As a guy I can’t believe I’m making a comment about bags. With Valentine’s Day coming up, I really thought about MCM for the wife, but I might consider the Teddy Blake brand now. And their color options are great. And yes, the bottom peg is a must. Without it, I think it's a cost-saving for the company. You always make any item a great video. I can't wait to see the Splash Mountain water review, lol.
Buy the MCM, it will be much more impactful. Teddy Blake is not a well known brand, doesn’t have the wow factor. It’s a bag you’d buy if she specifically asks for it.
Deni, I LOVE that this company reached out to you and offered a comped handbag! Congratulations! I like to carry bags that are luxury leather, in colors: pink, purple, yellow, etc. And, I LOVE a structured satchel! I followed your link, and they have my pink leather tailored satchels! I never heard of them, but I'm definitely going to purchase! Thank you for sharing your review! 💜
Deni, Hi!! Thank you for your wonderfully honest review. I really appreciate how multi-talented you are to be able to discuss a myriad of topics!! About handbags. Leather has become too heavy for my shoulders. Thank goodness I have discovered an awesome Vera Bradley Outlet in Wesley Chapel, Florida!!!! I now have quite the collection of Disney prints in many comfortable and affordable styles!! Enjoy your new bag and keep these delightful videos coming!!
I just purchased the GiGi from Teddy Blake in light pink and the first thing I noticed was the fact that it did not have feet on the bottom I take very good care of my bags and I never put them on the floor but I do like to have feet on the bottom! But this bag is Beautiful the leather is unbelievable I really love everything about it. The interior is so luscious and it has the shoulder strap. I am sure I will purchase another one I have a light blue small one that looks like the Hermes Kelly bag and I love it too Thank you for the review and thank you Teddy Blake!!
That’s wonderful, Jane! I’m so glad that you love their bags! We definitely do need those feet lol. If you decide to purchase another one, be sure to use TBDENI30 to save $30… saving money is definitely a good thing❤️
Deni, great review! You slayed the handbag review! You really can do anything. I’m so happy that you are able to enjoy a great quality bag with no cost to you. That bag, by all means, should have feet! I personally, have not carried a leather bag in years, due to the heavy weight. I have been using my Longchamp Le Pliage as my only bag for years. It’s nylon, stylish and reasonably priced. I have it in a few colors and sizes.
You are so kind, Pamela! Thank you for the sweet words, and thank you for watching. I hear you about leather bags...they are definitely heavier. I'll be looking into your Longchamp one because I'm always on the hunt for a new bag! ❤
It’s a beautiful color and looks well made, but besides missing the feet, I like additional slide pockets inside the bag for additional organization. Hate rummaging around in the bottom of a bag trying to find a pen or my phone. Great review.
Deni, From a distance it looks a great "big" handbag. It will hold a lot of stuff. I bet, phones, sunglasses,key's, wallet will still fall to the bottom of the bag never to be seen again. Can't wait to see you try out your new 6'' heel's, Jimmy Choo's to match. Cheers, Chris Perry. P.S. I've now noticed there's a whole lot of people doing Teddy Blake unsponsored reviews. Where did they all come from? They were'nt there 5 mins ago.
Hey Deni, totally agree with you about the feet. For the price of the bag it needs the feet! Also interesting way to get into the bag but I do not think I would ever use the tabs. Just too much of a pain to get into it quickly. 💖
I've ended up folding the top flap into the middle of the bag, and that's working for me. When I need to keep things really secure (like on an attraction), I'll close it all up as designed. And YES...feet please! ❤
So happy to see you today. I’ll watch anything you have to say. I love handbags to, also totes. Last time I went to London my sister and I found so many totes from the famous stores and museums and even the Buckingham Palace store (my fave). I couldn’t buy those super expensive too. I buy Dooney and Bourke cuz I love the quality on I Love Dooney best prices.
Beautiful bag and thank you for the introduction to this brand! I love a good handbag and every trip I'm torn between a leather bag in Italy or a D&B. I love the color of this one, but I think that clasp open/close would get on my nerves. There's lots of other choices on their site that do not have that clasp. Thanks!
awesome job Deni! You are so great at everything you vlog! Pass on the purse though, think the closure would irk me even more than the no feet. No way could I get in that and close it back up easily.
Look at you, getting requests for reviews, you go girl. I agree about the feet, need them. I'm not a fan of that clasp, looked like way too much trouble getting open and closed. I'm a D&B gal, I own way too many and you can get one for less than that. I must own 10 D&B Disney purses, not big ones, just the little crossbody ones that you can put a cell phone, some cash, a small card wallet.
@@deni_sunderly Well. There is my Disney World addiction......🤣 BTW. You are such a blessed spirit. I enjoy your videos! (Are they still called videos??? I'm 52....Im old...lol)
Good review Deni, and bang on regarding the feet. For me it feels like it's a bit of a faff to get into, would be interesting to have your opinion post use.
Thanks a bunch for watching, Lou! I've used the purse for a week now, and I still want those feet lol. I'm folding the top flap into the middle of the bag, and it's super easy to get in and out of that way. When I need things to be secure, I'll take the time to use the flap. I love the way it looks, and I'm enjoying the large middle compartment. :)
Fun review! Bag needs to be lined and definitely feet, that was one of my first thoughts, tooAlso, I don’t like the lack of pockets on the inside. The zipped compartment is a must, but need at least 2 more pockets on the opposite side, for a cell phone and sunglasses or lip gloss. And a pocket on the back of the bag, for a cellphone and ease of access. The bag looks a little too complicated to open, if my phone were to ring, by the time I got the bag open and rifled through the bag to find it, I’d probably miss the call. I don’t see it being equivalent to a $499 bag. It’s nice, I think a $109 price is more reasonable. Lose some of the excess packaging and drop the price! And I will pay a lot of money for a well made classic handbag, though I don’t do so on a regular basis. It is a pretty bag and for free, I’d definitely use it! Enjoyed the video, as always.
The original (Jane Birkin) birkin bag was just a casual beach tote. It might even have been fabric or straw. A stuff it all into bag. Not intended to be luxe leather bag for mucho bucks. But that’s what it journeyed into. The rest is marketing/ oneupsmanship history. But it will never have the casual elan or panache of the original.

That was fun. My mom and my wife enjoy handbags, and it’s always nice to hear brands I have not heard of.
Thanks so much for tuning in, Larry! ❤👜

What a beautiful bag! Definitely out of my price range. Great honest review. Fun video. 😊

Your review style is very analytical and complete so I feel like a get a good sense of the item if it is a cookie or a handbag.

❤You are so sweet, Leslie! Thanks a bunch for watching. I don't blame you with the Dooneys...they're fabulous!
I really like the Ava, Virtello and Kim
Love those! ❤👜
I totally agree with you about handbags having feet! I love my Brahmin bags for that and many more of their features.
Ya gotta give us feet! 😂 Thanks so much for watching, Melanie!
Loved the unboxing video!
Thanks so much! ❤️

Another great review. I agree the bag needs legs. I purchased many bags for my partner. That is a nice bag.
Thanks so much for watching, Wade! ❤
I like it! I am not "girly" by any standard. But I do have a handbag issue! 😁 But mostly Disney bags. Haha
There are worse issues to have, Jana! ❤😂
@@deni_sunderly Well. There is my Disney World addiction......🤣 BTW. You are such a blessed spirit. I enjoy your videos! (Are they still called videos??? I'm 52....Im old...lol)
@@janasheets890 lol I'm okay with a Disney world addiction 😂 And thank you...you are too kind!
Denni great unboxing. The bag is pretty but agree would like to have feet closure seem cumbersome
Thanks a bunch, Robyn! And yesss...please give us feet! ❤

I’m going to check out this company. I never heard of them.
Let me know your favorite if you take a look at the site. Thanks so much for watching, Leslie!❤
Absolutely agree, FEET!!!!
other than that, it’s fabulous!
Nice cross body strap, but the boxy shape of the bag doesn't lend itself to long strap usage.
I agree, Steven

Love this, Chris. Many things start with humble beginnings, don't they?
@@deni_sunderly yes, indeed.
First think I noticed was no feet ! 8:58
Ya gotta have feet, right?!
The trouble with leather bags is they are already heavy before you even put anything into it.
They are definitely heavier, Chris. Thanks so much for watching!
And the colour is?
Hello! My bag is in Camel Brown. Thanks for watching! 🤎
@@deni_sunderly thanks!
But how many cookies does it carry? 🧐
🚨⬆THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION! Lol...it'll carry A LOT! 🍪
No feet. No purchase.
Luv Deni, don’t even use a hand bag
Thanks so much for tuning in, roger! :)
Oh, getting sent expensive bags to review now? You’re moving on up, lol.
Lol. Not sure about that, C-Bee, but I was glad to be given the chance that's for sure! Thanks so much for tuning in! ❤
