I had a vintage epi Noe years ago and sold it (regrettably) - have just bought another pre loved but the NM version. Very excited to get it!! Love epi - so understated and durable.
The petite noe is gorgeous. I remember when you introduced it here and when Trina (remember her?) bought her one as well. I also remember watching your hubby creating a log of your bags and I always meant to do the same, but haven’t! You have a beautiful Epi collection xx PS your Alma was on my wishlist for so long and I missed getting it.
Is that never full double sided? What do u call when u can flip it inside out and u can use it that way? Is the epi leather version like that, where u can use it flipping inside out?
Thanks for watching and the link to how I do this is below th-cam.com/video/O42X30nnAuI/w-d-xo.html and also th-cam.com/video/HTv47i126Pw/w-d-xo.html Ada
I would love your insight on this please, I wanted a durable daily tote bag and hate logos everywhere somehow so i stayed away from LV until I discovered the ebi noir leather option. Is it worth it? or should I stick to getting myself a ysl black tote in leather?
Hi Angie - I have heard that the YSL bag is a great buy. I do not have it myself so hard for me to comment on it’s durability but it does look good. As you probably know I am a big believer in Epi leather. It is so durable and easy to wipe over if it gets a stain or rained on. I think if you want a more traditional leather go for the YSL bag. Epi leather is not the traditional sort of leather ( hard to put into words) but one that LV can mould into different structures or softness. For eg the Alma in Epi is a more structured Epi bag my neverfull is a bit softer etc. I have had my Epi bags for many years now and never regret the purchase and love the colours they come in. The only thing I have on my Epi Bag is a few scratches but it was user error not the bag itself as they do not mark easily at all. My neverfull I walked into a brick wall and my Alma bag my puppy had sharp nails so really my fault both times. Good luck in deciding
@@adasollystyling Thanks a lot that helped I think that means it will be more durable than the ysl untreated leather, I also like that it's more structured than the ysl as I am planning to wear it daily to work. I will buy one next month you helped me decide :) new subscriber !!
I have 4 epis in my collection, the alma pm in black, petite noe in dark blue (forgot the right term), compact zippy wallet in dark pink and emily wallet in dark blue - this is the only epi leather i have with a different texture. Its not shiny at all. I got them to send me another one but they were both the same. They said the leathers not all the same sometimes. Really? I found that a bit weird.
Hey beautiful! Thank you for the video. I totally agree with you in regards to the durability of epi leather. I also have PETIT NOE in epi leather denim. I love it and will be filming a review on it soon, be sure to check it out and let me know your thoughts ☺️☺️
Wow! The LV Alma in silver grey is very impressive and gorgeous.
It really is!
Lovely bags. I also like epi leather. Have a fabulous day.

Chateau_chic_ thanks lovely. Yes I do remember Trina getting the Noe. Merry Christmas 🎄

I know what you mean. The canvas you can do that with but the EPI I don’t think you could as the bag has a bit more structure.
The printed envelopes are a great idea

HI my darling Ada, great video and thanks for sharing!! xoxo
Hi! Could you please provide measurements for your brea? Thanks
The Brea I purchased was the MM size, approx. 34cm wide, 24cm high and 14cm deep
@@adasollystyling Many thanks !
Nice bags. Can the work bag fit a 13 inch laptop?
Unfortunately not but an iPad would go close, it would fit in the Neverful
Thank you ❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Hi Ada, great video thanks. Do you know where the date code is on the Brea MM please? 💕
Hi Jude - the date code is in the large pocket in the bag 💼
@@adasollystyling Thanks Ada
I absolutely love love epi!!!!
Yes I agree

thanks and will do
Is those bag in epi leather heavier than canvas when empty
Yes I think it would be slightly heavier
Hello! Do you cinch the sides of the Epi neverfull?
Vanna Elaine no I don’t.
What’s the size of the Alma? Pm or mm?
It is the PM
there needs to be more good content on care of this leather.. And lessons learned on how to treat and use it so it lasts.
thanks for the suggestion
