This is a bag with a lot of stories behind it. Melissa, your summary of its pros and cons is spot on, and it really shows how much you care about it. Thank you for sharing, and I look forward to more of your review videos!
I had that bag for a moment, but returned it due to an issue with the magnetic lock. I sometimes wish I would have exchanged it for another. I have a lockme chain bag now, which is very similar.
@@MelissaAdams-Wade I miss the size of the Vavin, it’s a little larger than the mylockme chain bag, but I prefer the silver chain on the lockme bag. I wish LV would tone down their gold chains and make them more of a champagne color and/or offer more bags with silver chains. The chain color is what prevented me from exchanging it for another Vavin.
I have this bag as well. It was a bag my daughters picked out for me for my 60th birthday. It wasn’t on my radar but I do really love it. I agree, the strap is a tad too long for crossbody wear and I am 5 ft 5 in. I wonder if there is a way to have it shortened?
The oldest handbag I have in my collection is a murakami multicolor piece my dad got me when I was about 4 years old. Only wore it on special occasions and it’s still in amazing condition! I also have lots of coach bags from my childhood and other LV bags. I am very sentimental so I’ll probably never let them go❤
@@neebieslittleluxuries what a beautiful story. My dad passed away when I was a teenager. He wasn’t the best man, pretty abusive but I loved him anyway. He got me a jewelry box I use to cherish. I no longer have it but I wish I still did.
@@MelissaAdams-Wade That is very honorable🤎you have a beautiful outlook on life being able to find love and appreciation in an unfortunate circumstance. I’m so sorry to hear about your father passing while you were still so young.
