You are the reason I got this bag. I have been looking for a large cosmetic bag forever and this definitely is it! Not normally an LV fan but I love it. I do not plan on using it as a handbag as that doesn’t appeal to me. However, I think the price point for something this size is really good. Thanks for highlighting this bag.
Love this update!! I really love how this can be used as a regular cosmetic bag and easily convert into a shoulder bag/crossbody bag--very versatile! I would love to see a 1 month update after this.
Thanks for the updated video. I received mine last week and just love her! My husband even thought it was a great piece to add to my collection. Ha I’ve been looking for a bag insert. You are just wonderful to share all of the the pieces to convert this. A million and one thank yous 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Using it for 2weeks and it’s awesome, fits so much. I ordered an organizer but it was too small. I don’t carry much so I’m not too worried about the shape changing, plus I switch out my bags very often. Thanks again for the idea❤
Hi there! It’s my first time viewing your channel. I enjoyed your high quality video! The close up shots were especially helpful. I’m one of the people who converted my toiletry 26 to a cross body bag so I enjoyed your take on converting this fresh new large cosmetic pouch! Hope to see you doing more videos on LV luxury bags!
Great video and a good conversation, however the rings will rub and cause the canvas to the damage over time. While I agree that any bag that is used regularly will experience a level of wear and tear, however this usually happens at natural pace and is not forced.
I totally agree with you on not getting a bag this size for the price point is accurate. I love how you converted the bag. I did purchase it after seeing you do this but, I will tote as a handbag not makeup bag as, I have a toiletry 26 for that. I absolutely love this look and it is plentiful for a smaller something to carry. New subbie here. You are very pleasant in your delivery, it was easy to enjoy watching your video. I can't wait to get mine. Thanks for doing this.
You will love it imo. Lol. I had mine for 8 months but only had the standard monogram bandouliere which works great and I have a short vachetta shoulder strap. I just sold my monogram bandouliere to buy the same one Ro has. Can't wait to receive it! It's a smart purchase as it can go with my other LV bags. Here is a tip to keeping the rings up. I got brown soft yard and wrapped it around the ring only where it sits under the fold. I wrapped it several times to make it thicker there (under the folded area) so now the ring stays up but if you use a heaving chain, like a Coussin (I have one) the weight of that chain still pulls it down but with your bandouliere or leather strap it does help keep it up. There is still movement under the fold so there is no forced tension.
@@debbieh9009 Thank you so much for the tip. I don’t have the adjustable strap Ro has but, I have the thinner adjustable one. I may do the same. I love the thicker one or I might just buy it. 🤷🏾♀️ Happy Turkey 🦃 Day to you and yours.
Yay! Thanks for doing an update as I'm seriously thinking of buying...but uuugh..$1k is still alot! Lol. I wish it was $600. Lol. I just bought mine yesterday! Love it! Does the organizer cover the zip pocket or the slip pocket?
Hi Ro! I have this same GM pouch, you actually inspired me to buy it❤. I purchased about 8 months ago. What I am noticing is the bottom base corners flare out. The corners are not straight down. Think of flare leg jeans lol. My corners flare out like that. Has yours done this yet? I do have a base shaper at the bottom but it has room around it so it is not pushing on the corners. I think I may sell my mono bandouliere strap and buy your adjustable mono strap. I love the various lengths and the brass snaps are decorative and does dress up the pouch too.
Hi Debbie! Mine hasn’t really flared out much but for the shape of the bag I’m not really surprised it’s flaring out sadly. I do see mine doing the same later on too with more use. The adjustable mono strap is great I highly recommend it but you definitely sell one don’t need both mono straps💕
Yes I sold my monogram strap to Fashionphile ($300) and bought the strap like yours from FP for $122 less then retail. It is in excellent condition and came with dustbag and box. I should have bought this strap from the START but I was being CHEAP! LOL😂
Hi Ro does a organizer for the Speedy B25 fit into the Cosmetic GM? Also , did you pre order the denim cosmetic GM releasing 1/1/24, if so I can’t wait to see🤗. Thank you and Happy New Year🎉
Hi yes the organizer I used is a speedy 25 organizer. I did not order any denim yet but will definitely update if I do order anything from the denim collection😊 Happy new year!!💕
@@luxedwithro thank you for the information Ro. Keep up the good work! I really enjoy watching your videos. Happy New Year for health and happiness in 2024🧧🥳🙏🥂🎉
I just bought this bag right after work! The organizer you linked on the other hand didn’t have the one you showed in the video and the smallest size was too big 😢
Hi 😊 the one I showed in the video I couldn’t find it anymore but the one I linked should be able to fit in it as well. The organizer should be able to squeeze a little smaller if it’s too big. It was the closest size I could find on Amazon for the bag. Sorry I couldn’t find the exact one I used in the video😔
@LuxedwithRo Thank you. I, too, worry about it cracking at the folds. If I purchase it, I would only use it for travel. We don't travel a lot, so hopefully, cracking won't happen. ❤️
@@luxedwithro thank you Ro I just pre ordered it in the denim. I am hoping it would look good paired with my Coussin PM denim leather jaquard guitar strap💙
Yes they will do that. 😠 But if she keeps it private, how will we find out about it?😆 Lol. We just need to jump on it immediately that's all. If you snooze you loose unfortunately 😭😭😭 I guess I need to hurry and make up my mind! Lol
@@suriaprebavaratharajoo6866 yes I hear ya however at the same time, people like her are saving people like me money. I just bought this pouch just over $1k usd with tax, like 1 hr ago. 😀 Lol. Yes it isn't cheap but a real LV bag will be more so I went this route! I already have a LV bandouliere mono strap and a vachetta strap along with the O rings (I already own from buying for another bag) so Im good. I was looking for an everyday carefree bag that will hold my essentials with the capacity to hold more and this does. Perfect for the zoo, parks, museums, amusement parks, traveling, etc. Love that the interior has an easy wipe free surface. That's why you get it now before LV stops production and make a bag and change the price to double. Get one now. 🥰
@@suriaprebavaratharajoo6866 Thank you so much! I do feel it's a bit costly even though it's the cheapest alternative for a LV "bag", I feel $600 is what it should be, but oh well. Lol. It's not. This is my LAST "BAG" of the year! 🤣
@@avabuzzbee9014 And it wasn‘t a good idea either. I mean it is not a very beautiful or practical bag. LV transformed it and made it more expensive so that people stop doing straps on their cosmetic pouches.
This looks terrible. It looks so botched I hate when people convert pouches to bags it never looks like a bag it just looks like u can’t afford the real thing . Just saying . Plus it’s gonna get ruined. The fact u need to make sure the rings are facing up should say it all . It’s a cosmetic pouch not a bag
I love it! I did the same hack. Lol. I get compliments when I'm out as no one thinks it's a hack. Lol. I wrapped the ring with soft yarn in the area that stays under the flap and made it thicker so now my rings stay up and has cushion. To each their own I suppose as those that don't like hacks won't like hacks.
