I freaking LOVE the Alma BB. One of my faves of all time! Fun fact, I found your channel because I was looking for Alma BB reviews. :) Thanks for sharing!
I just bought this bag, which is my first luxury bag, I recently went on a womans retreat and I love it. It can dress up or down, with a nice dress or some jeans. I’m happy I chose this bag.
I bought my Alma BB after watching one of your reviews but I've only used that bag maybe four times since I've had it but I love the Mark Jacobs tote review you did and I will use that bag a lot more than my alma
I always watch reviews when I’m considering a new bag. I can’t emphasize this enough when I say, this was a fantastic review, it actually not only helped me make my decision, I made my decision while watching your video. For me it’s not going to work, but it is a gorgeous little bag. Thank you so much! I also own two versions of the Pochette Metis and the Odeon PM because of your videos. I’m sure there are others out there who do good reviews, but I watch a lot and I’ve never seen any that are as good as yours. Thank you again!
The alma bb is a great bag. I had it in ebene and loved it but found it hard to style for dressy events as I enjoy wearing patterns. I decided to get the black epi version instead and havnt looked back but the wear and tear is excellent whatever version you go for x
I bought my Alma BB last winter and it unfortunately hit my least used handbag list for 2022. I said in my upcoming video that I’m not sure why. I love the bag. Just need to reach for it more! Great review!!
Great bag...but your COLLIER!! 🤩 Can't take my eyes off of it! 😅 So pretty! Thank you! Your review comes at the right time when the Alma BB is on my radar again!
I was pleasantly surprised how nicely the opening relaxed with use. This made it easier to get in and out of the bag and in turn I ended up using it more.
Great video! I don’t recall if you’ve done this before, but I’d be interested in a video about newer bags in your collection that replaced and/or serve the same purpose as an older bag you own. For example, if you now reach for the Odeon over the Alma when you want a casual crossbody. Thanks!
I use the khaki MPA strap with my Alma bb. That way I can adjust strap and wear as short cross body or shoulder bag. I love my Alma bb! Most used bag of 2022. Second place was my Saint Laurent camera bag 😊
This is a great review. I went to LV store to try this bag because I was ready to buy the bag. I got really sad when I tried it on and that strap setting on the bag makes it so narrow near bag opening like it was such a big con that I had to say NO to this bag within 30 seconds. Im not sure how everyone who raves about it as a crossbody deals with it. Especially when you are wearing it and want to go in and out its not very ideal. But Im happy for folks for whom this bag work cause its a beautiful bag. So sad for myself 😢
She’s adorable but I think I can finally walk away from it cuz you really hit the nail on the head when you spoke on how it fits on your body. I picked the Odeon PM over the Alma bb based on how it hung on my body. I’m also 5’3 and curvy - it just looked awkward on me. As much as I love the small and structured Alma, it just accentuated areas of my body that I’m currently working on and it’s my personal opinion. Nevertheless, I still admire her from afar. Thank you for this 3 yr later review. I can confidently walk away and focus on getting a speedy25 bandolier instead! 😊😅
My alma bb is such a chic bag. It's a date night bag for me. I prefer to wear it with only the handles, so much so that I didn't even realize the straps aren't adjustable! hahaha
Thank you, Amber! Will watch it later. The Alma is on my wishlist, but I don‘t know if I would wear it often. But I think on the value side, it is a bag that is very stable. Greetings from Germany! ❤
I love Alma BB❤.. own two but none of them are in canvas.. Amber, if you could, I really love if you can do the review & comparison between the speedy b20 and odeon pm.. i really love these two bags but my budget only allow me one😂😅 most importantly how it feels when using it crossbody.. thank you Amber..have a great week💕💕
I regret not buying it sooner in damier ebene, just made the purchase and it hurt! I bought my Alma bb in monogram in 2018 in Europe and only paid 975! Ugh but this was the last piece I wanted so bad! I was going to buy it preloved but went back and forth and I know older versions had a more shiny leather but I think the matte is so sleek!
Thank you so much much for sharing! Actually, I'm a bit late but nevertheless thinking about the Alma BB - as a classic time doesn't matter :) On the LV website, they describe the bag with adjustable strap right now (European website): Do you have any news about Alma with adjustable strap so far?
Amber have you heard of Havre De Luxe fabric & leather care products? They have a Leather Restoring Pen that looks like it might help fix the mark on the bottom of your Alma BB - it actually comes in DE Brown as one of the selections!!!
Your reviews are really helpful. I love the shape and that it can be carried top handle and cross body, but I chose the Odeon PM instead because the Alma BB looked so tiny in person. I’ll never say never so maybe in the future if I need a small top handle.
Ive both Alma BB and speedyB 25 and must say they are both very different. SpeedyB25 can definitely fit more even a 500ml water bottle and is perfect for travelling. The only downside with Alma Bb is the strap is non adjustable and im only 5ft
I'm torn between the Alma and the Odeon. It's such a tough decision! The Alma is stunning but I think the shape of the Odeon might fit me better crossbody.
I’ve been thinking about this bag for so long but never purchased it. Do you think the strap for the Speedy B might work better since it is adjustable?
I had this bag 3 times, love the look but for me it's just not functional. Crossbody it doesn't work even with another strap, hand held it's cute but I have children so not ideal and lastly you have to be very mindful how you put your stuff in it or it will look wonky. Sad, still love the look
My dream bag was the DE Alma BB and I still love it 💕 I’m shorter than you so I don’t use the strap whatsoever but I’ve purchased alternative straps which is fine! Although, I prefer it as a shoulder bag or top handle. Interesting I use my bag more for work or special occasions! Maybe because it’s one of my two luxury bags haha What are your thoughts on the empriente Alma BB? 🖤
Bought it twice and sold it twice. I’m tall and athletic and it sat weirdly on me crossbody, always moving and sliding and hitting every single wall and person.
All I know is…LV gets addictive! Starts with one bag then the collection keeps growing!

@@AmberAshleigh35 You’re very welcome! You also introduced Zoomoni to me and I have used your promo code as well. Have a great day!

Thank you for filming this video Amber. I have been teetering on weather or not this is a bag I want to add to my collection.
I bought my alma around the same time as you & it is still one of my favorite bags 😊
It's so good!
I was pleasantly surprised how nicely the opening relaxed with use. This made it easier to get in and out of the bag and in turn I ended up using it more.
This is definitely my everyday bag! Fits just what I need
It’s a great bag
The Alma BB is cute. Great review! 💕🤗💕
Thank you 🤗
I’m planning on buying the neo alma bb when I’m in Hawaii next month!! I’m soo excited!

Great video! Helpful hint. Use candle wax on the zipper and it will make it pull smoother. I did this with all my bags.
I had this exact bag but sold it so I could get the Speedy 20 in damier ebene. That just fits my lifestyle better. The alma bb is beautiful though!
This is a great review. I went to LV store to try this bag because I was ready to buy the bag. I got really sad when I tried it on and that strap setting on the bag makes it so narrow near bag opening like it was such a big con that I had to say NO to this bag within 30 seconds.

Great video! You always have the best reviews!!!
I appreciate that! Xoxo
Hi Amber could you do an updated SLG video on Chanel, LV, Gucci,,,,,,,,,,,, you have me really intrigued
I have the same bag. I use it when I'm running out to do errands and just want a small bag.
She’s adorable but I think I can finally walk away from it cuz you really hit the nail on the head when you spoke on how it fits on your body. I picked the Odeon PM over the Alma bb based on how it hung on my body. I’m also 5’3 and curvy - it just looked awkward on me.

I can’t believe it use to cost $1200 😭
I can’t wait to get one it’s such a classic. I saw it once many years ago and it’s always stuck with me
It’s such a great bag and I would highly recommend it. You should get it if you get the opportunity.
I’m planning for my bday in a few months!🤎
This is my first LV Purchase! I have the World tour Edition in Monogram with Black treated leather & red lining inside ❤
Thank you, Amber! Will watch it later. The Alma is on my wishlist, but I don‘t know if I would wear it often. But I think on the value side, it is a bag that is very stable. Greetings from Germany! ❤
I LOVE THIS!! IVE BEEN EYEING THIS BEAUTY, THANK YOU
your review is so helpful. it’s a beautiful bag but I feel the same way about the strap!
Thank you 😊
Hi Amber, can you do LV croisette azur review next? Thank you! 😘
Love the DA croisette but I love more the DE care free is so so pretty love love to have it on my collection ❤❤❤
Just bought the black epi alma bb as my 3rd luxury bag treat to myself..❤❤❤
Yay… I am so happy for you
Hello your videos are always super informative and awesome !!! Love your collection 😘 Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much!
I love Alma BB❤.. own two but none of them are in canvas..
Amber, if you could, I really love if you can do the review & comparison between the speedy b20 and odeon pm.. i really love these two bags but my budget only allow me one😂😅 most importantly how it feels when using it crossbody.. thank you Amber..have a great week💕💕
The Odeon pm feels more comfortable crossbody! The speedy is a bit bulky
It’s $2240 in Canada. The prices are getting crazy. The Kusama is $3500
I have an Alma bb in the Damier Azur print. I love it but it’s more of a spring/summer bag
i bought alma bb monogram and damier and gave the damier to my mom and she loves it. i got it when it was 1200 in 2019
I regret not buying it sooner in damier ebene, just made the purchase and it hurt! I bought my Alma bb in monogram in 2018 in Europe and only paid 975! Ugh but this was the last piece I wanted so bad! I was going to buy it preloved but went back and forth and I know older versions had a more shiny leather but I think the matte is so sleek!

You are The Best out of All who I Send 👍

That is great news. I really hope that’s true as that is my biggest complaint about the bag.
I always wanted an alma bb but I went for the Loewe small puzzle and glad I made that decision

Go Girl 🌹
I’m going back and forth between purchasing the Alma BB or the Speedy B 25. I’ve watched a few of your videos on the Alma bb and I still can’t decide.
Ive both Alma BB and speedyB 25 and must say they are both very different. SpeedyB25 can definitely fit more even a 500ml water bottle and is perfect for travelling. The only downside with Alma Bb is the strap is non adjustable and im only 5ft
I love your review on the alma BB.. I agree with the zipper and strap I wish the strap is thicker but other than that i love my alma BB.
Thank you so much
Ive always wanted this bag but I can't justify the price increases even on the second hand market. Maybe one day it'll come to me in the price I want❤
I personally prefer the thinness of the strap, ‘cause I think it makes the bag dressier than those which are thicker
Love love this bag so pretty ❤❤❤❤
I'm torn between the Alma and the Odeon. It's such a tough decision! The Alma is stunning but I think the shape of the Odeon might fit me better crossbody.
Hi, I have a question. What are your thoughts on Alma BB world tour with stickers?
I’ve been thinking about this bag for so long but never purchased it. Do you think the strap for the Speedy B might work better since it is adjustable?
Absolutely I own both bags and definitely love to use my speedy Bandolier strap looks so pretty highly recommend it
@@yulianagonzalez2428 thank you!

Love the necklace 😍
Thank you!!❤
You can buy a shorter chain strap and it will be the perfect length.
Great idea!
Cool necklace
Thank you so much ❤
U Look beautiful!!!
Luv ur Necklace…
Alma or picotin?
I don’t own the picotin so I would say Alma 🥴
My dream bag was the DE Alma BB and I still love it 💕 I’m shorter than you so I don’t use the strap whatsoever but I’ve purchased alternative straps which is fine!

Oooh i would love to own that one! 💜
