If one has $745 and would like to spend it at Louis Vuitton, I would definitely recommend the Kirigami. It's such a good value because the two bigger pouches can easily be used as alternatives to the Pochette Accessoires and the Mini Pochette with a relatively affordable conversion kit. Also, for anyone who is curious, an iPhone 13 Mini does fit into the Mini Pochette.
Wow, I didn’t realize how much LV charges for the mini pochette. I bought mine in 2014 for $300. I wouldn’t repurchase today because I don’t believe it’s worth it.
Finally managed to get my hands on it earlier this year through the LV website and when it arrived, I could not believe how cheap and flimsy it felt! Returned immediately. The Kirigami set, on the other hand, is well worth it.
So pretty. I thing if I didn’t own any LV and I started my collection today I may consider to get it. Also if I didn’t know anything about the prices consider too. Happy Saturday babe😊 Is hard to think another items for a different brand if the dream brand is to get the first LV item.
It’s so true!! It would be better not knowing about the increases because then there isn’t much to compare to with! I agree, if someone is starting their collection now and really wants this piece, I say, go for it! To each their own.
Love your videos! I just started my luxury collection journey and it makes me sooo upset to learn how much these SLGs used to cost! As you said, “What am I? An idiot?” That’s how I feel whenever I make a purchase compared to what people paid years ago 😂 I have purchased the mono and DE mini pochettes preloved in new/very good conditions and yesterday, got my hands on the PA from the LV website! These are the LV classics so I HAD to have them regardless of the price. I agree they are indeed expensive for what you’re getting but having barely started my collection, I felt I had to have them! I’m just bummed I’m “late” to all of this! Keep up the amazing work with your videos 🥰
Don’t feel that way. I’m glad you started your collection today than after everything is gonna cost more and you gonna be so happy to own them now than later trust me🤗
I started late too just last year2021 when prices soared way more than usual and items were hard to find but since I wanted to get it from the store so I can have it on my record than buying second hand, I paid the present price. I was looking a the classics since 2011 but couldn't afford it back then, somehow last year I was able to start a small collection. If you love it don't compare to the old price it will rob you the joy of owning one 😉. It will just get more expensive from here on so the present price is the cheapest you can get unless you get 2nd hand.
There isnt any reason than being huge LV fan to justify spending that money for little pouch. I remember the time when Alma bb was 650€. Definitely YSL option is more appealing and the variety of colours are very nice too. Also really like the Mulberry version. Never really considered UK brands such an Aspinal of London or Mulberry but made me think about more. Maybe pay a visit one day while in London. Very eye catching little piece. Thank you for the video!
Love the Chanel mini O case. Eva clutch used to be $775 and Pochette accessoires was $500. Now mini pochette price is almost equal to the Eva clutch that has a chain and crossbody vachetta strap. Maybe this unreasonable price increase is on purpose, it’s working since nobody wants to buy it anymore.
I bought the kirigami set instead of the mini pochette. The medium one is my catch all instead and is about the same size. 3 for the price of 1. Who can beat that?! The Mulberry WOC is so beautiful! Love that it doesn't have huge branding like the YSL one. Plus it's more unique. Definitely buy it the next time you're in London! I'm getting burnt out of seeing Channel, Dior, Hermes, LV. I'm loving Tod's because no one wears it in the US, and they have buttery soft leather and amazing colors like Hermes!
This comparison just reassured me I don’t need that LV piece 🤦🏻♀️ I can’t believe the price now!! Ended up picking one up this weekend in the leopard print!
Honestly, I’m quite pleased with my $75 Coach Wristlet (that I got for $37.50). It holds everything I need and the strap is removable. I also love the feel of the leather since it’s from the Coach boutique. I originally ordered the Nolita 15 from the outlet but was not impressed. I can understand now why people don’t care for outlet items. Plus it didn’t hold as much as I expected it to.
Coach is where it's at, indeed!! I have recently purchased some gorgeous, leather wristlets, saddle bags, tote bags, and satchels for a mere fraction of the cost of LV, YSL, Chanel, Gucci, Fendi, Balenciaga...and the last goes on! Great value for my money!! Especially during these high inflation times. People need to hold on to their money!
I just purchased the Celine coin and card pouch as a bday present to myself after waffling between that one and the Mini Pochette. I love the Celine pouch! It feels so well made, I love the print, and I love the slim profile. I’ve been obsessing over the Chanel mini o case for too long, it’s so cute and functional!
I bought the mini pochette right before one of the increases, when it was about $360 plus tax. I felt that was even too much! The Rothy’s pouch is an interesting find …. Might have to look into that one!! Looks heavy duty. Thanks!
I love my dark beige YSL clutch and would love another one before their next price increase. Looks like it’s time for me to get that Chanel mini O case!
I have a cream coach pochette that I use inside my bags, usually I use tory burch and coach slgs. I'm so over paying alot of money for slgs. I like mulberry and it's on my hit list for a bag. But on a no buy again for bags,fragrance, shoes,hats, glasses. I want to see how much money I can save in 30 days.
My first Louis Vuitton purchase was nearly $3000 in SLGs, tax included. I asked if they had the SpeedyB 25 or 30 in Monogram but they did not. So I bought all of the SLGs I could get my hands on in store. Included in all that was the mini Pochette in black bicolor emprient. Roughly $745 tax included. That was August of last year. My SA almost talked me into a Papillon bag charm. It was over $700. No thanks. A couple of months later I bought a 2020 Christmas Animation mini Pochette new/giftable from Fashionphile. Thought I hit the jackpot since I only paid about $625 with tax. I’ve gotten most of my LV wish list items either from the boutique or preloved. I would like some Chanel but I think I’m priced out. I’m on the lookout for preloved but I’m not obsessed which tells me I don’t really need it. I think I’m done with buying for now but I live vicariously through TH-cam videos.
Before u know it, this little cutie will be over $1k, so Yes... Get this piece NOW if you can. It is a beautiful piece and I bought it in all canvas prints for $310 and they have held up beautifully. I told a SA that the piece was so inexpensive for what the piece looked like. At the time, it looked about $750. YSL and the other brand you showed are nice, but it will never hold the resale value of a LV Mini Pochette If u buy the mini Pochette, you want to sell down the road, you'll most likely get all of your money back, close to it or more Whenever you buy YSL (which I've purchased a lot of) immediately depreciates in value the moment you walk out the store The mini Pochette is better than all of the other items. It's important to think if you ever may sell one day..bc if you do, you'll probably get 20-40% of what you paid... In comparison to the beautiful LV mini Pochette.. Which will never depreciate in value I feel the $745 price is on point! Get it before it goes up and up and up! You'll be getting a great deal now and you can rest assured that it will maintain its value ❤️
Check out the Coach Nolita which I purchased as alternatives. I bought 2 Nolita 19 which cost $80-90 at the time I bought and 1 Nolita 15 in Woodbury Coach outlet. I think they’re great!
I cannot believe the price increases on the mini pochette, especially whilst many other popular wallets/cardholders have had only minor increases. I bought my mini pochette for £195 and even then I dithered about it for a couple of years before buying! 😅
I love my coach nolita 19, I have had mine for several years so it is the older style before they tried adding the LV style strap. I can use the chain on the bag as a wristlet, as a strap for over the arm, or tuck it inside for a clutch. I have a long faux leather strap I use to carry it crossbody as well as a shoulder strap chain from Amazon to carry as a dressy shoulder bag. My moto stylus 5G phone does fit inside. Currently on sale for $95-$130, I think the top price now is around $220. I paid $125 for mine and it has definitely been worth it.
the price increases have been such a shock to us luxury lovers, but LVs price increases have seemed especially drastic! I used to love LV because the price point was relatively lower and the coated canvas is so carefree, *but* i definitely couldn't imagine choosing a canvas piece when comparable brands have leather goods for similar (or lower!!) prices!!
Thank you for doing this review! 👏 My husband gifted me the LV PM and I been eyeing the LV mini but honestly it’s gone to far in price. I loved that you showed us the Chanel mini for several hundred dollars less. I am loving the idea of subbing the LV w Chanel mini. Is Chanel mini offered in other colors that go well with LV monogram?? I’m def interested in the Chanel mini. Thanks so much 💗💕
Now we need to support second hand market we can choose some ting conditions good luxury bags or very can buy lower price bags also can n thanks Hannah sharing us information
I paid about $300 gently used. I bought it because I saw it on every YT and really wanted it in my collection. I was shocked at how small it was and how little it can hold. I didn't use it for like 6 months. But now I use it as a mini catchall and if I need to run into the gas station or want to use a small bag like thr LV favorite I use it as a wallet. I love it now but couldn't imagine paying that much for one.
This was a fantastic list - I have the ysl clutch in classic black and I love it so much!! Definitely have my eye on the mulberry woc in oxblood now 😊 I was wondering if you’ve heard of the brand Nisolo? I love their shoes and leather goods and just purchased their new ‘carry-all handwoven satchel’ - $295 for a full-grain leather bag with a weave pattern similar to bottega! I would love to know your thoughts as I feel you’d really like the brand.
Like 600 great sharing. It’s odd how lv can raise price to Whatever ppl Will Still but. I’m Wanting the lv pouchette. I prolly will Cave and get it. Price will Never come down . Thanks
Wow, as someone who has never been very invested in LV, the price of the pochette really surprises me. Personally, i think what you paid for is the max something of that size, quality, and function is worth.
I purchased the same mini DE pochette in Feb of 2018 for $310 as well. After the pandemic, everything went crazy 🙄😩 I have it in the monogram and Damier Azur as well. Both purchased at $310 each and basically brand new. Maybe I should get insurance for all of them. Lol 😂
It's easy to say that it's not worth $745 when you have already have it. Although there are alternatives, there isn't a SLG that matches the MP. The closest thing is the Coach Nolita 15...it has the same basic shape, however it's leather. That may sound like a good thing but the leather isn't as pliable, therefore it can't hold as much as the canvas MP. It's also heavier to carry in a purse. I purchased a leather MP last year, but ended up returning it for the reasons I stated above. It just doesn't compare to my canvas MPs. Also, given the MP has a wider base, it just holds more than the average pouch. Of all my SLGs, the MP is the onething I ALWAYS carry in my bag. I think everyone's best bet is to try to purchase it on the pre-love market. Although those prices are getting higher, it's still not anywhere near $745.
I’m pretty sure I never said that it wasn’t worth it. I always say worth is subjective and when it comes to these luxury items. It’s worth whatever it’s worth to you - if you find it’s a good value for the purpose it serves, then great! I stated that I really enjoy my mini pochette. My point was that I probably would use the $745 to buy something else if I were given the option to buy it all over again at the current price. Seems like you would agree given you’re touting the Preloved market.
@@hellocatwalkcityThanks for your response. I definitely agree that it's priced way too high. And I appreciate that you're trying to help others find alternatives. I'm only trying to point out that it's still a pretty unique SLG and pre-love may be the way to go to avoid the boutique price. Some were lucky to have gotten it b4 the major price hike. It's just really unfortunate for individuals just entering this market.
I purchased the Ysl wristlet and when it came in I was surprised at the size I thought it was going to be itty bitty! It’s beautiful and it’s lightweight!
This is the first video of yours that I have seen and I really enjoyed it. I would recommend Coach Nolita19 it is like a mini purse and a catchall I also have a Nolita 15 as well
Aw thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! So funny! I literally just posted about the sale going on for the Coach Nolita 19 pouches today!!! I have them up on my community page. 😉
That’s right! I did a comparison review here - th-cam.com/video/1HaAuQC55FY/w-d-xo.html The only reason I didn’t include it in this video is because I’ve talked about the Nolita before! Great value. 👍
I had an order in last year for the MPA but they cancelled it a few days later *bright smile* Amazingly, there seems plenty of stock, but I am not prepared to pay the new price. In the meantime I went for an Anya Hindmarch pouch in nylon with leather trim as my catch all: super durable and squishes into bags no problem.
This might be a hot take, but I’d rather buy this item for $745 online immediately, versus having to spend hours hunting the website because it was always out of stock at the cheaper price.
Yeah, no. Sorry, it is a little absurd to lay 700 and change, even if you can afford it. I don't feel it is just luxury anymore. It is just not worth that price. Love luxury , and I love my pieces. A good alternative is the coach Julianne ( from retail) it is very classy, and made from crossgrain leather. 75 usd , and it often goes on 25 % off.
@@hellocatwalkcity Yes it is! Super nice. I feel that some bags are really underrated in terms of design and craftsmanship. And tbh, I’d rather buy bags without the screaming logo.😁 I like the subtle but well made ones. Just my opinion. 😊 I’ve been watching your vlogs even way back when you were reviewing the Cassie Coach bag.😊
Glad I picked mine up in Paris this June for $522 USD, after tax refund and exchange rate...I will have check out Mulberry in London, going to be there mid October, thanks for the info
If one has $745 and would like to spend it at Louis Vuitton, I would definitely recommend the Kirigami. It's such a good value because the two bigger pouches can easily be used as alternatives to the Pochette Accessoires and the Mini Pochette with a relatively affordable conversion kit. Also, for anyone who is curious, an iPhone 13 Mini does fit into the Mini Pochette.
To think the Kirigami set of 3 pouches is the same price as the 1 mini pochette! I have a comparison video coming soon!!
Enjoyed the video. I have a mini Pochette and definitely would not spend over $700 for it now. All of your alternatives were great.
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed the video!
Wow, I didn’t realize how much LV charges for the mini pochette. I bought mine in 2014 for $300. I wouldn’t repurchase today because I don’t believe it’s worth it.
Now the key pouch is Over $300
Finally managed to get my hands on it earlier this year through the LV website and when it arrived, I could not believe how cheap and flimsy it felt! Returned immediately.
The Kirigami set, on the other hand, is well worth it.
Ooh!! I have a comparison of the mini pochette vs Kirigami set coming next!!
That price is insane. I‘ll probably look into the second hand instead. Great alternative ideas. They’re all cute. TFS 💕
So pretty.
I thing if I didn’t own any LV and I started my collection today I may consider to get it.
Also if I didn’t know anything about the prices consider too.
Happy Saturday babe😊
Is hard to think another items for a different brand if the dream brand is to get the first LV item.

Finally- sense prevails
Thank You for showing us alternatives rather then the same old thing
I’ve shared a few videos focusing on affordable alternatives to popular designer items. I think you would enjoy them! 😊
The Rothy's is a very good tip. My favourite.

@@hellocatwalkcity Probably play it safe and just go with black.
I have a cream coach pochette that I use inside my bags, usually I use tory burch and coach slgs. I'm so over paying alot of money for slgs.
I like mulberry and it's on my hit list for a bag. But on a no buy again for bags,fragrance, shoes,hats, glasses.

My point was that I probably would use the $745 to buy something else if I were given the option to buy it all over again at the current price. Seems like you would agree given you’re touting the Preloved market.
@@hellocatwalkcityThanks for your response. I definitely agree that it's priced way too high. And I appreciate that you're trying to help others find alternatives. I'm only trying to point out that it's still a pretty unique SLG and pre-love may be the way to go to avoid the boutique price. Some were lucky to have gotten it b4 the major price hike. It's just really unfortunate for individuals just entering this market.
Amazing the fabulous items you can get for the price if the LV pouch
Do you have any info on the conversion kit for the YSL clutch? Thanks!
I believe Samorga makes one!
Love that YSL bag and price you mentioned! …butttt it’s pulling up as $1,050 for me?? 😭 Did they have an increase or something?
Ummm…. That’s weird!! 😳
Thank you for always informing!
I purchased the Ysl wristlet and when it came in I was surprised at the size I thought it was going to be itty bitty! It’s beautiful and it’s lightweight!
Such a great size! Hope you’re enjoying yours!
I have the mono from 2012. Paid $280+tax. I am shocked at the current price.
Great recommendations!!!!!
I think if you really wanted the Mini Pochette just get it bec alternatives will only scratch the itch😉.
That is a GREAT point.
I got this when it was around $435ish (I can’t remember exactly). I cannot imaging spending this much on such a tiny piece
Will you review the Rothy shoes ?
My Rothy’s shoes are old and worn lol but they’re very comfy and easy to maintain. Maybe I will do a review at some point. My daughter loves them too!
Great alternatives but, from a investment point of view, I feel that Louis Vuitton will always increase in value if purchase the right pieces.
i’m mind blown for this ridiculous price…I’m glad i got mine few years ago but I would rather get me a nice designer shoes or dress for that price
Enjoyed this video thank you
This is the first video of yours that I have seen and I really enjoyed it. I would recommend Coach Nolita19 it is like a mini purse and a catchall I also have a Nolita 15 as well
Aw thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! So funny! I literally just posted about the sale going on for the Coach Nolita 19 pouches today!!! I have them up on my community page. 😉
Wow I bought it many years ago and I think I paid 300 dollars around there. I would not pay $745 now.
745.00 is excessive… I got the Coach Nolita 15 on eBay for 75.00!
I bought mine for 200 euro in LV few years ago and I thought it was overpriced then 😂
Right! I remember buying mine at $310 and thinking, what am I doing? 😂
I remember buying this for 275$ years ago😆
Great video
The Coach Nolita 15 is almost identical to the mini pochette for a fraction of the cost.
That’s right! I did a comparison review here - th-cam.com/video/1HaAuQC55FY/w-d-xo.html The only reason I didn’t include it in this video is because I’ve talked about the Nolita before! Great value. 👍
I had an order in last year for the MPA but they cancelled it a few days later *bright smile* Amazingly, there seems plenty of stock, but I am not prepared to pay the new price. In the meantime I went for an Anya Hindmarch pouch in nylon with leather trim as my catch all: super durable and squishes into bags no problem.
Have you read Anya Hindmarch’s book titled “If In Doubt, Wash Your Hair?” I highly recommend it! Such a good read.
@@hellocatwalkcity I’ve not but it’s on my list!
This might be a hot take, but I’d rather buy this item for $745 online immediately, versus having to spend hours hunting the website because it was always out of stock at the cheaper price.
Interesting way of looking at it!
Yeah, no. Sorry, it is a little absurd to lay 700 and change, even if you can afford it. I don't feel it is just luxury anymore. It is just not worth that price.
Love luxury , and I love my pieces.
A good alternative is the coach Julianne ( from retail) it is very classy, and made from crossgrain leather. 75 usd , and it often goes on 25 % off.
The Pochette is overpriced imo. The Mulberry bag is sooo pretty. 😍
The Mulberry, right?? 💕
@@hellocatwalkcity Yes it is! Super nice. I feel that some bags are really underrated in terms of design and craftsmanship. And tbh, I’d rather buy bags without the screaming logo.😁 I like the subtle but well made ones. Just my opinion. 😊 I’ve been watching your vlogs even way back when you were reviewing the Cassie Coach bag.😊
Glad I picked mine up in Paris this June for $522 USD, after tax refund and exchange rate...I will have check out Mulberry in London, going to be there mid October, thanks for the info
We’ll be in London at the same time! 😉
For $745 you can purchase a bucket pochette 2nd hand and it fits a phone. Mini pochette have never been worth the money to me.
hard to believe that is now $700+ ☹️!
Canvas SLG? Sounds like an oxymoron lols
