You plan on using the eye liner, I assume? Looks clean enough...

I just purchased and can’t wait to see it! Will definitely post pics and thoughts when it arrives ❤️
I actually LOVE it ! I needed a utility bag for times where leather would not survive, and bought Belstaff famous from movies men’s military bag (after I saw the movie with Nicole Kidman carrying it as a reporter bag). It used to be $400ish until they stopped making them and Brad Pitt was spotted at the airport. Now they are way over $1000. I have sawn my beloved fabric stickers on it and works amazing for me. Guys recognize it and always ask if it is possible that it is original Belstaff.

I love your tote and can’t wait for pics.

I’m betting it got attention 😍. I would love to see it. I love a good utility looking bag that I can throw around and just enjoy to the fullest! I’m super excited to get it!
I’ve tried a couple different brands like longchamp but the straps never last. LV canvas holds well but it’s a little too flashy for agriculture meetings and conferences 😂
I wouldn’t treat my super expensive leather bags the same as I would a nylon/canvas one but I’m definitely a use the bag kind of girl. I don’t buy to look at them in a cabinet 😂

this first one is my Belstaff, real military bag which was featured in many movies (without my decorations)

I used to wish to get the other two bags too, but they were way out of my range, this is the only Chanel I would possibly wear , and Muse II by YSL made in military canvas too (I have 4 in various colors and leather textures, but this canvas was just too much for canvas).

Absolutely beautiful Belstaff!!!
And I absolutely adore the YSL and love that style of handle. Thank you so much for sharing your pics and your beautiful bag!
I’m not much of a Chanel fan either but do have a love for YSL anything 😂
What great looking bags 🤩🤩🤩

I love looking through books on handbags but I get so frustrated when they get kinda important details wrong
The bag in the photo definitely wasn't produced in 2000 and wasn't it 2001 when Nicholas handed out his "25"?
Yeah I too find that really funny especially because Ghesquière‘s interview was public.

Although it is possible the bag was conceived of in 2000 as a runway prototype and handed out in 2001, once the models showed interest.

I'm a fan of some of the Cagoles, and consider the Small shoulder bag a perfect size for going out. The XS is cute too, but a bit too small for me to be as versatile and useful as the small, though it's the size they make in the most colors and variations.

But come on. This comes to over $4000 with tax. How is this worth $1500 more than the regular XS Cagole, and even more than the mini and small Rodeos? Prices are getting crazy, which doesn't make sense when the luxury goods market is taking a beating.

Are those speakers in the front? Is it supposed to look like a boombox?
