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.
Exactly! 😂
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.
Amen😂
I agree, I like that Gucci top handle SO MUCH better. It looks much classier 😊
I have loved watching your content over the years. Your videos are always informative for all handbag lovers. Thanks for sharing.❤
Awe thank you so very much!
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 ❤️
Thanks so much! Xoxo
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!
Glad it was helpful! That annoys me so much and not only do they show what is in the pouches I get to hear the brand of their bandaids, floss etc lol.
Thanks for the thorough compare and contrast! ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome comparison. Even though I’m speedy fan but I do Love this Gucci bag a lot. Thank you so much for sharing. Have a great weekend Melinda 💕
Thanks so much Irene! Have a great weekend too! Xoxo

My apologies Melinda , should have said “ Kind Regards “ ❤xx
Thank you so much! Have a great weekend! Xoxo
Very useful comparison video 📼📼📼 of yours Dear Melinda, which I truly enjoyed 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️😁😁😁
Thank you so much!
@@LuxPurselove 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰✨✨✨✨💋💋💋💋😍😍😍😍
Nice comparison video..eyeing the speedy 20and the bigger Gucci Boston bag
Congratulations on 7 years 🎉. Great video. Have you considered the Celine Small Boston? - same type style.
Thank you! No, because it is brown and too close to the LV to me.
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!
Beautiful bags and great comparisons ❤😊
Thank you! 🤗
@@LuxPurselove your welcome
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.
Glad it was helpful!
LUVVVV this Gucci
Especially the blue & the SHW. You already know I'm a fan of this size. TFS ❤❤
I am loving the blue, it is so different from LV brown. Thanks Mari! Xoxo
Both are super cute. But I really like the Gucci on you! Great comparison! 🤎🤎🤎
Thank you Kim! Xoxo
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 love my Keepall 35! The empriente speedy 20 is fabulous! Thank you and have a blessed day as well! Xoxo
Subscribed❤I hope you will hit the 30.000!Great bags❤Greetings from Germany❤
Thank you so much!!
Thanks for the thorough comparison. I’m team Gucci. I’m actually thinking about ordering the next size up, the small.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Melinda, love the bags! I just got the LV speedy 30 damier ebene! I'm obsessed ❤
That's awesome! Congrats!
Love your Gucci bag! I only have 2 Guccis. I am more drawn to LV, but that Gucci bag is calling to me! 😊
It's a cutie!
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!
Love the Gucci over the LV. Great video 🎉. I have two Gucci bags, I will definitely consider getting Boston’s bag in navy.
Glad it was helpful! I think the navy is so cute.
I got the navy and absolutely love it!!!
I'm eyeing the speedy in damier ebene, but will purchase the adjustable brown strap from the website. Can't deal with the guitar strap at all!
hey I can't remember but do you have a black or pink capucines bb? If so, you might try your guitar strap with it! I love my strap with that bag.
I do have one, I need to try the strap with it. :)
I don’t see the Gucci bag on their website. Is it a different name or did they discontinue ?
I love the speedy 20! Planning to buy one for my 30th birthday next month. Have you heard rumors if any price increases are coming up for Lv?
Happy early birthday! I haven't heard anything about a price increase.
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
If they won't do it a local cobbler will! :)
Such a great informative video,thank you for breaking it all down for us,🪻🌺❤️
Thank you!
I’m considering both but leaning towards the Gucci mini. I saw the price went up to $1850 now vs $1790 😢
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 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! ❤
I totally agree it just is not worth it unless they change that awful strap. Thanks for watching!
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.
I really would have preferred a strap just like the other Speedy's. I figured it would fuzz a bit.
Do you prefer the speedy 20 over the 25?
I love the speedy 20. Which one do you like more monogram or damierbene?
The monogram, I really think the strap that comes with the DE is the wrong color for the bag.
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.
I'm not a fan of the guitar strap either. I do have the speedy 20 on DE and use a LV DE strap with it which I like much better!
@llnut477 I totally get that! I will never buy another bag that comes with a guitar strap.
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.
@@HandbagDivaI do have other straps that I can use as well. For me it just needs to work out or the box at these prices.
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.
I am so glad you found one! And that you love it! I agree the puzzle holds the perfect amount. Have fun looking for your next one!
@@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.
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!!
I like your jeans in the video. What is the brand? Seems it’s getting difficult to find jeans that have a nice fit on me.
They are these from AE: Pull on boot cut jean: go.magik.ly/ml/20txx/
Hi Melinda, Hello from Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭Just subscribed and hope it helps. Happy 7th year anniversary! 🥂
Thank you so much!!
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
It is such a better bag IMO. That guitar strap just ruins the LV.
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!!!!
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!
where as i love gucci, i like the lv more in this type style.
It's pretty!
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. :)
is it the mini or small gucci
Read the title of the video hon :)
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.
Awe thank you! No, I didn't notice that but I do agree it is not a luxe looking or feeling clip at all!
I also hate that strap on my Speedy 20… never use it
The Gucci definitely looks more classy 👍🏻
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! :)
I much prefer the Gucci bag. The navy and red is so luxurious looking, while the speedy is so not.
I agree!
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!
Hate the guitar straps, so impractical and in my opinion, ugly.
Both are boring.
Thanks for watching!
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
