Yes being a mother and being able to keep your children safe means having your hand ready at ALL times 🤩
I just got my Margaux 10 in the pebbled leather. The smaller bag is still very much the Margaux style and it is not heavy at all. The 10 and 12 are very roomy and of course have the attachable strap if a strap is needed. The price is was $3,590.00 which is very reasonable. The leather is beautiful and the bag is NOT HEAVY. It is hard to find a reasonably sized tote that has a shoulder strap. It's a great bag.
That’s great info to know, thank you for sharing! I think the shoulder strap on the smaller ones is a great option 👌🏽
Love all your points! So true. It took me years to figure out how to buy bags for my lifestyle and not aspirational bags.
Thanks! Yes and even still, sometimes I just buy a vintage bag because I like to collect and it may not be the most practical for my current phase of life lol
Love you, but I have the 15 and it is super light! The birkin 35 is very heavy on its own so it didn’t work for me.
That’s good to know!
And also I hope you didn’t take offense to the video, I don’t think it’s a bad bag- just not for me and my life
@@modeetchien you are so respectful and kind…. You told your truth and I love it!!!
And always love hearing other opinions too, that’s the fun with bags and fashion- it’s not serious! That’s good info for people to know it’s lighter than that birkin ❤
@@modeetchien absolutely 💯
I really enjoyed understanding your thought process and the analysis of whether a purchase is right for you or whether you are getting caught up in the hype and current trend cycle. Taking the time to work out whether a purchase actually works for your current lifestyle and needs is so critical, especially when it’s an expensive purchase. I think the Margaux is okay, I just find it a bit plain for the price - what I mean by that is that I don’t see sufficient design features to justify the price. It reminds me of a bag from Cuyana, which is a great brand, and significantly cheaper than the Margaux.
I definitely know what you mean- it’s been around for years and everyone hyped about it now had no interest when it wasn’t popular years ago. There’s definitely better items from The Row in my opinion. Thanks for watching!
I dont think the row is a trend at all. My margsux 10 is my most used bag.
I had young children once but if I'd bought this bag then, it would still be useful now, because kids grow.
Thanks for your input! The 10 is definitely a more practical size and the strap makes it more versatile I think- I’m glad to hear you love it!
I have a Marqaux 15. I do love it but I wish I’d gone with the 12 or even the 10 because they have a strap. Have a Birkin and have used it three times which is sad. Use my Kelly more. Again, I think because of the strap I tend to use them more.😊
Yes I do think the strap would make it more practical for sure. Do you find that size heavy to carry once your stuff is in it?
Yes ,for me the bag has to have a zip top and a strap or it's a no go
I think this was a great video. Thank you for your honest opinion. I’ve debated on the Margaux, honestly, for the past three years! I keep going back-and-forth and because I have a Birkin 35 and a few 30’s, I just have hesitated because it would essentially serve the same purpose lol. And I will admit it’s a bit annoying that it’s become so popular and trendy😂. So it’s a pass for now. I too go through pros and cons…will it be functional for me…with any bag purchase! You’re lovely and I’m glad I’ve stumbled upon your channel. Keep it up!! ❤
So kind thank you! Yes I agree especially if you have a birkin it seems redundant to have and when the trend passes you’ll still be reaching for your birkins instead
I agree about the bag being heavy over time carrying under the arms my lady. 👍🏼😘😘😘Sandy
Thanks for watching Sandy!
Thanks for this! Love your channel!
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it!! 🫶🏽
Also if you are in a city where you have to be conscious of pick pockets/theft. A cross-body is just practical from a security point of view. Plus you will be less tempted to leave on surfaces that are far from hygienic.
Yes definitely!
I have got the black half moon bag already. Do you recommend in getting the park tote medium too? My struggle is whether to invest in two bags from the same brand😂
To me they are completely different bags and uses so I definitely think there’s room in a collection for both! Plus they are so minimal and discreet it’s not obvious they are from the same brand, and excellent quality
I don’t think I understand the point of this video. So it was just 14 minutes of you telling us all of the reasons why a popular bag isn’t right for you?
Yes, I can’t say it’s not good for everyone because I’m not everyone- and if someone makes that kind of claim they are probably just full of it, right? But if someone is debating buying this bag and hasn’t thought about the cons of it, then this should be helpful because all that anyone else ever talks about is the pros
@@modeetchien But you’re not even presenting accurate info. It’s not heavy at all. It’s extremely light, honestly.
@@RobynA11would love to know what size and leather type you’re referring to, I think that’s helpful information when talking about weight and what bag in comparison since that’s opinion based. Also newer versions are canvas lined and not suede lined so that does cut weight a bit.
@@modeetchien I had the 17 in smooth with suede interior and it wasn’t what I would call heavy, especially given the size. I have the 15 in both leathers and they are very light. Compared to a Birkin, especially.
I guess I just think it’s odd to review a bag that you don’t have and speak to what you feel are the cons.
Sounds like it didn’t work out for you then? Apologies if you misunderstood the video topic, it wasn’t called a review because it wasn’t. My community and my other platforms have requested several times for me to make a video talking about my opinions on the Margaux bag. I definitely am not an expert on this bag and everything I said was just my opinion as I stated many times. And thank you for sharing your opinion, I think it’s really helpful that people hear both sides when making a decision if a bag is right for them or not.
Hi Natalie, I just found the Margaux 15 from Saks Fifth Avenue online for an amazing sale (50% off). I am anxiously awaiting it to arrive tomorrow.
I don’t know if it’s worth it at the current price of $5,190 plus my state tax but I was willing to buy it on sale even if it has some scratches.
Take care🌻
Wow on sale that’s a major score! You’ll have to let me know how you like it!
Oh gosh, thanks sweetheart for your excited response. I left a comment on luxmommy”s video because she did a quick review on hers in a size 10 and she ignored my comment and replied to the 9 people who had commented within the hour of her upload.
I was so bummed because I was so excited to share that information with others especially in the lux community who like a good deal. It’s the same color as hers I think.
Thanks again sweetheart, I purchased it because it will be graduation gift for my daughter. Also I didn’t want to pass on the deal should this item become more expensive in the next few years.
Loved your video and I agree with your points on being in different stages of our lives as moms. I too can relate to the toddler age. Enjoy your baby’s milestones hun, they grow up too quickly ❤️❤️
That’s so sweet of you to get it for her! That will always be a special bag then 🫶🏽 and of course, I try my best to respond to everything on my platforms, but occasionally things can slip and we don’t get notifications for comments which can def happen with others also!
You’re very kind Natalie, I actually watched her for years and never commented. She actually intentionally ignored my comment because she responded to people after my comment. It is what it is,
To be honest I watch UA-camrs who know nothing about the row talk a lot like they know the brand since the Margaux gained popularity.
I actually owned items from the row’s line and it’s sister brand Elizabeth and James before MK and Ashley decided to only focus on the row.
It’s funny to see the hysteria surrounding the Margaux as it was never on my radar but I wanted to see what the hype was about.
My daughter isn’t a fan of my Chanel classics and is more into the items like your park tote. The only reason why I got it was because it was on sale, I wore big bags in my teens, twenties and thirties. So I figured this is something she may enjoy when she graduates college.
Her favorite bag is her dad’s old school carryon binder 😅. I love so much and don’t want her to spend her earnings on anything designer. She’s a simple girl and could careless for things that I started buying as an adult.
Sorry to leave such a long message but I use to do UA-cam back in 2009 and stopped because it was not for me. Deleted my channel and never looked back. It’s hard when the same UA-camrs have grown in some capacity feel like engaging with another person who got a better deal just wants to be rude for whatever reason.
Thanks for listening dear❤️🌻
@@farsfavorites1945 I remember the Elizabeth and James line! You sound like an amazing and cool mom! Thank you for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it! ❤️
Get a Longchamp Pliage! Practical & chic. But please don't say it's a luxury bag, coz it's not. 🙄
That’s never really been my style personally but I know a lot of people love that bag 🤷🏻♀️
