Is there a perception that non heritage luxury bags are inferior to the heritage brands? I am finding more and more that the quality of the leather from brands like Strathberry, Aspinal, Demillier and Polene are outshining the luxury brands. I love well made bags and I love getting my money's worth which does not happen to be case with brands like Chanel of late.
Hi, Ive been looking at Demellier bags but since there’s no retailer where I live, I was wondering if the quality is good, have you seen or do you own one?
@@ladyinpink2654 I have two Demellier bags - both shoulder bags - and I think the quality is lovely (not Lady Dior lovely but very lovely all the same!)
The only thing about big leather bags is how heavy they can get. So I rather have a small handbag and a carry another document bag separately. But laptops aside, I love large totes on flights! Thanks for the ideas ❤️
Great video, regarding your Chanel tote my GST and Supermodel totes were both slouching like that I biught inserts for them both and just leave them in them all the time and the leather actually stopped getting worse and actually corrected itself quite a bit.
I’ve been on-and-off thinking about adding a Lily & Bean tote for a while because you do see so many luxury influencers wearing them (well…for their sponsored posts). Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the quality and how it’s been holding up. The Diorever is so classy! Love the colour you got yours in. Absolutely agree with the points you made on the B35.
Thanks so much for filming this. I love large bags. As much as I like the idea of small bags, other than for a one off night out, they just don’t work for me. I have family members who are forever handing me things to put in my bag and that’s my life. I don’t have a butler either. Your Large Lady Dior is so stunning. I would love one of those some day. I do have the Diorever and the Prada Saffiano Lux which are brilliant work bags. I must have struck it lucky with my Prada. It’s now 10 years old and still looks brand new, and I have used it a lot and it came in a truly luxurious box. The Strathberry tote is beautiful too. I have one of those on my wish list but at the moment I can’t decide which colour or whether to get another large structured tote or the midi, which is still a really good size.
Your magic always makes me want a large Lady Dior 🙈Especially the pretty blue color they have now, even though I know I would rarely use it. Could I still justify it, yes absolutely 😊
Yes I love the Prada totes. I think silver hardware wears better on them too. I have the prada Saffiano leather mens tote with silver hardware and its holding up amazing well after 3 years. The Dior forever I wanna add to my list to get esp for the price these days for it.
I've been going back and forth about a large bag recently so thanks for this! I've been looking into a large zipped bayswater. Annoyingly they're discontinued but there are a few about. I think this would be a great large bag and very much Birkin like for those who can't afford the bag and butler lol. But, personally, I don't know if I'd ever feel comfortable bringing out a Birkin, but I like the very similar look as this bag. Got a mini one already so I'm VERY tempted with this.
I remember going with a friend to buy her large zipped bayswater and I was so jealous. It's a very similar style but a little more understated- but mulberry's leather is divine! Hope you find one
I love a big bag! I have the same neverfull as your gm but in mm. I kind of wish I would have done the gm for even bigger. I held off buying it for years because I find the popularity obnoxious but finally I said, who cares? If I like it, so what? 😀
I'm wondering whether it's about where I live (Denmark) or whether it's to do with IG/ YT and perception, but I don't see a lot of Hermes IRL! On the other hand it's everywhere on social media, and that perception that it's everywhere will be sure to put me off! I do like Demellier and some Polene. I don't have many higher end bags, apart from a Loewe Puzzle (my dream bag) and a Mulberry Antony, plus an APC, a Marc Jacobs and a Jerome Dreyfuss. If I was going down the Chanel route it'd be the 2.55 reissue (the lack of logo appeals, but I don't think it's right for my lifestyle). As for Hermes it'd be an Evelyn (Antony vibes) or the Jypsiere.
I actually now like the background better that way... haha. Would you consider a stand for one bag? Like the bag of theday or sum? That way you can show your collection but also not lose the metallic background
I almost bought the Lily and Bean tote coz it’s cute. But looking at the pictures and saw the edgings are made poorly, there’s no way I’m buying it for more than 100 GBP. And yeah the Chanel leather totes, the sides are sagging😟like mine.
I sold my Speedy 35 because I wanted a large crossbody handbag that I would consider to be more of a subtle luxury vibe and that I could wear in our forever rainy English weather. The Alexa has always been my all time favourite handbag from Mulberry. I have the regular Alexa in slate blue with silver hardware and replaced the Speedy 35 with an oversized Alexa in Oak from the first release. I still wear them both. Then I saw the new version in Mulberry ad with the model wearing a Mac with oversized Alexa in deep Amber prancing around and I needed that oversized Alexa. Now I have two oversized Alexa’s, and zero regrets 🤷🏽♀️ FYI: I sold my Bayswater....go for the oversized Alexa, you won’t regret it.
Awe it makes me sad that you aren't using your Chanel tote anymore...that one of my favorite what's in my bag videos EVER! I've watched it multiple times 🙃.
Not surprised.... they are a similar style to the Chanel- but that's it. The quality is not even average high street. It wouldn't be an issue but people buy them online so can't know this before they've personalised and bought.
@@ms.coltoff-fraser-harrigan8328 I don’t know who that’s talking to - but for me- making money and being nouveau riche are two very different things…. and being born into money doesn’t stop some people being that way.
@@Emmaanders I was replying to CLR above you. I adore you. Your sense of humor is terrific (it is very reminiscent of mine)! You are very grounded and not the least bit pretentious. Don't even know why I responded to CLR, but "they make idiots of themselves" just annoyed me. Be well.

I have the same Chanel bag - putting in an insert makes quite a difference to give it some support.

The Strathberry tote is stunning! The design is so simplistic yet such a eye catching piece.

“Never riche” - Emma you are hilarious! Love the large Lady Dior. Wish I’d bought it back when it was cheaper!
I am Saving right now for a Chanel tote.
I think I want to be able to fly with it which means it has to be secure though

Really LOVED this one! Thanks so much for your review....so well done!

@@Emmaanders thanks! Definitely going to be a mission. Fingers crossed I don't add another in a smaller size to my collection before then 😂
I just bought a large Alexa, and I love it ! Holds so much !
Nice to see that large bag trend is bag. Nice bag collection
Thank you
I love big designer bags too great video

Do you not stuff your bags ? The Strathberry looks like a great option
🙋 Well done 👍

The oversized Alexa is absolutely on my list!
Emma, what do you think about the ysl sac de jour? I hesitate bc I see so many of them pretty much unused on the preloved market....
Awe it makes me sad that you aren't using your Chanel tote anymore...that one of my favorite what's in my bag videos EVER! I've watched it multiple times 🙃.
Emma what do you think of the new LV Carryall?
I really like it. I love the hobo-esqe styles from LV. They do them well and they're so wearable
@@Emmaanders I hope it comes out in damier ebene!
I`m just curious- are you still allowed to write prescriptions for people- or do you have to be employed by a health institution to be able to do so?
No. I’m not. You have to be on the medical register
nice bag❤❤
😂😂😂 I Love you.. you put a person in your Neverfull 😂😂 You got your money’s worth 😂
Does anyone have any ideas for luxury briefcases? Frustratingly I see amongst high end brands briefcases seem to be designed for men only 🤔
This #rrcopy tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big. I look forward to joining my rotation
Chanel leather Tote- overpacked stretches the leather and hence, it becomes lumpy from abused 😢😢😢
The lily bean bags is such a rip off because they can be bought from Ali express for less than £20 minus the personalization.
Not surprised.... they are a similar style to the Chanel- but that's it. The quality is not even average high street. It wouldn't be an issue but people buy them online so can't know this before they've personalised and bought.
Prada are not consistent when it comes to giving out boxes
❤❤❤
So sad about your Prada. Mine is still holding its shape and looks great. Maybe you just got a lemon.
New money is a real thing and usually I cringe for them. They make idiots of themselves
I find it gauche- but then at the same time when people are quite open and up front and own it- I find it all in good humour.
That's not so nice. You're criticizing a rather large group of people who work hard and weren't fortunate enough to be born into money.
