I was trying to find a LV crossbody, and hadn’t seen the Pochette Metis till this video! So I set out on the hunt a couple of months ago, and the LV shop near my office finally got one in! I picked it up yesterday, and I’m thrilled! I don’t know how long ago you got yours, but they’re getting kind of “specialized” now. The price was just slightly higher than yours, and depending on the store, you need to get on a waiting list. I was lucky I didn’t have to wait all that long! So thank you again, I feel like I might not have even known about the Pochette Metis if not for you!
Love this video!!! My husband offered me a Neonoe Noir for my 50th birthday. It should arrive in 2-3 weeks. I own an Alma monogram MM, a favorite monogram PM and a Neverfull monogram MM. I haven't use my Alma since I got my NF and two kids. Now I a debating if I should return the Neonoe Noir for the Pochette Metis or the Speedy B 30 Damier. Please help!
Shea I absolutely love your videos. I have the LV favorite which I love. Now I just need to get the Chanel, Gucci, and PM. I want them all. Such great choices. After getting the favorite I realized my preference in handbags are crossbody bags.
I just love your videos! Bought my first LV bag last wknd (Never full GM) and now I'm hooked! Currently debating between getting the favorite MM or the speedy B 25 to wear cross body... 🤔
I love the Pochette Metis too. It really is the perfect cross body becuase it's small, but fits a lot. Another one I love is the Gucci Soho Disco bag. It's another one that looks deceivingly small, but really fits a lot of stuff.
Hey Shea, Wanted to really compliment on this video- its informative in the right way- n to too much boring detail but everything important covered. thank you for thinking this through. I have two boys as well and I am convinced i need the pouchette metis. Thanks again! Love your content. x
As someone that has the Pochette Metis and the Gucci Blooms WoC in blue, I fully agree with your choices! The Favorite is definitely appealing as well, especially with the idea of using the PM strap on it. I'm all about the crossbody bags, you can never have enough. Another one I have and love is the District PM, it might technically be part of the men's line, but it's a super carefree and casual bag!
I have been stalking the LV site for the monogram adjustable crossbody strap for over a week and today it appeared and I placed it in my cart and made my purchase so you are correct, definitely keep stalking the site it does appear from time to time. Great video as always! :)
Love all your bags. I always wanted the favorite but when I tried it on in store, i really didn't like the strap. I'm loving the Dionysus bag as well! You have such great style 😍
lol you picked the one I ended up getting because of your other videos. I really love it, I got it in the black leather, but its an amazing bag. Your videos are so infomative thank you!!!!
Shea I think your the best you are always so informative, you have awesome opinions❣️for some reason I had a feeling you would choose the methis as your favorite, you still sound congested is it allergies or are you still sick ~ have a great weekend 😘💕💕
Awesome video, Shea!!! I have the Pochette Metis in reversed monogram and absolutely love it!! I've been looking at the Gucci WOC and favorite and you sealed the deal!! I'm pretty confident my next smaller crossbody bag will be the Gucci WOC!!! Thank you for sharing!!
Great video Shea! Very informative! They say great minds think alike. Meaning if I had the same four bags in this video and could only choose one to keep, I would have picked the Pochette Metis as well.
I have two. The Louis Vuitton crossbody twin pochette which I regret because it doesn't hold much but I use it in the evenings and vacations and also the Louis Vuitton Danube crossbody.
Shea...I know you mentioned Apple Guard as a good protectant for vachetta and I wanted to ask you...I purchased the Speedy 25b mono...do you think adding a protectant would be good? Also, do you add Apple guard to all of your bags with vachetta? Thank you.
Hi shea I watch your video very longtime now. I love your every bag. Thank you for doing all that video they are all very help for every women who like fashion luxury things . So now i need you help . I want to buy a bag from lv , but i love three different bag , i can’t decide. I know i will buy therm all in the future but now i just want to one . So the three one is 1, pochette metis 2, favorite mm 3, speedy 30 Which one is you recommend?
Great video! The other cross body bag that I love, in addition to my pochette metis and my Chanel minis, is my Balenciaga small city in metallic edge hardware. Holds a lot and has really beautiful goatskin leather!
Hi I love all ur videos. Just wondering is Gucci queen Margaret good to purchase? I am planning to buy it but I need an advice from an expert. What do u think the Gucci queen Margaret? Thanks and have a great day😊
Did the lv mm favorite come with the other strap that you said was too short for you? Or would that have been separate too? I really loved this video! Thank you for sharing. Do you have any pieces in the Damien azure? I was looking at the croisette. Have you tried that on in person?
Best video!!! As always u put in So much time and effort into all of your videos. I appreciate it and I love your videos. Thank you so much so informative
I love cross body bags. They are the perfect shopping or travel bags when you need to be hands free. So, thanks for this very deep comparison/review. It has been really helpful. On another topic, I have a very old Chanel lambskin bag that has stood the test of time beautifully. I find the rubbing with the finger trick works well too for getting out scratches. But don't panic if you find it doesn't work initially. I have found that after you rub it, leave it out for 24 hours, then rub it again. The oils in your fingers keep working on the scratch while it stands. I have found that fairly large, surface scratches can take up to 4 days of this before they come out. And I got a deep gash in it last Christmas that I really thought wasn't going to come out. As you could imagine, I was hysterical. But I kept at it. It took around two months of rubbing every night, but it did eventually begin to fade and came out. So, ladies, don't be frightened of lambskin. It is tougher than it's reputation implies.
Thank you Lisa! I really need to do a whole video on this. But in a nutshell - I highly recommend the Facebook "Addicted" groups. Search Louis Vuitton Addicted, Chanel Addicted, Gucci Addicted...etc. Request to join and post your items there. Its a great way to sell!! :)
I have the Pochette Mettis and have the Pochette accessory that I use the monogram strap for a crossbody. I was considering the favorite mm but not sure if I should add as a crossbody. What are your thoughts?
Love this video!! Your videos are so informative and are helping me figure out what I want to purchase! Part of me is dying to buy the 6 ring key holder but I think I'd rather buy a bag..I can't decide!
Loved this video. It was so much fun and informative to watch. I have the pochette metis and I am so in love with it too. 🙃 I love the Gucci Dionysus line it's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 🤗🤗
Aw shea! I totally agree with you about the chanel mini! It is very expensive for what its worth and plus over at louis vuitton, they have really good after sales care. The pochette metis is really a great bag!
Shea you look absolutely amazing. I love all your bags they're always classic and goes with everything. Lol the struggle for saying Gucci bag sometimes the names annoys me when I can't say or remember them. Very informative and so helpful. You've no idea how much I grown in knowledge-wise about these brands before I find you. Before that I just had the knowledge of the names of the brands and how luxurious they are but bags styles, leathers, how to style it, how to take care of it and which one is suitable for what occasion and everything I learned from you. Thank you so much for all the knowledge you've given me. Lots of Love 💖💜💗💕
So funny that you said you just can't rub it against a brick wall....as soon as I got my Alexander Wang rockie, I wore it grocery shopping and ran into a brick wall haha. First scratch lol. Great video. You are very well spoken and always so informative. Ps, love your hair
Thanks so much for your reviews - I want to get a LV as well. How long do you think I could carry one for? For example if I get a Favorite MM - I could probably carry for a year or so?
I love long videos ❤️. And I guessed right. PM is your favourite 👌🏼. I have only one and I've been carrying it to death. It's my Gucci Soho Disco bag. It's nearly 5 years old and still in great condition.
Hey Shea, great video! I really want to know your opinion on my bag dilemma: I am a college student and at the moment cannot afford any designer bags. But I really fell in love with Gucci Dionysus bags so much and not because of the brand name or anything, but because the design is gorgeous! So I have been eyeing this $100 knock off of Gucci Dionysus Small suede and leather shoulder bag in blue. The knock off is a bit smaller and darker than the original one, but looks really great and its made of real leather so the quality should be good. By no means I am trying to fool anybody or show off like if I have real Gucci, it is just the design that looks very stylish and I love so much. So I've been wondering if my 'fake bag' might look a bit TACKY... Because even though there is no logo, the bag looks exactly like the original one. What do you think?
Thank you so much...I'm glad you liked my video!! If you're happy with the bag that looks very similar to the original Gucci one...then go for it!!! Without seeing it, it's hard for me to say if it looks "tacky"....but if you really like it, then who cares. From what I can tell, you have great taste! Plus, $100 is a great price.
Do you have a video or could you do one discussing crossbody bags versus other types. I've used crossbody for years, but I'm thinking about switching for more comfort or style.
I am the same height as you, also a mum of two, of the four bags you mentioned in this video I have three of them apart from the Gucci woc I don't have. The favorite I also have the exact same mm in mg. and I use my pochette Metis strap when I use my favorite. My Chanel rectangular mini is also lamb skin in black, but it's in silver hardwear. Liked n subscribed! N the pochette Metis is my favourite too.
Hey Shea. Loves this video!! It was so helpful. Greatly appreciate it. If you want to sell the other mono strap, I am definitely interested. Getting the Reverse PM and want that strap so bad to interchange with the bag.
I was thinking about a Gucci crossbody and the bloom collection is so cute! How tall are you? I am 5'9" and just trying to get an idea of where it would hit on a taller person.
Would love to see videos on following topics from you: (1) your favorite bag for each luxury designer (2) your favorite bag for each color: black, nude, red, white etc
I’m looking to make my first luxury bag this year, I’m debating between the pochette metis and the Gucci marmont GG in the small. What are your thoughts?
I have the Chanel Classic wallet on a chain which I only use for New Years because I can dance with it. I also have the Boy Orig Medium which is NOT my go to bag. I saw your video, as well as, Lydia Millen & Mel from Melbourne who also ❤️ the LV Metis - due to your recommendation, I've been on the wait list for this bag at least two months. Was told I may receive it by June 🤞can't wait. As always, thank you for your informative videos. 😘
Hi Shea, do you think you would ever sell your Favorite MM? I love cross body bags too and am currently in love with the LV Crosiette bag - it's a great cross between pochette metis and Favorite - so I don't reach for my Favorite really anymore. Could you see yourself selling the Favorite to get something else? I think I hesitate selling it only because it is rumored to be discontinued 😂.
Aside from the luxury ones what other crossbody bags do you have? I recently purchased the Pochette Metis and as much as I'd like to carry it as an everyday bag, I am scared to actually do so. So I'm looking to purchase a more affordable crossbody bag that I don't have to be paranoid carrying
Is the strap on the you have on the LV Favorite the same strap as the LV Pochette Metis? I have the Pochette and it's a little short (I'm 5'8")...wondering if that other strap is longer...TIA!
Thanks! So at it's longest length, it's the same exact? I find the Metis's strap is a little too thick and doesn't have much give. For example, I don't use it much and noticed the strap all warped and trying to get it back into shape is very frustrating.
great video, i have the felicie empreinte and the pallas clutch, both pretty but dont hold much... looking for something that holds more i havnt seen the metis in person. will have to check it out!
Was so lucky to get the metis, have hugh LV collection but this is my favorite. They will be more readily available as time goes on so everyone will be able to add it to collection.
Great video !!!! I have the favorite mm in DE and the pochette metis and i love it !!!! I want a Saint Laurent WOC to have something dressier but i love the info !
Ok had an entire other comment here about the difference in the Mono straps but you answered my question I will continue with the pochette Metis strap on my favorite mm in mono that I have just added I felt the same way adding it feeling like it was so similar to the pochette Metis but I feel like the gold chain makes it more dressy than the PM it is better for a lighter crossbody I definitely think they are different enough so I have both Now I really wanted the favorite in mono because I had the mono strap already and I wish I would have gotten the favorite over the eva years go oh well live and learn !
I love this!! You do such a great job! I'm still confused on which I want...looking at Gucci Dionysus medium and also looked at the Pochette Metis and Gucci Marmont. I'm torn 🙁 and I can't make up my mind. 🤔
I really want a LV Speedy 35 one day... but I honestly don't understand how any bag goes up in value with time... personally I take very good care of my bags, etc... but I just don't see spending that much in a purse after someone else has used it, because unfortunately we don't know how well someone else takes care of their bags... anyway I am legitimately asking... just trying to figure out whats the best way to go about purchasing my first LV, when that time comes... I am not against pretty loved at all, just don't see spending more for a pretty loved, than a new one... I am also 6ft tall... so crossbody bags are difficult for me to buy without trying on.... Anyway I usually carry way too much for a cross body anyway lol although I do own some, and enjoy them at times.... I personally want the Speedy 30 or 35... but what all cross body's, luxury and/or non luxury do u all recommend for tall women?? Again, I am 6ft tall... but something that fits, at least5'11 well, im sure would work OK for me too.... tia!! :)
I just got the Pochette Metis in emperitent as a surprise mothers day gift. My favorite crossbody bag is the twice as for a quick go to bag and I said to hubby wish this was a tad bit bigger so I guess that's why he got me the PM. I have the favorite with the mono strap cause I was afraid of the vachetta and needed the extra length. However I do not reach for this bag and have only worn it a few times:( I have it on the market. Definitely going to be loving the pm and twice as my go to. love the Gucci bag thinking I may want that in the future:)
That's awesome!! It's interesting how we never know what we'll really love and actually use until we get it! What color empriente leather did you get?? :)
I am so in love with bags right now! It's so hard to choose to add to my collection. I do think Chanel is pricing Themselves out of the market. Other designers are doing a great job right now.
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid forgot the password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Salvatore Gus Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Great content... love the details, the honesty, and it is very helpful... another great video dear... also thanks for taking the time to make this very helpful videos...
Hi again :D I am concidering buying Louis Vuitton Favorite PM/MM and as U've listed taking it off stores as a CON. I've checked ebay, vestiairecollective, etc. and others. It seems like this model, pre loved, is already being sold for same or MORE than it costs in DOLLARS or, especially, GBP. Base on that, maybe, we can assume this is gonna gain a wonderful price in couple years, when becomes a limited amount? I think it may be a good investment, if they move to more expencive models, with the waitlist and a price of Metis? Love to know Ur thoghts on that, xoxo :)
Hi Shea! Thanks for the answer. Next couple days, I have a chance to purchase a pre loved MM Monogram. I will be spending August in New York and I wonder, if I'd like to buy an extra strap for this one, the Monogram Strap that U did buy... They may not have it at the store (they don't in my city, checked already), will they give me a chance to order it and will it be ready to pick up in like, couple days? or do I have to buy online and that's it? I wish it could be my souvenir from NY :) I don't know how it works as my Speedy 30 Damier Ebene was also a pre love. Thanks :)
i dont feel like a weirdo when i watched this video. i speak with so much passion when i speak about my bags. love love the video
His LYXBAG tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big. I look forward to joining my rotation.
I still find this very informative after 6 years. Thank you!

Love this video!!! My husband offered me a Neonoe Noir for my 50th birthday. It should arrive in 2-3 weeks. I own an Alma monogram MM, a favorite monogram PM and a Neverfull monogram MM. I haven't use my Alma since I got my NF and two kids. Now I a debating if I should return the Neonoe Noir for the Pochette Metis or the Speedy B 30 Damier. Please help!
What did you decide? I have the NeoNoe and I love it, but I also want to add the Métis
I have and love the LYXBAGS in the same colour and have the marmont in the small in the velvet. Judith is on my list.
I love the LV PM, it took me almost 2years(and the price went from $2100AUD to $2400) to get one, I am in love with it!
Do you find the metis strap very stiff?? Will it soften overtime? Or do you know a way to soften it? Thank you so much I love watching
Shea I absolutely love your videos. I have the LV favorite which I love. Now I just need to get the Chanel, Gucci, and PM. I want them all. Such great choices. After getting the favorite I realized my preference in handbags are crossbody bags.
Thank you so much!! I'm really glad you liked this video!!! XOXO
You are so thorough and helpful in your videos!! It's so evident how much love and hard work you put into your videos/channel! ❤️ Love your taste!!!
I just love your videos! Bought my first LV bag last wknd (Never full GM) and now I'm hooked! Currently debating between getting the favorite MM or the speedy B 25 to wear cross body... 🤔

Thank you so much for saying that Stacy!! Your comment made me smile :)
i'm getting the pochette metis for my 20th birthday i am so excited
Love this! So informative! How do you feel about the Gucci Disco?
good video Shea!! I like my pochette metis in reverse mono as a great crossbody. I equally love my Neo Noe as a cross body!
Shea I think your the best you are always so informative, you have awesome opinions❣️for some reason I had a feeling you would choose the methis as your favorite, you still sound congested is it allergies or are you still sick ~ have a great weekend 😘💕💕
Very detailed video with the pros and cons including the prices. Awesome job Shea!👍🏻
Awesome video, Shea!!! I have the Pochette Metis in reversed monogram and absolutely love it!! I've been looking at the Gucci WOC and favorite and you sealed the deal!! I'm pretty confident my next smaller crossbody bag will be the Gucci WOC!!! Thank you for sharing!!

I have two. The Louis Vuitton crossbody twin pochette which I regret because it doesn't hold much but I use it in the evenings and vacations and also the Louis Vuitton Danube crossbody.
I really wish the Pochette Metis came in the epi leather. I’m not a fan of the labels all over it but I love the shape of it.
Ilina Sandler omg right. I thought I was the only one.
I need that Lv monogram strap! So beautiful with it!
Shea...I know you mentioned Apple Guard as a good protectant for vachetta and I wanted to ask you...I purchased the Speedy 25b mono...do you think adding a protectant would be good? Also, do you add Apple guard to all of your bags with vachetta? Thank you.

Oh, and I almost forgot, my LV empreinte Twice in noir :)
Hi I love all ur videos. Just wondering is Gucci queen Margaret good to purchase? I am planning to buy it but I need an advice from an expert. What do u think the Gucci queen Margaret? Thanks and have a great day😊
Did the lv mm favorite come with the other strap that you said was too short for you? Or would that have been separate too? I really loved this video! Thank you for sharing. Do you have any pieces in the Damien azure? I was looking at the croisette. Have you tried that on in person?
Carrie Berschman the favourite comes with a vachetta strap for free, and i don't think she owns more than her speedy in damier azur
Love that Gucci wallet on a chain! it looks fabulous on you! Just one question, do you think it fits an iPhone 6s plus? Thanks for the video!
Best video!!! As always u put in So much time and effort into all of your videos. I appreciate it and I love your videos. Thank you so much so informative

What do you think of LV Croisette Damier Ebene?

Part of me is dying to buy the 6 ring key holder but I think I'd rather buy a bag..I can't decide!
Thank you so much Shannon!!! That's so nice of you to say! :) Both options are good haha!!
Loved this video. It was so much fun and informative to watch. I have the pochette metis and I am so in love with it too. 🙃 I love the Gucci Dionysus line it's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 🤗🤗
I need to get the strap for my azur Damier I haven’t seen a strap though 😅I did the same with my monogram favorite ❤️
Aw shea! I totally agree with you about the chanel mini! It is very expensive for what its worth and plus over at louis vuitton, they have really good after sales care. The pochette metis is really a great bag!
Shea you look absolutely amazing.
I love all your bags they're always classic and goes with everything.

Found and subscribed to your channel yesterday! Love all the info you put into your videos, very informative!!
Oh yay!! That makes me so happy!! Thank you so much :)
Would you consider purchasing the Alma BB?
I love long videos ❤️. And I guessed right. PM is your favourite 👌🏼.
I have only one and I've been carrying it to death. It's my Gucci Soho Disco bag. It's nearly 5 years old and still in great condition.
Loove ❤️ your necklace! Is it the "Kingsley" style?
Yes it is!! :) I actually linked it in the description box with a discount code because I love them so much!! :)

my husband bought me the artsy damier azur bag and wanted your opinion about this bag. I am only 5 feet 4 and wonder if it is too big.
Hey Shea. Loves this video!! It was so helpful. Greatly appreciate it. If you want to sell the other mono strap, I am definitely interested. Getting the Reverse PM and want that strap so bad to interchange with the bag.
Thank you so much!!! I'm still deciding about the strap....so I'll let you know. :)
Shea Whitney I will be waiting..........;)
Great video. Are you selling any of these bags? Sorry to ask, but if so, I'd like to purchase one of the lv bag.
I was thinking about a Gucci crossbody and the bloom collection is so cute! How tall are you? I am 5'9" and just trying to get an idea of where it would hit on a taller person.
+kamantha75 I'm 5'5 :) Thanks for watching!!
I love the LV Favorite. I just got mine last week ..... and also got the monogram strap. I have been wanting this bag forever and it was hard to find.
Would love to see videos on following topics from you: (1) your favorite bag for each luxury designer (2) your favorite bag for each color: black, nude, red, white etc
I’m looking to make my first luxury bag this year, I’m debating between the pochette metis and the Gucci marmont GG in the small. What are your thoughts?
where is your necklace from its stunning !!? thanks for the video btw!!
Imen B Thanks!! It's actually linked in the description box with a discount code! I'm obsessed with Miranda Frye jewelry!!!
thank you so much for replying, very kind of you :)
I have the Chanel Classic wallet on a chain which I only use for New Years because I can dance with it. I also have the Boy Orig Medium which is NOT my go to bag. I saw your video, as well as, Lydia Millen & Mel from Melbourne who also ❤️ the LV Metis - due to your recommendation, I've been on the wait list for this bag at least two months. Was told I may receive it by June 🤞can't wait. As always, thank you for your informative videos. 😘
Thanks so much!!! I"m glad you liked this video! And I can't wait for you to get the Pochette Metis!! :)
Hi Shea, do you think you would ever sell your Favorite MM? I love cross body bags too and am currently in love with the LV Crosiette bag - it's a great cross between pochette metis and Favorite - so I don't reach for my Favorite really anymore. Could you see yourself selling the Favorite to get something else? I think I hesitate selling it only because it is rumored to be discontinued 😂.
We have the same nail color! And I love your honesty on luxury items
Thanks so much Dani!!! My nail color is a bright change! :)
love it and not just because pink is my favorite color :)
Shea Whitney very pretty, but it looks pink on camera... that crazy how the color looks different on camera than in person
oh I'm sorry, for some reason I thought it said orange.. lol not change..
Aside from the luxury ones what other crossbody bags do you have? I recently purchased the Pochette Metis and as much as I'd like to carry it as an everyday bag, I am scared to actually do so. So I'm looking to purchase a more affordable crossbody bag that I don't have to be paranoid carrying
Is the strap on the you have on the LV Favorite the same strap as the LV Pochette Metis? I have the Pochette and it's a little short (I'm 5'8")...wondering if that other strap is longer...TIA!
Hi Esther!! The mono strap I have on my Favorite is a little thinner...but it's the same length as my Metis strap. (which is adjustable!)
That was confusing...both straps are adjustable! :)
Thanks! So at it's longest length, it's the same exact? I find the Metis's strap is a little too thick and doesn't have much give. For example, I don't use it much and noticed the strap all warped and trying to get it back into shape is very frustrating.
great video, i have the felicie empreinte and the pallas clutch, both pretty but dont hold much... looking for something that holds more i havnt seen the metis in person. will have to check it out!
Was so lucky to get the metis, have hugh LV collection but this is my favorite. They will be more readily available as time goes on so everyone will be able to add it to collection.
Can you compare the monogram strap on your favorite mm and the pochette metis side by side? Are they the same length?
What are some of the pre-loved websites you recommend?
i bought my favorite MM in mono before it's discontinued and i love it! i agree with you about the pochette metis as my no 1 bag ❤️
Love your videos Shea! Which brand do you think is more luxurious Louis Vuitton or Gucci?
Hi Shea how much would you be wanting to sell the favorite crossbody strap for?
Great video !!!! I have the favorite mm in DE and the pochette metis and i love it !!!! I want a Saint Laurent WOC to have something dressier but i love the info !
Would you recommend a red mini Chanel? How would I style that?

Ok had an entire other comment here about the difference in the Mono straps but you answered my question I will continue with the pochette Metis strap on my favorite mm in mono that I have just added I felt the same way adding it feeling like it was so similar to the pochette Metis but I feel like the gold chain makes it more dressy than the PM it is better for a lighter crossbody I definitely think they are different enough so I have both Now I really wanted the favorite in mono because I had the mono strap already and I wish I would have gotten the favorite over the eva years go oh well live and learn !
I love this!! You do such a great job! I'm still confused on which I want...looking at Gucci Dionysus medium and also looked at the Pochette Metis and Gucci Marmont. I'm torn 🙁 and I can't make up my mind. 🤔
Love this video:)one question, Just bought LV pochette Metis in pink color, do you recommend also using apple brand spray to protect it also? Thanks
No...the leather on that bag is actually already treated...so you won't have any water staining problems :)
Planning on getting the chanel mini rectangular
P.s you have a nice voice
I really want a LV Speedy 35 one day... but I honestly don't understand how any bag goes up in value with time... personally I take very good care of my bags, etc... but I just don't see spending that much in a purse after someone else has used it, because unfortunately we don't know how well someone else takes care of their bags... anyway I am legitimately asking... just trying to figure out whats the best way to go about purchasing my first LV, when that time comes... I am not against pretty loved at all, just don't see spending more for a pretty loved, than a new one... I am also 6ft tall... so crossbody bags are difficult for me to buy without trying on.... Anyway I usually carry way too much for a cross body anyway lol although I do own some, and enjoy them at times.... I personally want the Speedy 30 or 35... but what all cross body's, luxury and/or non luxury do u all recommend for tall women?? Again, I am 6ft tall... but something that fits, at least5'11 well, im sure would work OK for me too.... tia!! :)
The mini bags are not $3,700.. they are still $3,100. I called three of my SA's and they haven't heard anything
Thank you for your sharing.I have a question about the magnetic , that is strong or not?
No one does like you Shea. Literally all your tips are just the very BEST!!! 💼👌🏻👍🏻🙏 Thank you so much for this helpful Video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm thinking about getting the Favorite MM but I'm not sure what print to get. I love your videos, very informative 😊
Do you think college girls should get the mm or pm for gamedays/grocery shopping/ etc?
I just got the Pochette Metis in emperitent as a surprise mothers day gift. My favorite crossbody bag is the twice as for a quick go to bag and I said to hubby wish this was a tad bit bigger so I guess that's why he got me the PM. I have the favorite with the mono strap cause I was afraid of the vachetta and needed the extra length. However I do not reach for this bag and have only worn it a few times:( I have it on the market. Definitely going to be loving the pm and twice as my go to. love the Gucci bag thinking I may want that in the future:)
That's awesome!! It's interesting how we never know what we'll really love and actually use until we get it! What color empriente leather did you get?? :)
I got the noir:)
Hi I'm deciding what to get the gucci Soho disco or the pochette metis what should I get?
I am so in love with bags right now! It's so hard to choose to add to my collection. I do think Chanel is pricing
Themselves out of the market. Other designers are doing a great job right now.
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Gibson Javier instablaster :)
@Salvatore Gus Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Salvatore Gus it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
@Gibson Javier glad I could help :D
I love your choices except for the Favorite. The Twinset is also a gorgeous bag in leather for more or less the same price. Excellent vid!
Great content... love the details, the honesty, and it is very helpful... another great video dear... also thanks for taking the time to make this very helpful videos...
Hi! I was just wondering was your Pochette Metis made in France or USA? I've heard mixed reviews was hoping you could shed some light :) Thanks!
I have been waiting for this video could you do a what's in my bag for the Gucci would love to see just how much goes in the bag thanks !!!!!
love ur videos I don't care how long they are! Can't wait till I buy my first luxury item! your videos are sooo helpful!!! 😊
Hi again :D I am concidering buying Louis Vuitton Favorite PM/MM and as U've listed taking it off stores as a CON. I've checked ebay, vestiairecollective, etc. and others. It seems like this model, pre loved, is already being sold for same or MORE than it costs in DOLLARS or, especially, GBP. Base on that, maybe, we can assume this is gonna gain a wonderful price in couple years, when becomes a limited amount? I think it may be a good investment, if they move to more expencive models, with the waitlist and a price of Metis? Love to know Ur thoghts on that, xoxo :)
Hi Emilia!!! That is such a good point! Maybe it's a PRO!!!! I hadn't thought of it in that way :)
Hi Shea! Thanks for the answer. Next couple days, I have a chance to purchase a pre loved MM Monogram. I will be spending August in New York and I wonder, if I'd like to buy an extra strap for this one, the Monogram Strap that U did buy... They may not have it at the store (they don't in my city, checked already), will they give me a chance to order it and will it be ready to pick up in like, couple days? or do I have to buy online and that's it? I wish it could be my souvenir from NY :) I don't know how it works as my Speedy 30 Damier Ebene was also a pre love. Thanks :)
It’s also useful if you can show what items can go in each bag, with the same items, starting with the Chanel mini. 👍🏻
Honestly is it worth it to buy the pochette metis when you have the favorite mm?
