Thank you! I got some good insights! Just ordered my first LV bag and can't wait! Yes, first LV bag should be something that is you and your lifestyle. So many bags to choose but little money to buy! I love that " gift to yourself" - it supports that guilty feeling. God bless!
I love this video! Finally a woman speaking intelligently! I cannot get over these people who do not enjoy these classics JUST because others have them. Classic is classic is classic.
Thank you so much for the compliment 💕 I’d rather have classics any day! I can’t believe I just watched a video where she says my coveted Chanel flap is no longer classy 😭 But I love it anyway and wear proudly! I’m also happy with my Speedy and need nothing else! Thanks for watching!
Yes, just because others have them prompts you not to buy it. You are the one who is missing owning the classic. I cannot understand the mind of mindless people.
My little sister bought me my first Louis Vuitton bag and wallet many many years ago. I had just gone through a heartbreaking divorce and she wanted to cheer me up and start me out on my new life. I really appreciate listening to you and the information you are sharing is amazing. Thank you.
Hi Patty, I really appreciate you sharing your story. When these luxury bags have meaning, they are way more special than just collecting bags to keep up with influencer trends! Thank you ❤️
Loved loved loved this review! You’re so honest, unbiased and you don’t sound like a robot repeating what everyone else has said or what you think people want to hear, definitely a relief, and I’m a new subscriber! 🤗🤗
My husband bought me an Alma BB for my birthday and I cried coz I'm not a monogram person. I'm more basic and like simple black bags. Was in love with some thing the GG Marmont or CD Montaigne leather in black. But now as I did more research and watch more RUclips on Alma, its kind grow on me. Thank You for this vid!
I just purchased my first LV bag…. Vintage Monogram Métis …. Great size and shape for me…I hope….. before I buy it new I wanted to make sure it is the right bag for me.😅
I agree with all of this! My first ever luxury purchase is a LV bag, speedy 30 in monogram canvas 13 years ago when I was 25 years old. I purchase it in Dubai UAE when I was still working there and I am now in Sydney Australia. I still have it and it’s still gorgeous as ever! I wore this for going out partying, travelling, grocery shopping, shopping, work bag/office bag and now , a mum bag!it was narrowed by my sisters, my mother, got dropped multiple times and it’s still alive and still gorge! I have a lot of bags after this from Chanel , Hermes , Gucci etc , a lot of my bag came and gone but this is still my og bag and it’s still the best bang for my buck!it stood the test of time!
Your first Louis Vuitton bag is the one you will give to your Mom. My first LV was the OG accessories pouch. It was $185 back in 2001 and I recall the beautiful Epi-sequence boxing and bag with the blue ribbon. When I gave it to my Mom on Mother’s Day, she didn’t have a clue as to what LV was and is now her go-to pochette. Ten years later I helped her “level-up” with a silver Vernis Lexington pouch… to match her hair. Thx for sharing this vid, Michelle!
Love HIDUPZ , will be taking it to go to work. I love all the ability to organize everything w pockets some w zippers. My first bag had the liner rip. They replaced it faster than I could ship return. Thank you!
My first one is the Totally MM. Still holding strong - 7 years old. Been everything for me - travel, work, diaper bag, shopping bag. I am amazed that it still stays the same. I will never let it go!
Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection in LYXBAG other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think i watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals
If you do have to use a credit card to make a luxury purchase make sure it’s a 0% interest situation & make sure to pay it off before your zero interest runs out💪 I’ve built my credit up buying this way. Great vid, thanks for sharing 👜👜👜
Since I typically purchase handbags as part of my gift to my wife and daughter for most occasions I am quite familiar with most designer product lines. I found your channel by accident and am now a subscriber. Your information is quite helpful. Thank you.
“Even though these are luxury bags they are not meant to be one size fits all occasions.” Yes girl! Totally agree. The speedy and alma has always been my fav from the line. At over 1K for a speedy 25 it’s really hard when there are so many other brands, same style and very well made. You’re right we have to remember to shop responsibly even especially with luxury goods! I did over buy and will be selling some items as well. I also buy what works for you my wardrobe but also my frame. I am 5’4 and 120 and I’m inverted triangle. Hobo bags - not a good look for me. Cross body - hand held. Clutches. Yes! Small and large bags - No No! Medium ones. Yes! Small leather goods, I am realizing not really a good thing for me. It makes the bag far too heavy. I like pockets. I love your videos! Your daughter is so cute. My son makes an appearance with mine and it’s so funny! Keep growing!!!!
Thank you so much! Yes, some of these bags get HEAVY once you load them! Thanks for supporting my channel, and I will show some love to yours as well! 💕
My first luxury bag was the speedy 35, so happy with it years on. Perfect size for me and its without the strap. I pretty much agree with you on all the advice.
LYXBAG bag love the quality and it came with every pocket and compartment just as stated in the description. I particularly like the length of the handle it sets nicely on my shoulder not too long or too short plus the sturdiness it seems to have.
You have a unique charm! thanks to you I found a perfect vintage bag in great condition for 395 it's a double flap 30mm saumor and I love it! Thank you I saved 2400 by going vintage since my alma bb mistake.! And I got a celne box bag inspired version for 40 bucks. I love bags that gowith my outfits. My budget is under 1500 and have alot of small bags now I have to be creative to get my handbag fix and it's fun!!
After thinking about it for some time, I finally took the plunge and just ordered as celebration for my 55th birthday! I love your philosophy of gifting oneself! I was considering one of the newer styles, but kept going back to my first love of the classics. I ordered the Speedy 30 bandouliere. I have become tired of trying to change my bag all the time and can relate to having a lot of trendy bags-not luxury, but not cheap either. So many of my bags have only been worn one time. This video was very helpful! I love your info, energy and spirit!
Came across your videos because I just received my very first Louis bag as a gift! He purchased me a Louis Speedy 30 (classic monogram) with the strap! The unboxing experience was AWESOME received the magazine , perfume samples and of course the classic lock with keys. Wanted to learn how to care for it and was so HAPPY you suggested NOT treating it because that was the FIRST THING I WANTED TO DO! Been watching your videos since they are very informative LOUIS VUITTON should really be THANKFUL to you for the videos ❤️
@@AlisMarsaili1351 thank you its an early birthday gift my birthday isn't until February but definitely changed the way I feel when carrying it NOT CONCIETED but GROWN UP!
I used to think that the the best “first LV bag” is whatever the person likes, however what you’ve said makes so much sense! Well organized, honest & informative video, awesome! Also love what you said about no such thing as a basic bag- you’re 100% right!
Really enjoyed this video because I just purchased my very first LV bag and I’m 38. I feel like I’m so late to the game 😂😓 surprisingly I didn’t get any of these mentioned-I fell in love with mini pochette métis east west bag, but I definitely want the speedy 20 and the alma bb in my collection next, and possibly the mini bum bag. TY for posting this and telling us the story behind these beautiful bags. Here for it. 💖
I am 63 so I am really late to the game. When I was younger I didn't care I changed my purses and shoes out quite a bit so I did not want to spend about a lot of money. I have a friend that knew I was looking for a preowned Louis and had Aunt who was wealthy and had gifted her, her sister and her mother some bags so when her mother my friend passed away she gave me her mother's. It is a vintage pre 2000 Speedy 30. I really like it and it is a perfect shape I am looking LV shoulder bag but again it will have to be preowned as I have 2 children in college
Haha your so funny changing their bags as often as tampons 🤣. I’ve heard “basic bag (s)” so often I just go with what I really want oppose to the It Bags because trendy bags are are not supposed to last from the word trend. I will always go fo classic and what fits in my lifestyle 💕💕💕.
You are so classy Mary. With all your gorgeous outfits, you could hold a paper bag and still look very sophisticated. What people don’t realize it’s not the bag that makes you classy, it’s how you carry it! 💕
The monogram neo noes have a very general and specific issue with the glazing peeling off. Google this concern if you are considering this piece. I work for LV as an advisor and I always inform my clients of this issue. The neo noe is $2,030.00 and that’s a lot of money for a bag. I only wish to make your purchase worth while since you’re on the market for a designer bag.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the HIDUPZ leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
I bought my first Louis Vuitton bag back in 2011 - it was a monogram Speedy35... my second one was a Neverfull MM in Damier Azur... I still have both bags and love them to bits (I do not use the Speedy that often anymore, but since it was my first designer purchase ever, I have a very sentimental connection to it and could never ever resell it). By now I also own a Vintage Noe, a NeoNoe and an Alma BB aswell (I‘m just a Louis girl 😁 - the collection grew over the years) - so I love all your recommendations 💕- it do not have to be the most expensive purses at LV, that influencers make us desire and some of the SAs try to push 😅 Funfact: I have worn an Eva Azur Pochette to a wedding before 😅🙈 Great video as allways 💕🌷
Maybe the azure Eva is the only acceptable one, but it’s not sold anymore! I wish I had one! Thank you for sharing Mari, keep growing your channel too! 😘💕💕
@@dialmstyle thank you ☺️ it grows in little babysteps, but since it‘s just been a month since I started uploading, I‘m very pleased with the way it‘s going. Today I finally ordered a proper camera, microphone and ringlight 🥳 can‘t wait to level up the quality of my videos.
I have a great SA in NYC who is happy to sell whether a book, a Pochette Accessories or an Alma PM, or Speedy. I agreed a speedy or Alma are great starter bags. Thanks for a great video! ❤
I've got the speedy 25 b, the day I pick it up, I noticed flaws and all the brass tarnished SO much, after wearing it twice and stored it really well🥲🥲 I made an entire video about it🤦🏻♀️
My first LV was the small Chantilly, I just fell in love with the shape and all the detail of the vachetta leather strap. Even though, I could not fit much into it, I learned to downsize. Then I got a Speedy 35, Men’s Toiletry Case which I still use as a make up bag, checkbook, Sarah Wallet, Artsy MM (once again that braid detail on the vachetta leather carry wooed me!), and last purchase was the Speedy Bandoliere 50 for travel as well as my son’s first piece of LV as a gift…one of the men’s wallets. I just sent him your video on proper usage and care, Thank You! I do have to say these astonishing price increases and practices have this lifetime LV collector a bit irate. All of the purchases above also do not include LV that I have gifted to family. I will be looking at the gently used market or even looking in a different direction, which I never thought I would do! I have always respected the history, craftsmanship, and integrity of the genuine article but these increases and waiting lists are ABSURD. I know I cannot be the only one that thinks so.
Thank you for the history! I wasn't enticed to buy the classic style of purses you mentioned because I see them everywhere. In my head, those purses lost their value to me, personally (thanks to my ignorance about the branf). I'm a kind of person that appreciate classy and unique (I don't mean trendy. Just not so common, if I make sense). But after hearing the background stories of each style, I grew a great appreciation to those 4 classic LV styles you mentioned. I feel more connected and interested to save for a Speedy or NeoNeo. I wished that I've came across your channel last month before I bought my first LV purse. This would have been very helpful. But no worries, I was happy with my purchase. I bought a Petite Malle Souple in black monogram empreinte leather. It was really cute!
Hi Pauline! Thank you, wow what a compliment! Congratulations on your first bag! I understand your point of view, these bags are everywhere and don’t seem special anymore. However, I’ve also had clients like you who buy something else, and eventually say “I can’t believe i don’t have a speedy, or neverfull!” I’m glad you got some value from my video! Thanks for watching!!💕
It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on artisans and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 COPYMAXS bags in the past 3 years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Love your insider comments. They're things I never would have thought about prior and put a number of things in perspective. Personally, I have always only liked the Neverfull and Alma of the big 4. The Lockme and Crosette bags are now on my radar thanks to you!
You are so wonderful and awesome! Thank you so much!!!! I bought some Louis Vuitton bags from the official store in Paris and noticed some defects. I decided to switch out the horizon 55 luggage for an actual bag but haven’t decided which one yet. Your video helped a lot! Thank you!
My first LV bag was the speedy 35 damier ebene in 2010 I was happy when I got it from the London New Bond Street store the shopping experience was great and my collection has grown with more bags, SLGs your recommendation are great for first time buyers I plan to add the alma bb to my collection this year as I’ve really gotten into mini bags since lockdown I don’t need as much 😊
Thank you another great video. I recently just purchased my first ever new ! Bag I chose the Alma pm over speedy. Was going for speedy but just loved the ease of Alma opening and the bb felt too small for me these days I like full size bag . Still will add speedy some day but really do feel like a queen with my Alma!! Thanks again look for to your videos.
That is kinda true 😂. I did my research and pretty much I was like do I want it or not. And I was like yes… I want and I got it🤩. Story with my keepall. But wondering about the messengers and backpacks. Anything that is recommended/worth the money. 😝
These are all so classic, my first bag was always going to be the Neverfull and I still adore it. I really don't like the 'basic and boring' name. Adore the tampon line! 💕
I only stick to the Speedy bags in 2 sizes and my 2nd preference is the Alma bb in monogram with black handles. Thank u for sharing your thoughts, it means a lot coming from you.
Thanks for giving us the inside scoop! It seems that the stores now focus on leather and discourage sales of canvas from what you said. I won’t go in store and go preloved whether it is for leather or canvas. The retail prices for empreinte are very high and I also don’t want to waste the salesperson’s time since they probably will carry canvas pieces in very limited quantities in the future. Hope you are having a great weekend!💖
I bought a speedy bandouliere (damier) mm30. I'm only 5'1". I feel like a mm25 would've been better. But you know what? I'm happy with it. I own a genuine one.
Lol it seems LV is still benefitting from your services. I am too, so thank you for sharing. I'm looking to buy the LV ear rings, however, this was a nice watch as well.
Hi! Thanks for this video..it helps so much since I'm very close to purchasing my first LV handbag!! Nice to get advice from someone that has worked in the LV store!! God bless take care thanks again
Come across this video randomly and I watched LYXBAG . OMG your closet is every women’s dream! Love your voice and the way you talk
Come across this video randomly and I watched HIDUPZ . OMG your closet is every women’s dream! Love your voice and the way you talk
The variety of textures in the LYXBAG pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
I can't wait to buy my first LV bag. It will be a nursing school graduation gift to myself
You’re brutally honest and I love that about you Michelle! Thank you for your insight!
He he thank you 😊 💕
My mom bought one HIDUPZ and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
Thank you! I got some good insights! Just ordered my first LV bag and can't wait! Yes, first LV bag should be something that is you and your lifestyle. So many bags to choose but little money to buy! I love that " gift to yourself" - it supports that guilty feeling. God bless!
Congratulations! 🎉 How exciting! What bag did you get? My very first was the Cabas Piano in 2000 😊
Love your channel! Which wallet do you recommend? Zippy, Clemence? I’m so curious to hear your opinion ❤️
“Change their bags as often as they change their tampons” best quote ever haha
😂 hi friend!
OMG YES! I laughed so loud !!! And sadly...it’s true 😂😂😅😅🤣
Whatever the reasons are my opinion is this: Nothing is worth 10k. End of story. I will keep buying my *suluxy* bags.
Watched your video 2 years ago, now again, it’s still the best advice for LV new customer! Thank you!😊
Aw thank you 😊
I love this video! Finally a woman speaking intelligently! I cannot get over these people who do not enjoy these classics JUST because others have them. Classic is classic is classic.
Thank you so much for the compliment 💕 I’d rather have classics any day! I can’t believe I just watched a video where she says my coveted Chanel flap is no longer classy 😭 But I love it anyway and wear proudly! I’m also happy with my Speedy and need nothing else! Thanks for watching!
Yes, just because others have them prompts you not to buy it. You are the one who is missing owning the classic. I cannot understand the mind of mindless people.
In fact, this is usually not the price for locals... locals usually get more cheap at *preluxz*
My little sister bought me my first Louis Vuitton bag and wallet many many years ago. I had just gone through a heartbreaking divorce and she wanted to cheer me up and start me out on my new life. I really appreciate listening to you and the information you are sharing is amazing. Thank you.

It’s a classic!

Love HIDUPZ , will be taking it to go to work. I love all the ability to organize everything w pockets some w zippers. My first bag had the liner rip. They replaced it faster than I could ship return. Thank you!
Finally! Some realistic advice! I became a first time mom and started my LV collection last year. My view on bag silhouettes has totally changed!
Congrats on both! 🎉
My first one is the Totally MM. Still holding strong - 7 years old. Been everything for me - travel, work, diaper bag, shopping bag. I am amazed that it still stays the same. I will never let it go!
That is a bag they Totally should have not discontinued!!
I just added the totally mm to my collection as my work bag, found one preloved but in amazing condition!
This is solid advice that I wish I had when I started acquiring my collection.
My advice to you is to use your bags! 😝
I love how you say “it’s a gift for yourself”🥰🥰🥰 loving your video.

Just not so common, if I make sense). But after hearing the background stories of each style, I grew a great appreciation to those 4 classic LV styles you mentioned. I feel more connected and interested to save for a Speedy or NeoNeo.
I wished that I've came across your channel last month before I bought my first LV purse. This would have been very helpful. But no worries, I was happy with my purchase. I bought a Petite Malle Souple in black monogram empreinte leather. It was really cute!
Hi Pauline! Thank you, wow what a compliment! Congratulations on your first bag! I understand your point of view, these bags are everywhere and don’t seem special anymore. However, I’ve also had clients like you who buy something else, and eventually say “I can’t believe i don’t have a speedy, or neverfull!” I’m glad you got some value from my video! Thanks for watching!!💕
It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on artisans and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 COPYMAXS bags in the past 3 years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Love how Honest, posh and educational your channel is.
Thank you 😊
Great video ! Very helpful. You are so witty! You are a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you so much 💕
my first LV was an alma bb, I went onto purchase many more including the Neverfull MM & GM
My first was Manhattan pm. Love it and now I have speedy 30. My best friend sister gifted to me.
I just purchased my very lv bag and I’m loving it 😃
the hidupz would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
Your fabulous Michelle, I’m ordering a bag today from LV even after researching I was undecided until I came across and watched your video.
Xo
Have all 4 - neverfull and NeoNoe in mono, speedy and Alma bb in DE. Thanks for sharing!
My comment is late, but this made me continue to buy preloved alma bb 😜thanks. Your channel rocks
good thing I’ve watched this before purchasing my first lv ❤ thanks!
Love your insider comments. They're things I never would have thought about prior and put a number of things in perspective. Personally, I have always only liked the Neverfull and Alma of the big 4. The Lockme and Crosette bags are now on my radar thanks to you!
I just bought my first LV bag , is a Odeon MM and I love it! I love your videos!😘
Congrats Lorena! Thank you! 💕
While watching the video I happened to go to HIDUPZ just to see... and now I have a lovely Vancouver in my shopping bag. so cute!
Come across this video randomly and I watched *preluxz* OMG your closet is every women’s dream! Love your voice and the way you talk
You are so wonderful and awesome! Thank you so much!!!! I bought some Louis Vuitton bags from the official store in Paris and noticed some defects. I decided to switch out the horizon 55 luggage for an actual bag but haven’t decided which one yet. Your video helped a lot! Thank you!
Thank you! ❤️ I know I have been hearing a lot about defects, and that shouldn’t be!
Thank you Michelle! I never considered to get the neverfull bag but since watching your video, I think I might!
Thank you for watching! 💕
Omg I want the alma BB now because of coco Chanel. 😊 thanks for the info. Very insightful.
Love your videos. Calms my buying anxiety to get an LV bag without research. Thank you for your honesty!
I love your videos! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your lovely recommendations l! So excited to celebrate my new Louis Vuitton!
My first LV bag was the speedy 35 damier ebene in 2010 I was happy when I got it from the London New Bond Street store the shopping experience was great and my collection has grown with more bags, SLGs your recommendation are great for first time buyers I plan to add the alma bb to my collection this year as I’ve really gotten into mini bags since lockdown I don’t need as much 😊
Thank you so much 💕
Thank you for this video! My first luxury purchase was this year with the Speedy 30 and Neverfull MM :) They're both very lovely!
Congrats !
Very good!! I’d like to purchase speedy 25 and alma pm!! My dreams bags for now!!
Perfect! Will probably order a Neverfull later today! Need a new tote!
Great tips! My first LV bag purchased was Noe with a base, bought in Paris in 1993。
Oooh what an experience!
Really appreciate your input, this was really helpful
Thank you, glad you got value out of it!
Thank you another great video. I recently just purchased my first ever new ! Bag I chose the Alma pm over speedy. Was going for speedy but just loved the ease of Alma opening and the bb felt too small for me these days I like full size bag . Still will add speedy some day but really do feel like a queen with my Alma!!
Thanks again look for to your videos.
Oh yes!! If you feel like a Queen then you’ve made the right decision! ✨💕
Love the video!! Maybe make one for men’s bags too 🤪
The thing is, men don’t take long to pick and are not as confused as women! 😂 But I can review the top backpacks! 💕
That is kinda true 😂. I did my research and pretty much I was like do I want it or not. And I was like yes… I want and I got it🤩. Story with my keepall. But wondering about the messengers and backpacks. Anything that is recommended/worth the money. 😝
Ha I loved it 😂😂😂
@@dialmstyle I’m a man but I have been deciding to buy my first designer bag since May ( 4 months ) now already 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fantastic loved that change there bag as often as they change there tampons brilliant love it hunni your great 🥰
These are all so classic, my first bag was always going to be the Neverfull and I still adore it. I really don't like the 'basic and boring' name. Adore the tampon line! 💕
Love your collection and your Channel Amelia! I think you’re quite sensible with your bags! 💕
Absolutely love this video, your suggestions are so helpful, thank you!!! I would love to get the Alma BB
Thanks for your great recommendations, I really love to have louis vuitton bag
I only stick to the Speedy bags in 2 sizes and my 2nd preference is the Alma bb in monogram with black handles. Thank u for sharing your thoughts, it means a lot coming from you.
Excellent choices! Both unique and iconic to Vuitton! Thank you so much for your comment 💕
Love the bandeau you have on and thanks for including the link.
Thanks, it’s a cute accessory 💕
Such great info! I agree with not totally trusting the SA advice. I go with what I like. Period.
Thanks for giving us the inside scoop! It seems that the stores now focus on leather and discourage sales of canvas from what you said. I won’t go in store and go preloved whether it is for leather or canvas. The retail prices for empreinte are very high and I also don’t want to waste the salesperson’s time since they probably will carry canvas pieces in very limited quantities in the future. Hope you are having a great weekend!💖
Thanks love! 💕
I think your first LV should be the Alma BB. It's such a elegant bag.
So elegant I agree!
Thank you for the wonderful information.much appreciated.
I love your honesty! Finishing with an amazon purchase! Thats great
Great video! I love your Pearls of Wisdom!! ❤️❤️❤️ xox, Lorna
Thank you Lorna 💕
Thank you ! I travel often and see th LV bags and I'm like those are just chic no lie time to get one.
I bought a speedy bandouliere (damier) mm30. I'm only 5'1". I feel like a mm25 would've been better. But you know what? I'm happy with it. I own a genuine one.
Thank you so much for this candid and helpful information. I feel so much more confident about approaching my first LV purchase.
💕
Lol it seems LV is still benefitting from your services. I am too, so thank you for sharing. I'm looking to buy the LV ear rings, however, this was a nice watch as well.
Hi! Thanks for this video..it helps so much since I'm very close to purchasing my first LV handbag!! Nice to get advice from someone that has worked in the LV store!! God bless take care thanks again
