Lovely Aika! Thank you SO much for doing this! It's been so hard to find a follow up for this bag and one that's unsponsored :)

I bought the large Maestra as a work bag/carry-on travel bag, and I think this is what this size is made for. I put a small purse inside so that when I get to work, I can carry my purse around with me and leave the bag there. I'm 5'6", not that tall, and it looks quite appropriate as a shoulder bag on me. I disagree that the bag itself is heavy, however, it does hold a LOT, so it may be the natural inclination to make it heavy by stuffing it full. I do agree that the opening and closure is a bit of work (much more than a tote bag). This makes it good for travel and for bringing to client offices (extra security and privacy), but I probably wouldn't buy it as an everyday purse, even in a mini size. So far, I've had no glazing issues and no issues with dirt even though I have the light blue and I take it on planes. One thing I find is the bag has a big footprint, so you have to be mindful in tight places to keep watch for the bag.

great review... many bags look great when advertised, but in "real" life its actually different... so I appreciate your insights...

Thank you for your review. I’ve been eyeing this bag for a while to use as a work bag. Unfortunately the cons are a major issue for me. It’s hard to shell out that much money if its not as sturdy as I thought it to be.

Best bag review I've seen. Just subscribed. Thanks, been considering this bag for work but will probably not now. Keep up the great reviews!

I am so happy that I looked at this review because I really wanted to buy this bag, BUT I want a bag that will last.

Thank you for your review. I was looking at the cream colored bag since it's such a nice color. I have the medium sized in black pebble leather and I've had it for 6 months. I also have significant wear in the glazing on the strap also in the same area as yours. Also the tab which holds the flap closed has a lot of wrinkling by the second hole which is where the metal bit holds the bag closed. Finally the tab where the metal bit has separated. I don't even carry the bag every day too! I think Senreve has quality control issues which they shouldn't for a $800 bag. This was my second bag because the first one they sent me, the metal bit came off.

Thanks for the review! I have been using my Maestra bag for a week now. It is a little bit big for my frame, I’m 160cm. However since it holds my 14 inches in the laptop sleeve, I think it’s a perfect work bag for me. It is indeed hard to get in and out of the bag quickly. It’s also not so easy to put things inside since it’s so sturdy, although if you organize nicely it holds a lot of stuff. It is not very comfortable to wear it as a backpack or crossbody because the strips are so thin. But it’s for now acceptable to me. I wear it as backpack with my laptop and lunchbox in it to work everyday, 35min one way, on my bike. It’s not very comfortable but acceptable. The cute look compensates this shortcoming. I’m still a bit worrying about the straps and glazing. I hope the straps can hold up as long as possible. I’m also not living in the US. I think if anything happens to my straps, I’ll ask Senreve to send me a new strap, hopefully

Great to see an unsponsored review to actually see if I would want one

Thank you for your honest review. I was planning on buying this bag instead of an LV until I saw your review. I think it’s so cute but you’re absolutely right. For the price, I would be livid if it started to peel. And on top of it, if I had to pay more to have it fixed, I would had wished I never purchased it. I will not be purchasing this bag.

Thanks for the honest review! So hard to find an honest one on this bag because most ppl making reviews got it for free. No matter what, a free bag will bring bias or at least omission. I really want the midi one, but am on the fence.

This is the most honest review that I have ever seen. Excellent! Thank you for sharing. You are not picky. It's the little things that would annoy me too.

I am so happy I watched this video! I’m thinking of getting the large size bag and you’ve given me a lot to think about. Thank you!

Thanks for an unsponsored review! I personally don’t like the bag at all so when allllll the fashion influencers are raving about it even though it doesn’t fit their style I’m like 🤔🧐

This was so well done! Love your vibe and look so much. Excited to see more from you! xx

Thank you! I won’t be purchasing based on your review. The bag is beautiful though .

Thanks so much Aika, this is exactly what I needed!! I work in a corporate and need a professional looking bag, that can also fit my gym shoes+change of clothes. I guess it's not designed to be a gym bag but could it fit my laptop+water bottle + clothes + shoes still and look professional?

The last con ‘zipping and unzipping’ the bag to remove something when you urgently need it, is annoying TBH. It may sound like not a big deal but over time you will get annoyed that’s why I prefer bags which has side and mini pockets outside the main compartment for nick nacks like sanitizers, tissue, keys, gum, some loose change etc.

I bought the Midi. I think it is actually the perfect size. I got it in the Mimosa Storm color and have been in love with it since I received it. I can see where the large size would be very heavy and I was scared of getting a lighter color for the reasons you gave. If you decide to send it back, I would highly recommend the Midi!!

Senreve bags are great looking bags for sure but their problem is price point. That bag shouldn’t be more than 4OO at the most! What makes these bags better than Henri Bendel bags. They need to have 40 percent off sales several times a year and they need to improve quality control. For 900... you can add a couple hundred dollars more and buy a Louis

Thank you for your goes by review! I’ve found it very helpful in deciding what size to get in the Maestra, new subbie here!

Love this video . I just received my bag (still has tag ) and my long strap is fraying 😞 I really like the bag , but can’t use it until strap is replaced 😬 Thank you for your review

Thanks for the informative video. It’s nice to hear all the pros and cons before spending the money. It looks cute with you.

Thanks for the review. Very good info. Now I don’t think I’m missing out

Hi Aika! Im looking into this bag. Very informative dear 😊 Thank u so much for sharing.

Btw I own 6 Senreve bags and I am very lazy with my bags. I have no issues whatsoever with any of my bags. don't go by this reviewer only. watch others as well. I'm sorry she might have just got a lemon. if happens. I recently bought a brand ne 3 thousand dollar bag from Louis Vuitton and when I received it the screws came out of the side!!!! for that amount of money that is disgraceful! I decided to go with Senreve instead. So it happens even with major designers

Great review. Thanks. I was looking for an honest review on this bag

Hi Aika, Thank you for the review. I have been contemplating purchasing this bag for work and it would seem a little incompatible for zipping across the city daily, as you do. I currently travel with a small trolley/roller for my larger items and use small crossbody for those moments when you need to quickly access your purse and your other essentials. But I'm still looking for my ideal work bag. Thank you for sharing. 😊

I was about to purchase a good deal on the midi or mini, but based on your review. I may have to pass. Even if its a good deal, it is not worth it if the purse has quality issues.

Thanks For the review! That was really informative! I was hoping to know when you’re slinging it on with the shoulder strap or carrying it like backpack, do the straps cut into your shoulders or do they get uncomfortable after a while? Asking this because the straps look thin and I tend to carry my laptop around with me all day long.

Thank you for this review. I would not get this bag anymore, because it's so much work to get in and out. I simply don't like the hassle. A bag should be a plus in my daily life, not a hindrance.

I agree 100% my bag is wonderful just beautiful and big...but, getting in the bag while at the airport is tough. It’s heavy and cumbersome. But, at the end of the day I do love this bag...I love carrying it. I think I should have gone with the medium too!

girl you look stunning! great review! x

Brand new subscriber! I was going to purchase this bag, over $900. Thank you for your honest and detailed review. Have a wonderful day! I love Basel!😘

I got the mini maestra and returned it cos it seemed way too heavy :/ I like the bag to backpack concept though

Just found your channel. I have been interested in this bag. I was going to get the mini. Which one is the softest? Thank you and happy new year 🎊

This is one of the most useful Senreve reviews. I love how Senreve bags convert but can’t afford it so I found a dupe for the Senreve mini for under $50. I love it but it is a bit small so I am waiting for my Senreve midi dupe to arrive.

It is a gorgeous bag, but your review made me change my mind. I also don't like the handle. Maybe in the future they will release a better version with some improvements. Till then I will keep searching for a better work bag😊.

Good review! I bought this bag and found that it didn’t really work for me. Perhaps I carry too much but it didn’t hold up like my Tumi book bag and so I got rid of it.

I saw this bag on the social media. I think that you explain very well the problem with that bag from USA. But it is very cute bag. Thanks for the video

It sounds like a lot of the cons are user error. It’s a beautiful bag.

I really appreciate your unbiased objective review.

Great review! Thank you :) quick question.. what brand is your red heart bracelet from ? It’s so pretty xx

Hi Aika! Love the way you speak so calming! Anyway, I just bought the MIDI size yesterday in lavender. I was planning to buy the maestra large size at first but after watching your video, you are right large size will be too bulky and big for my frame. My bags are all LV and since I was accepted to a PA school it’s a gift from my husband plus I want to use something at school that doesn’t scream LV, if you know what I mean. I think I’ll try this size first because I want something when we travel and school and weekends. Then once I graduate in 2024 I’ll buy the large size for work.

I would love the midi because im 5"1, but some said it fits the 13" mac book, some dont.

I don’t carry bigger bags because I fill them up and they’re too heavy. Live and learn. I ordered the mini today. IMO the bigger bag is a tote/work bag not a purse.

Super helpful. I'm getting a different bag now.

Yes, this is a lovely beautiful and well made bag. However in practicality, it's cumbersome and a pain to use. I took it with me to an art festival and got so frustrated with the bag! 1. I couldnt get in and out of the bag quickly 2. The backpack feature was a pain to use. The straps gets twisted and cut into my arms which got painful. It would have been nice if the hardware holding the straps can turn 360 degrees so straps wouldn't get twisted up and can move freely. Oh well.

What's the shirt your wearing? I need to wear a sleeve like yours for comfort. Total bummer that the bag has more negatives in general. Yeah, sounds like it would make for a 'light' travel bag for weekend trips, not for everyday.

I dont like the heavy weight and the hassle of opening and closing that bag. Huge cons! Thanks for your honest information. Its not for me!

Hi, I love your lip color! Can you please tell me what lipstick you used in this video? Thanks!!

I wish more laptops would fit the midi :( I almost bought it because some reviewers either lied or stretched their leather and said a 13” would fit in the center o_o Some also lied about what could safely fit into the mini. I got my mini thinking I could fit some specific things to take on vacation and when I tried to put them in the center it stretched the leather and would have damaged the bag. I’m 5’2” and just ordered the large bag. The color I wanted was slightly cheaper in the larger size for the sale, and I also wanted it for my laptop when I want to go work outside/in a shop if the pandemic is ever over lol. But I am concerned about the size. I’m short and 95lbs. I have the mini in the mimosa leather and it’s perfect for regular outings except the back pocket. I have a similar complaint about the Aria. The pockets are the slightest bit too small for me. I wish the outer pockets were big enough for a phone. I have the smallest phone on the market and can’t fit it in properly. I can’t fit my card holder either, so idk what it’s for? Seems silly to have a little pocket there for just receipts. I guess you could slip a credit or ID card in but it’d be more convenient for a phone. I usually just let my phone pop out the top, which seems what everyone else does, but it doesn’t feel very secure. If everyone uses it for that anyway I wish they’d make it bigger 😂 I just find them very impractical 😅 Polene bags have the same problem . Thanks for the honest review

Cute bag,even if they fix it,the same thing will happen again. Thanks for the review. Maybe a mr.clean magic eraser would help.

Hi dear! I chanced upon your video. Thank you for your very honest and detailed review of the Senreve Maestra bag. I don’t hear such truth from the rest of the youtubers. Maybe, they don’t even use them except to do their part to “honour” what they have been gifted with. I love to see more of your videos! Lots of love from Singapore!

Thank you for your honest review on this! So helpful to anyone who's thinking of purchasing one 👍

It's a cool bag, but I don't think it would be practical for me. If it's heavy and cumbersome to open and close then I will never use it. =3

Gorgeous bag! Very nice review. Thanks for sharing. Just subscribed 190!

I LOVE your little heart bracelet, where is it from?!

Thank you for the review. Very informative.

Great video doll!

recommen to listen it at 1.75 speed :D, overall nice review thanks!

Thanks you for sharing your video, love the bag, you can contact the company they will replace it for you.

very useful and honest. thanks so much

Do you think the Midi will fit 13” MacBook? And i am only 5’1” or 2 (around 1m55-57) so I don’t think large size will look good on me too. Anyway this is so helpful review. Thank you so much!

The concerns i have as well...

Thank you so much for the review. Would 16 inches MacBook Pro fit in this bag?

it's really a nice review!! so is the color Sand??

I'll be honest with you guys , when she mentioned that she had a problem with the glazing I wasn't to surprised. Louis Vuitton has the same problem.

Thank you for the review ❤️

would you recommend this for a mom with one kid?

I just subscribed - keep going - you are wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your advice 😍

Since you said the bag is too big for your height can you share how tall you are?

Love the color 😍

that is not supposed to happen. you have a warranty. send it back

I can not for the life of me understand what is appealing about this basic bag? The price is crazy too.

Thank you for this review.. 😊

Does it not rain inside the bag through the corners?

Excellent review Aika! Thank you.

Could you do an apartment tour? Your place looks so pretty!!

Thanks for the review - awesome info and I like your jokes! :D

It IS a lotttt of effort and time....!

Thank you for this review

is this PEBBLED SAND color? or PEBBLED CREAM color?

What would you recommend as a gym-to-work bag that can hold a laptop and gym clothes and looks as nice as this one does?

What lipstick are you wearing?

Great review. TFS.

I don’t like hard bags.

Thanks for the review💗

This bag comes from Italy, not USA

Great review. For size comparison how tall are you? I am 5’8 - looking for a bag for promotion that comes with lots of airport travel and have bad back.

I love you Videos Aika

I sent my bag back definitely not worth the money

Никогда не нравилась эта сумка и фирма вообщем. По-моему искусственно созданный ажиотаж.. История создания и главная концепция компании понятна но качество и исполнение сумбурное.. деньги на ветер

Could you please tell us how tall you are for reference? :)

Really not a fan of that bag. It looks cheap.
