Wow!! Thank you for this in depth video!! I just got an alma ebene from a personal shopper and saw 3 stitches in the back, I was worried my bag was a default piece...but what you mentioned that all of them have that..gave me a price of mine. Thanks so much!! I do think the ebene looks classier than the monogram print.
A couple days ago I was 100% on board with the Monogram, but after seeing reviews about how people prefer the Damier so much more, it really swayed my mind and now I can’t stop prefering the Damier. How funny is that, I don’t usually get swayed by other people’s choices.. anyways both bags are beautiful in their own ways.
Damier is the way to go ... over time the monograms cream leather will darken over time making it look a bit old or aged and thats not the case with the damier.
Wow the Damier Ebene is like a piece of chocolate... so gorgeous. Carry it when it’s raining no problem. My bff said it’s an equivalent to using an everyday black bag.
Before watching this I actually like the monogram better and found it "cuter" online. By watching the video I actually got the opposite conclusion of the reviewer and found the Damier strangely cute and the monogram quite mature in style.
please girl do more chlothing hauls, its hard to find girls that have a more feminine cutesy style that is still on the classy side!!!! ur style is amazing '1
thank you very much！I used to think of this bag for across but after watching your video I choose the pochette metis and i think its a good chose thank you again！
Hi I'm so glad u gave your opinion on alma bb as a crossbody. I was thinking of getting it to travel with but now.... def having second thoughts! Glad I watched this! Thanks Chloe!
My pleasure, sweetie :) Although it's quite uncomfortable as a cross-body, alma bb is still my favorite :) Enjoy your travel and Thank you for watching Xoxo ♥♥
I'm saving to get this at the Champs-Elysees store in Paris! Thank you so much for the video, I've been looking everywhere for this! Still can't decide though. Just worried about water and patina with monogram but it's prettier
Personally, I used Damier Ebene much more frequently but I agree with you, the monogram one looks prettier :) Thank you for watching my video. Hope you make the best choice! ♥ XOXO
You are very tasty on fashion. The best video for Alma presentation. I have both and love them both. And you very right. Alma is hand carry style, not meant to wear with strap 💕💞
I just subscribed your channel .because I like your sharing very details very helpful! And your trench coat is very beautiful, I love it ! May I know where u get it?:p
+Stephanie Cruz Thank you for enjoying my video. Personally, I use DE much more frequently. So I feel it's more practical. Hope you make the best choice for yourself :)
I have the monogram Alma BB and I do love it. I had no idea as to the front and back of the bag before you mentioned it. I bought the monogram because it was very pretty. The domeir eben is much more practical and I like it as a hand held bag. Such a shame your bag becomes distorted with the strap and I wonder if all the domie eben BBs behave that way. Thank you for this review and I love your channel.
I wonder why did the color of the padlock of the monogram one changed like that and didn't happen the same to the damier ebene one.... it's weird, you'd think they're using the same padlocks! Anyways! thank you so much for this comparison! It helped me so much to decide which one to chose! So I went for the monogram! So excited to get it! They're both gorgeous though! Oh, how do you take care of the vachetta leather?
+Cristina Anca Hi, Cristina :) I asked my SA about the padlock, and she said they are made like that. I checked the new one at the shop, and the colors were slightly different. She said DE has shinier hardware in terms of Alma. Congrats on your new bag!! XD I try to keep the Alma BB mono from getting sweat, water, hand cream, oil and so on. It's quite high-maintenance for me. Anyway, Thank you for enjoying my video :) Xx
Hi! It is the first time I watch a video from you and I really like it! I will buy my first LV soon ... but I dont know wich bag is the best to start buying this brand! Please help me!!
Hi, sweetie :) I usually recommend Speedy Bandouliere 25 or 30 as a starter piece! If you try on the bags in person, it would be a lot easier to choose! Hope you make the best choice! Thank you for watching ♥
I agree, I don't think they look right as cross body bags. They are super cute! Do you think if these were in epi leather the long strap would pull too?
+HoneyB563 I guess it will be the same because the epi leather is as soft as the canvas, in my opinion. But you'd better check it with the epi alma users to make sure :)
+misstube Hi, misstube. I like using the BGM, but some said they don't like. :( So I am trying to see what's better. Thank you for enjoying my video- as always ❤️
speedy 25 will be good for value for money since there is more room to fit in more things, however if you are someone who goes light and compact everyday, my personal opinion is the alma bb will be better for you. i got the alma bb after much consideration anw
Hi :) If you mean speedy B 25, I'd recommend B 25. But between the classic speedy 25 and alma bb, I like alma bb a lot more than the classic 25. Speedy B 25 > Alma BB > Classic Speedy 25 That's my preference :)
Sold my Alma bb and have no regrets whatsoever. Too small compared to Speedy 25 and I disliked the useless straps on the bb exactly as described in this review.
Thanks, great video! I have a question: I was thinking of buy it (Damier Ebene) and carrying it occasionally as a shoulder bag, but I am short (5'2"). Will the strap be too long for me? I know it is not adjustable. Thank you!
Oh, I just read below that you are 169 cm (a little bit more than 5'5"), so the bag will sit a little lower on me than in your video. I think I am going to buy it mostly to carry in the crook of my arm. Thanks again for the excellent video -- tells me what I need to know!
I think the monogram will look cuter since it's more youthful. But 15 yr old still tends to be too carefree so Damier would be something that you don't need to worry too much in terms of taking care of the bag pprtion.
Why give a LV to a 15? What the difference is between a LV and a coach at that age? My daughter graduated from high school and going to NY for transfer. I offered to buy her a LV for job interview later and school special events. She said she is pretty without a LV, no need thousands dollars to be pretty at teen age. I don't mean to offend anyone but luxury is for mama who's making money to support. Kids learn to get a pride to buy their lux when the time comes with a good job
