"Made In Italy" Bags Can Be Overrated | FT. Little Liffner | Indie Mid-Range Bag Brand Unboxing

[@MarysRoom]

Super helpful review! This is one of those brands I've been seeing on social media, especially the tulip tote was one I was even considering. Thanks for making me reconsider😂

[@Somehowadulting]

Maybe I got a one off bag that's terrible quality? I'm not sure. I'm not being extra critical am I? I mean, I did show all the actual flaws with it. So I'm not being crazy. But yea, the tulip bag is actually really cute. If you do decide to try it, make sure whenever you're buying from has a good return policy.

[@jhw0101]

YKK is the famous zipper brand that many famous bag and luggage manufacturers use. It costs a lot in terms of design fees, most importantly the minimum quantity it requires, in order to design your own zipper pull.

[@Somehowadulting]

Yes the YKK zip was quite smooth but it just doesn't look aesthetically nice. But for a bag that retails for $650 I expected more. Even Polene at 400ish had prettier zipper pulls.

[@bagsandlifestyle]

Interior lining and hardware are my biggest pet peeves with some of these “affordable” luxury brands. Thanks for sharing.

[@Somehowadulting]

Yea one new thing I look out for now is the lining. It needs to be sewed to the base of the bag. I don't need a piece of fabric lapping around inside.

[@everynowandthen4864]

Thank you so much!!! I was going to buy it in brown and you saved me my money!

[@Somehowadulting]

Girl I got you! Yes i was horrified when I saw this.

[@JHT99]

Wow, yes, seeing this bag makes me appreciate the better-constructed bags. I can't believe that was a $650 retail bag. Seems it should be priced under $100 for sure given all those issues.

[@Somehowadulting]

Yea even under a hundred. I would still hesitate on spending that kind of money.

[@IrisLA1]

Oh my! So glad you reviewed this! I was looking at this bag because I like the clasp -- and I love to eat macaroni :)

[@Somehowadulting]

It would have been the perfect bag for all of us. I guess not anymore

[@kaledonia1983]

Thank you so much. You saved my money :D I want to mention also that my Max Mara Plage bag bought from Luisaviaroma is also poor quality and I regret not returning it .

[@Somehowadulting]

Glad my video helped! Yea when in doubt. Always return!

[@lihwaliu6767]

I like your help us to void which bags not to buying .❤

[@Somehowadulting]

Glad I can provide some guidance! At least I only lost 18 bucks and not 350ish. Good thing it wasn't final sale.

[@chrisa6737]

Oh wow, I almost bought this bag in tan from the SSENSE sale but decided to pass on it. Super shocked about the quality, thanks for this video!

[@Somehowadulting]

Right??? Lol you could've tried to buy from ssense. They've disappointed you to buy canceling. At least you didn't get the double disappointment like I did hahaha

[@chrisa6737]

For me, I didn’t like how thin the strap was and how it attached to the bag. I didn’t even realize the strap wasn’t long enough for crossbody 🤯 I hope the return process is a super smooth one for you 🤞

[@Somehowadulting]

@chrisaqa6737 right? It was awkwardly short even for a shoulder bag. I'm still waiting for the refund. I sent it back a week ago. Reminds me. I gotta follow up!

[@everynowandthen4864]

If you want a nice mid range bag, check out Leo et Violette or Songmont

[@Somehowadulting]

Check out my recent videos...I got one 😆

[@WinnieBeeLV]

Wow! Yeah this is all wrong! Someone told me (probably Jackie) that parts of the bag can be made from all over and they can then choose where to put the made in from tag, like what country or region. Crazy! I do love the concept with the little macaroni clasp! I like that! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Somehowadulting]

That's kind of deceiving right? I feel like whoever has the last touch on it should be responsible for the overall quality. But that's just me. I guess it really just comes down to quality control. Overall decent design, poor execution. I sound like I'm on shark tank lol

[@myluxurycloset529]

Congrats on 1000!!! You are well on your way to 2000 already🎉🎉🎉

[@Somehowadulting]

Yesss hopefully I'll get there soon!!!

[@tracy2cents]

Thank you for sharing this, very helpful. I almost pull the trigger to purchase the exactly bag. It indeed looks very cheap😢

[@Somehowadulting]

Thanks goodness you saw my review!!! Avoid at all cost girl!!

[@BeautyLuxeLover]

That bag had so much potential! Hasta La pasta! 😂👋 Congrats on 1K! 🎉

[@Somehowadulting]

I had high hopes because the design was really cute. But alas, it didn't work out. Thanks! Super excited to hit this milestone.

[@myluxurycloset529]

The glazing is atrocious - I've experienced glazing like this from Teddy Blake (not the Stella, which I have showed on my channel, but another style called the Bella)....YKK is a good brand of zipper, but WHY would you not put the brand name on the pull or NOTHING??? Great review - thank u! ❤❤❤

[@Somehowadulting]

Yes!! YKK is really good. I just find it ridiculous that you wouldn't customize your own zipper pull. The glazing...I was in disbelief

[@cathavenicethings]

Enter giveaway. USA. Return that macaroni bag. You can buy some Kraft mac and cheese for like a dollar. It won't taste that great unless you're a toddler but it won't make you angry like the bag.

[@cathavenicethings]

Your nails match the MZ Wallace bag!

[@Somehowadulting]

It's already been sent back. I'm like NOPE. I don't need this negativity and anger in my life 😂 hey! I love kraft Mac and cheese. But I did recently find the one from Aldi with the squeeze cheese. That one is even better.

[@maddie5851]

I almost bought this.. this was ssoo helpful

[@Somehowadulting]

Glad my video helped! I can't believe how bad it was.

[@rebeccadaniels7046]

That is REALLY bad, which is sad because the design has such potential! Did you let them know? I took a chance ordered a little picotin style bag from a KZbin and absolutely fell in love with it. The quality is outstanding! I keep meaning to post a pic on instagram because I have never seen an influencer that has purchased a bag from them. Anyway, I guess you never know! Cheers! And I’m so excited for your adventures to Paris! 💗🦋💗

[@Somehowadulting]

I bought it from Lusvisaroma. I don't think they care. I just got my refund today so that's good. I'll keep a look out for your post on the new bag.. hurry up and post it. No pressure lol Yes oui oui!

[@Minimeowzilla]

is it just me or is the zipper pocket also not centred but displaced to the left?

[@Somehowadulting]

It's got all kinds of problems

[@CrazyBagLady]

Omg i have been watching you for while and haven’t subscribed 😅 *subscribed immediately Gurl MICHAEL KORS’s bag looks better wayy better than that bag (I refused to write the name lol) And thats a shade 🌳

[@Somehowadulting]

Oh for sure!!! I don't wear these contemporary brands anymore but now that ive seen how horrible this bag was, I can definitely appreciate even the outlets MKs, Kate Spade etc more!

Hi, love your video. Enter Giveaway - I am from the US. So disappointing, shouldn’t need to experience this expecting on a nice/ new quality bag.

[@Somehowadulting]

Hi Joyce! It was quite disappointing. I had high hopes. Good luck on the drawing!

[@dawnlovescouture2644]

That’s a hot mess! I personally don’t care at all where something is made, it means nothing. There are good and bad factories all over the world and workers everywhere who know how to sew. Made wherever is meaningless.

[@Somehowadulting]

I use to be like, oh it must be made in Spain, Italy, or France but now I just care more about quality. You're absolutely right.

[@dawnlovescouture2644]

@@Somehowadulting Exactly!!!

[@CrazyBagLady]

Enter giveway, Indonesia (the new go to country for Coach, kate spade and Michael Kors production or dare i say in advance no 2 fave factory for Tapestry 😂)

Apa kabar? dari mana? Saya tinggal di bandung tujuh tahun. Ok that's all the Indonesian I have left. I can still haggle pretty well tho 😂😂😂

[@CrazyBagLady]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@Somehowadultingok pretty good for 7yrs in bandung since haggling is a requirement in Indonesia 😂. Do you miss bandung?

[@Somehowadulting]

@@CrazyBagLady I miss the foodddd. Maybe I should make a food trip back there. But going from the states..that journey is just so long.

Please enter giveaway 😊 thank you. Hopefully you get free return shipping

[@Somehowadulting]

I did lose 18 dollars on shipping. But it included free returns. Good luck on the drawing!

[@amelhalliday8777]

Couldn’t agree more, I purchase the smaller version and it was hands down the worst quality I have come across. The leather was awful. I have seen better quality bags at Target 😂

[@Somehowadulting]

Omg right??? I mean I was kind of shocked how bad it was.

[@bagsaddicted]

Enter giveaway,Italy. I'm Sorry for this bad experience with made in Italy 😢

@@Somehowadulting Yup I did thank you sis

[@loyayyay]

Oh no, that's baaaaad. 🫣 Btw, can't believe how expensive they are over there, here they're like $540 full retail incl. tax. TFS, with all things already structurally wrong, I'm gonna pass on this.

[@Somehowadulting]

Uncle sam wants their cut 🤣 340 is a lot but I would never pay 650 retail for this bag. Maybe 50-80 bucks at the most. Hopefully the little liffner see this and make some changes. If they reach out to me to show me a better quality bag to review. I would not say no 😂
