Gorgeous! Love it! Thanks for sharing and yes if you love it that much, another one in a different colour never hurt!! ❤️ Lol
 
Personally, I don't hate anything about the bag

These are the things I like best:

1. It has a leather strap as I have to psych myself up to wear a chain strap (Chanel included)

2. It's a big little bag

3. The logo is there but it's an clever, stylish and iconic symbol that's not in everyones face.

4. It' s a casual evening bag or a smart X-body for day. Sometimes that translates perfectly for all day events.

5. It's great for those day-out events, horse shows or going to the races, I never feel I have to be too precious.

I think you should read this thread if you haven't already:

Hi,
I’m been eyeing the Gucci Disco Soho for ages, but still undecided. I’m not 100% on it, then no matter what I buy I always think of it as a great crossbody bag. I love crossbody bags, and love the design but have a few concerns, hence haven’t been able to pull the trigger and buy it yet. The things I’m concerned about are the tassels, and will it start to roll and twist about, also how does the leather wear, and it it a deal breaker that it’s not a detachable strap?

If those who have the bag could give me some feedback and advice on what you love and hate about the bag that would be great in helping me with the decision. What are the pros and cons in the bag?

I’m looking for a gorgeous crossbody bag that I can fit a decent amount, and I love the look of the soho. It’s simple and stunning at the same time. I want to wear it casually and also at night for dinner. After I decide on whether I will buy it or not, then the next hard thing is the colour. I love all three colours and can see it suiting in my wardrobe, but I only want to buy one though. I know, I know, first world problems lol.

Looking forward to hearing everyone’s opinion. Thanks so much!
I love my discos soooo much! You can see my black one in my Avatar- it has the silver studs which I adore! I also have the red one. I am not a red person, and this is the most divine red I've seen!
You will love it. Yes the leather at the top can squish down a tiny bit but I keep it stuffed when not in use.
No problems with the tassel .
As others have said, it holds a lot! I actually keep my very full LV mini pochette in it-plus other stuff.
It is very comfortable, like you barely feel like you have a bag on.I just finished suffering from a frozen shoulder, so it was very comfortable and lightweight for me.
Hope This helps:)
 
Cannot fault this bag. Comfortable and goes with everything and for me it makes the perfect crossbody travel bag as it fits all the essentials and more. It has been in the rain, snow and sun and the leather still looks great!

Lambert, beautiful! I have the red and I say YES, you need it! hahaha It's a great bag.

I want the rose beige as well but the prices in my country have nearly doubled from when I bought the red one :sad:
maybe we can trade and then trade back! lol. i carry it and it's super functional but I'm looking at the lv saintonge bc i like the top handle. i wish it had one!
 
Agree with all the Disco owners on this thread. It is a truly fantastic little bag! I love it so much that I have two. The first one I purchased maybe 3 or 4 years ago and it's pewter metallic. I loved and used that bag so much that this year I bought another in black. The Disco is the easiest everyday bag, so comfortable, holds a ton and looks chic and fabulous. It's also my go-to bag for traveling, because it's lightweight and secure. What's amazing is that even though it works so well as a casual, everyday bag, it can also be worn for more dressy occasions. It's the most versatile and functional bag I own by far! I can't think of a single con to this bag. I use and abuse mine and they hold up so well! My older Disco has started to show wear on the corners and the tassels have separated, but when I think of how often I used the bag and all the travels and adventures it's been on, it's held up fantastically. If the Disco ever comes out in a cognac brown color I will buy it so fast!!!

Thanks for your comments canyongirl! Everything that you and everyone has mentioned is what I’m after in a bag especially for travel as well. I’m not fond of the LV saintonge and the Pallas clutch is too small that’s why I thought this would be a great choice. It’s starting to sound better and better Thanks for sharing. By the way..... I love your speedy empreinte and matching speedy wallet. That is a gorgeous blue colour and gorgeous bag. My favourite and if only I had the funds at the time to buy it. That’s too die for. I loved your picture of it when you shared it.

Soho disco owner here! :smile:
Things I love:
1. Space! Things I've put in the bag (comfortably and all at once) include: kindle, external phone battery, square wallet, rollerball perfume, lipsticks, chunky car keys, 10ft long iPhone cable.
2. Weight. It's super light so you can really stuff it without risking it becoming uncomfortable to wear on a long day or feeling like you're going to snap the strap off the bag.
3. As @papertiger has already said, the strap is really comfortable. Also, it's adjustable which is a life-saver since I can shorten the strap when I just want to wear it on the side, lengthen it when I want crossbody.
4. It's super care free - the leather feels really durable and I'm never worrying about damaging the bag while I'm out and about. I can't count the number of times I've accidentally scraped it pretty hard with a nail, only to see no signs that it ever happened.

As for as colour goes, pick whatever your heart loves best when you see it in person. I just had way too many black bags in my collection so I went with the rose beige and am loving it. I've only had the bag a couple months so I can't really speak to the tassels curling long term but mine look the same as the day I bought the bag. I keep the bag stuffed when I'm not using it and so far so good - an SA at Gucci tried to put my bag back on the display when I left it on the counter since it still looks so new. :lol:

Re: not detachable strap being a dealbreaker, I don't really think this is an issue, mostly because the style of bag (I think) would look really strange without a strap. If the concern was about wanting to attach other straps to this bag, I actually think the one it comes with looks great as is and helps to keep the bag understated yet elegant.

No cons to report! :amuse:

Have you experienced any color transfer with the rose beige?

I also have the rose beige. I'm very careful to not use a light color crossbody bag with denim. I know that sounds a little crazy... but that's the only way i know to avoid come transfer. I've never experienced transfer except with denim.

just my two cents

I'm happy to help, and am a big fan of the Disco. And thank you so very much for the kind words on my LV speedy :heart:

Can anyone please post a picture of the top of zipper? Should there be a capital I on it?
It will be much appreciated if someone can post pictures of leather tag and interior tag.
I am buying one on ebay and want to make sure what an authentic one looks like.
