I couldn't use any other handbags after discovering Defea. I just love that it can hold so much stuff and yet does not feels too heavy. And the multiple compartments is just pure win. 👍
OMG I am sooooooooo excited for you. What kind did you get? What color? Oh my goodness I’m full of questions lol. I hope you do a video on it😁 Kipling’s are great lightweight bags super good for summer.💜
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess thanks! I got the Abanu Medium Crossbody in Blue Eclipse and the Alber Mini Convertible Backpack in Floral Rush. I’ve been watching videos and doing research for days trying to decide what to get. There’s so much to choose from! I definitely want a Defea but I’m waiting to find a good deal on a color/print that I like. Your video was very helpful :) 💜
I hope you do a video on them💜 I know Kipling is having a sale or at least they did the other day online but they didn’t have anything I wanted in the color I wanted. I hope you enjoy your bags.
That's a lovely purple colour. Does anyone else love the sound of Kipling? Especially new ones. I have been a Kipling collector since about 2005. Every now and again I have a clear out of them and sell them on to friends etc. I've just had my latest clear out. 😁
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess I really lucked out that day. I was on a mission to find some. I got the Tracey, Karla and the Eylise. All three came out to maybe $118.00. I’m so proud of myself. 😂🥳
I love the color!!! I think I need to order a Kipling, I had the creativity pouch and I liked it but sold it because I just couldn’t find a way to use it in my Vera’s! Great video!!💜💜🌻
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess I just filmed the Kipling haul that includes my Defea and I totally brainfarted on your name when I was alibi-ing where I got the idea about that bag. Sorry about that. I included a shout out to you in the remarks. I really do like this bag a lot and wish I could've found one in that gorgeous purple like the one you shared. Thanks again!!
Oh my gosh, I love the color of this defea!!! You can easily go on Amazon and buy a fun replacement strap or use a pretty Vera strap! Thanks for sharing! I may have to dig a few more of my kiplings out once I get settled!
I have just recently gotten into Kipling bags. I have a few now & love them. I’m in Canada so they aren’t as easy to get here unless you live in a big city maybe. I would really like to have the Defea, it looks like such a nice bag. I love the colour of yours. So pretty. 💜 Thanks for all your bag reviews. Love watching your videos. 💖 By the way, do you machine wash your Kipling bags? 😀
Thank you so much💜 I machine wash them on gentle cycle. The Defea is such a great bag one of my favorites. I hope you can get your hands on one. Do you get Mercari, poshmark, and eBay where you live?
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess Yes, I have found a few on Poshmark here. I could get them from eBay also but shipping to Canada is quite expensive. When you machine wash your Kipling bags do you use laundry detergent only or softener also? I really don’t want to ruin my Kipling bags. :)
I make my own laundry soap so you may want to use mild detergent and hand wash if you don’t have a delicate cycle. I do not use fabric softener and I hang to dry or you can lay flat to dry. I kind of reshape it and hang it from a hanger.
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess thanks so much for your recommendations on washing the Kipling bags. 💜 Looking forward to your next video. 🤗 Have a great day. Stay safe. 💖
They are great bags and I think they would be a great work bag for you, different pockets for your work badge, keys ect.. your TjMaxx probably has them where as ours has absolutely nothing 😟
Yes I brought your Defa one in purple and I love it. It was one of my first kipling bags. Now I have quite a few. Thank you for starting me on my kipling journey 😊
TFS! Love Kipling too, you made me move into my ‘Nitany’ crossbody, same colour as yours. Think the Nitany model is named differently in the States? Have a great day 👋🏼🇳🇿❤️
I love the zippers on Kipling bags, I wish Vera would use them more often.
I couldn't use any other handbags after discovering Defea. I just love that it can hold so much stuff and yet does not feels too heavy. And the multiple compartments is just pure win. 👍
I love it! I want to start collecting Kipling. I haven’t tried this style. I love all of the pockets.
Kipling is super great and you will love the Defea it’s amazing💜
I love this bag! I have my first Kipling items coming this week. I can’t wait to try them out. Great video 💜

When you have your next clean out please shoot me a message I would love to see what you have💜
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess yes will do x
Love the storage Kipling bags offer. I’ve been looking at this bag. I got 3 Kipling bags for $100 at TJMAX recently. They are so durable.
What! $1.00????? OMG that is an awesome deal!!!! Every time I go to my TjMaxx they have absolutely NOTHING! I think we have thee worst one around.

@@kash7585 lucky!
Pretty bag! I have a Kipling similar to that one in gold I haven’t used yet. I might need one of those wallets in my life! Thanks for sharing!!!!!
Oh goodness that wallet is so super great! I would like to get more💜
So pretty and organized 💜
Love the color of your Defea 💜
Thank you💜
I love the color!!! I think I need to order a Kipling, I had the creativity pouch and I liked it but sold it because I just couldn’t find a way to use it in my Vera’s! Great video!!💜💜🌻
The color is super great, even better in person. I hope you snag one up and do a video on it I would love to see it👍🏻💜
Beautiful bag 💜💜💜
Thank you and Thank you for watching💜
Oh love your “lip clip” ! 💕
Thank you, I actually made that one myself 💜
I like that bag. It seems quite similar to the new Lug Jumper 👍 I went and ordered one in the Kipling Sale 😃
I don’t own the lug jumper YET! Do you own it? Have you done a video on it?
Yes, just got it (2 of them actually) th-cam.com/video/xlogHotzGz4/w-d-xo.html

I would love to see your Kipling’s 👍🏻 I do have several other straps I could use, I will have to go through them💜
I love kipling bags as well. But have to order from overseas as we can't get them in NZ.
Are you able to order off Mercari or Poshmark?
Kaye, I’m in NZ too👋🏻. Managed to get a couple from Strandbags on sale (shipped from Aussie) they don’t have any ATM though

I use to have a couple of these Defea bags. I sold mine cause they were too big. But now I want one foe work

Thank you for watching. What is the name of your color because I don’t know the exact name of mine.
@@GratefullyBlessedInMyMess my tag says Plum, unless there’s different shades of purple for Kipling?
Thank you💜
Very nice bag, so roomy!
It sure is. Kipling’s are such nice bags💜
