Melinda you touched on my three pet peeves regarding what fits videos…. Showing every single item in every single slg, showing empty slgs and phone cases, and lastly, showing a bag full of empty card cases who carries three to five card cases??!! Your whats in my bag videos are always perfect. You show a a realistic working bag, reasonably full slgs, sunglasses and reading glasses, tissues, gum, the items that we really do carry. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
You're welcome! All of that is actually what I carry daily and no one cares what lipstick I have on lol. I have found several new channels and goodness I don't want to see tweezers and every lipstick and floss, it annoys me so much I assume it annoys others as well.
Me too. By the time they do a 10 minute review of every item in their makeup pouch I have forgotten what has already gone in the bag. Thanks Melinda for not subjecting us to that.
I completely agree! And my biggest pet peeves with the YTubers who show every single piece of what they have in their bag is when they have an affiliate link for each piece they are showing! Of course, they show that they carry 5 perfumes and 6 lipsticks - they are selling them! One even said “I don’t know why I am carrying so many of them” and in my mind I was like “I know exactly why, that’s bc you are selling them so the more you show, the more chances someone will find one they like and use your affiliated link to buy it!” I mean seriously, some You Tubers take their viewers for idiots. 🤦♀️ Thank you for keeping it real! ❤️
Great review, Melinda! Really surprised that the Speedy fits more! And thank you for not showing all the items in the pouches, I would always fast forward through all of those nitty gritty items on other videos. Your pacing is great, and always so helpful!
Congratulations on your 7 year anniversary this month on TH-cam! 🎉🎉👏. That’s amazing! Thanks for another informative video and for all your hard work doing these videos ❤️
Just found your video and I love it! Regarding the blue and red stripe, mine has survived 40 years of no stain. My mom gave me my first gucci bag when I was 18 years old and the blue and red stripe runs the entire length of the bag. I would suggest buying an organizer for the gucci because after 40 years, though intact, it looks worn. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Melinda....I just had to tell you that I was recently in Chicago and purchased the Gucci bag you are reviewing, only in the medium size. I was so excited to get it back home and use it, but i was so disappointed when the left side zipper was defective and was terribly hard to zip. I called my SA and she sent me another one right away, and said the zipper was good, it was not. The second one is going back. I think it's a problem with the bag also, when it was completely full with the tissue, the zippers worked a bit better and the top of the bag didn't collapse when you zipped it like it did when I had my things in it. I do not have enough things to fill it to the top. Oh well...my search continues ! :)
Now I want the Gucci O .. I ❤ silver hardware and wish LV would do more silver !!! I wonder if YSl would make holes in my camera bag strap ? It’s not removable and I am 5’1 so I’ve had to create know art in the strap to wear it .. I don’t want to ruin it doing this
Great video! Just subscribed and good luck reaching 30K! I was surprised that the speedy 20 fit a bit more and agree with you that I would have preferred a nicer finish to the silver hardware on the Gucci bag. I was tossing up between this Gucci bag vs the Speefy 20 DE but ended up getting the Gucci for 2 reasons: 1. Price difference (Gucci AUD $2665 vs LV $3350) 2. Leather strap vs crappy canvas strap. I absolutely hate the canvas strap and would just use my Speedy 25 strap instead. Thanks for the tip with the zipper wax, I do find that the zipper on the Gucci is hard to get around the corners so I'll be checking out Amazon right after this!
Thank you so much! I was really surprised too that the LV held both glasses. The wax really helps a lot! Wow that is a much bigger price difference where you live, yikes!
I agree, I was torn between LV and Gucci but after trying on the Gucci bag I decided to buy Gucci instead. I find the LV handle so stiff and the LV speedy 25 that I was trying on doesn’t even have any LV logo just no 21 and it was from the LV boutique in Netherlands. But Gucci gave me the wow factor.
Wonderful comparison of these two beautiful bags. Thanks for sharing your tips with us. 🎉🎉Happy Anniversary to you, and here's to the 30K subbies BEFORE June. THAT'S RIGHT!!!🎉🎉💛 p.s. Girl you've got the figure of a 21 yo. You look Amazing.
I am thinking of buying the mini Gucci Boston bag I prefer the leather strap over the guitar strap from lv and I don’t have to worry about the bag compared to the lv speedy 20 with the vachette
LV should have given you two straps for that bag. Yes the webbing on the Gucci will fuzz up a little. I have a vintage one and also some web belts and there is some minor fuzz.
Melinda you’re always so thorough. I will always go for LV over Gucci, just my preference. 🤷🏻♀️ I am not a guitar strap girl but I have the Speedy B 25. It’s a shame as I love many bags but if they come with a guitar strap it’s a no for me.
Not a fan of the strap either but oddly enough I have both the speedy b 25 & 20 in damier ebene. I use the leather strap from my 25 with the 20 & the guitar strap with the 25 which actually looks pretty good. The strap is just too big for such a small bag but works well with the 25.
Hi, Melinda, I’ve been waiting for this comparison video! I own both of these bags. I have had my Speedy 20 for 18 months or so and I love using it, but like you, I couldn’t stand the guitar strap for many reasons and I sold it within a month of owning it and replaced it with a beautiful soft vachetta strap. Perfect. The Gucci Ophidia mini in navy I picked up two weeks ago. Like you, the SA offered to punch two more holes in my strap. I’m 5’4 and it felt way too short for me. With the extra holes, it’s a bit better, but it still could be a touch longer. I think the downside for me is the stiffness of the Gucci. It doesn’t give much, so I feel like it is sticking out more. The other somewhat uncomfortable thing for me was the offset strap hardware. It moves back and forth. I’m sure I just need to get more used to it. I’m so glad to hear that you like yours. It’s encouraging! There is no returning it after the extra holes punched, right? 😬
I really need to sell that strap, it is awful. I wish the Gucci was longer too, I am 5'6 and the extra holes helped but longer would be better. I think both bags stick out a bit crossbody but they are just too cute. Yep they are ours now lol!
Melinda, you do the best review&comparisons..I love all of your content! Always appreciate your attention to detail… I’ve been laughing over the dog leash type of hook w/Gucci 😂so true, appreciate you pointing out where the strap hooks are and the top handle lengths etc. I wanted to thank you for the zipper lube recommendation!! 👏🏼🙌🏼🫶🏼it really does help with any zipper & saved my daughter & I from a stressful moment as she was getting ready for prom last spring! Lastly, I LOVE YOUR TURQUOISE JEWELRY 😍😎🤩🩵 Take care!
Great comparison video.Both beautiful bags really like the Gucci, the colour and hardware is edgy and looks perfect with your outfit.Stunning jewellery as always 🤍Thanks for sharing and king regards 🎀💕
Thank you for your detailed review. I purchased the original speedy 20 with the unadjustable ugly guitar strap. I am also 5’6 & the strap is too small. I bought a vachetta strap from organize my bag & love it. I bought an extender for the guitar strap but it’s still meh 🫤 I love the speedy 20 but will not buy another, not worth the expense of the hideous guitar strap. I was eyeing the Gucci too, it may fit my casual style better. Thanks for sharing! ❤
Hi Melinda. They’re both adorable. After selling some bags I’m thinking about getting more functional bags now and I started with a small puzzle in sand. The old model so super happy. It’s a good start. I received it a few days ago. Had to jump on it now cuz i don’t like the edge at all. It ruined the bag for me. It’s as good as you said it would be. Now looking for another one. Black and then one in a cute color. Small sizes. But it needs to hold as much as the puzzle.
@@LuxPurselove thank you. after selling some bags in January 2022 it took me a year to figure out what I really wanted and needed. Also I wanted quality and like we all know some brands you’re just not sure what you’re getting anymore. The puzzle is adorable. It was a great choice and your review video back then was one of the best. So if you were to buy a mini bag in a fun color. What would you buy? Just curious. I keep going back to a mini Fendi baguette. Not sure what else is nice and does hold a bit. It must be able to carry things of course.
@@dianeb2349 That is a hard question because I don't like mini bags. The one I have I only use for special occasions or sporting events (YSL mini Lou). I do think the baguette is a cute bag.
@@LuxPurselove ah yes. Mini Lou. I don’t have particularly like them either because I want then to carry enough. A mini bag would be just like a card holder and some small things. Hmmmmm it’s hard. We will see. Maybe I’ll change my mind about mini bags. It took me a year to buy the puzzle. I love it I love it.
Had Speedy 20, but sold it as dealing with vachetta is not worth my time, stress, mood. Vachetta at Louis Vuitton save me so much money as it is so incredibly annoying and the weather in Norway is way too unpredictable to
Thanks Mel for this video. I got the gucci to replace the speedy 20. I have the 25 and am contemplating getting the keepall 35😂 With your review, I am now seriously thinking about the 20…I have several monogram LV ( my fave luxury brand) , so will consider the new season empriente leather ones. Will wait and see if more colors will pop up in the coming months. Have a blessed day! ❤
I was so looking forward to the LV damier ebene Speedy 20 release because of its all weather wear but then it had that hideous guitar strap so it was a nope. I will not pay that kind of money for a bag that I then have to buy something else for to make it work. Also annoyed it cost more than the Speedy B 25. In the end, I’ll probably choose the small Celine Boston bag (bit smaller than the Gucci) as it has a longer strap for crossbody - but I love the blue Gucci supreme with its silver hardware! I also have a LV bag with the pre-patina vachetta which did get a water mark on it. Over time it’s faded but I can still see it. I do think it helps but it’s certainly not like a treated leather. I can be quite protective of vachetta 😬.
I agree the strap just ruins it. I wish I had tried my things in the bag and really walked around with it so I would have known how uncomfortable it feels to me. The Celine one is really cute. They did tell me it wasn't treated leather, good to know for sure!
Thanks so much for a very thorough review! The LV speedy 20 has been something I considered and I’m glad to know more about the strap, don’t think I would care for that…. Maybe 20 years ago 😉 Thanks for the honest opinion.
I would subscribe twice if I could! And the dog leash clip is called a trigger clip. Have you noticed they are now replacing the lovely clip on the Jackie 1961 with this trigger clip? Personally I don't like it. Doesn't feel as luxe as the Jackie is one of their more expensive bags.
I recently bought the Speedy 20 and my first thoughts were:OmG,this is so cute,but WAY TOO TINY.I gave it a chance and I love,love,love that bag!!You can easily throw a 500ml bottle of water inside.Since 2(or3??)years,I only use a Mulberry cardholder and my LV Ronde for change.Add my keys and off she goes❤
Thank you so much for this great review! This is the best review that I have seen so far (and I have watched a lot of them! lol) And thank you for spearing us going through everything in each of your SLG and thank you even more for not listing an affiliated link to each them. I frankly see that as an insult to the viewers at this point. People watch these videos for information and entertainment but when I see the affiliated links for each item; these WIMB are starting to look like infomercials. In any case, thank you for this great review! New subscriber here. ☺️💕
@@rosannagomez8040 Don't get mad at me, but I think it looks like a garbage bag with CHANEL stamped on the front. I truly don't think it would have ever become popular without the Chanel name. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course!
@@LuxPurselove lol. I wouldn’t get mad. I’m just making sure I like it. I hated it at first and thought it looked like a garbage bag but it has grown on me. I’m asking the opinion of my favorite content creators to make sure I think this thru and am not being Influenced. Thanks so much!!!!
Thanks for sharing, Melinda. For the Gucci one, i guess because of the leather lining on the zip area that makes it a bit stiff as compared to the LV one that do not have any leather on the zip and canvas will be softer, if that make sense. Also, for the Gucci one, since it has leather on the zip trim, i am afraid as you used it, hopefully the leather will not peel if you use it a lot i mean. Overall i think Gucci one is steadier since they have leather trim all over and thus fit lesser. Yes the vachetta that i dont like but if i were to get (which i am so tempted) i will get the Ebene one and yes i do not like the strap too. i will not use the strap too 🤗😍
I love the guitar strap makes the bag feel more young and edgy. Breaks the rules a bitt. While everyone going with ubber elegant bags trying to be kate Middleton or blair waldorf. This speedy 20 with guitar strap make us embrace our inner Serena or Giselle Bunchen in her jeans with that efforless perfect wavy hair. Girls lets embrace casual chick and forget the kate Middleton look or succesion look. Lets go back the more relaxed Sex and the city Carrey or Gossip girl Serena. We dont need to be princessey all the time

The Gucci looks more classy. I would pick Gucci.

Thanks so much!
Congratulations on 7 years 🎉. Great video. Have you considered the Celine Small Boston? - same type style.

I think it’s called the Gucci mini shoulder bag

People watch these videos for information and entertainment but when I see the affiliated links for each item; these WIMB are starting to look like infomercials. In any case, thank you for this great review! New subscriber here. ☺️💕
So glad you liked it! I personally hate seeing what lip color people have in there slgs lol so I don't show it. Thanks!
Beautiful bags and great comparisons ❤😊
Thank you! 🤗
@@LuxPurselove your welcome
Can you share your thoughts on the Chanel 22? It’s had gotten to me and I want to get it.
I don't care for that one at all. But if it makes you happy go for it! :)
Would love your feedback on why you don’t like it. I tend to love your choices
@@rosannagomez8040 Don't get mad at me, but I think it looks like a garbage bag with CHANEL stamped on the front. I truly don't think it would have ever become popular without the Chanel name. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course!
@@LuxPurselove lol. I wouldn’t get mad. I’m just making sure I like it. I hated it at first and thought it looked like a garbage bag but it has grown on me. I’m asking the opinion of my favorite content creators to make sure I think this thru and am not being Influenced. Thanks so much!!!!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
I choose Gucci. I had the LV but sold it, I’m more drawn to the styling of Gucci 😊
I really like the Gucci style too. :)
Thanks for sharing, Melinda. For the Gucci one, i guess because of the leather lining on the zip area that makes it a bit stiff as compared to the LV one that do not have any leather on the zip and canvas will be softer, if that make sense. Also, for the Gucci one, since it has leather on the zip trim, i am afraid as you used it, hopefully the leather will not peel if you use it a lot i mean. Overall i think Gucci one is steadier since they have leather trim all over and thus fit lesser. Yes the vachetta that i dont like but if i were to get (which i am so tempted) i will get the Ebene one and yes i do not like the strap too. i will not use the strap too 🤗😍
Thanks for sharing!!
Do you carry the Speedy 20 or Gucci Boston the most?
I don't use either very much but I prefer the Gucci.
I also hate that strap on my Speedy 20… never use it
Love the Gucci.
is it the mini or small gucci
Read the title of the video hon :)
Like it very much
Hi Melinda, Hello from Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭Just subscribed and hope it helps. Happy 7th year anniversary! 🥂
Thank you so much!!
The Gucci definitely looks more classy 👍🏻
I much prefer the Gucci bag. The navy and red is so luxurious looking, while the speedy is so not.
I agree!
Louis looks better. Something about Gucci doesn’t look Luxury…IMO
I think the Gucci looks way more luxurious. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder! :)
LV looks cuter imo.
speedy looks bigger.
It depends on the angle, sometimes I think it looks bigger but usually I think the Gucci does. They are super close though!
It feels bigger to me because it’s softer. The Gucci is stiff, but definitely more durable!
I love the guitar strap makes the bag feel more young and edgy.
Breaks the rules a bitt. While everyone going with ubber elegant bags trying to be kate Middleton or blair waldorf.
This speedy 20 with guitar strap make us embrace our inner Serena or Giselle Bunchen in her jeans with that efforless perfect wavy hair.
Girls lets embrace casual chick and forget the kate Middleton look or succesion look.
Lets go back the more relaxed Sex and the city Carrey or Gossip girl Serena.
We dont need to be princessey all the time
Hate the guitar straps, so impractical and in my opinion, ugly.
Both are boring.
Thanks for watching!
Such a great informative video,thank you for breaking it all down for us,🪻🌺❤️
