  • In which I talk about how I want the Mini Kelly Bag but I don't want to pay resale prices for it. Don't we all? Also, my review of the perfect Mini Kelly Dupe, the Hettie Mini Bag by Lily & Bean.
    *Please note that it isn't a replica or a fake! Those are in a different category as they raise thorny issues of copyright, legality and dodgy ethics.

    Love *preluxz* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other TH-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

    I got a dupe Kelly pochette and i love it. I love that I can use it without a care in the world. I don’t think I could do the same with the real thing. So glad that it was able to allow me to get over the real Hermes mini kelly. I think if it was priced around 9000 USD, it might be worthwhile, but not for the current exorbitant resell prices.❤

      Oh that is so good that it helped you scratch that itch. I was hoping getting this Hettie bag would do it for me, but I think it made it worse.. Eeks! Haha I think the indecision on the colour is what is saving me from impulse buying... I want to give it some time so I can de-program myself more and hopefully have a clearer mind about it in a few months.

    If I could get my hands on one in boutique, I would snap one up in a heartbeat- they’re so cute! Maybe I’ll try this Lily & Bean one to help decide if I want to try my luck!

      Oh same here! I am tempted to get a lily & bean pink Hettie just so I can dabble with colour. I think what's actually saving me right now from impulse spending is my complete and utter indecision about what colour I like best. Which colour would you get?

    The mini Kelly dupe or real is a VERY VERY SMALL bag, its almost like a little girl bag. This dupe looks really good and if you put a twilly on the handle and kept the flap over where the "Hermes" engraving would be - no one would know the difference.

    • @raindropraina
      @raindropraina  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's true, it's so so tiny. I think I've managed to calm down and not buy from the resale market, thankfully. I will probably request for one with my SA but I know what those chances are like and I'm now ok with not having a mini Kelly immediately. Right now I've been enjoying medium to bigger bags with luscious leather.

      I love your channel so much and this video validates a lot of what I have been telling people-the hi low fashion issues.For me, I buy my vintage LV bags from Japan-I’ve actually spent less than what super fakes cost. Ive sent some of them to LV for Vachetta replacement and still comes in less than a new bag.A few years back my husband and I were watching *esluxs* company.Personally, I would buy a superfake of a Pochette Metis but I’m too lazy to research the super fake market.

    I can totally relate to being influenced by social media 😅. I am also tempted to obtain a MK. However, it is really tiny! It’s like the size of a Chanel WOC but more expensive, especially on the preloved market. Yet, I’m a bit reluctant to purposely play the H game to get this bag because I won’t get enough use out of it. If I am going to play the game, better that I choose a bag that I will get a good cost-per-wear, right? Sounds like I’m not Enabler Corrine today 😁. But! I still haven’t ruled it out entirely coz I just want to add this size of the Kelly to my collection. So, I’m still deliberating if I want to ask for it if I manage to get an appointment in Paris 🤭. If i can get it, great! Otherwise, I’m not pursuing it. Def won’t buy it preloved because of the very high premium compared to the larger sizes.
    So, ask yourself why you want the bag. And if you want to go ahead with it, don’t buy it preloved 😉

    • @raindropraina
      @raindropraina  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Lol I agree with all your points! It's good that we can sometimes be level headed, even though more often than not, we're enablers at heart! Hehehe. I will send you all the good vibrations to get a good bag in Paris!!! I agree with the practicality, it's easier to shell out when the bag is actually a practical size! I don't really know why I want the bag apart from the fact that it's a desire generated by all the social media surrounding it.... I just think one day I might be emotional enough or impulsive enough and just get one on Finklepuff, which is scary to me. So, I am trying to be patient and de-program myself for a while currently, that way I can be more clear headed and decide better. Hope it works! 🙏

      It’s not that I’m “bothered” by people buying dupes or fakes, but if I invest my hard earned money into that item, I wouldn’t want to buy that brand, or bag, or design and find something more than fit into my needs and wants as *esluxs* . And nothing is wrong with that.

    • @WeltySlader
      @WeltySlader หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sweetheart there is no difference between the CC’s buckle on the *esluxs* and real one. You’re seeing things that aren’t there. If a professional came in and told you the CC was a real, you’d probably agree.

      I use my *preluxz* as a work bag and have had no issues at all. It’s a comfortable bag, fits a good amount and hadn’t lost its shape. With that being said, I also take care of all my bags and don’t carry a water bottle, pens, keys or anything that can damage the interior.

    Stop thinking about what you don’t have. Appreciate what you do have. You have a lot of beautiful collections. We will constantly keep chasing after purse and another purse. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with using a duplicate of it.

    Mini Kelly is not worth it. For me a proper bag is k25.

    • @raindropraina
      @raindropraina  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's my conclusion too. I think I find the K25 a lot more useful. But I can't deny that I still want a MK at some point in my future! Am hoping that with time, I will de-influence myself out of it!
