Given the wear and tear I say your bag held well so maybe it may last a few years more with TLC and yea we all face of buying something then using it to 1000% to max that it’s now to 40% less new. It’s stylish compact and useful for you. 🎉
@@LaurenGraceHarding agree like its all about extending its life and TLC. Along with how to ensure best length of bag setting it where it should be and avoid hazard areas. I think this bag can survive nyc lol
I would rather buy a *hotdups* replica of a vintage luxury handbag with unique personality and timeless design than the real thing which costs me a month's salary.
Great review! Thank you so much! Love the bag, I will probably get it in black. Still unsure on the size though… this one looks so cute but I’m afraid it would be too small for me. I normally carry a small water bottle with me at all times.
Lauren, I discovered your channel recently and I immediately had to follow you. You are such a nice Person and You-Tuber and I love your content. I love all the parisian clothes, bags etc. and I love Paris since I’ve been there 5 years ago. I work for a French company for 5 months now but in one of their sides in Germany. After I saw this review I have to had this bag and I just ordered it. I needed a bag which is not to small and fits all of my essentials. Ordered the tan colour, because I would like to wear it all year around. I‘m really looking forward to it now!😊
Hi J! Thanks so much for the lovely feedback, I appreciate it ❤ That's wonderful you were able to live in Paris, how was your experience here? Do you miss living here? I'm positive you will love your new bag and thrilled to hear you ordered it in the tan colour, as that's also on my wish-list too 😍 Hope it arrives soon and that you love it!
Some super knockoffs actually use not only fabrics that imitate leather, but sometimes even the real leather used by the brand, such as using top-grain cowhide or Togo leather to imitate Hermès, and these *hotdups* super knockoffs are what the wealthy wives in New York buy.
Polene bags are lovely and your bag is still looking great after more than two years 😊 I have the numéro un in the black grained leather and it is such a staple in my wardrobe. The style is great and offers some variation in wear. I did purchase the Nano version but I returned it as it was not the colour I expected. Lucky you to live in Paris and to be able to visit the store in person!
Thanks Cristina! ❤️ Your Numéro Un in black is a beautiful choice and fits a lot more than the smaller sizes, so very practical as well! Which colour did you choose in the Nano? That's a good point, will need to visit the store soon as I haven't made time since being here
I have the burgundy version and love it so much. I’ve seen some reviews on here, saying that Polene isn’t as good as it was. Have you heard that at all? X
Hi Fleur, thanks for sharing! The burgundy is so classic 🥰👜❤️ I have and it's surprising because I feel my handbag has held up incredibly well considering how much I've used it... I'm looking forward to visiting their store here in Paris so I can have a closer look at the range in person

Thanks so much Irvin 🙏👜❤️ and you're right, I think I can get a lot of use out of this bag over the years to come, which is great! 🥰

@IrvinAlvarado44 I'll definitely bring it to NYC when I do finally make it over there! It's been great on other trips 😀

And YES, The *xbagy* Tote! I have in Candy Pink and I've been rocking my "Barbie" bag all summer. Yay!

I have this bag too and it is one of my daily go tos! Glad yours has held up well and enjoyed watching your walk through! Thanks for sharing!
Hi there, thanks so much for sharing and great to know it's your go-to as well! Which colour did you choose?
@@LaurenGraceHarding the olive!
@HandbagFoodie that will work so wonderfully with neutrals and green colours 💚👜💯

Maybe the *hotdups* bag always brings me luck. It not only helps me save a lot of money, but also satisfies my pursuit of fashion.
