Today I'm sharing my buyer's remorse with you! I exchanged my Christmas gift for a new bag. See why I made the change and how I'm feeling about the replacement! I'll also share with you what fits in my new tote bag, packed for a work and for an overnight trip! I hope you enjoy it! Be sure to subscribe to my channel to see more of my videos. Thanks for watching!
I have the canvas in mm size. Lightweight and perfect for work. One of my most used totes like my Neverful but prettier. If I got the GM I would do the black leather as well. Beautiful ❤
I exchanged my on the go Gm reverse monogram as well! In my experience, I was having problems with the interior of the bag buckling. My advisor shared with me that this happens due to the structured canvas separating from the lining. I was told that even with exchanging the bag, it is prone to happen again, simply because of the structure. So today, I decided to return it for the on the go Gm in empriente leather. I feel much better about this, and was told that the “buckling “ won’t happen with the leather. I dreaded returning my reverse monogrammed bag because I LOVED it, but I can’t justify paying so much for a bag that isn’t going to last as long as my other beloved LV pieces. Thanks for your review!! I hope you’re loving your new bag!!
Oh my gosh it's like you're inside my head!! I totally get the juggling of emotions that goes with a purchase like that! Glad you landed on such a beauty that meets your needs, too!
I love living vicariously through you. You and I have the same love for a good handbag 🙂. What’s surprising to me though, is now that I can actually afford a Louis… I don’t want to spend the money 🤔
It's funny how that works, isn't it? I need to tap the breaks on these purchases and enjoy what I have for a while! I appreciate you watching my not so typical content! xoxo
That was the right decision, Lori. I personally don't like the humungous logos on anything be it purses or t-shirts (which look like advertisement imo) etc. that's why I love my Hermes handbags, they go pretty much unnoticed. I also use inserts to keep my bags shaped and clean. I'm sure you'll get a lot of enjoyment from this beautiful bag. Great choice!
Thank you Gloria. That first bag had the biggest logos I had ever seen. It was just a bit too much for me when I thought about it long term. I think I'll enjoy the black leather for a very long time. Thanks for watching!
Love it, black is so beautiful I do love how it's subdued! I received the Pochette Metis in pink for my birthday two years ago and got really nervous about how light it was. I really wanted the black, but it was out of stock for months, so I went with monogram but a part of me wishes I held out for the black leather, it's stunning! I also ooh and ahh over the navy. with red, it's so pretty in person.
I love the pink pochette metis, but I would feel the same way Denise! For the money we spend on these bags, it's painful to think of them being ruined. Color transfer issues scare me so much! The monogram is so practical, I love it on that bag, but I hope you get your black leather some day . Thanks for watching! xo
@@LorisBostonFound Now I have to admit, I'm down an organizer rabbit hole (Delightful MM), definitely buying one. I also watched a video that had the adjustable crossbody strap on the Delightful and I'll add that to my wish list! Oh my goodness...Happy Friday!
You were so smart to exchange it. Years ago I chose a huge, beautiful Fossil bag as a Christmas gift. (Not nearly the price point of a LV, but at $500 it was still the most expensive bag I’ve ever owned). I used it a couple of times, but it was just too big and heavy for me. Now it sits in a bin in my garage.
Lori, good for you if the bag isn't right, take it back. I totally agree, not into the right in your face bags with the logos flashing. Also very surprising that for that price the bag doesn't have feet. I don't like that at all. Thank you for sharing...hope it brings you a lot of happiness and use.
OMG! I had the same thoughts it seemed too "garish" for your style imo. However, I thought you wanted to try something new. I understand your reason for changing.
Hello Lori, Thank You very much for this great Video! I decided to buy this bag! I can buy it at the end of 2025 because I have to save my Money and Iam very happy to decide that I will buy this beautiful bag! ❤
Good call, Lori! I like how you express that us ladies need to truly get what we want and go by our gut!! I'll be using that advice in life. Too many times we sell ourselves short. Good for you, return it a 1000 times if necessary.
Lori, I lovvvve this video. Can watch you all day, you have such a cool vibe about you! I'm definitely getting the OTG GM after watching this, I was unsure about the size but after watching you pack it I'm convinced. You also make me wanna get all the pretty LV goodies that you stored inside! Can you please share what size that LV ring calendar is, is it the medium or large? Also, can you link your key pouch and I also spotted another damier (calendar?) on the very end. Would appreciate if you can link them, thank you!!!
Inserts are mandatory...the interior will be perfect so much longer. I love the black so much more. Subtle, elegant, rare. I am so over the market saturated patterns. They are for the 20 year olds that crave attention and cannot tell subtle differences between the less known patterns and the fakes. Beautiful choice Lori, you will LOVE this forever. It matches your style, thoughtfulness and beauty!
I loved this type of video, and I'm so glad you shared this with us! I think you made the right choice. Your bag is classy and sexy indeed! Really enjoy watching your channel, Lori!
LMAOOOO! The modeling at the end was great! I appreciate the honesty about how awkward you felt cuz thats how I feel when making just regular haul vids! You guys make it seem so normal BUUUUUT, talking to a camera in an empty room is so weird at first!! I have like 20 mins of just junk just to get a "decent" intro hahaahah!
I have the canvas onthego in GM and I never use it because it’s so bloody rigid and by far the heaviest bag I’ve ever had - unbelievable… 🤦🏽♀️not a comfortable or easy bag to carry and I wish I found more honest reviews including this one, before I had gotten it.
Thank you for the video... its so helpful. I'm contemplating on getting the same bag combination, but do you feel that the width is kind of making it bulky? Does the leather version gets softer now after use? I hope it's just a tad less "thick"
I love the black one better my gf has the one you did originally purchase and she thinks it is too in your face as well and wants the black or I believe there is one similar in white or off white
Thank you! I love the other bag too but I was really struggling. It's a good thing I looked up the return window. I'm so much happier with this bag, it's beautiful. Thank you for watching! 😘
Hi! Thank you so much for checking in. We are doing great. We got about a foot of snow, but no power outage for us. Surrounding towns got hit harder than us here in central MA. ❤️
The black leather is way more you imho. But can we talk packing cubes? Aren’t they the best? Feel like my life was a bit of a failure in the years before I discovered them … 😂. ❤️❤️
Way more me Heidi! I'm glad I made the switch in time! Those packing cubes!! Yes, my daughter has always been a huge fan...she introduced them to me recently! I too am a failure! 😂
Hi Moe! The bag was heavy when I packed it for work. The laptop and the agenda definitely added some weight. On it's own, with just a wallet a few things, it's not bad at all! I love it!
Louis Vuitton in black is much classier. No offense, it’s just the typical chocolate and beige is something that is so common and nothing different from the rest. It also doesn’t really separate you from the individuals with these knock offs nowadays that people carry, it’s starting to look like something that everyone can afford but in black with gold, this looks more indiscreet, mysterious, like you have money but you’re not trying to throw it out there.
Lori, Im a fan....but jokingly....you could take a can of 'ScotchGuard for Leather', Spray and Soak up the inside of that Satchel, and it would keep that bag lookn New forever ;) Joke, don't you dare, haha.

i bought an empreinte leather but why do i feel like i should exchange it to the monogram canvass? please help!!! 😢
That black bag!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooo...Absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Great choice💚💚💚
I'm so much happier with the black bag! Thank you for watching! xo
Yes the black one is so beautiful! I love it excellent choice. It will go with everything. The other one was more limited.
Natick Collection is my fave mall. Fellow Boston girl here!
I have the canvas in mm size. Lightweight and perfect for work. One of my most used totes like my Neverful but prettier. If I got the GM I would do the black leather as well. Beautiful ❤

It's such an investment, I get emotional, but feel blessed to be able to get one. Thanks for your message Dawn!
The inside of my bags have always been more important to me than the outside. It keeps all of you're beautiful things. 🙂
Oh my modeling skills are so sad! I had fun laughing during my editing & voiceover! I'm so happy you appreciated it! ❤️😂 Have a wonderful weekend!
You are adorable. I love your channel, personality and your content is fun and informative and real.
Awe, thank you Dawn! I appreciate you following along! ❤️

I can tell you are a lot more excited about this bag than the other canvas bag. Congrats and it looks great on you!
Keegan, I just watched your first video (and I subscribed)! Congratulations on starting your channel! Those Spanx were a great find!!
@@LorisBostonFound thank you so much Lori! Seriously, you are such an inspiration!

Thank you Liz! I think I'll love it for a long time!
Loved this. I need a work bag and so far I just can’t decide but really liked this and hopefully I can get it when I do decide.
Good choice! How is the Empreinte holding up? I also have the GM Noir on my wishlist, but read about sagging. Thx
I’m a black fan! Good choice.
Thank you Shannon! I'm using it so much more than I would have ever used the other one!
That bag is stunning!! Love your videos!
Thank you Kerry! I really love the leather. ❤️❤️
Lori I love the bag and you look so beautiful modeling it.
Love the video, gives me something to look forward when searching for a luxury bag in the future. Also loved the modeling portion of your video.
Oh boy, the modeling portion. 😂 That was so out of my comfort zone. Thank you Jessalee! ❤️I'm so glad you enjoed. I appreciate you watching. xo

List it !!!
@@timberdark It’s a great idea, but I’ve never done it before and I’m scared 😳
“Frye” not “Fossil”. I know it doesn’t matter, but it would bug me 😂
Sell it. Very easy via eBay app as it walks you through the steps.
Thank you, this answered all of my questions! A perfect review
Beautiful bag! My sister has a dog mat that says ‘Chewy Vuitton’, be on the look out for it.🙂
Oh, I love that Virginia! 😂

Thank you and thanks so much for watching!
I use rolled sheets of packing bubbles wrapped and the taped. I use these for all my bags to keep them in perfect condition
Thank you❤❤❤
Just stunning! You wear it well.
Very helpful video. I’ve been debating this bag. I’m so unhappy with my Neverfull, I need a classier option,
Thank you for watching! 💕 I'm so sorry you're unhappy with your Neverfull. It seems like such a practical bag.
That's the one I want too, the black one.
I hope you get it Nzinga! xoxo
OMGosh!! That black/white makeup bag!! I need that link! Lol 12:37
Gorgeous bag!!
Bag looks great!
Thank you Christie! I'm happy I made the switch. xo
That bag is gorgeous!! Glad you’re happy with it 😊
Gorgeous bag, gorgeous you! I loved the try on, although I laughed along side you, you did a fab job.
You were rocking Look 2 😄! But, seriously, gorgeous elegant bag!
Love it! Understated and beautiful bag!
Thank you Kasey! ❤️
Very pretty bag. I also love your blouse. Very figure flattering on you and I love the little ruffle on the shoulder.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Gorgeous bag!! 😊
Thank you Michelle, I love it! 😊
Beautiful bag! Enjoy it, Lori!! 🖤
Thank you Maryellen!
omg, I've never even THOUGHT of a bag liner!!! 🤯
Granted, Ive never had a purse worth the need buuut ...

Oh thank you Karen! Yes, the inserts are a MUST. The black is so much more my vibe.I am so happy I made the exchange... what a difference!
I did the opposite, ordered the black GM & returned it for the canvas. I now wish I had the black GM & canvas PM! 🤦♀️
I loved this type of video, and I'm so glad you shared this with us! I think you made the right choice. Your bag is classy and sexy indeed! Really enjoy watching your channel, Lori!
PS I loved your modeling you are gorgeous and you should do more!
Thank you Krista. I was belly laughing while I was editing and doing the voiceover! It was fun to push myself a little bit! 💕

While I LOVE the other bag...I totally get it. Great choice, beautiful. 😍
Thank you! I love the other bag too but I was really struggling. It's a good thing I looked up the return window. I'm so much happier with this bag, it's beautiful. Thank you for watching! 😘
Oh yes liner. Where did you find this? I wondered why people use them.
Great video- loved your modeling😊
It was painful to watch my modeling when I edited, but I'm happy I went for it! 😂 Thanks for watching! xo
First time LV buyer. Would you purchase the dove and white or all black? Thanks!
Lori-I hope you are ok and that you still have power?! Just thinking of you and wondering how Boston’s big snowfall has impacted you negatively??!
Hi! Thank you so much for checking in. We are doing great. We got about a foot of snow, but no power outage for us. Surrounding towns got hit harder than us here in central MA. ❤️
@@LorisBostonFound I am glad to hear that you’re ok. Boston seems to be in the focus of the storm coverage!
I want the on the go tote but I was concern about the bag shouting LV. I like the black leather, it’s gorgeous. Great review ❤️
WOW, what a gorgeous bag, LOVE it!!! ♥♥♥ Shout out to your epic modeling skills - I'm sure all of us non-models would do the same! ~Marilyn
The black leather is way more you imho. But can we talk packing cubes? Aren’t they the best? Feel like my life was a bit of a failure in the years before I discovered them … 😂. ❤️❤️

Good decision
Thank you Ann! Glad I made switch! Thanks for watching. 💕
Love the black tote!!!! They make a lot of fakes of the other tote.
Is it crazy heavy with your MacBook in there?? I want this bag for work so bad!!
Definitely much better looking purse !! Love it. So sexy and slick
❤️❤️❤️
😘😘
Is it heavy
Hi Moe! The bag was heavy when I packed it for work. The laptop and the agenda definitely added some weight. On it's own, with just a wallet a few things, it's not bad at all! I love it!
Your soooo cute. I love your videos.

Thank you Regina. I'm so much happier with this bag.
