Lauren I also suffer from panic disorder and anxiety. Sometimes it is so hard to walk a block I try to find a cure and a good doctor, but it is so hard. I love you bag and all the goodies inside and your cat looks a lot like mine. Thanks for awesome videos.
Aww thank you for the kind words of support Lois. I don't often share much of my personal life, so it's amazing to know there is such a kind, empathic community here on UA-cam. It's been a struggle over the past few years, but like you said, finding the right medical professionals has really helped. 💕 I hope you are doing well and give your cat a belly rub for me! (My cat hates it...but I always sneak it in haha).
Hey Lauren :) I know it's a bit of a strange question, but are you ever concerned that other coworkers of yours might get jealous if you wear luxury name brand bags at work? I love your bags and your style btw! That's my greatest concern, and a reason for why I am cognizant of which brands I wear. I work in teaching and the one time I wore a Longchamp bag, an EA made a dirty remark and I didn't appreciate it. Firstly, she asked how much the bag was. Then she asked me where I lived and if I rented or owned a home. I actually own a home, however; I said I rented. Perhaps she's jealous that I can buy that bag as I am younger than her (I am 31 and she is in her 50's). I have other nice bags that I'd like to wear including my goyard tote. How can I wear my nice bags at work without fear of judgment? I find that people at work are so nosy and sometimes jealous. Thanks for sharing that you suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I have some depression and anxiety. I am sorry that your dad passed away :(. You seem like such a genuine/kind person. And yay! I'm glad we're both teachers!
Hi Jess! I hope that you are having a relaxing start to your summer! We work so hard throughout the whole year, the break is much needed! Honestly, I haven't really thought about what other staff/students might think about my handbags or luxury purchases. How we choose to spend our money is nobody's business 😊. If they ask, tell them they can look up the price online haha. I always think of the saying "confidence is silent, insecurities are loud". Wear your bags! You work hard for your money, enjoy it!
I am a shopper who hates making impulsive purchases because I change my mind so easily on products especially if they are seasonal or trendy. I finally pulled a trigger to place an order for a pair of sunglasses that I’ve been wanting for a long time. Balenciaga is one of the high end designers I adore and your tote bag is absolutely stunning. I used your code and saved $$$. Thank you so much Lauren!!❤️❤️
The essential oils from Saje are so convenient for on the go, if it works or not it definitely helps me feel calmer! Thanks for opening up about your anxiety 💕
Such a great and in depth bag review Lauren, it looks great and i didn’t even know Balenciaga did this tote. Loved your Goyard tote and u totally enabled me then to get mine and it’s my favourite work tote to date. ♥️
This is a great bag. I love how you can just throw it on your shoulder unlike some totes as you stated you have to use 2 hands. Definitely going to be a great bag for summer. TFS ❤️❤️
Hi Lauren, I bought this bag in Waikiki during my vacation. After watching your review I had to have it! It's such a good deal there, Hawaii pricing plus an extra 10% off. It was hard to find but the customer service was exceeded my expectations in both stores. I can't wait to use it. I just sprayed it with Apple guard to make it waterproof, hopefully it will help with the color transfer too. You should try it. I was nervous to do it but it didn't change the color or the texture. I wish the bag has a magnetic closure but I still love it. Thank you for sharing this.
Congratulations! It's such an amazing bag and I'm so happy that you are loving it! In Canada, we don't have easy access to Apple Guard. I'll try it with my Kiwi protector! Thanks for the tip!
I chew a ton of gum too and my face gets dry sometimes but I use natural coconut oil at night time and than wash it off 15minutes later and It sets me up for the next day.
I’m also looking for a new work bag. I’ve been debating between this and the Cabas tote.. but I might go with this as it can probably fit my lunch box and maybe a light sweater for the office!!
Thanks for the in depth bag review! I love the look of light canvas but I’m still hesitant with stains and marks. 😅 I’d love to see a wear and tear at the end of the season if you have the time. Love your videos❤️
Oh, Lauren…now I need this. I love that you are a fellow tote lover! Do you still have the Burberry one? I’m curious to see how it’s wearing. Love your videos and your style! ❤️
Welcome back how long were you gone do you think because I have not thought of you until I saw this video right here🤗😍 stay safe and have a nice week ♥️☺️
I've been wanting this since you did the unboxing. I can't decide on the size and color. If you do decide on the bigger size..would you get the same one with paris? Tfs!
I would probably get the large in the black, just for something different. I love the white and if I didn't have it in the small, I'd probably get in the large. I find that the Paris lettering fits perfectly on the bag and doesn't look to squished like say "Los Angeles" does. I also like the one that says "London". I honestly love the bag so much!
I think the only issue with the black would be lint. I have the Marc Jacobs Canvas Tote bag in black and it's a lint magnet! But, I always have a lint roller handy 😂. I love the black Paris tote and I'd probably opt for that in the large!
I just came back on here to tell you i got the small in black and it's so cute!! I was worried it might be too small but its so perfect!! Thank you for sharing!! I aslo got it on fwrd on sale!!
Great review! Do you not need to carry a laptop with you? It looks like one fits but just curious! I recently purchased a Chloe Woody tote and I'm also worried about the wear on it, but haven't been super careful and it has so far been great! I think I need to stop underestimating lighter colored bags!
Ohhh I love the Chloe woody tote! I have the wool version and it’s was great last winter! It’s surprisingly heartier than I thought it would be. I have heard great things about the canvas version! Congrats! I have a laptop at work, so I don’t need to take one with me. My shoulder is grateful for that haha.
Can you please update us on how the bag is wearing? I want to buy it but I wear black all the time and worry about transfer. I love how the cream looks more than the black!
UGH, it's disgusting and I can't believe that they even thought about bringing children into a campaign like that. Shame on them. I know that they are placing the blame on the photographer, but c'mon they had to approve the photos. As much as I love the quality of their handbags, they are definitely not on my radar anymore.

Nice bag and it's nice that you share about your anxiety because I also have anxiety these days and worst panic attack.
Aww thank you for the support! Anxiety and panic attacks can really take a toll on a person's quality of life. I hope that you are doing well. xo

Ohhh congratulations! I’ve been eyeing some Balenciaga sunnies too! I’m so happy you saved some extra money too!
The essential oils from Saje are so convenient for on the go, if it works or not it definitely helps me feel calmer! Thanks for opening up about your anxiety 💕
I’ve really been loving the pocket farmacy from Saje! I’m still new to the brand, so any suggestions are welcome!
It's a gorgeous bag. I love that shade of off white but i don't think i could look after it yet😅😅
LOL! I thought so too, but so far, so good! (Knock on wood). I think it will be great for the warmer months!
Such a great and in depth bag review Lauren, it looks great and i didn’t even know Balenciaga did this tote. Loved your Goyard tote and u totally enabled me then to get mine and it’s my favourite work tote to date. ♥️
Ohh, yes, if you love the Goyard...I think you'll like this one! Glad to hear you are still loving the St.Louis!
Thank you so much for taking the time to film this, Lauren!! ☺️ Such a cute bag!
Thank you for all the support! 💕
This is a great bag. I love how you can just throw it on your shoulder unlike some totes as you stated you have to use 2 hands. Definitely going to be a great bag for summer. TFS ❤️❤️
Yes! It's been amazing! Very carefree and goes with almost everything! 💕

Oh I have the Glow Receipt products I miss that one. Let me place the order while I have the 15%off at Sephora. See told you I love your videos.
Ohhh, yes, if you have a coupon - get it! 💕
@@LValiquette I got it. Thank you so much. 💞💞
I chew a ton of gum too and my face gets dry sometimes but I use natural coconut oil at night time and than wash it off 15minutes later and It sets me up for the next day.
Thank goodness the cold weather is almost over! I need some humid weather for the dry skin!
@@LValiquette Thank God for our 4 months of summer (I wish it was 6 months but oh well) haha
Would you think this would be a good bag to bring on a plane? Not as a carry on, but as a purse...
Hmm, it isn't the most secure tote bag, so things may fall out.
I’m also looking for a new work bag. I’ve been debating between this and the Cabas tote.. but I might go with this as it can probably fit my lunch box and maybe a light sweater for the office!!
This bag is cuttteee!
You have some of the nicest totes. This bag is a cutie. Thank you for sharing 🤗👜🛍️👛
Thank you! I really go for function and this bag is perfect for holding all my stuff!
Loveeeee this tote, I want the same one but with the New York on it 😍🙌🏼
Get it! It’s amazing! Perfect summer tote!
Thanks for the in depth bag review! I love the look of light canvas but I’m still hesitant with stains and marks. 😅 I’d love to see a wear and tear at the end of the season if you have the time. Love your videos❤️
Yes! I’ll do an update for sure. I was worried, but because it is sort of an oatmeal colour, I’ve been more carefree when using it.
Oh, Lauren…now I need this. I love that you are a fellow tote lover! Do you still have the Burberry one? I’m curious to see how it’s wearing. Love your videos and your style! ❤️
I don’t have the Burberry anymore! I loved it, but it was too boxy for me. I need a squishy tote😂
I really like the black canvas w/ white lettering.
obsessed with the tote
It is amazing! I see you with the Balenciaga bags...add this one to your collection!
@@LValiquette girl don't tempt me 😂😂😂
Hi! Do you know where the serial code is located on the bag?
Welcome back how long were you gone do you think because I have not thought of you until I saw this video right here🤗😍 stay safe and have a nice week ♥️☺️

@@LValiquette you're welcome and yes I am thank you 💗
I've been wanting this since you did the unboxing. I can't decide on the size and color. If you do decide on the bigger size..would you get the same one with paris? Tfs!
Same....the small black one is in my cart and just haven't clicked the final button. This video is perfect timing.
@@lesliedavid6379 the lighter one looks so good but i don't trust myself so i have been considering the black one too.

Does it fit a Thinkpad Lenovo?

Does this bag hold its shape when empty?
It does! I usually stuff mine, but even when I don't have much in it, it doesn't flop over.
@@LValiquette that's good! My Longchamp lepliage is the filmsy type so its not good got for laptops ha
I so enjoy your videos!! Thank you
Thank you! I appreciate the support!
Can you please update us on how the bag is wearing? I want to buy it but I wear black all the time and worry about transfer. I love how the cream looks more than the black!
I have zero transfer on the bag! It's held up amazingly well. I was worried about the cream at first...but honestly it's not a problem at all.
@@LValiquette awesome! Thank you!
Hey Lauren! What are your thoughts about the disgusting Balenciaga campaign?
UGH, it's disgusting and I can't believe that they even thought about bringing children into a campaign like that. Shame on them.
