UPDATE❗️WOW… I didn’t expect to receive soOoOoo many messages about these Polene beauties! I’ve already responded directly to the 2 people who reached out first - one for the nano and one for the mini! I was initially planning to keep one for myself 😅 but I’ve decided to let them both go, because I’d rather they be used and enjoyed properly! Being able to re-gift these two bags makes me happy. 💕 Thank you to all who messaged me. Please please understand if I don’t respond back - there are so many emails and DMs, it would take a looong time for me to respond individually to everyone. Thank you again! 💗 P.S. Even if you couldn’t claim one of these bags from me, I do hope you found the video to be helpful in your research! Polene makes beautiful, handcrafted bags but not every design and color is for everyone. 😉
@@annydu5361 I don’t know how large you need your work bag to be but I love the Numero Sept! You may want to check it out. The opening/closure is easier than the Un bags!
What a lovely and meaningful gesture to give away these bags instead of keeping or selling them, both are fine, but giving them away to a better home is just that extra special and shows how beautiful a person you are! Have both these bags and love them (for the mini, I knotted the metal chain on the inside to convert it to a draped top handle like Chanel 19 9 and attached an adjustable leather strap to wear as a crossbody - works a gem!) XO
It’s so funny that you compared the nano to the Chanel mini- I wanted a mini but with the price increases and quality issues I sort of gave up on the dream. Then I saw the Polene numero un nano and fell in love. I also love the minimalism of the brand yet how artistic the designs are. I now have two, one in black and one in camel and am in love. I highly recommend the black one- it looks great with everything! I’ve received so many compliments from strangers and was even stopped on the street by someone wanting to know what brand the bag was. I still love the timeless look of Chanel, but my Polene will just have to do!
I just absolutely enjoy your review videos and how fair you are with everything you say or use! I want a Polene bag now because of you and I know neither of these is for me. Thank you!!!
So wonderful that you are looking to part with these two to the subbies! I think the black would absolutely be one you would reach for and maybe enjoy more. I understand the intention to try something new, but sometimes the classic/neutral colors are what make us more comfortable and maximize enjoyment. I’m rooting that you get a black one! 😀
oh my gosh! so excited for the Polene NYC store opening!! please keep us in the loop to anticipated opening date when you know more! Hopefully, prices stay relatively the same 🙏
listening to you is so soothing. thank you for the in depth comparison on Polene, would love some more, especially on the colors, like Wisteria and peach and blush and lilac, nude, whats the difference.
They’re both so cute!! Been wanting to get one for so long because of your videos but haven’t had extra $$$ to spend 🤣 so generous of u to give one away. I messaged you💜
I have the nano in the exact same color! I got it early this year and really enjoy using it this spring and summer. I think the name of the color "Lilac" is absolutely misleading and leads to wrong expectations. But it fits really well into a wardrobe with lots of neutrals and pinks.
Ughh I’m so conflicted. I ordered the tricolor nano size, but the clasp was sewn on crooked. When I contacted customer service, they said it wasn’t a defect, so I just ended up returning it. It was a pretty disappointing experience as I’ve been looking at that bag for over a year. I’ll be taking a break from the brand, but glad it works for some people and I still think the shape is adorable.
Hi there. I really appreciated this video as I've been looking for the mini numero um for a couple of years now. Thanks for comparing w/ the toy loulou. I'm definitely going for the mini in tan color. It's a shame I lost the giveaway but I must say it's very kind of you to give those beauties to your subbies =)
I find the magnetic closure gets easier after many uses. I initially have problem like you said, but now it’s bearable. And I don’t snaps the button when I’m using the bag as I don’t find it easier to take out things from the bags. Also, I find this bag is heavier than Celine pico though they fit the same amount.
Totally needed this video. Thanks for the detailed comparison as usual! You are so generous for passing these bags along. Just wondering if there's any way you'd be able to get a promo code for us to use? Would love to make another purchase and a discount would be great, If possible.
I have the Numero Un Nano in Cognac. I love it but it isn’t an everyday carry for me. It’s a little too small. During the week I need to carry two large cell phones plus my daily essentials. I found that the strap is too short (I’m plus sized) so I took it off. You have to angle the pegs in the strap to get it off. I’m using a strap that I got off of Amazon. I also added D rings to the included strap as well as strap extenders to the original strap in case I want to use it.
Very clever!! I’m glad you figured out a way to make the bag work for you! Thanks for sharing - I’m sure it’ll be helpful to some reading comments here.
I have the backpack version and wish it came with a top handle. That said, the style is still cute, just a little small in terms of what it can fit. Glad I got it before it was discontinued. 🙂
Hi, loved the video. Changing subjects, can you give us your opinion about the Marc jacobs tote? Or maybe a review. I know it’s not luxury, but I heard so much about it and I really trust your opinion. Thanks.
Hi, did u experience color transfer on the Mini chalk? I’ve watched two reviews with yhe problem, one with the suede style and the other full leather :(
Hi i have been planning to get the nano, i have a few questions. 1. Can it fit an Iphone 14 promax? 3. Is it lightweight, or is it already heavy when its empty? 4. how is the wear and tear of this bag? I hope you see this comment, hoping for a reply. Thank you 🥺
I purchased the Un Mini in Paris and wish I had waited for your review, the chain is not comfy, gets wrapped in my hair and closing it is fussy, so I will have to pass it on to someone☹️
Hmmm.... Is it a coincidence that you "selected" the same two colors from Polene that every other RUclipsr is reviewing (chalk and lilac)? 😂 Great channel - but would be nice if you were more upfront about the sponsored products.
Hi. I actually mention at least twice in the video that these bags were gifted to me and that’s why I am re-gifting them to my subscribers. I wasn’t sponsored by Polene (meaning, I wasn’t paid anything to make this video) and I did indeed choose these colors on my own. I don’t know what other RUclipsrs are doing but I’m always transparent and upfront when anything is sponsored (which again, this was not) or when items are gifted by a brand (which these were). I think you may have just missed the times I mentioned this in the video because I was quite explicit.

Thanks for the video Hannah! I was eyeing the top handle one but in a large size for a worl bagi but the opeing and closing issue would annoy me too!!

@@yulianagonzalez2428 Ohh!! You’re always one of the early birds!! Hope you’re able to wind down after a long day of work!
@@hellocatwalkcity i dont actually like the look of numero sept! Its too square looking for me lol 😆 thanks anyways ❤️

I agree with how you describe Polene’s aesthetic! Minimalist and artistic! 👍
Try checking out Aspinal of London Lottie in Quilted Caviar.. It has Chanel vibes. ☺️
I’ve been looking into this brand for several years. I love the mini and I think I’ll order one for my birthday this month! Thanks for the reviews!🥳
That’ll be a fun birthday gift to yourself! Which color are you eyeing?
@@hellocatwalkcity the “taupe” I think would be a nice neutral I don’t have in my handbag collection.

Very nice comparison - my sister has the top handle version in black. It is just gorgeous. How generous of you to give away😊
The black one with suede is sooo gorgeous! 🖤
You are so kind and generous to give the bags a new home ☺️

I have Un regular side in black, love it. And 2 minis in blush pink( no longer avail) and navy blue, all gorgeous.
The lilac color is so pretty and feminine! 😍

Yes, I prefer the nano also! 😉

@@hellocatwalkcity Sorry! I have Nano :)
I’m thinking of buy this bag but I don’t know how the leather and size. Would be happy to have it.

Im interested on the lilac… very good review
I have the backpack version and wish it came with a top handle. That said, the style is still cute, just a little small in terms of what it can fit. Glad I got it before it was discontinued. 🙂
Oh that’s good feedback! The backpack with top handle with leather straps … that would be the perfect combo! 👌
Hi, loved the video. Changing subjects, can you give us your opinion about the Marc jacobs tote? Or maybe a review. I know it’s not luxury, but I heard so much about it and I really trust your opinion. Thanks.
As for weight and dimensions why people cannot read this info on the company website?
Hi, did u experience color transfer on the Mini chalk? I’ve watched two reviews with yhe problem, one with the suede style and the other full leather :(
I have the Un Micro and I absolutely love them. ❤
The micro is so cute!
I didn’t get to watch this in time to enter the giveaway 😆 but curious: would you consider getting the black number un Nano? Love it!
Yes!! If I could choose all over again, I’d go for the black nano but the one with the suede combo as I mentioned. 😉
Yes you are right the closure looks tricky
Hi i have been planning to get the nano, i have a few questions.
1. Can it fit an Iphone 14 promax?
3. Is it lightweight, or is it already heavy when its empty?
4. how is the wear and tear of this bag?
I hope you see this comment, hoping for a reply. Thank you 🥺
Helpful review! Thank you!!
I purchased the Un Mini in Paris and wish I had waited for your review, the chain is not comfy, gets wrapped in my hair and closing it is fussy, so I will have to pass it on to someone☹️
Oh no… 🙈 hopefully someone else will love it.
I need to try this brand . Thx for sharing sweetie
Thank you 😊 I love your videos 📹 ❤️
have you given 1 or both bags away!? if not, I'd love one!!
Both were given away to two of my subscribers!
Hi
Just wondering if you can review the Number 6 bag
There is not much information about this bag
Thank You
I would love to but I don’t own that bag! Perhaps in the future! 😊
Still like the white one!! Very good comparison vid.
I bought polene the left pink one
Whoa! You're very generous.
It’s my pleasure!
Love the comparison video! Thanks a lot.
I really like the Polenes, just not for me 😎
Absolutely! It’s good when we know which bags are for us and which are for admiring from afar! 😉
I like the size of mini but I agree with you the bag is too heavy
Cute but not my style. It looks like a mini backpack but a crossbody 😩
OMG I can't unsee this now 😭
where to purchace the Polene backpack
I believe the backpack style has been discontinued
can any of it fit ipad mini?
I don’t think so

Great review. I’ve been thinking about this brand. This video was helpful. TFS💕🤍
Glad it was helpful!
