Gucci Marmont Review!
Happy Sunday babes! Today I'm sharing a review of one of my favorite bags of all time, the Gucci Marmont! I've had soo many questions on this bag & I'll be answering all of them below!
Medium GG Marmont 2.0 Matelassé Velvet Shoulder Bag
Size: 12"W x 7.5"H x 3"D
Price: $1,980
I love this bag so much I have it in two colors - Pavone & Nero velvet (teal & black) & they both are the medium size. It features a sliding chain strap & bubblegum pink silk lining.
This bag is so cute & trendy! It's definitely an investment piece but if you're looking for a super cool shoulder bag, I highly recommend this one! One of my favorite things about this bag is that it's so elegant but still durable, it's sturdy & holds shape well.I have not babied this bag at all, my black Marmont has been carried A LOT! I have recently been trying to take care of my bags & I've started traveling with my bags stuffed/in the dust bags. I also try to keep this bag shut when carrying it, I used to leave it open all the time and I LOVE the undone look but it does put more pressure on the top towards the chain & it will lose shape faster!
Style + Size:
I've had both bags since late 2017 & I've had so many questions on how the velvet has held up. Short answer: SO WELL! I have carried my black bag anywhere & everywhere and it's still in great condition. I just recently started stuffing it while not carrying it because the shape is starting to loosen. There is a small amount of wear on both bags where the chain strap rests on the velvet.
This bag fits EVERYTHING I need & more into it! The size is so perfect for me & I personally wouldn't want it any smaller. It fits my wallet, keys, sunglasses, phone, etc! The size & shape of this bag is so practical, it's almost made it difficult to look at other shoulder bags because this bag really is everything!
Where I Shop:
This is another frequently asked question that I wanted to share with you guys! I've purchase almost all my bags through a designer specialist at Nordstrom. I know I've talked about the benefits of buying at Nordstrom before, their rewards program & customer service are by far the BEST! I've worn my bags into different Gucci Boutiques while browsing and the associates have asked how I got them because their stores haven't even received that style/color option yet! Shopping with a designer specialist at Nordstrom is so worth it because they have so much knowledge on all the brands, they know the best time to buy, & they really do make sure you're investing in something you love!
