Hi Lisa, your comparison of the Chanel Flap and BGA card holders was exceptionally insightful! As someone who appreciates the finer details in luxury goods, I really valued your thorough breakdown of the features and differences between these two exquisite pieces. It's intriguing how each brand infuses its unique essence into seemingly simple items like card holders. I agree that the choice often boils down to personal preference and lifestyle needs. Your video perfectly illustrates how luxury is not just about the brand name, but about the quality, functionality, and personal joy these items bring into our lives. Looking forward to more such detailed and informative content on your channel!
Hey there, Lisa. I hope you’re feeling much better. Both cardholders are pretty but if cost wasn’t a consideration, I would choose Chanel. What can I say, I love a label, lol. Thanks so much for sharing!
It is an amazing color. And obviously I love the Chanel ones. But if someone wants beautiful colors but doesn’t want to spend close to $700 with tax, the bottega is a great option.
Hey Lisa, looks like you feel much better. Looking good! Not related to your last video… I'm in New York for a few days. Went to Rothy's today, (thanks for your recommendation) and I bought an amazing pair of shoes from them. I love your channel. xx
I just got back from a girls’ weekend in Vegas with my daughter. We came back with matching card holders, and you influenced me to buy them. Thank you! 😃
@@luxuryandlifeinthemiddleIt’s a very light bluish/grey. I was going to get black, but my daughter talked me into getting a cute color. You know, this is me living on the edge. 😂
I was just gifted so black card holder 24 s was 700 and light purple was 625. So you right. Far cry from the 450 for my original. Black caviar with silver hardware. These are so my favorite
I am intrigued by Bottega as a brand and that lime green cardholder is gorgeous but the fuchsia Chanel Lisa!! 😩 It’s just so feminine and curvy! Such a beautiful cardholder with that gleaming CC staring right at me! I’m the type of shopper who always seems to purchase an item right BEFORE it goes on sale (bad timing always) so for me to want to spend $100 more for a cardholder is really no surprise! 💁🏼♀️
Bottega has incredible leather. I really didn’t get the hype until I went into boutique to try on the Jodie bag. Then I got it. The cardholder was a way to dip my toe into the brand.
Highland Park Village (HPV) located in the town of Highland Park, Texas, adjacent to the Uptown neighborhood of Dallas. The Chanel boutique is undergoing a major expansion/rennovation.
Thank you! I can never remember as there are several cities with “highland” areas. I’ll probably visit our Dallas office later in the year. Hopefully the renovation will be done.
The Bottega is intriguing. I do love my Chanel flap card holder, but the caviar on mine feels a bit plasticy which is a bummer. I know you aren't a fan but my favorite is the Chanel zip coin/card holder.
Caviar definitely varies from season to season. I really tried to like the zip coin holder. I love the idea of the zip. I just couldn’t get my cards to work in it. Probably better as it might save me money over time with one less thing to buy 😂
Sometimes I will fold up bills and put them in the larger interior section. If so, then I tend to remove some of the cards from that section (which are primarily insurance, work Amex, etc).
LOVED all of your SLGs especially the baby blue Chanel...seriously to die for! thank you for such a thorough review!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Please no brainer ! The pink is everything !
Idk. The green is fantastic. But I agree that the pink is TDF!
Love the Chanel. The pinks are gorgeous 💗
Their colors are beautiful but Bottega has some gorgeous colors too. Lambskin takes color so well.
I just love those Chanel card holders so much... For me they remain the best! I hope you're feeling better, Lisa! Have a great week x
Kat, I obviously love them too. But I have to say, the bottega is very user friendly and I adore the color.
@@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle Absolutely, Bottega's quality is amazing, and that is definitely a great SLG.
Thank you for your thoughts. I love the Chanel lipstick red!
It’s the perfect shade of red!❤️

I’m felling better, Patty. Still a little sniffly but nothing bad. I love a logo, too, and the Chanel ones are like a tiny little classic flap. 💜
Chanel has the best cardholders. That link is glorious
Pink haha
It is an amazing color. And obviously I love the Chanel ones. But if someone wants beautiful colors but doesn’t want to spend close to $700 with tax, the bottega is a great option.
I have the BV in bright blue, it carries so much. It's crazy! 😲 I can't get enough of that fuchsia 😍💖
I bet that’s a beautiful color! Bottega’s leather takes color so well. And yes, the fuchsia is gorg!
Great comparison Lisa. I would love to add a Chanel card holder to my collection one day.
Highly recommend Melissa!

Thanks Irina. I hope you’re having an amazing trip. At least the weather is a little better this week. Enjoy your new shoes!

How fun!! Which one did you get?
We chose the Chanel and love them. 💙
@bobolikitten that’s awesome! What color did you get?

@bobolikitten everyone has to start somewhere 😂

Congratulations on the so black cardholder Kate! I’ve seen it in boutique and it’s lovely!💜
Aww thanks friend. I love it.
the RED is my fav❤❤😍
It’s such a beautiful red!❤️

I keep meaning to add one of these but I think the indecision is holding me back - which to choose! I’m just a sucker for pretty colours!
Oh Heidi, me, too!💜💙💚❤️
I love that green the bottega. Just for that, i would get that
It’s such a good green. 💚

Didn’t BV d/c parakeet? I love that green!
I heard that but I bought the cardholder after I heard it so maybe not. They really shouldn’t. It’s a gorgeous color!💚
I like your use of Yiddish words! What do you plan to use to clean the Schmutz off the blue card holder?
I have some Cadillac leather cleaner I’ll try. Very gentle.

🥰
Do you carry cash in there?
Sometimes I will fold up bills and put them in the larger interior section. If so, then I tend to remove some of the cards from that section (which are primarily insurance, work Amex, etc).
IMHO Bottega won
I can see why, Irina!
Pink is so you…the green is nice though. 🩷
Honestly love them both!
