I had marked this as my shopping list since mid of 2018...after I saw this video, I dropped it from my list. Till I went Japan early this mth and saw the mini faye backpack...they were just too cute for you to resist...despite the worry of the same problem of the awkward sitting on the back, I got myself 1! Love it so much...And no regret...get the mini one if you really love the design of this bag... Quite light weight too!

Congrats, girl!! Amazing!! The mini is definitely super cute!! It even crossed my mind one time or another to get one, but was always skeptical of how much I could carry with it. I hope you enjoy your beautiful new bag

Ermegherd! I’m glad you brought up the fact that sit sits so funny on the back. That’s a dealbreaker for me.

Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful and informative video! I've been eyeing and debating between the Faye mini and small backpack. Unfortunately, it seems like Chloe stopped making these and I'd have to buy from a third party. I have the same peeve of backpack purses tilting backwards and sitting awkwardly like that, it's such a deal breaker. I wouldn't have known that stuff can fall outwards easily with it's magnetic clasp at certain angles; definitely only someone who has have user experience would know. Same goes for the sagging structure over time. Do you think the mini version would have lesser of these problems, only because it's smaller, hence less weight, and a smaller opening?

Thanks so much for this honest review. Definitely made me not interested in buying it anymore. 😅 I’m buying the $25 dupe on Amazon instead, because on that one the backpack straps can be completely removed and the opening actually has a zipper to keep my items inside. ❤️
@ling1225 жыл бұрын
Wohooo! good choice! I've seen some great dupes out there and was even contemplating it prior to getting this one. The zipper is soooo important, so I'm glad you were able to find the perfect bag! Enjoy!!

Omg this video was very helpful. I didn't realise this backpack would sit awkward. That is my one gripe with backpacks; they have to sit snug and close to my body. I had to punch extra holes on strips for some backpacks...but I would hesitate to do this on a almost 2k bag! Thanks again for the honest bag review!

have you tried putting like things into the bag? i was just thinking that the heavy chains and buckle might be the reason why its sitting weirdly, unless you've already tried carrying the bag with something in it already :)
@ling1226 жыл бұрын
pinksabers yup!! the buckle and chain are the main reasons why the bag is so heavy and slumps to the front. If you watch until the end, I actually stuff the bag with items and it helps a bit! However I noticed that as I walk, the bag starts to slip back again :(

hey gurl! the creasing really isn't that bad :) all soft leather bags have some sort of creasing or sag to them. If you allow the beautiful aspects of the bag overpower this setback, I know you'll love the bag regardless. Lemme know what you decide :)

excellent and honest review! I also wanted to love it, ordered it three times and always sent it back because of those reasons. the fourth time I got it on sale for -40% and ended up keeping it. I am currently using it (second day) and I feel like I should have invested in something else... but I really still like the look of it and the colour that I got it in. well, maybe it will grow on me :D keep doing those reviews! :)

I bought it on sale. they do insane summer and winter sales in major online shops in Europe. you just have to be fast and snatch the items :D in the meantime I have been carrying the backpack for some time and I am liking it more and more :) I am just not using it as a backpack. I only use the shoulderstrap. that way I really enjoy using it :)

Hello, sweet girl, as I know this video is a bit old but I am now just on the hunt for one of these bags (and came across your amazingly informative video) and as I am sure you well know that they are no longer making this EXACT style to where I can purchase it brand new sadly. My apology...to get to my point...I heard you say in your AMAZING review on this bag that you may want to possibly sell this bag at some point, so I was just possibly wondering if you still owned it and if so would you like to sell it? If you do and again might possibly be ready to, I can give you my email and we can txt through there if you are ok with that just for a lil' more privacy!.....Thank you kindly in advance for taking the time to read this and I hope to hear back from you either way! Have a very Blessed and Gorgeous Day today! 🙏😉 Missi Boyd XO 🎀💜

Brandy Schade I totally agree that this is a cute and chic backpack! hence why I purchased it in the first place, but after using it for a couple of months I realized some things about it that didn’t work for me as a daily work bag. Definitely not throwing shade at this bag because it is beautifully designed and made. If I were looking for a utilitarian backpack, this wouldn’t be my first choice lol! Hope you enjoy the bag!!
