I loved the givenchy I bought (and sold) the small it was just too big for me and the strap was rarely used. I always wanted the mini version and regretted that I never got it in that finish.
Great video! I adore my Givenchy but found myself not reaching for it because of the strap coming undone. I recently realized the straps come undone and so I removed and replaced the 'G' shape connector with a swivel push lobster clasp like the ones on LV bags from Amazon and its a life changer!! You can't even tell I made an alteration. I kick myself for not thinking of it sooner because I knew the issue with the strap and still got the bag. Now, I'm really enjoying my bag without the stress of it coming undone out of nowhere and it's secure most importantly- because who wants to drop their bag while out 'n about, right!
Omg you are a genius!! 🤯 replacing the connector never occurred to me but now that I think about it, you can unbuckle the adjustments and change it so easily! Wow, I am mind blown. After all these years 🤣 thank you so much for the amazing tip!! 🥰💕
I recently purchased the Prada Re-Edition and they've recently added a feature on the strap where the pouch will stay! But the con is the current pricing hurts hahaha
so true on this! so many ppl jus see the pretty side but they need to be practical! i was dying for a nano speedy previously but due to the high demand i didn’t get it. but i got a speedy 20 which it fits so many things and i am glad! there so many ppl complained abt the givenchy bag. i loved it at first but i find it way too boxy! i recently jus purchased the coach kip crossbody and i loved it! 😂 jus realise you did a review too! lov it! hav a good day~~~~ thanks for the video again
Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰 the speedy 20 is definitely a more practical size but you still also get that mini bag look. Thank you for your support! 😘❤️
It’s all about providing information - even the best bags have their cons so I’m hoping someone can learn some of the negatives about a bag before spending a lot of money on them.
I sold my givenchy bag because of the strap. One day I was in Costco, the strap just came off and dropped on the floor. It was the most embarrassing moment in my life.
Omg I totally feel you! Thank you for sharing your story! I’m glad I’m not alone on this and you can relate 😅 I love the bag too much to let it go, even though the straps annoy the heck out of me 🥲
I love the new version of the Speedy Nano! They finally made the strap removable! I almost cut the straps off of mine, but so glad I didn’t! I was able to sell mine and grabbed the new version! 👏👏👏 So much better! Now you can change the strap to whatever you want! 💕
Finally someone said it 😂 I saw the nano speedy when I was shopping in LV and I’m like whoa! Cute but way toooo tiny! I prefer the speedy 20 but to each their own. Thanks for posting! New subbie 🥰💖
I own the Prada and I totally agree with you about the strap and the pouch. I end up leaving that pouch at times or just snap it on the side of the purse instead even though it looks a bit bulky but better than having it attached to where it’s supposed to 🤷🏻♀️ like you, I love it but yeah if I could change one thing that would be it. Lol
Im in Newfoundland, Canada & we say sneakers🤣🤣🤣 but we are on trade route with Australia for way over 100 yrs ( my great grandfather sailed to Australia twice to trade goods , he be gone over a 1yr each trip ) i wonder is that were we picked it up the term sneakers🧐
I don't have the Chloe Nile, but maybe a sticker could help? You know, these stickers they sell to protect the hardware, usually they have some stickers for magnet closures as well 🤔? Maybe that would make it a little bit weaker? And don't worry, in Europe, we call the shoes sneakers, too 😊. Not a big sneaker person over here, but I'm luckily nevertheless familiar with this expression 😉. Interesting video 💗! And looove your dog, so sweet 😍!
Thank you so much! ❤️ I’ll definitely have to look into a sticker of some sort to help with the closure. Haha I’m glad you’re also familiar with the term! 😆 Aww thank you 🐕😋💞
Have you tried using the Prada strap on your mini Antigona? Would like to see if that solves the problem and if the Antigona looks good with that kind of strap. Thanks.
Ooh no I haven’t. That would be a great solution as it can clip on. Good thinking 😊 I think my only concern is that the strap says “Prada” at the front, but it’s subtle!
@@helloxluxury I actually got the Antigona years ago but in the small size - it should really be called a medium. The strap was not adjustable nor removable. But what annoyed me was the zipper that scratched my hand and arm whenever I reached inside. Thanks for your honest take on the bag! I’m going to give the Antigona another chance and get the mini sport or the mini lock - I can’t decide. I’m leaning towards the Lock bc it has a magnetic closure instead of a zipper.
Can you use organizer in nano speedy to make it more comfortable to take things out?? I just got mine one but still haven’t use it because it’s too cute>
I’ve tried using the organiser I have for my Palm Springs Mini Backpack (it fits perfectly in the nano speedy!) but I find it takes up a bit of space and makes it more difficult to put things in and take things out. You should use it! It’s soo cute!! 😍
I bought a medium Balenciaga Downtown in black. The magnet on the flap is so strong, after just a couple of uses the leather around it went noticeably saggy! It's still a great bag and when it's closed you can't see that part anyway.
Chanel has these little chain/strap shorteners that you can put on either side of where the chain threads through on your WOC. That way it’s a bit bulkier and acts like a stopper. Chanel gave me 2 clips when I bought my Gabby back pack bc it just pulled through on one strap which was super annoying. I’ve also heard people making their own by threading a button through the chain. Give it a shot! Also I was going to buy the re edition but not sure I like how the new strap has the leather tab that the mini pouch attaches to. If u chose not to use the mini pouch (bc sometimes I prefer the cleaner look) the leather patch looks random. And the Prada embossing is also moved to the back of the strap. Let me know your thoughts bc I’m trying to figure which one to buy!
Thank you so much for the tips!! 😍 Ohh I never thought about the random leather tab there and the Prada logo being at the back of the strap as a result. All good points! I do like the clean look of the strap whenever I want to be low-key and not so “trendy” with the pouch but I feel like I wear the bag more with the pouch than without, so I think I would still prefer the newer version 😊
Love your videos and content. Sometimes though I wish there was an option to go to 1/2 time because of the speed and pressure of your speech! Gets a little frantic feeling.
Aww thank you! Sorry 😅 I tend to talk super quickly when I’m passionate and I’m always passionate about my handbags! Haha RU-vid has the ability to slow down or speed up videos under the playback speed settings ☺️
Hello! Yes I do! I’ve heard Apple Garde is great to protect vachetta leather but it’s not sold in Australia so I’ve had to find an alternative. If you’re from Australia, try the Kiwi Extreme Protector spray. That’s what I’ve used on my Nano Speedy ☺️
This is always a great video idea. I did this video idea a few times too. I used to have the mini Antigona but I hated the tiny handles, even though I still love the bag itself!
I love hearing the good and the bad about handbags. It’s a great topic and I wish there were more out there so we can make better informed decisions ❤️
im about to buy the prada reissue in the same combo as you so I have been researching a bit - you can attach the coin purse to the base where the clip on's are for both the straps. that way it sits alongside the main bag and no issues with it flailing around.
Hello! I’m about to buy it too but not sure which one to buy the new version or old. I’d probably prefer the older strap. Trying to understand what your tip is, so you just attaching it to the bag itself rather than on the strap?
@@helloxluxury yes, me too! I love it, my husband bought me a Boetie pm so he is good at picking hahah… 🥰😄 thank you for your prompt reply. 😍 Wait for your next content video and tips.
