Ateliers Auguste, A bag of quiet luxury? New Affordable French Brand.

[@Tenzin62]

I absolutely F*CKING LOVE that influencers like Eileen, on KZbin have rang the death knell for designers like Gucci, LV Chanel and Hermes. Steering us into these well made crafted bags. THANK YOU

[@patriciaa65]

Seriously, it’s gotten to the point where I think “do you like this bag or do you just like the label?” And everybody buys the same thing just for status

[@ColourfulNoir]

Glad you liked it! I’m really glad I have it a shot too because it is such a lovely bag xx

[@leie6748]

​@@patriciaa65I mean people can and do just like a certain label or house. And so then they like those bags. There's nothing wrong with that either. There are only like six different bags and the differences are labels and prints.

[@patriciaa65]

@@leie6748 I get that but with certain labels the prices do not reflect the quality of the bag that is made, and one has to wonder why bother wasting money on something so expensive when it isn't going to last. Just my opinion. Not my money, not my problem.

Thank you for this review! I have been researching for a while, which mid range box bag to get. This one is a winner. I received it today, and it's a good everyday bag. Fits all my daily necessities. For the price, I feel good about not being too careful around it. Leather seems to be pretty resilient and not as smooth as other box leathers that can scratch easily. Also very lightweight. Love the strong magnet. Basically everything you mentioned. Best part... looks good with any outfit.

[@catdogcarrie2]

Thank you for the wonderful, honest and insightful review of this bag! I especially appreciated your review of how important the clasp on a bag can be! I too, find that a strong magnetic clasp gives me peace of mind that I won't lose my valuables because of an error in closing my bag. I seem to be in a hurry a lot so that feature that you described in your video is one that really helped me to make my decision to purchase this lovely bag. Thank you so much for your kind, honest review!

[@Dropthesoapto]

It’s the kind of bag that easily makes the transitions from day to night. I’m also 1,60m and have painful back so I much prefer smaller and lighter bags in styles that are usable daily. There are many bags that are gorgeous on the shelves but soon we realize they are too formal to use day by day and in the end we seldom reach for them.

[@MY-kh9hx]

You are so right. I have too many bags destined to stay on the shelf.

[@ColourfulNoir]

You’ll like this! It’s light and roomy for a small bag xx

[@Nessaface02]

Can you do a comparison with this bag to the Celine Classic Bag?

[@suzannehall5200]

It’s a beautiful bag. I always like hearing about good quality contemporary brands that I have not encountered yet. I have been very impressed with the ones I do have so far from Aspinal Of London, Strathberry and Longchamp. I haven’t tried any American brands yet but brands like Tory Burch, Coach and Kate Spade have excellent republicans.

[@audreyandrea460]

Michael Kors is another American brand with a reputation for good quality, along the lines of Coach.

[@farhanaaziz]

Love this bag. Everyone keeps saying it's like the Celine box bag when we might as well say it looks like the Hermes Constance (which debut much earlier). I dislike Celine's bag base and prefer a solid flat base instead of those bags with pleats and sits on edges for a base. Thank you for this review!❤

[@gabyheon21]

I just got mine and I really like it, very good quality and affordable.

[@msgeorgejourney]

[@kimstclair1879]

Hi Eileen, this is such a beautiful bag of quiet elegance and very well priced and are interested in having a look at what this company produces. All accept 2 of my bags were packed away in their dust bags and put into storage in 2017 along with the rest if my house pack, I will not know what condition they will be in until my house pack arrives in France until 2024, pray that they will all be ok if not they will be sent to the restorers as some of them are vintage, Italian and a couple are from a maker that no longer exists. Thank you so much for all that you share about quite luxury. I've learnt such a lot and are very grateful. Cheers from Melbourne 😁

Hi, Eileen.Just discovered your channel and already loving your detailed explanations with soothing voice. According to this brand, how do you compare it with the Fauvette Paris in your opinion? And what color do you think is best for tropical place?Thanksxx Yoceline

[@edramalkiewicz]

The variety of textures in the *yutulu* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

[@flohough1870]

Very nice! Trying other brands is always good, dress for your style regardless of the brand. It looks great on you.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Totally agree!xx

[@meiltoo]

I’ve been eyeing the rounded version, similar to dior’s bobby bag. The metallic clasps was just introduced last year i think. I really wanted a pastel coloured one but there isnt any to choose from. I recently purchases the song bag from songmont. Today is the second time i use it and im pretty impressed with the quality.

[@ColourfulNoir]

I was looking at the rounded version too! It’s lovely but I went for this one because it fits my Kindle 😆

[@katrinapineda6873]

How does the leather compare to your high-end luxury bags? I can't afford high-end but have 1 preloved Givenchy and the leather is far superior (super supple despite being snooth calfskin, hard-wearing and scratch resistant) than my Coach and Kate Spades that I now want something in between.

[@ColourfulNoir]

I would say it’s very similar to my YSL xx

[@caseywong699]

Oh I love this bag! I'm going to order it soon! Thanks for the review!

[@froufou100]

I love it, but it may be too small for my essentials. I need reading glasses and sunglasses on top of the rest. Can you tell me if both could fit vertically instead or horizontally and if the bag still closes well?

They have a larger size of this bag as well on their website.

Hi Eilieen, would you recommend the pebbled leather over the smooth box leather for daily use? And black over the warm taupe/cappuccino colour? Please share your thoughts. Thank you! x

Hi! How does this one compare to Demellier vancouver bag? It looks similae

[@kitk4tsworld]

Hi! recently stumbled upon this bag and I am very interested but not much review out there. How is the leather and hardware holding up? any creasing on the straps or the flaps? What about the hardware? Recently got the grace APC and as beautiful and structured the bag is, the hardware is like scratch magnet. I barely used it and the scratches are so prominent. I am hoping this one would be better because of the "aged" look on the hardware?

[@ColourfulNoir]

Hi, this bag is actually holding up really well for me. I actually don't notice any scratches on the hardware, but there's a little scuffing on the bottom leather xx

It's a beautiful bag. I love that it is full grain leather.

LV, Chanel, Hermes et al - I've been saying for years, ubiquitous and tired. Influencers have turned them into High Street brands. I would literally feel embarrassed and awkward carrying one. I still own a Gucci Soho Disco I bought around 2014. It's quite worn but a real work horse. I like Demellier London for its buttery soft leather.

Seriously, I don't understand why everyone wants the same items. (OK, status symbols...) It's so boring that almost everyone wears the same thing. Creativity and the need to wear more unique things have almost disappeared from people.There are so many high-end products in the world, but everyone wants the same thing. For example, someone who can pay a fortune for a bag, which all rich people have, could also pay an artist to make a bag for her that no one else has. (If I were rich, I would pay mainly for unique or limited edition things, and I would support smaller manufacturers and artists, not big luxury companies.)

The fact these bags can be faked and sold at a fraction of the price just shows how much the luxury brands are ripping people off. Yes quality and materials might not be the same but some dupes are pretty good. I’ve wasted so much money on designer bags and, as a 50 year old, could have bought another house or many LYXBAG with what I’ve spent. My advice is to only buy if you can afford it plus other important things and don’t necessarily turn your nose up at a dupe!
