- Hey, y'all my name is Candace,
and in today's video, I'm doing a...
Louis Vuitton unboxing!
This is from the summer 2021 collection.
So let's dive right in.
(whooshing sound)
Honestly, I'm really not super impressed.
After seeing this in person,
I did reorder it with my SA,
and I expected the product to be a lot more vibrant
than it is in person because of the
pictures I saw online and et cetera.
So here's the box.
(upbeat music)
And here's the bag.
You guys probably already know what this is
because I did quickly tell
a couple of y'all in the comments
what I did order, but here's this bag.
I got the Speedy 25 bandolier
and this is what it looks like.
(upbeat music)
This is very pretty, just to tell you.
It is very pretty.
It really is.
I have no complaints, you know, about how it looks.
It's just not for me, honestly.
I don't know.
I don't want to always buy things and then share with you
telling y'all that I love them
and I'm obsessed with them and all of that,
because it's honestly not true.
And I don't know why people do that,
but I'm not one of those people.
It's a beautiful bag.
I got so many compliments in store
from other customers and clients
that saw me in store picking us up.
But the whole time I'm sitting there like ooh.
Yes it's pretty, but it's not me.
I just expected this to be a lot more
colorful and vibrant than it is.
I expected that the peach and coral at the bottom
would be a lot more bright than it is.
It's too neutral.
I feel like they should have done more of this color up here
rather than focus so much of the lighter color up top.
I know I'm going to be in the 1% that does not like this,
but I don't like it, okay.
I also don't like the fact that it has so much
of the pacetta leather all around it.
So you have pacetta leather here.
You have the leather here.
Not at the bottom, just on the sides,
along the seam of the bag, all the way around,
the handles, it's just too much going on.
And because this is a such a lighter bag,
I really don't feel like the leather darkening over time
will look very appealing on this bag.
That's just my personal opinion.
Normally I don't care about my leather darkening,
like on my monogram pieces, I don't mind the darker leather
because I feel like it blends in with the color.
But because this is so light, I don't like it.
I also don't like the fact that that leather is green.
You can see how much the green is in that leather up close.
I don't like it.
I feel like it will look very worn
in no time, as far as color transfer,
as far as...
I just know.
I'm just familiar with this type of leather
because I sold my Givenchy Antigona
mini in white for the same reason,
it had that green leather.
It showed up stains.
Even though I didn't have, you know,
I didn't leave the color transfer on there.
It's just shows stains very easily and I didn't like that.
And this type of leather reminds me of that.
Now I do have a Vavin PM up there
that has that same green leather,
but it was kind of different.
I like that bag a lot.
This one there's so much.
But nonetheless, now we've gotten past why I don't like it.
In case you do like it, I'm going to share
the good things about it.
Whoa, this zipper.
Okay, that's not good either.
This zipper is like a counterfeit.
It doesn't go across easily as, at all.
Look how much I'm struggling with this.
And that problem is, I'm not making this up,
It's literally hard to zip this across.
The zipper should not be like this.
Okay, you're definitely going back.
Like I tried to keep this.
I've had this for a week now,
before I even filmed this video,
I was like, okay, let me really sit
and think about it and see if I like it.
I still don't.
This is the longer strip, more pacetta.
I would have liked if they did,
maybe this bright color here with treated leather
across the trim and everything.
But they didn't.
They put the pacella leather everywhere.
I'm just going to put this on.
I've been wanting the Speedy for so long, y'all.
Y'all have no idea.
I just don't feel like the style is for me.
I don't know.
Okay, so here it is with the longer strap, it is adjustable.
It's so cute.
It really is.
It is just not me in any way, shape, or form.
Here's the code in case you're interested
in talking with the SA about it.
Oops.
It does come in three different colors.
This one is in brume, as I mentioned.
Okay.
I believe this is like a lock or something in here,
better make sure to put this back.
Yeah.
So there's a lock in here in the little box
in case you want to lock your baby up.
Very roomy inside, it's like stripe one leather in there.
Very, very roomy inside.
Louis Vuitton Paris.
Okay, that's pretty cool.
It has another Louis Vuitton little tag on the inside.
You see that?
There is a zippered pocket against the back.
That zipper's a lot smoother than the top zip.
I can't believe, I still can't believe they put this,
like, okay, so it closes easier than it opens.
Wow.
I cannot believe they put this cheap zipper on here.
None of my other Louis Vuitton bags open like this.
So I'm not just finding faults
endless because I don't like it.
That is not the case at all.
Okay, so this zipper is very stiff.
I'm not sure if it's just this bag, or all of the bags,
that are like this, are like that.
It holds a lot first of all.
I'll go ahead and do that for you.
Cause I honestly don't know if I
foresee myself getting another Speedy,
but we'll see, but let's quickly show you with it.
Okay, so here's my Speedy.
No bag insert or anything,
because I don't plan on keeping it.
So I'm glad I didn't order one.
I wanted to wait until I saw the bag,
make sure I liked it and all of that,
but we're starting off empty here.
I have my six key from Louis Vuitton.
I have a...
I have a Gucci face powder,
it might be a bronzer, but you get the idea.
I have my mini pochette from Louis Vuitton,
and this one is in damier azur.
Of course, I still have a ton of room in there.
I have my card holder from Chanel that I'm currently using.
My pure gum.
I have a backup charger.
I have my camera.
And just for kicks, we'll actually,
I can fit my key fob in there as well.
Just for kicks.
I have my medium agenda here from Louis Vuitton,
or my MM agenda.
That should fit too, it looks like it would.
Whoa.
Okay. So you kind of have to turn it sideways first
and then slide it in, but it does fit.
Look, all of that in there.
And of course, if you can fit all that in there,
you obviously can fit things like your phone.
I have an 11 Pro Max, as you all know.
I can even fit a small bottle,
even a bigger bottle, of water in there.
Now, be careful without a bag insert
so it doesn't spill everywhere,
but it can sit flat against the side.
You see that?
But with all of that in there it's pretty heavy.
I would be cautious.
Like if you're carrying it top handles especially,
which is one of the many ways you could wear it,
I'm going to show you that as well.
But I'm going to show you how roomy this is.
This was actually one of the first bags
that my agenda can fit in, so that is nice.
I just don't like the colors.
I know some people love neutrals,
they're all about neutrals.
I love neutrals too, don't get me wrong,
but that's just not what I was going for for this bag.
I wanted to see more of the coral come through,
and it just didn't, so that's a big disappointment.
Let me take this water out of here
before they don't accept my return.
Okay, man, I'm going to try it on
to show you how you can wear it and so forth.
So there are multiple ways in which
you can wear the Speedy, that's a great thing about it.
Another great thing, other than it being roomy and storing a
lot of stuff, you can rock it top handle.
You can rock it brackets in the crook of your hand.
You can wear a shoulder style, cross body.
There's so many different ways in which you can wear it.
That's why a lot of people love the Speedy.
Number one it's a great bang for your buck,
and the price, let's see how much the baby costs.
Well, the bandolier of course is more expensive
because you're also paying for the strap.
If you were to buy the traditional speedy,
like the damier, azur,
(Candace stammering)
(man wheezing)
monogram, you would buy the Speedy plus the strap.
For this particular limited edition one, it comes
with a strap, but it is more expensive with the strap.
So it's 2520 for the bag and the strap.
It also comes with the bag charms.
I don't know if I showed y'all those up close.
I'm honestly not super huge on bag charms, though.
That really didn't impress me all that much, but...
I also do realize there are two other bolder colors.
They have the rose color scheme,
and I think the other one was called
like azure blue or something, I don't know.
I do realize those may be brighter,
but I just don't like those color combinations.
I know it was weird because I love color,
but I don't know.
Nothing else just really spoke to me in this collection.
I think that the multiple chips are cute,
but I kind of have that style already.
I really am not interested in getting another
color scheme in the same style.
I don't know.
It was just me.
This collection was really a big disappointment to me.
I know a lot of people love it,
but I don't feel like I need to get something
from every single collection.
It's just not realistic, and...
(man popping lips)
- [Man] Nice.
- [Candace] For this, I do plan on returning it,
but I do plan on getting things
in place of it off my wishlist.
Maybe the Palm Springs mini, maybe I think
you call them the Louis earrings.
That might be wrong, don't quote me.
But it's the big hoops with the LV.
I've been wanting those for forever.
So I'm like trading this in towards the hoops,
but this is definitely going back, because I don't like it.
- [Michael Scott] No, god!
- [Candace] It kind of sucks,
because these aren't available in store.
Like you would have had some pre-order it to get it.
So somebody is going to be really lucky to get this,
that really loves it more than I do,
but I'm definitely not keeping it.
I've come to terms with that.
Also, as far as other details, it's made in France,
that is on the outside of the bag, at the bottom there.
That's just on that side, but it just too many...
Okay, so, oh.
The zipper.
I can't get past why don't we put this cheap zipper on here.
But I'm gonna end the video now.
I will link another similar video too then right here.
If you have any questions about this bag,
leave me them down below, questions about anything else,
comments about anything, requests, et cetera.
All of that, let me know.
Also my lip of the day will be in the
description bar as well linked for you.
Talk to you soon.
Thank you for watching!
