Wanted to share this beauty.
The entire bag including the sides and under are covered with crystals.
The bag is holding up well and I have used it several times since purchasing it last Oct.
Do see my IG reel id interested, it's truly to gorgeous to be missed.

However my Mary katranzou x Bvlgari bag, I sent it in 3 times for repairs as the handles are loose and makes the most irritating sound.
They couldn't do anything and returned the bag in original condition.
Oh no! Am so bummed to hear that. I sadly missed the Mary Katranzou x Bulgari bag, and I have been keeping an eye out incase it ever pops up on a reputable reseller platform. :(
 
Totally agree! Unless you have one loyal SA their customer service online or in store suck!
I love Bvlgari! My husband was always joking I could be their brand ambassador as I loved to waste my time once a week checking their website and each time I whine and complain how they shamelessly keep on increasing their prices. Someone please correct me if I am wrong but I think they are now more expensive than LV as you can never find a more functional bag (not referring to micro or mini or SLG) under 3k but their resale value isn't that good?

Bvlgari bags has low resale value like other brands such as Dior, YSL and Gucci.

Buy with caution and take your time to ensure you truly love the piece and with certainty that it will remain in your collection forever.
However I must say the workmanship on Bvlgari bags are much higher and if you see intense yellow gold chains on their bags, they are still plated with real gold.

Bvlgari bags are now more expensive than LV which is true, they spent a lot on signing global ambassadors such as Lisa and Anne etc
The advertising costs comes back to the consumer and their jewellery had a major price increase earlier this year.IMG_20231223_172301563~2.jpgMEITU_20240630_133225449~2.jpg

Unfortunately I didn't find the quality of their bags to be very good at all and after care is practically non existent.

Would you recommend Galuchat leather? Do you have to baby your Galuchat bags? Thanks
 
Anyone on here have any experience with the top handle bag from the picture? I only had a chance to look at the medium in store and it is such a beautiful piece. Considering this smaller size but not sure if the shape is practical and can hold a phone so anyone had a chance to inspect or won it and can help with what it fits and thoughts on the handle being metal. (I am thinking whether it scratches your jewellery if wearing rings?

Here's the dimensions of that bag 8.25"W x 4.75"H x 3.25"D. So it depends on how big your phone is. The 8.25"w is not accurate at all because they probably had measured it from the outside and not from the interior of the bag. I have an iPhone pro max and it barely fit inside I have to take the case off and place my phone in an angle. The dimension of 3.25' is tad small so this is more of an evening bag where you can only carry the most basic essentials (key , lipstick and a small card holder) if you add your phone and wallet you won't be able to close the bag and if you're lucky you were able to do it , it looks weird and deformed on the side. I was heavily considering this bag in cream after seeing it in Harrod's in London as it could be a cute wallet in chain but for some reason I didn't pull the trigger of buying it. I don't know. Maybe I don't like how small it is? Maybe the price? Too expensive for such a small bag? As for the smooth calf leather yes they scratch.
