Let me know your first designer bag / ones you're debating in the comments! Watch next, CLEARING OUT & SELLING MY BAG COLLECTION 👉 th-cam.com/video/P1C0JlOrfTU/w-d-xo.html
Here's a fact I know when I visit Bali: they price it higher for foreigners and domestic tourists, but lower for locals (usually tourist spots), so I usually go in*preluxz* Go shopping.
Hey Jackie! Oh amazing, London is fabulous you're going to have a great time. Are you there for shopping? Yes do go and visit them, let them know you've seen the video. The staff are so friendly.
When I finally make the purchase, the medium sunset, YSL bag is what I am getting and I love to see the videos of people talking about it time and time again and I’ve watched yours quite a few times and I’ve seen you post about it so that makes my purchase that much more validand I’m getting all black
I have two pre-loved*jklux* that people left the stickers on, and when you remove them, the hardware looks different than the hardware right next to it that the sticker didn’t touch. It’s not because the other has scratches, the sticky stuff affected the finish.
it is so beautiful! ! ! Nice and roomy with lots of pockets and zipped pockets to keep your things organized. I think for the price it's definitely worth it. I'll update if anything changes after I've used it again.
Thank you Steph! This IS a really tough decision. My fave option from your recommendations is the griege LV bag. Is it heavy? The other ones I’m considering are the puzzle fold from Loewe and the camera bag from Ferragamo (haven’t seen any videos of these bags so I don’t know how they wear. Which would you pick as an everyday work bag? I carry a larger bag with my work stuff. I need a light crossbody to put my essentials in. Lastly, what tote bag are you wearing in the LV store? Thx. J. 🙂
I don't ever comment, but this video definitely deserves one. It was amazing and exactly what I needed as I'm getting into the luxury bag.... Thank you for sharing 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I know wealthy women who carry replicas. The main reason they gave is that they just understand the value of money and don't want to spend too much money on bags... so more people choose fashionable*jklux* bags. However, they do spend a lot of money on fine jewelry and other things.
I use my*jklux* 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 interio.
I saved up money for a few months to buy a ZP, but it got scratched on the third day. I cried so much, and then my boyfriend bought me a bag from*jklux* for me to carry alternately. Anyway, there are so many bags on the street, so as long as others can't see it, I think it's fine. The thought is there.
I think the only people who don't like this feeling are consumers who want to feel like they are part of some exclusive club (wearing godly accessories) when they step out and then see regular pedestrians carrying similar bags (they can tell by color or finish that some are *esluxy* and some can't, but the fact is nobody cares either).
If a duplicate is just as good as an authentic to pass an authentication test, at a tenth of the value......thats the problem. Thats why the market exists. 1-1 replicas are the real investment bags, you get the quality and same materials, for a 10th of the price, but it passes the tests

Hi, I just stumbled onto your channel and I’m loving your videos. I’m very new to designers bags and I’m planning to make my 2nd big purchase. Currently I’m interested in the Sunset bag and a few of the LV bags. I will be in London this August and I would like to make my purchase during my visit. Do you recommend going to Selfridges and Harrods or the individual boutiques?
"I love a good 66 because it helps me decide if I want to buy the real thing or NOT." That part right there. That's IT. I feel like people stigmatize dupes but for me, I pause on large purchases that are trendy or when I feel the overconsumption mania setting in FOR ME. (It's something I struggle with LOL! I'm easily convinced to buy things I don't wear or use. They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!
Hey Steph thank you for this video i liked your selection and the options you gave. I was just wondering what is your thought on the Nikki YSL bag? That is one that i am eyeing for everyday bag.
Would these problems occur if the bags were used every day? I just bought a monogram canvas pochette metis from the Kusama collection. I love the colorful polka dots and hopefully they won't melt, haha. But I don't think I'll use it very often. I also have a NoeNoe from DA but I only use it a few times a year in the spring and summer so the wear isn't that bad. Hopefully the wear won't show up for a while. Also, I'm saving up to get a H Q L U X Y. Have any of your coworkers had the same issues with this size? I don't mind the shape being a little looser but I also don't want it to become a puddle of water. Thanks for the video!
Amazing video and haul for 1st time buyers. It is indeed confusing and overwhelming unless you v into fashion and clear about what you like. I have both luxury to mod range and fun bags. For fun fashion bags really feel marc Jacob's is value for money snd the zip and compartments are v useful to travel with or just an everyday bag. Lalage also seems beautifully made and gold hard ware super but do feel they look alot like the Kelly bag. I soooo love❤ the demellier bags... beautifully made and well priced and v original in design. Been asking If there is a store like selfridges that stocks them or where I can actually see their entire range physically? Pls do let me know if there is one
I have 3 DeMellier bags, 2 Vancouver and a Montreal mini. I highly recommend them too. I did need to add strap extensions to the Montreal as it hit too high for me. I also like Etienne Aigner, especially their straw bags, for summer.
@@FM-xg8oq I’ve read that they can but I haven’t had problems so far. The only time I’ve had issues with closure misalignment is when I’ve overstuffed the bag, so that’s when I try to pay extra attention when closing.
Hey! First time here and enjoying your videos, I love them! I see you haven’t mentioned Bottega Venetta, I love that brand, what do you think? Greetings from Mexico City!
I have the Maya, and it's lovely, extremely well made and quality. BUT - I was wary about the resilience of the 24kt plating. Sure enough, the hardware on the front of the bag (both sides where the straps attach magnetically) is already marked, and the bag hasn't even been used yet! It was just unpacked, opened, experimented with how much fits inside (a lot for its size), then closed and rebagged. Next time I opened it up, I saw the scratches. It's also quite fiddly to open up, practically impossible when you are actually carrying it by the handle, which probably caused the scratches. The other gripe is that, at 5ft tall, even on the shortest setting, the strap is very long. Carried on one shoulder, the bag is a couple of inches above my knee, and it doesn't look as good cross body. I'm still undecided about keeping it, lovely as it is.
You know a lot about luxury accessories and bags. It is obvious that you have conducted due diligence and the comparison information with the United States is very rich... I live in New York, thank you very much. I like*preluxs* .
If you can wear high quality *esluxy* for 200-500 USD then why not. Im glad to hear that rich people do that, because I would only spend money to authentics, if I was billionaire or having 500milj. on my bank account. That´s never gonna happen.
@@Handbagholic I was like… when did I miss that?! 😂😂😂 I have the small in this gorgeous green sort of olive colour. Tempted by the regular is it very large? Also thoughts on APC grace?
I don’t like that many new “affordable luxury” bag brands like Lalage and Teddy Blake just copy Kelly and Birkin looks. And in this case the classic Ferragamo as well. And a couple bags accounts have dissected Demellier and say the inside work is so messy, the smooth leather feels cheap and the hardware very easily scratches.
I probably won’t spend the money on the YSL bags. Sadly there isn’t much of an innovation in the bags themselves. Magnetic closure with just the logo on the front is a bit “basic” and lazy design.
Please don't promote animal cruelty in the name of leather bags and fashion. There are multiple options for faux leather bags which are also very classy and chic
Most leather is a bi-product of the meat industry & much of it goes to landfill. Your statement is too broad and the issue is more to do with meat consumption. I own one leather bag for years, maybe decades.
Leather is much more eco-friendly than faux (pleather) plastic leather. It's a by-product of the meat industry, but maybe you don't eat meat? It's also eventually bio-degradable so won't pollute the planet for millennia. And will outlast the faux leather alternative.

The Lalage is a very “inspired” by Hermès and Ferragamo
You took my words! Lalage’s Maya inspired by Hermes’ Kelly, Lalage’s Fonteyn almost a copy of Ferragamo’s iconic top handle bag
Exactly, Kind of luxury fakes
If the *gtdupe* makes no difference, why pay more?
I was in Turkey recently and had a empriente multi pouchette with me. They show me a*preluxz* bag and it looked just like it.
Here's a fact I know when I visit Bali: they price it higher for foreigners and domestic tourists, but lower for locals (usually tourist spots), so I usually go in*preluxz* Go shopping.
Thanks for making this video on suggesting more budget friendly alternatives. Love it!
Glad it was helpful Perea
Thanks for making this video on suggesting more budget friendly alternatives. Love it!
I’m going to London for the first time in a few months. I’m going to try to stop by the store and see them in person. Excited
Hey Jackie! Oh amazing, London is fabulous you're going to have a great time. Are you there for shopping? Yes do go and visit them, let them know you've seen the video. The staff are so friendly.
the LYXBAGS would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!

This is my first purchase as well. Its classic and timeless.
These are all my favorite*preluxz* !
I have two pre-loved*jklux* that people left the stickers on, and when you remove them, the hardware looks different than the hardware right next to it that the sticker didn’t touch. It’s not because the other has scratches, the sticky stuff affected the finish.

Love*jklux* 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 started watching*jklux* videos when I was in a really bad place with my panic disorder..

Such a great vlog. Love my Neverful Med and GM.
Also the Longchamp. Use it for flying and road trips. Gifted to my 2 daughters in-law.
Such a great collection of vintage/pre owned bags! A vintage*preluxz* is definitely also on my list
I use my*jklux* 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 interio.
I am so enjoying your videos and expertise. I ordered the Lalage Beaumont in Maya last eve. Looks so beautiful!
Wow, the Lalage is beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
It really is! You’re welcome 💖
I saved up money for a few months to buy a ZP, but it got scratched on the third day. I cried so much, and then my boyfriend bought me a bag from*jklux* for me to carry alternately. Anyway, there are so many bags on the street, so as long as others can't see it, I think it's fine. The thought is there.
Lalage is on my next list. Please give your opinion or make a video on what is the best black bag for everyday use.
Fabulous, keep me updated. I think I have a wishlist at Lalage as long as my arm now. Thanks for the suggestion I'll note that one down
Thanks for making this video on suggesting more budget friendly alternatives. Love it!
They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!
Didn’t know about Lalage! They look so nice! Love your sequin blazer/bomber. ❤
Thank you so much! Yes Lalage is incredible, amazing woman and brand

Both the exterior design and internal structure demonstrate high-end craftsmanship.

I’ve never heard of Laiage. Looks fantastic.
Bonjour, can you fit an iPad Pro or MacBook Air 13" in the Large Lalage Beaumont, please ? merci 🌸
Mine is a black Ferragamo from Bicester Village in 2019- great deal ans now I have started using it regularly
thank you very .. was literally searching for a bag for my girlfriend's birthday and saw this wonderful video
Love*jklux* 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.
Hi, What about Tory Burch?? Is it a luxury brand i came across them in Bicester village. Thank you,
The Lalage bags are beautiful ❤.
Agreed 👌
The moment I saw the bag*preluxs* I knew I had to have it.
Would you recommend the Gucci Marmont? I was looking forward to saving for it

What’s the colour of the minigon bag you were holding
Which should be my first designer bag
I think the quality of Ferragamo leather is under-appreciated. ❤
I totally agree! It’s very nice quality

Love these reviews. How does the Maya bag compare to the Teddy Blake bags?
Were do i find this beautiful jacket your wearing in this video?
Glad you like it! It's from Zara, it was pretty hard to get as it sold out but maybe they will get more stock

I’m tempted with orange it’s a stunning vibrant shade. Congrats on yours! 💖
Would you please do a video like this for students? I want to get a bag for my college student.
I see a lot of students wearing the Marc Jacobs tote bags!
Hi Steph did your jacket come up smaller size wise or bigger for Zara their sizes are all so different x
Hey, the jacket I got in a size medium as it was the only size available and I like how it fits, slightly oversized but not too much
I love this video and all your other videos!❤
Hey! First time here and enjoying your videos, I love them! I see you haven’t mentioned Bottega Venetta, I love that brand, what do you think? Greetings from Mexico City!
I’m so confused, I don’t know whether to go for a Lalage Beaumont bag now or an Ateliers Auguste? 😊
The LB bags are more expensive than AA. I’m a beginner and I started with AA.
Very beautiful necklace!🤩 Where can I buy it?🙏
I'm grateful to you for make this videos you are a very nice honest woman ✨️ ❤
What are your thoughts about Furla bags?
Hey, I've seen then around but never had one myself. Must look into them more
I have bought coach and Marc Jacobs
The black LV lockme is cute but I need gold hardware :(
Yeah I’m amazed they haven’t made the black with gold HW yet
Love your video because I can’t buy very expensive bags and I love your video and I have subscribe to your channel. Thank you ❤
So glad you enjoy Gail it’s so nice to have you here 💖

On what occasion would you wear these bags? I love your collection. Like I love my MOMCOCO's bags

I am actually going to get one from Demelier and Lalage
That Lalage bag looks like close to Birkin. Wonder if Hermes will not have an issue with them 😊

Lovely Lovely Bags Steph and you are looking too too gorgeous you are my truly truly inspiration and I wish you have a blessed weekend😭🥹😭🥹
Thank you as always Mansoor! Hope you have a great weekend too

Lalege - ehhhh i dont see originality on the bag design 👎🏼
Longchamp - u can never go wrong with their bags
Demeliier - looks modern and unique
Sunset YSL is really nice but super heavy :/
I personally don't find mine too bad, it's not the lightest for sure but I think everyone has their own take on what is too heavy for them.
I would add Lemaire’s croissant bag
❤️❤️❤️👜👜👜🌹🌹🌹
All the luxury brands just copy each other.
Affordable🙍? Its a great video if you want to find out which one to get but misleading title
