👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 If you enjoyed this review and would like to see more, please give this video a big thumbs up!💋 You know me, I’m a Chanel girl to the fullest. I LOVE the concept, LOVE the look, but not crazy about this one. ♥️

The vanity styles look cute, but this issue of needing two hands and how it falls open make this style a no for my personal collection. It does look great!

I am going on record that I love any and every WIMB video!!! I could watch them all day.

Yes, I do love seeing what's in my bag too. Thank you!

Your reviews are always “On Point“👍🏻

This is why I like your channel, your honesty comes first. I am a Chanel lover but I have never understood the craziness and the idea of converting a vanity into a bag. I had the LV ones and I tried once as a handbag style, and omg it drove me nuts until I got home that day. I realized I am a classic girl, a vanity is a vanity and it’s not a purse. The opening was my main problem and the leaning forward while doing it. Also, the zipper getting stuck etc. I can also tell you that the top zipper leaning on top of the bottom is not a control issue, my LV nano and mini did the same. I think that is because of the handle wait and the zipper getting softer 🤷🏼‍♀️.

I like ❤️ that table you use to showcase all the items. Its all super visible and helpful for us viewers. Hoping that everyone will do the same. 👍

Thanks for sharing! I really love this bag, but now after hearing your review may reconsider purchasing it

Omg, finally a true Chanel vanity review! Thank you for this, I have been on the reserve list for this for 2 seasons but wasn’t excited about it for some reason. It’s so cute, but seems high maintenance. We’re already cute, and high maintenance, we don’t need our bags to be too! lol 😂

It is a big help to see what is in your bag.

I saw this being sold in the Chanel beauty and fragrance boutique. I love it!

Love your phone case! Looks protective and pretty.

I love your reviews💕 they have everything that we need to know about an item 👏👏👏

Love WIMB vids they’re so helpful 💃🏻 definitely think you should title it the good, the bad & the ugly 🤣 that just describes all your honest review.

I owned the LV cannes and found that one really difficult to open. Strangely I find this vanity fairly easy to open and close. I don’t keep the zippers in the center though 🤔 also if you just zip it a little it keeps the bag closed in my experience. What a bummer it’s not all you hoped it would 🥺

Terrific review. Try lightly stuffing with air paper. Lay her on her back for storage, so the chains don’t dig into lambskin?

Wonderful review as always!

I finally bought it in black caviar leather, no handle. It's so kyot! I avoided the lambskin because of the wear it will get. I actually saw a lambskin one in store and saw a potential Crack in the leather.

Thanks for this review. So helpful because I am looking at the same size vanity in light pink. I will only get it in the caviar thanks to your review. And preferably without the top handle if available. 💗💗💗

Yes GBU!!!! Great video! I am sorry to hear about the ‘ugly‘! xoxo Martina

hey would you recommend chanel lambskin square mini in 22c beige. i am scared of it being light colored lambskin but really like the color

I love this bag. I didn't buy it because I'm too lazy to open and close a vanity case. It is adorable, though

Yes I noticed the indentations of the chain immediately so what I did is used a hanger to hang the chain on it or you could buy a hook to put on the wall of your shelf, or the small bag display rack. I had to do the same for my lambskin 19 bag with the small chain that rests on the bag because it was leaving indentations on that bag too. Because it's so short i tied a small scarf to lift it and tied the scarf to a hanger as well. The goatskin 19 doesn't do that.

Between mini rectangular and this one, which one you think holds more?

She’s a little beauty! Regarding the zipper- run some wax paper on the zipper teeth. Don’t worry not messy n will not mark your zipper. It smooths the zipper immediately!! Works great on vintage zippers, the famous PS mini n bumbag zippers!

Hi Love! ♥️ Happy Weekend to you too! 💕✨

It would probably be nice if it had a removable chain, so you could store it easily & just use the top handle for a dressy look.

How about storing horizontally?

Such a beauty. Personally I love the idea of a vanity case as a handbag. Its just unfortunate how much of a hassle this bag is.

I got the rectangular light beige vanity (bigger version of your cube) and the zipper is super smooth. I never struggle to open it. However I bought a black cube (same size as your cube) from fashionphile and I struggle with the zipper like your top handle vanity and ended up returning it. So I think it's a quality control thing. Maybe because the zipper gets sewn too tightly around the corners so there isn't enough give for the zipper to go around the corners? Not sure...

What a great review! We want to hear it all, GBU all the way! 😂. Such a cute bag, too bad it’s got a bunch of cons. I have the beige and black Filigree vanity and I love it so much but it is in caviar. I think I have a thing for vanity cases because I have the LV vanity PM that I love too. Just looked at Fashionphile and there’s a pink caviar one like yours for 4350! What! Thank you for the awesome video.

I had the same issue with the indents on mine, too! Unfortunately, I figured out a way to store the chains AFTER I messed up my bag. I put the chain inside the bag and then put a rolled up piece of bubble wrap under the rest of the chain that is sitting on top of the bag. Hope that helps!

hi Alliah Mac, Don’t mean to be too forward, how much will you sell your vanity case ? Is your’s with the handle or without the handle ? If we can make a deal, is a win win situation & you can use the $ towards your new denim bag.

@minks4All love your review. What is the watch you’re wearing

Sell it before there is more wear and tear of the bag. It is not a forever bag and won’t make you happy in the long run

I have the micro vanity. It only fits my Samsung flip, keys and lipstick. This is what I carry around these days (post Covid era).

love the look but hated the ease of use :( i didn't have the top handle and it was still so cumbersome to open and close and the zipper sucked...wear and tear was horrible as well...so away it went! :) hated using it :( great video! people need to know :)

How does this compare to your Gucci globetrotter beauty case or did you sell that one ?

@Minks4All

2 жыл бұрын

The Gucci Globetrotter was wayyyy easier to get in and out of.

The way I would store it: put a box behind the bag, wrap the chain with a felt or the white tissue coming with the bag and leave the wrapped whole chain on the box. Doing that you can prevent the chain from touching the top . I have the pearl crush version so I understand your issue, mine is much easier to store since it has grommets and I can just tug the chain inside the bag. But congrats on scoring this vanity bag, you won’t lose a penny selling in case you don’t love it. So eventually it’s still a hit 😁

What about “storing the chain” by Hanging the strap on something taller behind the bag, i.e. a necklace holder or some other sort of stand. It’s a beautiful bag but like you say with the downsides for you it’s not super user-friendly.

This is why I refuse to buy Chanel lambskin. Who wants to spend that much money and not have a durable bag?? But Chanel has been making so much more lambskin bags past 5yrs to the point I believe they don't want their bags to last. So customers (who can afford) buy a new bag every season or so and less of a resale mkt.

I would regret.

The quality of Chanel is so hit and miss

That is completely incorrect - these particular 'bags' are made to be used that way and Chanel labels them for this use. Hence the name Vanity Bag along with the strap.
