Fabulous unboxing! The handle straps on the Polène Cyme Mini remind me of the Telfar totes… how they just flop when you’re not using them. And those mystery straps on the side got me curious, so I did a little poking around on online… they do appear to be purely decorative (even though they have holes as if they perform a function). I look forward to hearing how you feel about the bag when you get to use it! Your birthday earrings are absolutely stunning! The linear design with diamonds creates such a flattering silhouette, elongating the neck and adding a touch of elegance. I love that you didn’t wait until October to enjoy them. 🎉🎂🥳🎈
Hi Steph, thank you. I thought that too because I have the Telfar grey puffy tote bag. I did find an instruction card that was hidden by the dustbag and you can use them across the bag for extra security. It didn't look good though and was really awkward to do. I'm just going to leave them hanging. I fell in love with those earrings when we were just walking past a jewellery store. I saw them in the window, went in, looked at them and just said yes please. I think they really suit me and I love how elegant but at the same time understated they are 💖💖💖
Hi LIz, thanks, I love the earrings. I really like the Polène bag too. I think it will get easier to use as the leather handles soften and become more pliable ❤
Thanks Kathleen. I was so puzzled by those dangly bits on the sides. Even after reading the instructions and knowing what they're for I still think it's a bit odd 😂
Hello Kaz, nice jeans, I always have that gapping issue at the back unless I get mid rise....coz I think I have a sway back. Good for back bends but probably not so good for ballet lols. I like the bag as well but those dangly things on the Polene bag reminds of the LV Neverfull....purely decorative I guess , but I can see this bag is very much you. My favourite today is the earrings!!!! These look gorgeous on you. I love dangly earrings too.....and it goes so well with the CC pendant you are wearing today. Plus love raw honey. I eat one teaspoon almost everyday and I get it from my friend who keeps his own bees.
Hi Grace, I'm the same as you I need mid rise jeans or I get that gap. The dangly bits at the sides of the bag can be fastened across the bag. I found the instruction card towards the end of the video. It's too much of a faffle though so I'm just going to leave them hanging. The earrings are stunning, the video really doesn't do them justice. I'm always good at finding the right present for myself 😂
That's what I thought and then I found an instruction card that said you can use them to tie across the bag for extra security. I tried that but they just looked really messy. I agree with you, I'll just let them dangle 🥰
Kaz! I just bought a Polene bag, too! I’ll wait till the unboxing to reveal the details 😁. The earrings are stunning! I’d like to add that your complexion is amazing! Saw that when you came up-close to show the earrings 😍. Have a lovely weekend! 💐❤️
We clearly share great taste in bags 😎 Thank you, I love the earrings and I have my Mum to thank for my typical English complexion. Hope you have a good weekend too 🥰
Hi 👋 Hola, Kaz Rag & Bone jeans no jeans, goes into my wish list. They do look comfy and easy to pull up and down for people with hand dexterity issues. 😊 B-day earings are stunning and happy you're celebrating your birthday month early. 🎉 Polène. I will like your feedback after a couple of uses, and please do a pro and cons video on that bag. I have the Numèro Un in mini and wore it for 3 months straight in 2021. Polène is a young french designed bags contemp. brand, but if I remember correctly, the craftsmaship is made in Ubrique. A cute town in the south of Spain, famous for its work with leather. I have to make a trip to there, someday😅 I hope him indoors and you are having a fantastic saturday or is it sunday down under already. ? Have a nice day😊
Hola Eli. Those 'jeans' are brilliant and I just found out they do shorts too so I just had to order some of those too 😅 Thank you, I love my earrings. I think Polène is made in Spain. I'll definitely review the Mini Cyme when I've used it a few times. It's the early hours of Sunday now, almost time to sleep 😴
@@darklin333 I think a size small would fit you. I'm nearly a 10 (28"waist 37" hips) and there's room to spare in the 'jeans', they're not tight at all, so I think a small would be fine. The fabric is very stretchy too. The rise is 12" so they sit on my waist but I do have a short torso and long legs for my height. I hope that helps 🥰
Thank you Jolee. It is indeed on the 18th October, you've got a good memory. I can't believe that I'll be 70. I still feel about 20 something but a lot wiser 😂
Mystery solved with the side straps but hmm 🤔 in theory a good concept in practicality seems kinda a fail. I still one the shape of the bag. I’m really curious. To see if you keep or return. Loved your earrings for your birthday gorgeous thanks for sharing 🛍️👛🙏🚢🦆
I'm not convinced about how useful those straps at the side would be for an extra closure across the bag. It's very fiddly and hard on the thumbs which isn't good. I'm definitely going to keep it. I hope the handles that aren't being used soften up so they hang more rather than stick out. Thanks, I love the earrings too 🥰
I’m settling in to watch and an Oct birthday bag now hmmm long forward to hearing how will this will or won’t count for August low buy 😂…. Back to video 🛍️👛🙏🚢🦆
Hi Dee Dee, the bag isn't my birthday present, the diamond earrings are. The bag is included in the low spend month but the diamonds definitely aren't. They would blow the budget 😂
I guess the loose straps one the sides could be there to change the shape of the bag quickly, simply by pulling them :) or to attach a shoulder strap maybe?
I found the instructions towards the end of the video and explained it then. Don't think I'll use them like that though. I'll just leave them hanging 😅
I love the shape of the Cyme? You bought I think 🤔 I could handle everything ECXEPT for how they made the handles. I don’t have ocd but the handles are bugging me a bit. I will be anxious for a follow up you keep to see how it all works and how you carry it. I have a Numéro Neuf Mini that I got at a fantastic preloved price and a micro numero un I love them both however the micro snaps do not stay put. The Neuf is an art piece for me just love the craftsman ship. I’m curious how you end up liking or not liking it. A review would be great. Back to video 🛍️👛🙏🚢🦆
I like the shape too Dee Dee, I'm going to keep it and hope the handles soften up. I hadn't seen the Numéto Neuf Mini, just had a look on the website. It's very cute. I'll definitely do a review of the Cyme Mini when I've used it a bit. I'm curious to see how it holds up, the leather is very nice 😎
Hello Kaz. Just wondering about length of the jeans for us petite girls and sizing generally. Did you have to have yours taken up at all? Great videos thank you ✨👌
Hi Jacqui, thank you. I haven't taken them up yet but they definitley need it. I would suggest washing them first in case they shrink. There's a way to take up jeans so you keep the original hem. It's in my video - My Chanel Jewellery Collection + Fashion Hack of the Week! - bit.ly/3TarynC at timestamp 15:19 🥰
