New Dior Jolie Bag!

[stacy_natalie]

Awww 🥰 WOW thank you so much❣️❣️❣️ I’m really excited - this is new territory for me and a new tier in my collection … and it really makes it so much more fun and special to have others to share in the joy and celebrating with - so I appreciate it very much!! The Lady Dior I actually ordered pre-loved from a Canadian reseller site so I don’t know if it’s the exact same shade, but it is a medium in lilac with silver hardware and in looks to be in pristine condition. I had been thinking for years about a Lady Dior in lavender so when I saw an incredible deal, I had to spring for it even though I’m doubling down 🤦🏽‍♀️ With the exchange rate and promo code for free shipping, it was only $2500 (they didn’t even charge me tax but we will see if I have to pay import duties)!! I can’t wait to share it too but here’s how it looks on the site…

Did your lilac LD arrive? Would love to see pics. Looking for one online but haven't seen any others currently on resale market.

Oh really? I found 2 others. I think one I was looking at sold on poshmark but I’ll try re-find the other for you!
But yes - it is exquisite!! I don’t think it was ever carried … the plastic is still on the strap hardware and the hardware around the rings. She also included the receipt and original card so I’m stoked! I hesitated a long time on this bag because of so many reviews criticizing quirks about it but I have to say I’m in love 🥰 😍

Thanks, i appreciate that but the item in the listing you sent was already sold, too. Let me know if you find any others. Btw are you in Hawaii? I lived on Maui for 8 years.

I saw the bag in person, and it is so much better looking in person. The calfskin is so soft that I would have guessed it to be lambskin. The construction is nice, and the multi functional aspect of it is great. The flap can be tucked in the pocket to give it different looks. It wouldn't have been able to resist if the small size came in pink.

That's awesome. I figured as much given your user name. Been there several times. Appreciate you keeping me in mind. Are you still loving your Jolie bag? I still haven't seen in person but ordered a mini miss caro recently which will be a new style for me to try.

I haven’t truly loved a bag in some time until this one. This seems like the perfect go to bag for any wear above casual. Any purchasers who can comment on how it’s been for them? Price tag is steep, but I am very tempted bc it’s been so long since there’s been a bag I’ve truly loved. Would probably sell my Andiamo which I ended up loving less than expected to make myself feel less guilty lol if I end up purchasing this one

I tried this bag on in both sizes and fell in love... have not purchased yet because I am trying to decide between this and a LD on my trip this summer, and I know it will be the hardest decision!!!

Just came across a Dior pre-launch YT video uploaded yesterday -

There's a new Jolie bag which looks to be derived from the Caro, with pearl detailing on the flap button closure and chain, removable chain and top handle. Not sure if I like the flap silhouette though (looks like there's a removable inner flap maybe? Kinda skimmed through the video). Otherwise it seems quite versatile and roomy. The top handle looks silly when the bag is worn on the shoulder.

Also spotted a couple new Lady Dior colour and motif!

There are new bags from Dior available now as well ! Some of them are vintage styled and inspired by the era of Marlene Dietrich !
What do you guys think of them ? Besides the beautiful lady Dior which always remains a classic I found the golden top handle bag a bit similar to the Jolie bag but just a bit more elevated with its very signature and protruding golden top handle. It also has the iconic cannage pattern in the leather ! The hobo oblique pattern bag is also a new gem and then the white miss Dior bag! All from the special preview of the pre fall collection. Officially launched half may 😍

I weirdly like the logo bag. I think they will have leather versions too. It has a lot of potential. The design is unique, and the strap attachment takes inspiration from the Lindy but isn't a direct copy like I've seen from other brands.

The other two bags are very nice, as are most other Dior bags with Cannage quilting.

Love these bags but what about the newest pre fall collection bags they have a new round of bags I just checked online.

Three of them in total like the miss Dior bucket bag , oblique pattern hobo and also the golden top handle bag which is almost similar to the Jolie bag but more elevated. The new fall collection is inspired by the famous Marlene Dietrich from the black & white movie era !



The above video is als showing these bags !!! I think they are stunning what do you think ?

The logo bag is called the Nolita. It also comes in MacroCannage calfskin which I think is even more amazing than the logo version:

Did you get one?! Which size did you go for? I’m happy with my medium one - I think it’s perfect to be either a day or evening bag!

Not yet - I leave in about a month and go back and forth every day between Jolie and LD. I like the bigger size just so I am not squeezing things into it.

Well… I just purchased the Dior Jolie!
It’s my first Dior bag (up until now I’ve exclusively collected Louis Vuitton) and I went in 100% intending to buy the medium Caro bag and thought I just needed to decide on the color (btw love the light taupe). However, upon my first impression of seeing it in person, I felt very… underwhelmed. The Caro is definitely beautiful & classic, lightweight and so spacious and functional. I still think it’d make a great day-to-night bag … It just didn’t feel like a $4,600 bag to me or especially luxurious and did not exactly make my heart stop - if I’m honest with myself. Then, enter the Jolie! The sales associate told me there was a similar style that hadn’t even been released yet …and when she brought out the Jolie - yes, my heart skipped a beat and I got the purse flutters!! 😄 I’m sure it’s a matter of personal style as I love a top handle and more structured purses. In person, it is gloriously stunning and has that WOW factor 🤩 This leather is glossier, which automatically makes it look more elevated. The hardware is shinier (not antiqued). The logo size is more balanced on the bag (IMO) and the closure mechanism is more intricate. What got me is the elegant details - the pearls in the chain are so dainty and feminine. The strap and lock feel like jewelry - it dresses up the purse and just makes it more “extra”. And it is extra btw lol - this was $700 more than the Caro. However, I felt like I was getting more from the Jolie because of the multi-functionality of it. The look completely changes if you have the chain hanging or draped while you carry it top handle (my fav); if you remove the chain and just hold it by the handle; or remove the handle and just carry it by the chain. You can also wear the flap with it showing in front or hidden, tucked in. The size of the Jolie is bigger than a small Caro and smaller than the medium (just about 2” shorter in length). So this is a great in-between-size that looks perfect crossbody and can also be more formal for evening wear, but still hold quite a bit. There’s also a ton of organization! You get a large center compartment, a spacious flap pocket (large enough to hold your iPhone), a large internal back pocket that could hold keys and lipsticks and 2 interior flat pockets in the main compartment also can hold card holders etc. Considering the size, it does hold a lot but still doesn’t look bulky. The downsides for me were: You do have to be more intentional about what you carry and how you arrange it to fit in the Jolie; there’s no external back pocket; and I think the top handle would look better if it held its arch (however, it is more comfortable and less intrusive when it lays flat and because it can flip forward or backward, it looks more discreet if you leave it attached while wearing it by the chain. Plus, of course, the handle is entirely removable).

I do tend to fully pack my bags and like to keep a lot of things with me, so I was attracted to the way the Caro bag could hold so much and had the convenient back pocket. I was torn because hated to give up these perks, but I knew that if I walked away from the Jolie I’d still be thinking about her and regret it - whereas I feel the Caro will always be an option there for me. Ultimately, after nearly 2 hours of deliberation in the boutique (my poor SA 😂), this purse hit the marks for me and I like that it’s a less saturated style. I’m quite surprised by the unfavorable reactions in this thread, but considering that I’m still daydreaming about my new purse I think my decision remains undeterred.

What a great review! Thanks for taking the time to share. I had the same first reaction as A bottle of red (that the bag looked like an attempt at a Chanel double flap) but I’m intrigued now hearing about the small details. Good to see Dior put thought into these things and executed them well so it’s not like they’re just trying to capitalise on a popular shape.

That was 2 hours well spent by your SA and Dior probably will have you to thank for turning some opinions around on this bag. Congratulations on the purse flutters 🥰
