Louis Vuitton Artsy MM Review 2015

[@Archana-z8b]

My husband bought me my first luxury handbag in 2012 and it was this bag. I still have it in 2021 and love this bag. Still looks brand new And loving it

[@Shrimpfriedriice]

3 years ago I used to work at a salon and my boss offered me a ride home, and she told me “oh! Can you grab my purse?!” And so I reached for the bag nonchalantly and thought “wow! This handle is comfortable (it was the Damier Azur Artsy MM) and years later I finally bought one! 🌝❤️ im so excited to wear it (mines is in monogram! 😊)

[@samanthaferraro9105]

This bag would look FAB in Damier EBENE!!!! I feel that it would wear it really well.

[@Minks4All]

+Samantha Ferraro That would be my DREAM!!! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@samanthaferraro9105]

You are soo welcome! You have been my bag inspiration since I started watching you a whilleeeee ago(: Thanks so much for being you!

[@brightsmiles3792]

I have the bag and I have zero cons :). Love my bag

[@vowens6598]

My wife has this gorgeous bag and it DOES NOT fall over when it is empty. It does stands straight up when empty. She keeps a small pillow in it when not in use. Folding it to put it in the dust bag is what’s causing yours to fall over when empty due to the permanent creasing you are making on the sides. Purchase a larger dust bag to keep its shape being stored with pillow inside.

[@SimplyTique]

This was very helpful! Can you do an update review?

[@letitbe7841]

Just found you and subscribed..I love designer handbags and I Adore Louis Vuitton💜💜💜💜

[@apugirl04]

Great review as always Minnie! This is very helpful to anyone who is thinking about purchasing this bag. I have this bag in the empreinte leather that I purchased pre-loved through a friend who only used the bag a handful of times. Too good of a deal pre-loved to pass up! Glad I did because it has become one of my favorite bags! I have noticed that in the empreinte leather that it does not slouch/sag when sitting on its own. Maybe the leather provides a little more structure??? That said it is a little more on the heavy side but not as heavy as my Saint Laurent sac du jour. The Artsy is definitely a beautiful bag as you stated that may or may not be for everyone. Best of wishes as you move forward with your decision on keeping or selling! :)

[@Minks4All]

+Amber Fowler Thank you so much for sharing Sweetie :) Xoxoxoxo

[@patyperez1970]

I want one of these bags! :) I do love the way it slouches.

[@PumpkinToast420]

My hubby just bought me one for my birthday tomorrow. I have the same ideas for pros and cons - for the shoulder I would actually hand carry instead on those hot days. It's a very comfy hand carry and I just wrapped the handle in a scarf. :-). Great review. Thanks!!!

[@yvonnewhite57]

where did you get your organizer from

[@nicoleperrelli1605]

I love this bag so much I have 4 of them Three in the different campuses and one in the leather the dark blue monogram and I’m sucks black with the blue interior of the lights stripes in it

[@courtneydeeneen7564]

I just found your channel and I'm loving your reviews on LV bags. I'm looking to purchase my first LV and your review was very helpful. Going to hit the subscription button.

[@Cloudburst2000]

I like the slouchiness but then again I love that look; hence, me love for Balenciaga. I love a good structured bag too, but the slouchiness does not turn me off. I am eyeing this bag in damier azur for next spring/summer.

[@Minks4All]

+Cloudburst2000 I love this bag in Damier Azur! Thank you so much for watching Sweetie Xoxoxo

[@VidaLuxeRN]

Hi! Love your videos…been a fan of yours…. Question, how is your bag holding up now in 2023? I am thinking of purchasing the old model from Vestaire. I hear they re-created the old model due to cracking hence the vachetta around the edge. How’s yours now? Any tips on care of the old model artsy?

[@honeyisnatural5]

The most helpful video yet. In terms l of the strap drop. I hope mine starts to slouch and sag sooner than later.

[@lunasalvatore2692]

also found a cute gucci tote first time ever that i like gucci but yeah it has blue details and handles and blue is my favorite color was pink as a little girl and changed to blue when i was 11

[@armhay1981]

Went back to this video since I’m starting to look at totes/hobes/big bags! I’m over mini bags lol You’re so informative then, and just as you are now. Long time follower! ❤️

[@sloanchessman5783]

Very helpful Minnie....thank you for your honesty. Was thinking about getting this bag, but didn't have enough information to make a concrete decision. After watching your video, I've decided that I will not be adding the Arsty to my collection.

[@elissazidek4889]

Just curious to know if you ever experienced the canvas on this particular bag flaking? I own this bag and was so excited to get but less than a month later noticed flaking in several spots. Flaking that is sort of whitish. I took it in back into the store and they were very rude and basically said I had done something to it. And that it would come off with a damp cloth. It didn’t. I haven’t carried it since because the flaking areas are very noticeable. It made me furious! Especially because it’s quite pricey. So disappointing and just sad.

[@jjpatter84]

Good review. I have a 2012 Artsy I purchased new. I thought the con was the handle. I had a hard time keeping it on my shoulder and stopped using it. I thought it was me but see that the handle ends up modeling after use. Time to break it out! Thanks again.

[@Yogabunneee]

Hey, how did the handle break in? Did it roll off your shoulder in the beginning? Thanks!

[@noemiacevedo2062]

I have this bag and love it beautiful bag

[@rimonarotem]

Hi Minnie, I would like to know how you are advising to clean the handle to keep it clean and looking new?

[@rimonarotem]

I am asking for the artsy bag handle….

[@gia9811]

I own this I have been sitting on the fence about selling it but I just can't let it go. I would never be able to to replace it and I have looked at the latest tote and the Gaia thinking that would be my replacement but no go on both. The slouchiness doesn't bother me but the organization does lol. Good luck on making your decision.

[@Minks4All]

+Gia Thanks Sweetie, you too! xoxoxo

[@enpazmino]

Very good info. I've wanted this bag since it came out (2009?) but never got it bc my lifestyle didn't permit it. Now years later and two babies under two, it's still not practical lol. In any case it's on my wish list for when the kids are maybe a year older where I don't need to carry all their junk around lol anyway love your vids

[@Minks4All]

+E Pazmino Thank you so much Sweetie :))

[@Sanikirang]

Great vid. I'm thinking about purchasing the artsy mm in Damier azure but if it's so close to your body....yikes, dat color transfer doeeee. Hmmmm.

[@Minks4All]

+niki san Thank you so much for watching :) Yes, the color transfer is something to think about :(

[@sabrh5576]

Good Minnie, hope you are having a fab Tues. also. Always loved the Artsy and glad to hear your comments. I've been wanting this for a few years. I have to choose between the Artsy and Metis Pochette. Which do you think? I have a Speedy 30 Mono and want DE Neverfull.

[@Minks4All]

+Sabriyah B Thanks! Both are great! Its all a matter of versatility and if you need to be hands free :)

[@darthsuperman49]

After watching your video three times I'm still on the fence about selling my Artsy GM. It's a huge bag and can get heavy. It's beautiful but it's so big. I think this bag was meant to wear at the elbow and crook of the arm and is not really a shoulder bag. First world problems......

[@sarakozaily338]

What did you end up doing? If you sold it did you regret it? It gets soo bulky when you put several things in it. Love the bag so much but I might have to sell it

[@mistywilcox6937]

If you sell I am interested

[@darthsuperman49]

Sara Kozaily I sold it no regrets and now thinking about mm

[@joyt.3982]

I just ordered this beautiful bag in the DA print for spring & summer. I'm so excited.

[@maybailey3270]

I have the same bag and I love my bag so much

[@justme8837]

It is a beautiful bag. I am a structured bag girl but I can appreciate the beauty of this bag. Thanks for the review and have a great week!

[@Minks4All]

+Celita Guia Me too, that's why it makes it so hard, LOL!! Thanks for watching Sweetie :)

[@susufadi419]

I don't know why I can't love this bag, my husband also bought it for me last year in July and it still in the box I didn't use it and I see no Beaty in it

[@gnssprlt.]

Could you do an updated review? Or what you think about the empreinte version of this bag?

[@pikot5746]

Hi, i just want to ask if you still have this bag? I am planning to get this artsy bag as is it really a lovely bag but withthe cons you just mention, is it worth getting this bag? Thanks

[@tacarasworld9038]

I have two leather ones noir black and the purple one discontinued

[@norwoodtiffany]

Tacara Guice How do you like the leather ones? I know it’s a little heavier but the leather is beautiful (pricy lol but beautiful) .

[@ngocdang2875]

It's a beautiful...but I dislike that there are so many pockets inside. I cant remember which pocket had what...

[@Minks4All]

+Ngoc Dang LOL!!! Thanks for watching Sweetie Xoxoxo

[@catherinesydney]

Gorgeous! I’m getting one 😍😍😍

[@Foxie635]

I just bought this bag but with python handle. It seems large but once it "grows" on you it looks good.

[@igarcia4195]

Hi! Did you end up keeping this bag?

[@annaritazehuri6440]

Hi mine did not come with the ring inside!! I bought in 2014 at LV boutique in Punta del Leste! Do you know if LV has changed!

[@jennykhau4601]

Love your review; honest, comprehensive and funny.

[@bonniejames141]

Is this bag discontinued? I went online and saw the Artsy online and has a leather band around the top but I love the one you are showing. Where can I find?

[@princessginwood1332]

Gorgeous bag! Thank you for an Amazing review! I love your videos you're so beautiful and so knowable and unbiased. About high end designer handbags.i like how you give the pro's and Cons, that is so helpful especially if you're undecided. Thank you for an Awesome video I really enjoyed it!

[@MIKEYandBESSYDEMITRO]

I am one of your Sebbys I really like your videos they're very informative can you please answer me a question I have the artsy bag I love it but I've been very frayed of cracking I really feel I need a bag organizer can you please tell me what is the best organizer you can suggest to me also I have the neverfull GM the new one with the rose Balerene interior would the same organizer fit both bag or what I need to buy to thank you very much

[@ssalinas1965]

can you share where you purchase your pre-loved bags...?

[@04092525aries]

I love this bag. How do you clean the vachetta leather?

[@Ellejaws]

Great video Minnie!!' Question... I go back and forth with my purse organizer. I take out of my speedy then put it back in...in, out, in, out 😖😖 . I was going to ask if You use one but in this video You said You don't. Is there a particular reason why you don't? Playing devils advocate...you said you like structured bags, yet you don't use any base shapers or organizers. I know without my organizer my speedy sags big time. So why wouldn't you use one if you like structure? Lots of Love xoxoxo

[@eliselovesaziz657]

Just wondering if you decided to keep this bag? Do really love it, thinking of buying it from the boutique next month...

[@noemiace9100]

Love this handbag! On my wish list

[@angelreed9825]

ANGEL I'm really really hoping you can help me with something I'm looking to purchase the porchette Matis handbag but I'm afraid that My large Adele wallet will not fit would you have any information on that I really could use your help thank you

[@paolaloera2381]

I use an organizer inside my Artsy and it keeps it from sagging.

[@Labney03]

Wherer did you get it from?

[@tracyrobbins170]

Great video! Very informative as usual! I really want this bag and so many more lol

[@Minks4All]

+Tracy Robbins Thanks Sweetie Xoxoxo

[@ksbma]

do you have the montiagne? if you do can you please make a pro and con video on it? I'm deciding if i want the artsy or montaigne

[@secretsailor5127]

Thank you for your review. You do talk fast. Is there a smaller Artsy bag?

[@popinfresh]

I just bought the artsy, and I notice the canvas on this bag is way softer than my other monogram bags. I wonder if I just got a bad one?

[@carameldiva7asmr415]

Great video and review of the LV Artsy. Awesome👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

[@cwm5316]

Great video. Beautiful bag

[@Minks4All]

+cwm53 Thank you very much for watching Xoxoxo

[@sandyrousseau5262]

hi Minnie, tou are educating me on LV as i prep for my first purchase. quick question- does the base help with the sagging on the artsy (i know she's the one, lol)? not bothered by it too much but would wanted to know thanks in advance

[@latonyacampbell9310]

This bag is on my wish list 😜

[@Minks4All]

+Latonya Campbell :)) Thanks for watching babe Xoxoxo

[@accessoriesjunkie]

Now that it has been a year...what are your thoughts on it?

[@tracyrobbins170]

Do you think the leather bag would wear better in summer with sleeveless? In case deodorant got on it?

[@Minks4All]

+Tracy Robbins I think it might be a little worse because it could dry out the leather while its still in the break in mode, but once it does, it should be fine :)

[@deadsilvermoon9964]

Do you use Apple Guarde on your bags

[@irmaavalos3037]

Thank you for dong the review for the Artsy.... I wish I did my research before I ordered it in the Damier Azure GM size....I luv the bag but I think it's just too big for my needs or I keep it and use it as a travel bag.....

[@irmaavalos3037]

I meant doing.... Lol

[@Minks4All]

+ilaluv lv Of course! Thank you so much for watching :) Xoxoxo

[@emilysilvia9514]

I have one this bag. This bag so heavy. When you put more stuff Omg so so heavy... my shoulder very sore. Pretty bag but so heavy.. I kind of regret buy this bag :(

[@christinamccollum3044]

Emily, is your bag in excellent condition? Are you wanting to sell?

[@Miss-Redbull]

I agree, its because of the loop, it is made of real leather. i love it tho 💗👌🏽

[@MSpanders10]

Good review sweetie, the Artsy is truly a lovely bag.

[@Minks4All]

+MSpanders10 Thank you Love! It is :)

[@elainehoward8822]

Hi Minnie, an honest review as always, with real pros and cons... I love the look of the 'Artsy MM' but like you, have thought about a couple of the cons you raised, and now see other reasons why this bag might not be a bag for me. Of course one needs to also look at the pros, and there are plenty..... Thank you for another great video Minnie. Much love and hugz 💐🌹💐🌹💐🌹💐🌹xxxxxxx

[@Minks4All]

+Elaine Howard Thank you so much Sweetie Xoxoxo

[@alexluv2ify]

Can you see the cork (white )through the braiding?

[@milly_and_me]

You have been so very helpful to me, I love your reviews as in the past I have been an "oh I love it have to have it" kind of girl. I've actually just sold 85% of a very large collection I thought I loved!!! A lot of Coach, Furla (Italian) and Oroton (Australian) .... Now I am looking for real designer bags with quality! I am so afraid to make a wrong purchase and feel I might end up with nothing, I am very OCD and critical of everything I look at. I love what you said on Monday, that you have luxury bags but are just a regular girl who wears converse. That describes me perfectly too. Did you know that Coach now make their bags in Vietnam Phillipines and China!!!! Can you please tell me what you think of Burberry? Sorry if this is not the right place for a minks Monday question. 😀

[@Minks4All]

+Beauty Duty Thanks babe! I'm glad I have been able to help Xoxoxo

[@Stanleydragonjr]

I mean keepall,and a regular strap from Louis Vuitton called strap

[@JillbeMarie14601]

Thanks for a great well thought out review😋 I almost purchased this bag but went with the totally mm. Where do you purchase your pre loved items?

[@nataliamartinez5427]

please make a review on the pocket organiser by LV

[@Angela-Petty-Johnson77]

Do you still have this? I sold mine after about a year

[@AhlannaLaShaye]

This bag is so beautiful I think I will pass and just get another neverfull... 😔 I just want a versatile good everyday bag. I have a neverfull in the monogram but I don't want the straps to patina so I never carry it lol. But I have been considering the damier ebene because I wouldn't have to worry about patina. I am so torn 😩

[@dawnmarie9707]

Do you still have the Sully mm? I would love to see a comparison video.

[@Minks4All]

+Dawn Marie I do not, thanks for watching :)

[@stephannie24]

Where do you recommend buying pre-loved bags, and how much does it run used? I've been eyeing it, I love it!

Would you consider getting the Melie?

[@ja051207]

What Louis Vuitton bag would you think be a great first bag?! Please help

[@bneefreak]

Just found your vids and I soooo appreciate your review of this bag. My hubby bought this for me for V-Day 2014. This is my ONLY luxury bag. But now that I see your review, I know that I'm missing the D ring that is supposed to be on the inside. The bag was purchase from a LV boutique. What do you think I should do? Should I take it back and explain to them that I didn't know it was supposed to come with one?? I sooooo worried now. :( Mercy

[@jessicahand119]

+bneefreak you definitely should! i would call them and let them know right away! That bag is $2k , i would call most definitely and go in the store, receipt in hand and politely let them know.

[@kingtutsmuse]

+bneefreak Hi I have the artsy as well and i bought mine in 2014 too, mine does not come with the leather strap d-ring like the one shown in this video but it comes with a d-ring without the leather strap.

[@bneefreak]

+kingtutsmuse - thank you for letting me know. I was going to go back to the boutique but decided against it. I was a little intimidated.

[@nicolethymaki3282]

+bneefreak Honey, you should go and politely ask them. They are always very kind.

[@relaxedambienceatmosphere7041]

Just use the bag with no worries because if it's authentic you really shouldn't have nothing to worry about, it's really not that serious

[@cindyacevedo3170]

Will u sell this piece ?

[@roxannereyes5102]

I LOVED my Arsty but since it wasn't an everyday handbag for me. I unfortunately did sell her bought myself a GM NF which was more my style. The Artsy is so classy and elegant and I felt I had to dress up often to take her out.😁 Another con for me was that I had to take off my shoulder when I needed to get into it. 🙄

[@sabrh5576]

was trying to say "Good morning"
