color. I LOVE it for all the reasons you do. It's a stunning bag that fits curry bodies exceptionally well.

Ooh let me see!
A paperback - normal size - does fit in but the flap has to be adjusted slightly. - it’s still doable but you wouldn’t get many other things in your bag as well x
Thank you for the capacity comparison. Very helpful. Slightly gutted that the D-Joy doesn’t have feet though
Yep feet would make it perfect x
nice vid - btw, I think they are just handles lol no one sees the C&D - as if! haha
Yep exactly. No idea why they don’t make the handles go flush like the DJoy. X
I agree with you regarding the straps, and the handles laying down properly!!! The DeJoy would be my choice too! Does the bag sit upright with and without items since it doesn’t have feet? Enjoyed the video!!!🤗
It does sit up but not as easily as the lady Dior. X
I loved this comparison. And while I hope to buy the medium djoy it did inspire me to buy my first Dior bag!

Aw thank you so much x
If you didn’t have these videos providing your 1st hand experience with these bags, I could find myself making a very costly mistake. Thank you!!!

Just is so annoying x
they improved it so much❤
I love it so much x

My comment didn’t stay up again! I noticed the day I watched this video your lady dior was up for sale ! ❤
Really? 🤔 sure it was mine?
@@Wildunfiltered it had your initials that how I could tell, I get new ones sent to my WhatsApp before they are on the website! I saw it and thought was it yours then you did this video and I checked out the initials x
@lv_lover3393 eagle eyed!
I love the lady d but I know it would drive me crazy with the handles not laying flat as I always crossbody. I admire from a distance ❤
I totally agree! X
i love Ld but they are not so functional and are delicate to use… recently bought the carnage calf book tote with the Dior charms, to me it’s a book tote and a LD at the same time yet very functional with the additional strap for daily commuting. i love the color on yr djoy😊
Yes! I love this new book tote in the cannage.

Oh I love this! I love hearing about how passionate you guys are. Love it x
All the things that annoy me about the lady Dior are eliminated in the d joy! I want one so bad!
It’s amazing x
I tried the D-joy bag and all kinda look small for me lol
The chain is also weird … can’t beat lady dior for sure
I love it x
I love the Djoy! It is so versatile. And the color is to die for 💗
Really is x
I wonder whether in a years time Dior will bring out The Lady Dior bag with these newer additions. I love both your bags. Personally, I prefer the original shape.
Yes I wonder if they will. They def should x
Thank you
You're welcome
Agree with you about Djoy. The look of Lady Dior is classic but the versatility of DJoy is unique. The flap is the best invention. The zipper before would rip the skin of your hand getting in and out!!!
Exactly x
I have the Lady Dior in the medium size in the old style with the zipper. It’s actually my husband’s favorite bag I own. I think most of my bags are annoying so I really don’t mind carrying this bag because it makes such a statement.
They really do look amazing x
D Joy all the way!!!💜💜💜
Lady Dior is a no for me. Basically the handles.
Exactly x the DJoy is so much better x
