DIOR BOBBY BAG - WORTH IT?? - all facts, prices, quality // the geek is chic

[@cat_pb]

This seems like my type of bag~ elegant but practical!

[@sunnyray4065]

I'm being careful with Dior atm because they keep changing their logo typography. If you buy a £1500+ bag and then they change the typography again, you're left with a bag that doesn't age well. This is why I like Saint laurent because their logo on the bags is still YSL.

[@AnUrbanGypsy]

Sunny Ray - I hope they stick with the one they currently have as this one is so nice and I think fits their more elegant styles.

[@sashibach6974]

This was a wonderful review. I just purchased the Bobby because it is so timeless so I was happy to hear you agree. I love it.

[@shakyrashakeena2536]

I do not like the bag and sadly I am put off by bags that are pushed by influencers. Particularly, if the bag doesn’t have a history at the fashion house. Bags such as the Chanel 2.55 (reissue), Celine’s Classic Box, Dior’s Saddle and Prada’s Re-Edition in my opinion are iconic as they have established a history at the fashion house predating them being pushed by influencers. Thank you for the detailed video on Dior’s latest creation. ❤️😍

[@LA-yi1om]

I feel the same; I really don't like bags that are gifted to so many influencers and are seen over and over on instagram until I cannot stand them anymore. I also prefer bags that are iconic as opposed to the new trendy bags

[@HerdezTown]

My mom bought one LYXBAG and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.

[@angiel1447]

I really like this bag, I have always loved this shape. The pricepoint though, not a fan. I would rather get the Celine box bag at this price range. Also, it puts me off (and ticks me off) that they have given it already to so many influencers.

[@meghan4549]

I was thinking that exact same thing! I've wanted the Celine Classic for over a year, and it offers so much more than the Bobby. It's understated, whereas I suspect this CD logo will eventually get changed.

[@freshagain96]

I will definitely go with the Celine Box bag for the price point

[@mariagabbott]

@@meghan4549 I'm kinda sick of Dior's constant logo changes

[@meghan4549]

@@mariagabbott I feel the same. I do like this symmetrical CD logo, but I think they're shooting themselves in the foot. I'm just not willing to pay that price for a brand that constantly rebrands! I do love my other Dior pieces, and I love their in-store experience. The bar jacket is still on my wishlist.

[@dinavienna]

I have the Celine box and love it ! Would not go for this .. reminds me of a design chloe would do ..

[@tiramisu2506]

I didn’t think much of this bag at first, but now it is really starting to grow on me, especially in tan color ❤️

[@AS-us5qf]

Im a girl working in AI/tech/finance who also tries to be chic. I bought the Bobby in Medium as my first Dior Bag last month. I just discovered your channel and your reasoning is on point with mine. Subscribed !!

[@artfolly]

Sound analysis as always! I'm not a fan of the influencer push for this bag, it's the first bag that I've seen where everyone I follow has been sent one and that just puts me off. It's not my style generally as I'm not about the boho look & if I were, I think Chloé caters to that niche pretty well already (as you alluded to). I appreciate the genuine review of this bag though!

[@beyoncepadthai6607]

Not the first. Dior did this with the saddle and the 30 Montaigne. This turns me off from its allure to purchase.

[@artfolly]

@@beyoncepadthai6607 yeah, they're everywhere, but this is the first time I've really noticed. I also don't think the push for the 30 Montaigne was as big in the UK, or maybe I'm not following the right people!

[@suzannem5495]

I got the medium with the canvas recently and I LOVE IT!! I have been holding off on the Lady Dior because I wanted something more practical and versatile - I can dress it up or down. A big thumbs up for me!

[@pennylife5042]

I have the grained calfskin bobby and it's so versatile. I wear it all the time and the shape remains it's so well made. No marks, no stretch marks and Im pretty rough with my bags.

[@LoveladyLaforge]

My mom bought one eastlisa and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.

[@maize5315]

Thank you for that awesome review of CD bobby bag im sold..❤

[@M3l155a]

Simple: not worth it. Bags given to influencers for free will never be worth the retail price. This bag will be hyped up now and forgotten within a year. Dior bags in general don’t have longevity nor good resale value. It’s a pretty shape but nothing new.

[@nj1624]

Exactly

[@lilpiepie]

Yup! Totally agree. I would not spend money on anything that the so-called influencers get for free.

[@dissolved29]

I feel like those newer styles from Dior are more ‚novelty bags’, if you know what I mean. Good for IG photos, but not so practical. The Montaigne, the Saddle, the book tote, now this one. At least this one seems actually usable.

[@lovher]

Which influencers r getting for free? How can I know which ones t cheapened by influencer freebies? This comment literally made me stop buying a bobby lol

[@monamalek2]

Tbh many people buy bags to wear them with no intentions to sell them

[@monicagouldby7525]

Great review as always! The best part of my Sunday! I'm beginning my journey in the luxury handbags and have been watching and re-watching your videos. I am trying to get a classic style from each of the designers, Chanel, Dior, etc. I was wondering if you can share your expertise and mindful spending habits on which bags to start with from each of the main designers...for instance, I would be thinking Lady Dior, Fendi Peek-a-Boo, Louis Vuitton Pochette Metis, Channel Classic Flap and also love, love, the Channel 19 Flap!!!! I would love to hear how you begin to build a collection.

[@meghan4549]

It's crazy that we now think having a strap is a pro and not just expected! I have a guitar strap, and I suspect many people will be excited to get one or make additional use of the one they have. I'm just not wild about the Bobby. I would rather put the money towards the Celine classic in box leather, maybe preloved. Yes, it's casual but can we really use it like a "casual" bag? Box leather cannot handle getting caught in the rain. It will get scratched and creased. The glazing is more susceptible to cracking along the top. Don't get me wrong, I love box calfskin - but it would wear very quickly if actually treated like a casual bag, and I would like to think I treat all of my items nicely.

[@valeriemorris1585]

I saw this bag prior to the influencer push. Fortunately for me I still haven’t seen too many with this bag. I like the simplicity of it and use for every day. I’m a fan of the medium in oblique. I think it’s a shape that will stand the test of time. The price isn’t the best but it’s definitely one I would like to get. Appreciate this video🤗

[@Kaye88326]

I personal love it. I’m always a to go and jeans kinda gal. I love that it’s functional yet discreet everyday smaller bag. Less makes it more classy for me. Just lik my GG interlock. Thank you for this one.

[@ivanpoldrugac3510]

Love the bag but the whole campain was overkill for me 😪 love the SL Kaia bag

[@nj1624]

Yes asking alot of influencers to promote the bag is tacky!!!

[@nikkicleope7121]

I love your explanation and personal experience trying the bag. Thank you, it’s helpful since where i live shops are still closed. It reminds me of the Celine box bag or Gucci 1955. But i really like your alternative picks from ysl and chloe. Those are def timeless looks at a better price. Love your videos!

[@reshmihundal6180]

Hi Evelyn, I found your channel only last month and I'm almost all the way done with every video. I haven't seen a video (influencer or blogger) that resonates with me more than you. The content is always well organized, researched and intelligently delivered with humor and your style is super elegant and modern. I love the neutral colors and minimalist and classy jewelry. The only problem is waiting for the next video to pop up in my youtube feed. Keep up the great work.

[@sashibach6974]

I agree! This is my favorite channel!

[@DaniOchannel]

I think it looks really good on you. And good on you for being so thoughtful about your luxury purchases! Please do a video once you buy it. I personally like the look of the bag. There's a very vintage vibe about it, reminds me of bags I carried 20 years ago.

[@Padudie]

I think the YSL bag speaks to me more than the Bobby bag.

[@carol8709]

I do really like this bag....I would love to see in person. The creasing makes me nervous and smooth leather. I debated this bag knowing if I got the medium...preferred size...I have an oblique guitar strap from my sadde that would work....BUT i love the brown one the best so forget that! It does make me debate between the puzzle and the bobby as that is the drawback on the puzzle it stands out from the body. Decisions!! Thanks for another great video showing the bag in person experience for those of us not near a store!

[@ladypsrn5218]

I love Dior bags,especially the vintage ones,the quality is always amazing.

[@anaritavariz7816]

Thank you so very much for all the information shared in this vídeo!i didn't saw the bag already but my eye loved it at first sight because it is practical yet elegant!

[@misskirkby2820]

Really appreciate your informative review. I was a bit put off the Bobby originally by so many influencers appearing to have been #gifted one, but it’s really grown on me and I am tempted to treat myself to one - the oblique jacquard is my favourite!! Glad you also mentioned that it’s light weight, I have made the mistake of buying bags in the past which have literally been a pain in the neck and rendered themselves unusable due to being so heavy (yes, Smythson and Mulberry, I am looking at you!!).

[@smolcat66]

This was extremely informational, subbed! Also I love your accent!

[@Chuchutrain4966]

I saw another KZbinr (Kat L) mention that the Dior Bobby looks exactly like the JW Hulme legacy bag-- I took a look at the JW Hulme site and the bags look almost identical (!!!) It seems like the JW Hulme design has been around for 50+ years too. Personally, I might go for the JW Hulme one which looks to have a more timeless design and is a bit more understated. It's also 1/10th the price too.

[@allisagreen1746]

It's absolutely gorgeous, but at that pricepoint, the design needs to be iconic for me. However, I love this style of bag. There are a couple from DeMellier London that look similar at a fraction of the Bobby price. DeMellier's Vancouver and Venice styles come to mind.

[@sophitia0226]

and there it is: the first Dior Bag on my Wishlist... this bag is right up my alley 🙈 Thx for your review and honest opinion

[@suzanneobrien1060]

I do like this bag, but if I was going for a knockabout everyday satchel I'd go for a Coach.

[@amytillman2609]

So informative! Thank you! I am considering the medium in tan and the video was so helpful😊

[@Buttercookiesssss]

For months i have been going to and fro between bobby and celine triomphe.. But i love bubby for the easy magnetic closure and backpocket!! I love how easy the strap adjustment is too. Now just debating on the size. The new East West, small or mini ❓🤔

[@StyledByGwenny]

It's a very elegant bag, perhaps too elegant for me! Love your look today Evelyn, I always do but the shoulder pads are giving me classy confidence vibes! 🤩

[@karenmyers3672]

I agree with your comments and observations. I think it is a great bag. I am interested in what color you liked the best, was it the camel that you tried on? Thanks!

[@sophierodrigues4507]

You should do a video o think on how to start a good capsule luxury wardrobe! How to start/what to buy and where. :))

[@FreyaJohannaX1995]

Thanks for taking the time/ effort to go into the store to give an in depth review! Kinda like this bag🤍 my first reaction was rejection because of the influencer marketing but it really grew on me

[@AnUrbanGypsy]

I agree that this could be a timeless bag, the silhouette is lovely for a classic. The CD logo is also very well suited to this style. I wish the strap fastenings to the bag were more delicate.

[@LesleyAdina]

Congrats on 14k on KZbin 🥳 Also really enjoyed your first impression on the Bobby. I’m not a fan of the bag. Looks a little too boho in my opinion. Like a Chloé bag with a CD logo.

[@ShinTwombly]

LYXBAG I love you so much and watching your videos makes my day brighter

[@tamarfischer283]

why don't you check out the kaai ikon bag? It costs just 420 euro is made of beautiful leather and perfect Italian craftmanship. It is practical and beautiful inside and out with NO branding

[@nguyet9225]

I have not held the Bobby bag yet but I have a feeling that you are correct in that the bag is very well made and the leather quality seems superb. However its a style that I would wear everyday and would not want to pay designer price for. I can think of other bags that I would rather splurge on and take for the weekend like a small lady Dior or Chanel mini.

[@emanuelesilveira7457]

Hi, loved your video, so informative! Thanks for sharing so many details.

[@vandakat]

This bag looks wayyy better on you than just as a stand-alone photo! I will wait to see if/when you get it, and please to a review of you do! It’s a very nice bag! TFS!

[@SimpleCasualChic]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the bag! It caught my eye as well

[@dhans6015]

I hope they bring it out in the grained leather...it would be perfect ❤

[@nee5hap]

great great review. even though im barely even 1% interested in this bag, thought id watch it knowing it would be super informative so thank you for that. Would love to see your version of the chanel 19 bag review-- im on the fence about buying it. As a top handle lover, would you recommend the chanel 19 or go for another bag? xx

[@damsden2582]

I have the medium Bobby in blue. I love it, but it does scratch.

[@sandragams]

Thank you for your time and all the work you did! Amazing review, so useful 🙏❤

[@mariagabbott]

So many labels are releasing mini messenger bags this year like this: Louis Vuitton pont 9, YSL solferino, Celine triomphe & classic box bag, Chloe C and now Dior bobby bag. Maybe chains strap bags are phasing out 🤷‍♀️

[@vanessabuchsenmeister95]

i loooooove the video this was so informative, thank you!!! also, i completely agree with you, it is a nice everyday bag but it is not revolutionary, however, it seems like you could actually fit quite a lot in the bag! :)

[@annyharahap]

Agree with your analysis on this bag. I have tried the medium and the small, and I think the small one is nicer on my body. Love the leather and the built, so simple and elegant yet casual. Tfs 💓

[@imsogladtobe]

oh my god. i remember buying my saddle bag when it first came out years ago... it was 840 euro (cognac leather). and now they cost 2600 euro! what happened?!?! xD i even have the crossbody saddle bag. it did cost 1.300 euros... this is insane. i dont believe the whole production process changed that much.

[@raquel_cb_]

It’s a nice bag. But for me not worth the price. I think the YSL is a better choice. Depends on the budget of each one!

[@chermainetan]

I've never owned any Dior bags. Been trying really hard to like at least like one of their bags, but I'm still not convinced with the Bobby. ☹️ Which is such a shame cos I've heard so many good things about their outstanding customer service and workmanship!

[@susangoldman1464]

Hi’ can you share the brand of the white skirt from the Dior store? x

[@jacquelinemoss1911]

Great review, I am not able to see it in person myself and have been really in two minds about it for the same reasons you are. It is a timeless style but there’s nothing exciting about it either however I feel like it would really work well into my wardrobe in the Camel or White as I wear a lot, A LOT 😂 of Zimmermann and I feel it would go well with that style.

[@maggyxchuu]

Im really debating on getting this bag. The craftsmanship idk I just love it. But I feel like ON it wouldn’t look good on my body frame.

[@angieN2288]

Hi Evelyn, another great video! Just curious if you have any opinions on Senreve bags, particularly the Belt Bag. I was considering that as a really casual errands bag. It’s been raved by many KZbinrs and would love to know your authentic opinion on it, if you’re willing to share of course. Thank you!

[@scarlettstilling]

Great presentation and information on this bag. Not my bag I would buy but looks ok in black.

[@gladysmorin5149]

I love it! I’m tempted to buy it but going to wait to see if they make any improvements or until the next price increase.

[@nathalienurse3336]

First of all love your hair colour and style. Second great review on this bag I personally ❤️ it, I would get the white one...........🤗🇨🇦

[@nlitenme]

Nice bag and I like the blouse you’re wearing.

[@mehreenkhawaja9930]

the full stop instead of the comma in the pricing got me for a second lol.

[@jamielu08]

I think we will be seeing an unboxing of this bag in ur future video!! Black and gold lol

[@nicolethorpe6498]

I’m not a fan of bags that are heavily pushed bu influencers because a year are so from now they diss those same bags! The YSL Kaia Mini bag is a better chose in my opinion.

[@janicevin4207]

any more videos besides bags coming up?....

[@MeaGOfficial]

You look gorgeous in this video. Black looks great on you❤️

[@viewerFAC]

This is very reminiscent of vintage Coach, you're better off perusing pre-loved/vintage collections. And if you find a Coach bag with that thick glove tanned leather, it's a bigger win with a timeless design and they will still provide cleaning and conditioning of the bag.

[@mariawelling4194]

Vintage bags are where it at!!! I love all my vintage classic bags way better!!!

[@dissolved29]

I have the Hana from See by Chloe which is a similiar style, even more affordable than the Marcie and in my opinion is way cuter, and can strongly recommend. :)

[@lorrainep-j4327]

I love the style and ease of the bag but the price point throws me off. The chloe large tess bag would be would make more since for me.

[@demerock2414]

So the blogger end up not buying the bag?

[@cocoparisienne1779]

Habe 2 Marcies und liebenswert seit langem!

[@DR17dede]

I really like the Celine 16.

[@tanyawilliams138]

I am not a fan of the bag but your top is beautiful!

[@dinavienna]

I think it s alright - I think it looks very much like a bag chloe would do ... I d Go With Chloe and pay half the price, Personally.. I quite like the white one but not worth the price tag for me

[@fstarr9923]

Thank you for the excellent review! It’s not my style but seems like a high quality bag. I don’t buy anything that is overhyped by “influencers”. They tend to influence me to purchase something else. LOL ❤️

[@BeckyBailey1]

Are you Polish?

[@ellieroberts3291]

Quite like the simple and timeless look of this, but I'm not a fan of the Dior logo!

[@dobcsek]

I quite like the look of this.

[@Trianglify]

Does this type of leather scratch easily ?

[@pennylife5042]

If you can buy this bag today, what colour would you buy?

[@heidijay5902]

I really love this bag, I first saw it in the Dior boutique in Brisbane (AUS) & fell in love with it then & have been obsessed with the brown medium ever since. However due to the marketing campaign, I’m embarrassed to buy & wear it. Maybe I’ll wait until the hype dies down & everyone looses interest in it.

[@reneschaller]

It's a very chic bag, but it's not very new in case of style. The price point is much to high for all of the sizes, but espicially for the small size. In my opinion it's a everyday style, easy to wear and to combine. But not special in case of design.

[@Magdalena-pj8jt]

I like your blouse way more than the bag.. :)

[@benjaminwong2725]

God this played SO much on my mind after it dropped on every major influencer feed. Thank god I went with a Gucci Padlock Bamboo handle instead. So overrated!

[@louc2358]

This bag just doesnt make me dream... not yet at least 😉 for a good looking practical there are many other options, for a lesser cost, as you said

[@mk1642]

It is the exact copycat of a bag I used to own a decade ago. It was from an Italian brand called Saddler's union

[@Bia1824]

You look great!

[@samsensation786]

You mentioned the creasing of the leather on the closure/lock part of the bag. Did you or anyone else on here not notice the shape of the closure?? it looks like men genitals.. once you see it you cant unsee it.

[@Buttercookiesssss]

Yeah heard many times but doesn't bother me as much as my girl says it reminds her of Squidward 😅

[@chanelmarie5048]
