So interesting this video comes out today. I just sold my beautiful evercolor, gold hardware Constance yesterday. I felt it was soo expensive for what it was. Too much money sitting in my closet for a “once in a while use” 🤦🏻♀️. It really hurt to let it go 🥲. She was beautiful 🥹. The only thing that makes me feel better is the 10k sitting in my bank account 😄
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🥳🥳🥳🥳
Where did you sell your bag? I want to sell my herbag.
Thanks for the in depth review, its a beautiful bag ❤
Thank you!
I love the sound and feel of this closure too ❤😂
Yea!!!!!!
It looks so shiny and new without the sticker! Soooooooo satisfying! 🤩🤩🤩
Yea!!!!n it’s sooooo shiny!
Beautiful thanks for sharing. I think you made great points about the bag. I'm actually considering the Coach Bandit. It is a similar yet different style. Bonuses are it is full grain leather, the strap can be removed for storage, and the C is brushed metal so scratches will be hardly noticeable...and it of course is less expensive 😁
I haven’t checked out the coach bandit but I think I saw an IG post of it, it looks very similar and definitely wayyyyyyy cheaper! Better value for sure!
So beautiful! Looks amazing on you❤
Thanks Babe!!!
Thanks for the in depth review. I did not even notice the cons - especially on the strap against the metal and the crease at the back when opening. But I’m still good w the bag. Just love it and love using it as is to make my money worth haha 😅
Agree! Just love using it!
It’s very great informative video, Kat. 😍 love love love your nata constance 🤩 Hope to get a Constance one day too 💝💝
Thank you!
That click sound is definitely a pro 😌🥰 Would love to add a Constance one day, yours is a dream combo - so stunning!
Thank you!
Great video. I don’t own one but you gave me some good tips and ideas. I agree it’s hard to stomach the giant H. Thank you.
Thank you for watching.
I always preferred the Celine because of the quieter lock but now the Celine has a flashier lock itself and I now prefer the Constance! 🤣🤣 Loving this one in white. Beautiful and distinctive.
Thank you Daniel!
Spot on with the Cons Kat
Nice review and love the bag
Thank you 😍😍😍
@@KatL your welcome 😊💜
Lovely review & I agree with all of the cons. My impression of the Constance is the same today as the first time I saw it 20+ years ago: not for me. That H. And the fussy clasp. The bag looks cute on others though. I retired my H belts too, with the exception of the smallest size for dresses.
Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful bag ..congratulations 🎉
Thank you ❤
Very detailed review, Kat! I don't think this is a first Hermes bag either. They have some nice "entry" level bags. I guess the problem right now is inventory. Everything feels like it's quota if you know what I mean.
TRUEEEEEEEEEEE!
a little late but this is soooo helpful in my hunt for a small boxy bag!
Yea!!!
Honest review and good advice...appears that all Hermes quota bags have issue with easy access, the lock design for the flap is totally annoying 😅
Lol, true!
Makes sense, that's exactly the problem I'm having with my Celine Box. Have to push it back every time I close my Box.
Yaaaaa
Nice review, Kat! Nvm lah, use it happily, and when the buckle or strap gets totally worn out, you can get them replaced 😬
True!
Thanks for the detailed review! BTW, I just wonder will the flap shows wear n tear due to frequent opening and closing?
I dunno, will have to monitor to see 🙂🙂
This and the Evelyn are on my wishlist for this year coming up. I’m collecting in reverse. 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Hey Babe, this was such a good pros and cons video! I didn't really pay attn to the wrinkling at the back and immediately paused the video to check mine. Mine has a little but it's not too bad but only when I open it. Maybe because mine is black I don't notice it. Regarding the fuzz on your strap I don't really see any on mine yet, but again maybe cuz it's black. For the unruly hair (the straps that stick out) I sometimes bend them over the bottom of the purse so they don't stick out (wrap them around the bag) but not sure it's a wise thing to do with white straps as they may collect dirt from a table or chair etc. Yeah I do recommend the braid - it does come in handy form time to time although I don't always use it like that. More of a thing to grab when I need to interchange the hands or the position of the bag etc. you should try it with a twilly! Thanks again for the in depth review, it made me double check mine too! Enjoy, it's stunning!
Yea, I am going to try to tied the braid! It will be super handy!
Great review! I have a C18, had it for a year and I love this bag and is in heavy rotation. I agree that I do get concerned about the strap and glazing as it runs through the metal bits. And my strap has become “fuzzy” too. I don’t get the creasing on the flap like you have shown, which I love about this bag. My Chanel bags get that creasing and makes me crazy. Lol. The interior of my bag is dented too, and it’s inevitable. Lol. As for the buckle, it doesn’t bother me too much because my buckle is in an exotic.
The Constance is not a quota in my country, but was my first offer and it was instant love. I am considering getting another on the 2nd hand market because the prices are “reasonable” and for whatever reason, my local boutique do not get many Constance’s.
Love your bag!
Thank you for sharing too! Wow, exotic buckle! That is amazing!
So beautiful!! Constance is a quota bag is SG? 😢 hahaha just curious was your spending 1:1 ? Or like 0.7 to 1 Constance ?
We are so honoured to witness the sticker removal 🙌
Hehehe thank you! It is a moment to remember. 😂
This is the best one of Hermes , I got 24 one, amazing can carry many thing inside 😘😘😍❤
Love the 24!!!
I just checked my strap of my c18s and no fuzz like you are describing. I have had them both for quite a few years now and use them regularly so I can only think that the fuzz dies down over time.
Also don’t worry re scratches, mine are only tiny hairline ones and I use them several times a week and take them absolutely everywhere, including kids playgrounds 😂
What colour will you go for next?
I wanna go for box leather next! But if I can’t get that, GREEN ! 😂
Hi Kat, thanks for your review. Do you have any comments on the maintenance for nata epsom? I had heard that it gets dirty easily and epsom will get peeled over time.
So far, I haven’t had any stain (touch wood) but I will think abt it
@@KatL Good to hear that! Pls consider to do a 6 mth review on epsom and nata next time? 🙏😬😊
Beautiful bag 🥰 I’m looking to get the exact colour with GHW! Can I check if the threads will turn grey/ black from friction with clothes or just pure handling of it
Hi hi, good luck to you getting the bag 🥳❤️❤️❤️! I think the threads will get dark mainly from handling .
@kat L oh my ahahaha that would be devastating 😂 but nata is such a beautiful colour. Has that factor got you to think twice before purchasing?
I agree that it is worth buying! And i agree that it’s bettet to get it from a reseller since the secondary market prices are not too far from the price from the boutique! Getting it from the store regardless of whether it’s a quote or non-quota, it will still eat up the prespend!
With the con about the H buckle being tacky and in your face, very true!! If i end up getting one, i would probably find one with the enamel closure! It’s a bit more discreet! And less prone to scratching!
Love the shine after taking the stickers off!! 😍🥰👏🏼🙌🏼
Yea, the H is really in your face 😅🤣🤣
Hi I just got recommended your Prada re-edition video. Was wondering if luxury bags really are “better” (better quality etc) that they’re worth the money? I’ve been wanting to get some but I feel so guilty about spending that much on handbags. Help.
Does anyone know by chance what the dimensions are for the storage box for the Constance Mini?
Obnoxious cousin LOL! Love it. Thanks for the review ♡
Lol!
Can you please do a one year review? I can’t remember if you sold this bag?
Enjoy ur bag my lady. ❤️🍊😘😘😘Sandy
Thank you!
Actually the price of the Constance in the resale market is ridiculously higher than the store now since Constance is also difficult to buy walk-in and have a waiting list too like the Birkin and Kelly. Resellers are taking advantage of it and make their prices higher because they knew BKC are difficult to buy in-store.
Has the fuzzy thread gotten better with more use? I have a brand new constance and notice it too!! If it gets worse, do you think Hermes will replace the strap?
not really, honestly!
Hi Kat, nice bag!
May I know how much did you spend before you got the quota bag?
My SA told me abt 20k sgd? :)
Omg. No no, that’s too much prespend! I actually didn’t check but I don’t think it is more that a few k
Is there a requirement to have a purchase history for constance?
So much better without the sticker😍
Yaaa😂
🤩🤩🤩
I wanted to buy the Constance until I tried it on. It just has too many cons for the price for me.
Yea, it’s so pricey!
I declined my SA offer for the constance. I think the H is tacky. Im waiting on a mini kelly
kekeke it took me a while to like the H coz like you, i felt it's so in your face! lolxxxxx
Here in Denmark I recently saw a lady of about 80 years old walking in the rain and her red Hermes Constance was getting soaked and she couldn't have given a f**k. It was probably decades old and obviously well used. I was thinking, well at least she's actually used the bag, like for real, instead of keeping it on her shelf. But wow.
Wow. Goals! Lol 😂
Very beautiful sack and. Thnx for helping to make this beautiful video for us KKUWAN
The Constance is a nice bag the H is obnoxious I have the18, black epsom with GHW. While Waiting for my birkin offer, I was offered this instead. I knew it was highly coveted however cross body on me just barely makes it I’m 5 “7 and I think the price I paid for it it’s almost the cost of a Birkin/ Kelly 25 size. Shortly after I was offered a b30 I would have much rather put my money towards a b/k to be honest.
That’s how I feel too. I don’t hate the bag but I cannot justify paying that much for it and would rather get an other birkin. The big H bothers me a lot also.
Totally get it. The H is really in your face 😅
Still trying to convince the SA for a 2nd but clearly not happening! Boo!
Lol!
The pricing on the preloved market is going up😢
Yea, in tandem with the retail
Seriously 12k+ USD. That is way overpriced for the damn large H logo.
🤣it is omggg
First
