So glad you’re now doing RU-vid videos. Like you, as a working Mum, I’m a bag lover by day and night! I’ve been mulling over a Chanel classic flap purchase in the reissue style (I know, crazy with the price increases!) but i’d love to know your thoughts on why you chose the classic flap and hear your take on it ❤️
It's always great to connect with fellow day & night bag lovers ;) Ah yes - it's not a great time to hunt for a Chanel bag with the crazy price increases. The reissue is a lovely bag - much more understated than the classic flap. Both are classic and I think it comes down to personal preference. It came down to availability for me - I was happy to add either to my wardrobe, but the classic flap was available and it was a tad cheaper too!
Watching this review even though I’ve already bought the Celine belt bag after being influenced by you via Instagram. You’ve also influenced me into a reformation dress and the next items on my list curtosy of you are the reversible Loewe belt and a Shop the Curated camel coat. Damn girl!! You’ve got me 💸💸!!
haha i'm not sure whether i should be apologising or high fiving you right now! (but i'm leaning towards the latter!) if you do happen to get the belt or the coat, you will not regret either!
New sub here! 🥰🥰🥰 I’ve been looking at Celine bags for a bit now! They are so beautiful! I mostly have LV bags which I show on mine at Candi’s Sweet Love For LV! Loving your personality! I’m a bag lover as well! I’m also thinking I need this belt bag now! 😂 Glad I found your channel! Always here to support others who are doing the same thing on here as I am! 💕💕💕
Thanks for educating me about this particular bag. I liked your explanation and yes! your accent too. Now I fully understand what is meant by size “mini”. Heading to a store near me and I expect my wife to be very happy! (I thank you with a matching neck bow.)
I've been struggling to decide whether to buy this bag as many told me not to given that it was launched years ago. But I still want it desperately after watching tons of reviews. I''ll definitely get a black nano belt bag! Thanks so much for your in-depth review!
I sold my micro belt bag recently, it’s quite heavy when put too much stuff and wearing crossbody is abit awkward, especially when the strap is not adjustable and it hangs around my hips not my waist as wanted, but I love the design of the belt bag, I’m considering getting the smallest one 😍
oh i hadn't quite appreciated that it would be heavy crossbody, but that certainly makes sense considering it's still quite a bit bag. the pico size is very cute and so so tiny compared to my mini size! 😅
Thanks for your review! I think deep inside I already decided months ago that I was going for this bag 😂 I have two questions: 1. which iPad do you have (size?) and 2. which color of your liner did you get? Thanks!
Hi love your reviews! I’m a new relatively Celine fan! 3 years. I just love the Celine Big Bag in Medium. but it’s been discontinued. Could you plz do a review for that. Love it in the Tan colour.
Hi, do you still use/own the bag? If so, do you still love it? How do you find the closure? Wouldn't it be easier to zip the bag up and just leave the flap open? Or do you need to close the flap/clasp for it to stay secure?
I’ve been deliberating over which bag to buy for work for a little while now. But I also would like to be able to use for play too, I know, I know, I am asking too much, 😆 Love Celine, I love the Seau Sangle, but when I tried it on in store it felt a little too casual for work. Then I thought I would just get a a YSL tote as they are east to use and still look polished. But I’m now back with Celine and I’m heavily leaning towards the Belt Bag!! Have you found the flap annoying, I probably would not use the zip but wonder how easy the bag is to use one handed? I tend to over think things 😂 and like to make well informed decisions. I came here for the Belt Bag review and have since subscribed. I too love Arket crews, Sezane and Everlane so am really enjoying your channel, great content, great personality, so a big very thanks. 🌟
A bag for work and play is certainly not asking for too much! I think the belt bag is great middle ground between the two - and I agree that the sangle is a bit relaxed while the YSL tote is a bit too dressy! The flap took a bit of getting used to, and I put up with it because I love the bag so much! It doesn’t annoy me but I know of others who don’t like it - I’m probably being very unhelpful here! Meanwhile, thank you so much for your lovely feedback - it’s SO great to hear!
Hi, Vee! I’m Bee 😁 I watched your phantom cabas video and noticed that you also have a bag liner for that bag. Is it the same bag liner or did you purchase 2 separate liners for each bag? I just got the phantom cabas (thanks to your review!) and I’m interested in a bag liner. I’m thinking of getting the belt bag in the future so I’m curious if the bag liner can be used for both bags. Love your videos!
Hi Bee :) I purchased different liners for each of the bag styles. practically, the liners aren't ideal in bag styles they're not made for as you won't be making the most of the space in the bag and you risk stretching the bag if it's a bit larger for it. so exciting that you have the phantom cabas! it's one of my most used bags!
Appreciate your videos, would love it if you would mention if bags are heavy or not. Sent back the belt bag as it was already heavy with nothing in it. Sad 😞
That’s such a shame that you found it heavy. It’s such a beautiful design. I haven’t considered weight to be an issue with the bag but I appreciate bags are a very personal thing. Thanks for watching!
Great video! I have a question regarding the flap area of the bag: Does the space between the suede and leather produce a bubble (enough that you would notice it when you open the bag) under the flap when you try to close the bag? Thanks!
I fell in love with the design and got the pico size right before it got discontinued 2 weeks ago! Do u think it’s a good decision to get a discontinued bag?
Nice review. I was once about to buy a brand new one for 850€ with a scratch but decided against it…. Bcoz of the scratch lol and neverminding such a great price. Now I got seau sangle and cabas.
Hi! Just wondering did your two gold round hooks attached to the bag had their finishing wearing off due to the strap latched onto it all the time ? :) thanks for sharing! I just bought a Celine belt bag!
Hi Virginia, I'm a new subscriber of your channel and I really enjoy all your contents. I have been eyeing this Celine mini belt bag for years and years and really doing all my research that's why I stumbled upon your channel. Thanks for the in depth review. It's not easy to pull the trigger coz u r right it's not the cheapest thing that's why it needs to be thought out and researched well so I don't regret it. I have a couple of questions though.. the liner inside of the bag, is it suede like texture? and is the color also black or it's like a purple-ly color like other bag owners claim? I am planning to get the black and mini size too. Also, I know you got it in 2019, do you ever think that you somehow have any regrets buying this now that you have couple of years owning it? Like you, I love minimalist styles in everything even in my wardrobe so I enjoy watching all your contents. Please continue to do so. Take care and thank you for your time 😊
Thanks so much!! The inside of the actual bag is suede but the bag liner that I use (and have linked) is made of felt. No regrets buying this one at all! I love it 😍 It’s certainly black to me, I’ve never heard of the purply colour issue, so that’s news to me!
Thanks so much Virginia. I so appreciate your response. I'm waiting for your in-depth review of the curated coats as you mentioned in your recent video. I am actually eyeing the classic camel coat. I saw your recent post about your coats and you have the other kinds. I also check out your blog for the items that I'm eyeing to get an idea on how it fits. I am the same as your height so your reviews are really helpful to me 😊 Take care.
I’ve put my blue mini belt bag with a reseller but I’ve been feeling like I should maybe take it back! It’s a shade of blue I’m not sure of and I can’t fit my work laptop in! But I do like the look of it and I miss it sometimes. Do you I should take it back?! 😅
It’s such a beautiful bag! But if you like the style and not the blue colour then perhaps you just need to get another one in a different colour with the $$$ you make from selling the blue version!
Hi ! Did you ever get scuffs and scratch on your belt bag ? I have mine since 3 months ago, worn it a lot and now I have like a line right above where it says CELINE at the bottom and I'm wondering if I should try leather conditioner on it or other stuff. My bag is the grey nano which I got new from Celine store
Hello! What is the exact MacBook type that you tried to fit in? (size and year)? There are slight differences between Pro and Air depending on the release year and I am trying to figure out whether mine would fit :))
