Sophie, the color changes because it's dirty! :D, just clean it with soapy water and a toothbrush, I just literally cleaned my bag today and the change is amazing! looks brand new!, and you'll be surprised at how much dirtyness comes off from the bag!
So sorry to hear about your doggie🙄 I had a similar traumatic loss in mid-2017. Unless you've loved a special pet (but, they're ALL special!), you'll never understand the anguish that wrings your heart. Glad that you have the bun buns now to love on😁 Not to forget David! But, we're talking about furbabies here😉 I realize this is a really late comment, but, I recently discovered you late last year & have been bingeing on the older vids when I can 😍😘
The color does change on the LV canvases. It lightens. It’s happened on my MNG& DE pieces. If I didn’t purchase them from the store myself, I’d think they were fakes. Thanks for mentioning it!
You’re the reason I have this bag as soon as I tried it on I had to have it. It’s such a cute bag I love this vintage look and I can’t wait to get mine hot stamped.
Even though I'm 17 and all of these things are not in my price range for the very near future, I'm loving your videos! You got this bag for a good price it's now gone up to £750!xx
Hi Sophie, hope all's well! Been away for over a week and was so excited to come back and watch the two videos that I'd missed! You know what, you made me buy this bag!(-: Needed a small care-free bag and your review video got me hooked. Was flying from Heathrow about a week ago, rang LV up and they reserved it for me. It's fab and I can't wait to use it. Also please to have got a nice little discount from their Heathrow boutique. Lots of love xxx
first and foremost I'm so sorry to hear about your doggie :( ... But your figure is goals in the intro! please do a video on fitness/gym routine/etc? I've been watching some of your older videos and saw that you suffer from anxiety and depression which I do also, and since going on antidepressants (coupled with the stress of being in my final year of uni studying law!) I've put on about 20 lbs in the last year or so. I've always eaten so clean and every routine I've tried so far has done nothing for me. I was wondering if you could offer any advice as you also have talked about issues with your weight in the past. Thank you so much Sophie, you've become my favourite youtuber and every video I watch I wish more and more that I had a big sister like you, you're amazing! Also, again moving on to a different point, but I had a glittery case like that on my iPhone and hated it too but wanted a sparkly phone cover. In the end I went with the casemate Karat case and I absolutely adore it. It looks fab online but in person it looks even better! I get comments every day and it comes in sterling, gold and rose gold so it suits any colour iPhone!
Thank you for mentioning the glitter phone case. I was the one inquiring about it. I checked them out and they are really affordable and get great reviews. Do you have the rose gold phone?
I'm binge watching you today!! never realised you did a bag review on this one and I'm so happy because I'm considering purchasing this bag! really need your advise though, obviously this bag is going up in price.. I'm tossing between this and a gucci marmont bag (i notice you don't really have gucci in your collection) do you think id be silly getting a gucci marmot mini over this bag? I've also noticed gucci is everywhere on social media at the moment do you thing it will fade away? i don't want to make the wrong choice! x
Lovely bag Sophie. I like it because you can get it some much into it and it looks so very elegant. The other thing I like about it is that it just right for slipping into a tote bag if need be. Thanks for sharing cheers from Melbourne Kim 🐝😊🐞🐭
First off, so sorry to hear about your loss, I know this is an old video but that hit me in the feels. My heart breaks for you. Thank you for doing this video! I will now be adding the Alma BB to my growing Luxury Bag Collection. I love your video and I truly value your advice and opinion. I also love that you decided to go cruelty free. I find that extremely important myself and I’m so happy we are on that same path together. As if I could love you even more 😝. I adore your videos!! Thank you, your the best!
The Alma was actually designed for Audrey Hepburn and I think you are the perfect women to emulate her! You have classic style and a beautiful soul just like her! My heart and my pets hearts are all with you lovebug!!
I'm so sorry about your dog, sweetie! Big hugs to you! I love the alma bb. I'm thinking about the alma bb in epi leather, but vernis is super nice too! xx
Thank you Sophie for sharing your information about your Chanel lamps and where to buy...but...they don't ship to California...I'm so disappointed. Thank you again for sharing...but I'm determine to get a least one Chanel lamp...from where I don't know...lol.
I've never been a fan of lv as I see so many fakes being carried around which I feel cheapens the brand. I don't really fancy some of their bags but u have made me fall in love with the alma bb. thoughts pls, n can u talk about the fakes being carries around n ur opinion ? x
11:17 - Thank you for answering my questions about the phone sticker! I've always thought they looked so great in those videos but was weary about using them instead of a solid case. Sorry to hear that the glitter has rubbed off =/
Sophie I'm really sorry to hear about your dog I hope you are ok , thank you for taking the time to still make your Sunday video even though you must not of felt like doing it.The alma bb is a great bag I got mine just before you and I love it , I also bought it in Damier ebene because I wanted something carefree , I like to carry it in the crook of my arm so have not used the strap at all yet so it's sitting in the box.
I agree with hot stamping. All my LVs have my full initials hot stamped. I'm getting married in less than a month and def I thought about my LVs and how to "reuse" them Oh well, now I have a reason to buy a new bag to update my initials! :p
Blimey! Just shy of £1,000 now they’ve had another price increase (May ‘20). I’m looking for a new, small-not-small bag for winter that I don’t have to baby and even though this video is 4yrs old, still helpful.
Hey Sophie, I love your videos and just recently found your channel. I was wondering could you make a playlist with all of your videos on it, it would be great to just watch the playlist instead of finding each one individually. Again love your channel and it gives me motivation, I specifically love your careers, how to save money videos, they are awesome. Thanks :)
Sorry about your family pet. I noticed on several videos you have mentioned make up transfer, I use a Mr. clean Magic Eraser (sponge). I'm not sure if you can get them in UK. But they also work wonders on patent leather scuffs.
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYA!!!!!!! I am so happy for you, it is such a cute bag - yet very hardwearing, with no issues of dye transfer at all. Enjoy, and thanks for sharing your purchase with me :) xxx
Sorry about your dog Sophie. Great review! Will be buying this next time I'm in London! Love your eye make up! Can I ask what shadows you're wearing please? Thank you :)
Hey Sophie! I really enjoy watching your videos they're so informative! Btw, I am going to buy my first designer bag soon, and I am considering between a lady dior medium, a chanel mini square, and a louis vuitton alma bb. Which do you recommend? I really don't know what to buy first!!
Sophie, did you have any problems getting your bag hotstamped? I got my AlmaBB in Paris back in Dec 2015 and they told me hotstamping wasn't an option for this bag. :(
Buying this in 24 days when I take a trip to London... Does the New Bond Street Louis Vuitton store tend to have a lot of stock in? Or would I be better off going to Harrods? Xx
I'm binge watching your videos, a new subscriber here and I'm loving all your videos! Quick question, how long would one have to wait while they do the hot stamp? I'm heading to Paris but only for a couple of days so I'm wondering if it's even possible for me. Thanks Sophie!
+tres noirlights Hello my love! The hot stamp took a week from memory, but that's only because they had to send it off for some reason. I e been in other boutiques where I've watched them do it immediately! So...I'd ask the store to recommend where it can be done to fit with your schedule. Or, get it done on your return - it's free and you can do it on any LV item, even if really old! Enjoy Paris! Xx
i really want to buy this as my first luxury designer handbag however the price on the louis vuitton website has changed to 725 pounds would this be the same if i go to the store in harrods??
hi Sophie, first of all, i really like your channel, and your personality, you are such a beautiful and honest woman :) secondly, i have a request ; I'm on the market for LV Alma BB, but i have a DOUBT!. i'm the kind of person who carried lots of thing in the bag, the MOST IMPORTANT IS A SMALL BOTTLE OF WATER, i would gently ask you, if you can tell me if the bottle fits in the alma bb . THANK YOU VERY VERY VERY MUCH!!! love you . xo Giulia.
Hi Sophie, I love your videos. I'm thinking of Alma BB and just watched this and your buys under £1000 I cant believe BB is now £990 vs few years ago £675 would you still recommend buying it? Xx
Hey Sophie! I’m thinking of purchasing an LV purse for my birthday this year, and would love to get an Alma in PM or BB size. Years ago I wanted the Alma MM in Pomme D’amour to be my first LV purse, but couldn’t afford it. Finally, it’s within my means, but of course that colorway and size has been long discontinued. Last year I bought the LV Summer Trunks 2018 Speedy 30 for my birthday. But I still crave the Alma. I’m so in love with the Alma PM in Vernis in the color Cerise. Additionally, I’m seriously enamored with the Alma BB in Damier Ebene in the new Limited Edition style with black handles and trim, and on the two faces of the bag there are gold studs with an insert of a zigzag panel of red pebbled leather with a white leather trim. I don’t know if it has a particular name, but the style number is N40046. Which would you suggest is a better everyday, day to night purse for any occasion?!? I want a purse to shop in, dance in, run around in, to dress up AND dress down. Would love to hear your thoughts!!! ❤️ Many hugs, Jess!
Hi Sophie, hope you can help me. I want to get this bag but not sure should go with canvas DE or Epi leather - 2 times on the shops and couldn't decide it :( Hope you can't help me. I am looking for a care free cross body bag and sometimes can use for semi formal dinner too and Alma bb is perfect for me but what DE or Epi in dark colour I should go? Thanks for your opinion.
Hi, i wanted to ask you for advice. I am looking for a small bag that can fit bit more than favorite. I am between alma bb DE or bond street? Do you think that bond street model will be soon discontinued and will loos a lot of value?
Hello, Sophie. . .I enjoyed this video! So sorry to hear of your dog's passing!! Since you carry so many rewards cards, I highly recommend your using one of the apps that help manage those cards without you having to physically carry each one. I use CardStar; however, there are several available. All you do is scan the card into the app then, whenever you need a card, you just find it in the app and the sales clerk can scan it at checkout.
Hi Sophie, I found your bag collection video / advice useful. I'm 21 and hoping to buy my first designer handbag this summer: either the mini YSL sac de jour or monogram baby cabas. please can you advise me if u think these are good investment pieces or if I should go for something else. thanks Hafsa xx
