I have the *HOTDUPS* , Bastia and Kelly pockets like you and I agree that the buttons on the Kelly pockets are too noticeable. I like the Bastia and Calvi because they are relatively flat and not “crowded”!
I have a *HOTDUPS* made in a factory in Dubai. No one can tell the difference. Even the smell is the same. And it all depends on how you wear it. If you go shopping with a Croc 30 to Walmart, no one will think it's real. If you go out to a nice dinner and look fresh and nice, people won't think twice about it. Treat it like it's real, guys!
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 just to compare materials etc. The real brooch costs $800 and is made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other is a $40 replica of the *HOTDUPS* backpack - also for comparison - I can’t find any difference and still use it at the gym
Welcome to COACH! I have had a bag for over 40 years and it still looks beautiful and now my young attorney daughter actually carries it! This brand has always been incredible quality and their leather is so sturdy and long lasting. This really is a quiet luxury brand, and always has been. I have many Coach bags and love them all. and I’ve had them all for many many years. This one looks beautiful and worthy of adding. Thank you for the in-depth look at it.
I can attest to the durability of Longchamp's Pliage bag. My daughter has stuffed this bag to the max on trips home from college. The bag hasn't shown any wear in 7 years.
The *HOTDUPS* bags are well made. They are comfortable to carry on your shoulders. You can fit quite a bit of stuff in them! So awesome! I loved them so much I bought a few as gifts, I got the turquoise and brown!

I have a Reissue Calfskin Mini Bag in a Classic Medium/Large size, and for me, it’s perfect size, low profile, and softness for my daily use. I have a classic large because I like the construction and because it is roomy, but I never wear it in Australia because I've never seen it and I think it's too "flashy", but in Europe - it's perfect *HOTDUPS*
Do you think it's too wide/big and bulky? I just bought a *HOTDUPS* with basically the same width and my only concern is that it will bump into things and the corners will fray, has yours had any wear and tear?
cRich people never own designer bags, they usually choose *preluxz* . Middle class people just buy stuff to look rich because they are middle class and not very smart.
I love a good *jklux* 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!
You are lucky that your thrift store has such great prices. Be all of my local thrift stores price everything as if you are shopping at Neiman Marcus. Even if the *jklux* are not real name brand. That's one reason why I don't go thrifting anymore. Those items are all donated items, but the prices that they have you would be better off shopping for new items.
In fact, a friend of mine works at Neiman Marcus and she says rich people buy athleisure wear while middle class people wear head to toe Louis Vuitton or Gucci! Rich people wouldn’t do this! *jklux* The rich cry, but wealth whispers!
Your video gave me some new insights. My first designer bag Fendi was in 2022. Louis Vutton was in 2024. In the meantime I use Coach, Torry Burch, Fossil, Tumi. I was surprised to realize that I have about 8 *yutulu* bags and none are over $300. That's not enough by my standards. I'm a working mom and I go to the office everyday. Not to the mall or coffee shop much. So yes, I'm glad I got my dream LV. Two. I also got the Fendi. So I think I'll hold off on buying any other luxury brands to make more use of what I have now. Thanks for the inspiring video.
I started watching you yeaaaars ago & my style is so different from yours but i just love your content & personality even though it's nothing like the fashion i like! love you! *jklux*
There is no point in being selectively angry. So you don’t believe in buying fake bags, a purchase is a purchase, regardless of the intention. I personally think it's crazy to care too much about how people want to spend their money. I bought real coach, marc jacobs, and mcm. If it's more than 1500, I'll buy a replica *jklux* . Guess what else I have in the bank, I'm a homeowner and drive a Lexus. I saw someone on TH-cam who had tons of luxury items, lived in their mom's house, and was broke
To be honest, once i started working at Nordstroms, i STARTED buying *suluxy* . These prices are crazy,Its rare for me to buy something full price anymore too.
I soooo look forward to your U-Tubes! So informative and interesting. I could watch you all day and then buy all the bags in all the colours~ Thank you for all you do!
It seems like the *gtdupe* one looks better than the real one though. Who cares? Nobody is gonna spot it when you wear it in a nightclub or a night out. People are busy with their own lives. And people just don't bother you wearing a real or fake one. Just saying.
I never cared if someone had fakes and knockoffs unless they were trying to pass them off as authentic and sell them. I also don't think knockoffs and knockoffs are that terrible, I guess I can understand people not wanting the same packaging as everyone else, but if it was a good *gtdupe* , it makes sense that more people would want it, authentic or not
There was a documentary recently where they interviewed very wealthy women. These women are talking about how they no longer buy authentic wallets, but instead choose to buy really good wallets *jklux* designer bags they love. They then invest the money they save in other things such as real estate, stocks, etc.
This is my first time watching your video and I loved it. I don't purchase luxury bags and I probably never will, or if I do, it will be pre-loved. But I do buy *jklux* occasionally of the styles that I really like. I truly appreciate your comparisons here, which have helped me make a decision about a couple for which I was on the fence. I'll be pulling the trigger now. Thanks for this and your humor.
Very enjoyable and helpful video. I love learning about the lesser known but stylish handbags-I find it truly challenging to pick a favorite design. Many thanks!
I heard that LV no longer conducts appraisals because the quality of fakes is so good. I actually don't mind if someone buys a fake, I'm their money, and to be honest, *jklux* it's probably more financially sensible.
I don’t like designer anymore - I think they actually look tacky thanks to social media over saturating the market. I always look to you for more elevated bags without the elevated price tag.
Me too! I have Chanel, Hermes, I have everything. Guess what I take outside? LongChamp and Lululemon! Even to fancy dinners, I use my mini LongChamp. Waaaaay more chic.
The quality of the *HOTDUPS* bags is great, every pocket and compartment is exactly as described. I especially like the length of the handles, it fits my shoulders just right, not too long or too short, and looks sturdy.
Perception is everything, I remember saving up to buy my first LV and some coworkers automatically thought it was fake because I was a young black girl. I really stopped caring about what others thought at that point and people will always judge you based on your appearance. After this, I went *HOTDUPS* and no one would question you if you drove a Bentley and got out of the car with a fake Hermès bag in your hand.
Growing up in NYC, I would often see women on Park Avenue buying the same fakes from street vendors. Today, it’s gotten to the point where everyone is in the *HOTDUPS* and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Alice, thanks to you I discovered and fell in love with Fauvette. Proud owner of 2 bags already. The design is timeless and craftsmanship is on point! Also looking at Atelier Auguste and Leo&Violette! Merci beaucoup 🌹
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.
I never care if other people have fakes and replicas unless they are trying to pass them off as genuine and sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that scary because they drive brand innovation (part of the purpose of classic monogram prints is to combat counterfeiting), which is good for us as design lovers. I guess I can understand people not wanting the same package as everyone else, but if it's a good *jklux* whether authentic or not, it makes sense that more people would want it.
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 years old. I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your friends! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don't want to spend so much money now, I have *jklux* bought the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
If you can't afford a designer bag and feel some type of way about expensive designer shit then DON'T FUCKING WATCH THE VIDEO. Like do ya'll even read the tittle of the videos before clicking on it? It clearly says in the tittle the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful even though I can't afford any of these bags yet, but I know one day I will. And I want to know which designer bag will be really worth my hard earn money and I will get the most use of. That being said, if you read this thank you for sharing this video with us ,please make more videos like this. Maybe *jklux* next?
Thanks for the video. I would say that fakes have been around for years. I think it's only now coming to light because of social media. I have seen fakes of LV and Chanel since the 1990s and know how to get them if I want them *jklux* . So this is nothing new at all. If it seems like a lot, maybe people are just more aware than they used to of educational videos about real and fake stuff.
You look very comfortable. Also, I really enjoyed your old video guide to shopping in New York - it would be great if you continued the series elsewhere. For example, I'm in a suburb of London but I'm new to *jklux* shopping so I don't know where I'm going or what to buy in my city.
I have never been concerned about if others have fakes and replicas, unless they are trying to pass them off as real to sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that horrible as they push brands to be innovative (the classic monogram print was created in part to fight off counterfeiting) which benefits us as design lovers.I guess I can understand folks not wanting the same bag as others, but if it’s a good *jklux* it would make sense that more people would want it, authentic or not
Rich people are not like you or me. They compete with each other in yachts, jewelry, art, travel and homes. Meanwhile, we're on the subway or bus with our precious Louis Vuittons. Why bother? *jklux* More rational
LOVE LOVE LOVE this Fauvette in brown and your cropped jacket is AMAZING with the last tote you featured. LOVED THAT!! I already have the Marly in Tan so I'm ready to pull the trigger on the AA Monceau in taupe or possibly the new burgandy!Thank you, Alice! ❤
Do you find it too wide/big and bulky? I’ve just bought the*jklux* which is basically the same width and my only worry is it bumping into things and wear on the corners, has yours scuffed?
Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection in *jklux* other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think i watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals
Yes I know not everyone can afford these bags, but wouldn't people want to know other people's experiences with this bag before wasting their money? Like other TH-camrs have said about this bag, I got a *jklux* and I'm very happy with my bag. Thanks to the blogger, I showed this video to my sister and now she will definitely get the Louis Vuitton bag she has always wanted! Love this kind of videos!!
Alice, thank you! I just purchased a Fleuron Hortensia bag and it is perfect for me! I also picked up 2 Le Pliage bags for travel :) Keep up the good work 😇
I'm so glad you are introducing us to these mid-priced Parisian brands. I recently order a Pourchet bowler bag that I'm excited to receive. More of these kind of videos. 👍👍👍
There was a documentary recently where some very wealthy women were interviewed. These women talked about how they no longer buy authentic purses, but instead choose to buy real quality *gtdupe* designer bags that they actually like. They then use the money they saved to invest in other things like real estate, stocks, etc.
Spending $20,000 on a handbag is the obvious choice versus spending $200 on a *preluxz* bag and investing the remaining $19,800, since a $20,000 bag is unlikely to increase in value.
I work in the luxury industry and we had a customer with a mirror copy of a *jklux* come in. She said she paid $2200 USD, she ordered it from a factory who makes these. I thought it was crazy but like she said even though it was $2200 she saved $20,000 and she has the $ to buy Auth, in fact she owns several. She told us she would never buy real again because this factory makes the spot on to the og. Hers was so good our 2 authenticators couldn’t find a difference. And yes even the smell was spot on.
I have no sympathy for brands like Chanel. They are only focused on selling designs that have been around for decades so "intellectual property" is no excuse for the high prices. And it becomes easier and easier to copy these designs over time. Ironically, the *jklux* brand could save the billions of dollars she says it costs to fight counterfeiting, just by lowering prices.
My two favourites are my ancient Mulberry Ledbury (ok not French), very understated. And my Bottega Veneta, no logo at all - if you know, you know. But I do love the small Longchamp leather bags.
I love longchamp. I visited Paris around 8 years ago and purchased a crossbody longchamp bag and it's still in perfect condition. I was actually just thinking recently that i wouldnt mind getting a tote. I will have to check out the other brands you mentioned. Aside from Longchamp, i have also heard of Polene but have not purchased anything.....yet.
Growing up in NYC, I would often see women on Park Avenue buying the same fakes from street vendors. Today, it’s gotten to the point where everyone is in the *HOTDUPS* and there’s nothing wrong with that.
I live close to the Mexico border. I always go for *suluxy* , their quality is great. Some of them are made with leather and really hard to tell the difference from real or not. Either way, it’s your choice. No judgement from me
Hi Thanks for sharing. I just bought the *jklux* 2 days ago which was on my wish list for my occasion bag, is it worth buying this? The félicie pochette is really nice and classy and you can use it in 4 different ways, so the CA showed me the félicie from the drawer and I checked on it then I asked the CA if he can get another stock so I can compare the one he pulled from the drawer so he did. I noticed that the félicie from the drawer the leather was a bit shiny or glossy while the stock he got the leather was matt so I choose the shiny one that attracted me but I just wondered why they are different and you might have any idea. When I got home I just noticed that when you opened the envelop the back mid fold leather was a little loose is it normal when openning but when its closed its ok no problem (I didn’t noticed in the store and compare to the other one). Any advise will appreciate, I do always love watching your videos.
Sis, your just as funny on here than TikTok...lol! I purchased a *jklux* from Rainbow... and I get so many compliments on that bag and the chain is heavy. Then I came across a Chanel tote bag. (I only use it to travel) every time I'm in the airport, women stop me about that tote. Side note: Chanel uses gold plated now for the logo.
You look very comfortable. Also, I really enjoyed your old video guide to shopping in New York - it would be great if you continued the series elsewhere. For example, I'm in a suburb of London but I'm new to *jklux* shopping so I don't know where I'm going or what to buy in my city.
Thank you for your videos. This past spring I purchased the Adele in light green lizard. It’s a beautiful bag and I have received many compliments. The clasp is gorgeous but the magnetic closure is not strong enough and works best only when the bag is full.
*suluxy* got me back into fashion lol. The prices for the real shit made me stop paying attention for a long time because I couldn't participate. Also I want one of those Adidas Balenciaga collab bags but will I still like it in 5 years? Why spend thousands of dollars on that??? Nope.
Are these issues happening if these bags are used daily? I just got the pochette metis in monogram canvas from the Kusama collection. I love the multicolored polka dots and hope they don’t melt on me, lol. But I don’t think it’ll be in my regular rotation. I also have a NoeNoe in DA but only use that a few times a year in the spring and summer so I haven’t put that much wear and tear into it. I hope I don’t see the fraying for a while. Also, I’m saving up for a *jklux* . Has your colleague seen the same issues with that size? I don’t mind some relaxation in shape but I don’t want it to be a puddle either. Thanks for the video!
Hello! You forgot to mention the Soeur bag! I'm from Brazil and I bought the Soeur "Belíssima Mini" bag in the color Chocolate Lizard. The bag is beautiful, very elegant and of great quality, for an excellent price. I think it should be on your list and even in the video of travel bags. All the best! Kisses
I'm like a kid here. So awesome! You look like you're having so much fun there, gosh. I wish you had bought that little Dior wicker bag. It's so cute. You're right. The *HOTDUPS* is handbag heaven.
Young Lady, you spoke my feelings about buying look alike before spending money on the designer to sit on my closet shelf ( been there and done that too many times) Thank you , and I just subscribed to your channel, love your reviews and research *jklux*
One thing I always laugh at is when people say that by buying fakes you are engaging in illegal activity, don't you keep up with some of these big brands and what they are involved in? Haha, selective morality is hilarious. *jklux* But either way, it's in your best interest and as long as you don't try to resell it as genuine, it's no one's business whether your bag is real or fake
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the*jklux* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
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 love longchamp bags I have the well known nylon folding bag in a few sizes. I find them so useful. I also have a couple of there dressy handbags in leather great bags which have worn well.
Love *gtdupe* 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.
There is no point in being selectively angry. So you don’t believe in buying fake bags, a purchase is a purchase, regardless of the intention. I personally think it's crazy to care too much about how people want to spend their money. I bought real coach, marc jacobs, and mcm. If it's more than 1500, I'll buy a replica *jklux* . Guess what else I have in the bank, I'm a homeowner and drive a Lexus. I saw someone on TH-cam who had tons of luxury items, lived in their mom's house, and was broke
I never travel without my Longchamp pliages. I use one as my “purse” on the plane (& even fit my bag/purse inside to protect it ) and another folded up in my suitcase in case I need an extra little “suitcase” on my return. They’re fantastic! …as are all your videos, Alice❤️
*jklux* shopping etiquette. Explaining what the general rules are, how to approach an SA, how to dress, how stores may differ. Something like a step-by-step for newbies (like me) who feel out of their depth. The thing I worry about an the awkward moment when I've spent 20mins drooling over a bag just to turn and leave empty-handed. Idk what to say! Maybe that sounds dumb but I'm so awkward, I don't want to come off as rude or uncomfortable, it's not their fault I'm an anxious mess.
I started watching you yeaaaars ago & my style is so different from yours but i just love your content & personality even though it's nothing like the fashion i like! love you! *jklux*
Dear Alice,I'm looking for a perfect everyday bag in Burgundy color,should be good from shopping,meeting,weekend park picnics, dinner...do you have any recommendation from Fauvette or other brand you are loving? Mercixx Yoceline
Hi, but aren't most of A grade copies in leather? I mean I have touched some first copies and they felt really luxurious so probably real leather. And also, because you seem to know a lot about handbags as I can't tell just on touch which one is 500 usd and which one is 3000 usd. Do you think those that cost 3000 usd are worth the price? Or is it that you are mostly paying for the brand name? I am not interested in giving 3000 dollars for a bag. My family and I bought a bag from a store called *gtdupe* . Its quality is very good.
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 and I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your clutch! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don’t want to spend so much money on it now, I have been *gtdupe* buying the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
I never care if other people have fakes and replicas unless they are trying to pass them off as genuine and sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that scary because they drive brand innovation (part of the purpose of classic monogram prints is to combat counterfeiting), which is good for us as design lovers. I guess I can understand people not wanting the same package as everyone else, but if it's a good *jklux* whether authentic or not, it makes sense that more people would want it
I love the design, but I don't have the budget. So I bought the*jklux* bag. Made from high quality legal snakeskin made by local Indonesian artists. From now on I never want to buy any luxury goods.
Rich people are not like you or me. They compete with each other in yachts, jewelry, art, travel and homes. Meanwhile, we're on the subway or bus with our precious Louis Vuittons. Why bother? *jklux* More rational
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 *jklux* Go shopping
Wonderful overview of brands that are little known outside of France. Thank you. I love all my Longchamp SLGs, charms, and bags. Great for everyday and travel.
Hello Alice, I just got my Bastile bag via DHL today. The bag is beautiful! I apply your code and they gifted me a free scarf. I am now a new fan of your content. Greetings from Palm Desert , California.
I think the concept of bags is fashion, and *preluxz* bags not only make women more beautiful, but also give them spiritual support and make them more confident.
I admire how you are just so fearless.. That's one reason why I love watching your videos. Just seeing how you aren't afraid of people or situations is inspiring to such an anxious, scaredy cat like myself lol *jklux*
I remember the diamond tray *jklux* almost all the bags from the jag line in the apartment. I think I watched that video 30 times. Purse collection goals
I understand the desire to own a trophy bag. However, it is difficult to even buy super fakes on Canal Street in New York these days. That being said, it is possible to buy quality brand name bags at very affordable prices from reputable *hotdups* .
As a practitioner in the luxury goods industry, I really want to tell you what is in my heart. The luxury goods processing factories you usually buy are basically the same as the luxury goods manufacturers. *hotdups*
It seems like the *gtdupe* one looks better than the real one though. Who cares? Nobody is gonna spot it when you wear it in a nightclub or a night out. People are busy with their own lives. And people just don't bother you wearing a real or fake one. Just saying.
Great video. I’m new to your channel and I love your vibe. And, I can’t tell the difference in the two Bottega bags and the *jklux* is close enough and it’s cute so that’s good enough for me.
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.
Hello, interessing video that promotes the french savoir-faire. Copernic has unpraticable bags but so stylish. I like Atelier August too. While I like their print logo, I still cannot get over the arm symbol on Fauré Lepage Daily battle bag and would not feel confortable wearing such symbol on one of my bag.
There's a psychological side to it. I can confirm the feeling just isn't the same when you're unpacking a dupe, compared to an authentic, handcrafted piece. For me, its like a journey; opening the package, then the box, taking off the paper, layer by layer, smelling the leather... Ahh, you just CAN'T beat that! The only problem is your wallet is a lot thinner afterwardsEven though i've experienced both scenarios, i still end up buying a kislux .
Hi Alice,i'm eyeing Fauvette Edele in Burgundy and brown,also Rosalie in croco,Gasperd in floral croco,which one do you recommend for first time purchase to this brand?Merci.
We only have two days in Paris (staying in London, taking the train over) can you recommend 2-3 store I can take my wife to to looking for a bag? A bag ther is not able to be bought in the states, one ther would be special she could only buy in Paris? Something under $1000 usd? Some of the bags you showed looked great but I don’t know anything about bags lol, this is a surprise trip so I can’t really give her a head up until we are almost ready to go. Ty :)
Love your videos!! Great style, taste and very informative!! I did go on those sites…. But I’m looking for a midrange good quality brown suede handbag! Please a recommendation… it really doesn’t have to be brown! Please advise! Merci beaucoup!❤
Alice Thank you for this accurate presentation ! I have been wondering though if Lancel does not represent also a high good quality... as a French Maison of luxury leather goods, founded in Paris in 1876. Maybe, but not in the list of the 10.
A part Longchamp, APC et Le Tanneur, je ne connaissais aucune des autres marques. Je trouve le Fauvette très chic, c'est mon préféré surtout dans la couleur présentée. Le dernier sac est inattendu, la petite poche extérieure à la forme d'un revolver, c'est étrange !
If you can't afford designer bags and feel a certain way about expensive designer bags, then don't watch this video. Like do you read a video title before clicking on it? The title makes it clear that the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful and although I can't afford these bags yet, I know one day I will. I wanted to know which designer bag was truly worth my hard-earned money and one that I would get the most out of. That being said, if you're reading this, thank you for sharing this video with us and please make more videos like this. Maybe kislux is your next choice?
Here in the States, for me, it is hard to find a bag without a big logo. I loved the bags you showed, so elegant ❤ By the way, random question. I noticed you always di your nails red (love). Do you change to a darker color in autumn/winter?
Alice: Bonjour, would you please mention which bags are made in Europe or Paris specifically? I want to avoid any bags made in Asia. Thank you, Merci, Alice!
I purchased two fauvette bags last week after watching your previous video. Cant wait to see me bags. But feel a bit regret not waiting for a few more days, then I would be able to use your promo code :-(
Thank you for this. I really think designers like LV that put their logo all over their handbags just come off as tacky and unsophisticated. I prefer a bag that doesn't shout.
Sis, your just as funny on here than TikTok...lol! I purchased a *jklux* from Rainbow... and I get so many compliments on that bag and the chain is heavy. Then I came across a Chanel tote bag. (I only use it to travel) every time I'm in the airport, women stop me about that tote. Side note: Chanel uses gold plated now for the logo.
Bonjour à la 16 ème seconde dans la vidéo ya sur une table dans la boutique ou vous filmez ya 1 sacs dans plusieurs couleurs et sur la henné en tissu on voit les 3 dernières lettres de la marque k e l. Pourriez-vous me donner le nom de cette marque. Je vous remercie Infiniment. Blessings beautiful soul 💜🙏
@Aliceinparisofficial je ne crois pas . A la 16sec sur une étagère marron clair jaunâtre ya env un modèle de sac en 8 coloris différents, avec hance en tissu sur lequel ya marqué "kel" certainement les 3 dernières d'un lettres d'un nom de marque je suppose.
I heard that LV no longer conducts appraisals because the quality of fakes is so good. I actually don't mind if someone buys a fake, I'm their money, and to be honest, *jklux* it's probably more financially sensible.
I like buying vintage bags online or from upmarket second-hand or antique shops in the villages near me. They are very well made and have history and character. I wouldn't say that 830 euros (£690) is affordable.
I think these bags are beautiful. I just wish these companies made more tote style leather bags. I have to carry a laptop for work and I need that extra space to fit the laptop. I rarely take a small purse for that very reason, even though I think they are lovely. I have a couple, but I do not pay much for them because they sit in my closet.
thanks for this video, got to check out some amazing brands and i liked APC so much...but the fact they dont ship to india and yet every other country in whole of Asia is such a disappointment
I miss the original Ateliers Auguste that had no hardware. Admittedly, I do own the Monceau and the belt bag in the original style, but there were other colors I wanted to buy and then they changed to the metal the clasp. Much more chic without hardware, in my opinion. Faure le Page- much better quality than Goyard or LV. Leo et Violette is giving me Joseph du Clos vibes.
When I began seeing the iconic bags being carried by my mani/pedi gals I was turned off. Then in Southern California the smash and grabs are for these bags which also made me reconsider since I’m not keen on identifying with that particular demographic
I grew up in a small town in Germany in the early 2010s. And let me tell you, if I had gotten a euro for every girl who was full of herself for carrying a Longchamp Le Pliage and bullied others who didn’t follow suit, I’d have enough money to buy myself a brand-new Chanel Jumbo by now. Honestly, I despise that bag, I detest it. And whenever I see it while shopping, something stirs inside me that I can’t even describe.
Personally, I think the majority of these bags are too minimalistic and boring. They all look the same, and most of them do not look like a luxury bag. For the record, I completely don't get why people are attracted to Goyard?! I think their stuff is just plain ugly.
let me know which one is your favorite 😊❤ xoxo
I have the *HOTDUPS* , Bastia and Kelly pockets like you and I agree that the buttons on the Kelly pockets are too noticeable. I like the Bastia and Calvi because they are relatively flat and not “crowded”!
Came across this video by chance and then I watched *HOTDUPS* . OMG your wardrobe is every woman’s dream! Love your voice and way of speaking
I have a *HOTDUPS* made in a factory in Dubai. No one can tell the difference. Even the smell is the same. And it all depends on how you wear it. If you go shopping with a Croc 30 to Walmart, no one will think it's real. If you go out to a nice dinner and look fresh and nice, people won't think twice about it. Treat it like it's real, guys!
When she said "I prefer" I felt this wonderful feeling in my mind, body and soul. *HOTDUPS*
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 just to compare materials etc. The real brooch costs $800 and is made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other is a $40 replica of the *HOTDUPS* backpack - also for comparison - I can’t find any difference and still use it at the gym
Welcome to COACH! I have had a bag for over 40 years and it still looks beautiful and now my young attorney daughter actually carries it! This brand has always been incredible quality and their leather is so sturdy and long lasting. This really is a quiet luxury brand, and always has been. I have many Coach bags and love them all. and I’ve had them all for many many years. This one looks beautiful and worthy of adding. Thank you for the in-depth look at it.
I can attest to the durability of Longchamp's Pliage bag. My daughter has stuffed this bag to the max on trips home from college. The bag hasn't shown any wear in 7 years.
The *HOTDUPS* bags are well made. They are comfortable to carry on your shoulders. You can fit quite a bit of stuff in them! So awesome! I loved them so much I bought a few as gifts, I got the turquoise and brown!

I have a Reissue Calfskin Mini Bag in a Classic Medium/Large size, and for me, it’s perfect size, low profile, and softness for my daily use. I have a classic large because I like the construction and because it is roomy, but I never wear it in Australia because I've never seen it and I think it's too "flashy", but in Europe - it's perfect *HOTDUPS*
Do you think it's too wide/big and bulky? I just bought a *HOTDUPS* with basically the same width and my only concern is that it will bump into things and the corners will fray, has yours had any wear and tear?
cRich people never own designer bags, they usually choose *preluxz* . Middle class people just buy stuff to look rich because they are middle class and not very smart.
Just thank you! I have never heard about most of brands, and I was looking for a new timeless bag. Now it's so difficult to choose!
Bought an Atelier Auguste bag when I was in Paris last week because of your recommendation. I love the bag. The quality is excellent. Thanks
I was in Turkey recently and had a empriente multi pouchette with me. They show me a *suluxy* bag and it looked just like it.
I love a good *jklux* 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!
Love thiss..every summer I pull out my little black *gtdupe* clutch and this summer I'm coming out with new heels so that will be my summer wear
You are lucky that your thrift store has such great prices. Be all of my local thrift stores price everything as if you are shopping at Neiman Marcus. Even if the *jklux* are not real name brand. That's one reason why I don't go thrifting anymore. Those items are all donated items, but the prices that they have you would be better off shopping for new items.
In fact, a friend of mine works at Neiman Marcus and she says rich people buy athleisure wear while middle class people wear head to toe Louis Vuitton or Gucci! Rich people wouldn’t do this! *jklux* The rich cry, but wealth whispers!
Your video gave me some new insights. My first designer bag Fendi was in 2022. Louis Vutton was in 2024. In the meantime I use Coach, Torry Burch, Fossil, Tumi. I was surprised to realize that I have about 8 *yutulu* bags and none are over $300. That's not enough by my standards. I'm a working mom and I go to the office everyday. Not to the mall or coffee shop much. So yes, I'm glad I got my dream LV. Two. I also got the Fendi. So I think I'll hold off on buying any other luxury brands to make more use of what I have now. Thanks for the inspiring video.
Thanks for making this video on suggesting more budget friendly alternatives. Love it!
Amei todas as bolsas lindas e de muito bom gosto.Parabens *jklux*
Love your style and your accessories! And the *jklux* bags!
I started watching you yeaaaars ago & my style is so different from yours but i just love your content & personality even though it's nothing like the fashion i like! love you! *jklux*
There is no point in being selectively angry. So you don’t believe in buying fake bags, a purchase is a purchase, regardless of the intention. I personally think it's crazy to care too much about how people want to spend their money. I bought real coach, marc jacobs, and mcm. If it's more than 1500, I'll buy a replica *jklux* . Guess what else I have in the bank, I'm a homeowner and drive a Lexus. I saw someone on TH-cam who had tons of luxury items, lived in their mom's house, and was broke
To be honest, once i started working at Nordstroms, i STARTED buying *suluxy* . These prices are crazy,Its rare for me to buy something full price anymore too.
I soooo look forward to your U-Tubes! So informative and interesting. I could watch you all day and then buy all the bags in all the colours~ Thank you for all you do!
It seems like the *gtdupe* one looks better than the real one though. Who cares? Nobody is gonna spot it when you wear it in a nightclub or a night out. People are busy with their own lives. And people just don't bother you wearing a real or fake one. Just saying.
I never cared if someone had fakes and knockoffs unless they were trying to pass them off as authentic and sell them. I also don't think knockoffs and knockoffs are that terrible, I guess I can understand people not wanting the same packaging as everyone else, but if it was a good *gtdupe* , it makes sense that more people would want it, authentic or not
There was a documentary recently where they interviewed very wealthy women. These women are talking about how they no longer buy authentic wallets, but instead choose to buy really good wallets *jklux* designer bags they love. They then invest the money they save in other things such as real estate, stocks, etc.
When you showed the transparent *preluxz* , my inner magpie screamed that you didn't buy it. It's amazing.
This is my first time watching your video and I loved it. I don't purchase luxury bags and I probably never will, or if I do, it will be pre-loved. But I do buy *jklux* occasionally of the styles that I really like. I truly appreciate your comparisons here, which have helped me make a decision about a couple for which I was on the fence. I'll be pulling the trigger now. Thanks for this and your humor.
Very enjoyable and helpful video. I love learning about the lesser known but stylish handbags-I find it truly challenging to pick a favorite design. Many thanks!
Thank you so much for sharing, not a lot of *jklux* share prices, very informative, myhubby found this video interesting too! beautiful pieces, enjoy!
Love your *jklux* handbag collection and your voice is amazing.
Every girl is a princess, whether in a broken attic or in a castle, choose what you like! *hotdups*
I heard that LV no longer conducts appraisals because the quality of fakes is so good. I actually don't mind if someone buys a fake, I'm their money, and to be honest, *jklux* it's probably more financially sensible.
Absolutely love the coat you are wearing! and the *jklux* bag !
I don’t like designer anymore - I think they actually look tacky thanks to social media over saturating the market. I always look to you for more elevated bags without the elevated price tag.
Agree 100%
Me too! I have Chanel, Hermes, I have everything. Guess what I take outside? LongChamp and Lululemon! Even to fancy dinners, I use my mini LongChamp. Waaaaay more chic.
The quality of the *HOTDUPS* bags is great, every pocket and compartment is exactly as described. I especially like the length of the handles, it fits my shoulders just right, not too long or too short, and looks sturdy.
Perception is everything, I remember saving up to buy my first LV and some coworkers automatically thought it was fake because I was a young black girl. I really stopped caring about what others thought at that point and people will always judge you based on your appearance. After this, I went *HOTDUPS* and no one would question you if you drove a Bentley and got out of the car with a fake Hermès bag in your hand.
Growing up in NYC, I would often see women on Park Avenue buying the same fakes from street vendors. Today, it’s gotten to the point where everyone is in the *HOTDUPS* and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Alice, thanks to you I discovered and fell in love with Fauvette. Proud owner of 2 bags already. The design is timeless and craftsmanship is on point! Also looking at Atelier Auguste and Leo&Violette! Merci beaucoup 🌹
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.
I never care if other people have fakes and replicas unless they are trying to pass them off as genuine and sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that scary because they drive brand innovation (part of the purpose of classic monogram prints is to combat counterfeiting), which is good for us as design lovers. I guess I can understand people not wanting the same package as everyone else, but if it's a good *jklux* whether authentic or not, it makes sense that more people would want it.
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 years old. I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your friends! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don't want to spend so much money now, I have *jklux* bought the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
If you can't afford a designer bag and feel some type of way about expensive designer shit then DON'T FUCKING WATCH THE VIDEO. Like do ya'll even read the tittle of the videos before clicking on it? It clearly says in the tittle the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful even though I can't afford any of these bags yet, but I know one day I will. And I want to know which designer bag will be really worth my hard earn money and I will get the most use of. That being said, if you read this thank you for sharing this video with us ,please make more videos like this. Maybe *jklux* next?
Thanks for the video. I would say that fakes have been around for years. I think it's only now coming to light because of social media. I have seen fakes of LV and Chanel since the 1990s and know how to get them if I want them *jklux* . So this is nothing new at all. If it seems like a lot, maybe people are just more aware than they used to of educational videos about real and fake stuff.
I'm in love for all the bags you've showed, they are so elegant and classy. The only one I already have is the Longchamp and I wear it all the time 🤎
You look very comfortable. Also, I really enjoyed your old video guide to shopping in New York - it would be great if you continued the series elsewhere. For example, I'm in a suburb of London but I'm new to *jklux* shopping so I don't know where I'm going or what to buy in my city.
I have never been concerned about if others have fakes and replicas, unless they are trying to pass them off as real to sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that horrible as they push brands to be innovative (the classic monogram print was created in part to fight off counterfeiting) which benefits us as design lovers.I guess I can understand folks not wanting the same bag as others, but if it’s a good *jklux* it would make sense that more people would want it, authentic or not
Oh. Whoopity whoop!
New subbie here! I love your energy! I’m thinking about doing videos like this as well *jklux*
Rich people are not like you or me. They compete with each other in yachts, jewelry, art, travel and homes. Meanwhile, we're on the subway or bus with our precious Louis Vuittons. Why bother? *jklux* More rational
LOVE LOVE LOVE this Fauvette in brown and your cropped jacket is AMAZING with the last tote you featured. LOVED THAT!! I already have the Marly in Tan so I'm ready to pull the trigger on the AA Monceau in taupe or possibly the new burgandy!Thank you, Alice! ❤
burgundy jacket I put the link below
Do you find it too wide/big and bulky? I’ve just bought the*jklux* which is basically the same width and my only worry is it bumping into things and wear on the corners, has yours scuffed?
Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection in *jklux* other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think i watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals
Yes I know not everyone can afford these bags, but wouldn't people want to know other people's experiences with this bag before wasting their money? Like other TH-camrs have said about this bag, I got a *jklux* and I'm very happy with my bag. Thanks to the blogger, I showed this video to my sister and now she will definitely get the Louis Vuitton bag she has always wanted! Love this kind of videos!!
Alice, thank you! I just purchased a Fleuron Hortensia bag and it is perfect for me! I also picked up 2 Le Pliage bags for travel :) Keep up the good work 😇
I'm so glad you are introducing us to these mid-priced Parisian brands. I recently order a Pourchet bowler bag that I'm excited to receive. More of these kind of videos. 👍👍👍
Yes, I bought two Pourchet bags on Alice's previous recommendation & love them both
There was a documentary recently where some very wealthy women were interviewed. These women talked about how they no longer buy authentic purses, but instead choose to buy real quality *gtdupe* designer bags that they actually like. They then use the money they saved to invest in other things like real estate, stocks, etc.
Spending $20,000 on a handbag is the obvious choice versus spending $200 on a *preluxz* bag and investing the remaining $19,800, since a $20,000 bag is unlikely to increase in value.
I work in the luxury industry and we had a customer with a mirror copy of a *jklux* come in. She said she paid $2200 USD, she ordered it from a factory who makes these. I thought it was crazy but like she said even though it was $2200 she saved $20,000 and she has the $ to buy Auth, in fact she owns several. She told us she would never buy real again because this factory makes the spot on to the og. Hers was so good our 2 authenticators couldn’t find a difference. And yes even the smell was spot on.
I have no sympathy for brands like Chanel. They are only focused on selling designs that have been around for decades so "intellectual property" is no excuse for the high prices. And it becomes easier and easier to copy these designs over time. Ironically, the *jklux* brand could save the billions of dollars she says it costs to fight counterfeiting, just by lowering prices.
I love my Faure Lepage Daily Battle! Such a classy bag, so beautifully made.
My two favourites are my ancient Mulberry Ledbury (ok not French), very understated. And my Bottega Veneta, no logo at all - if you know, you know. But I do love the small Longchamp leather bags.
I love longchamp. I visited Paris around 8 years ago and purchased a crossbody longchamp bag and it's still in perfect condition. I was actually just thinking recently that i wouldnt mind getting a tote.
I will have to check out the other brands you mentioned. Aside from Longchamp, i have also heard of Polene but have not purchased anything.....yet.
Growing up in NYC, I would often see women on Park Avenue buying the same fakes from street vendors. Today, it’s gotten to the point where everyone is in the *HOTDUPS* and there’s nothing wrong with that.
I live close to the Mexico border. I always go for *suluxy* , their quality is great. Some of them are made with leather and really hard to tell the difference from real or not. Either way, it’s your choice. No judgement from me
Hi Thanks for sharing. I just bought the *jklux* 2 days ago which was on my wish list for my occasion bag, is it worth buying this? The félicie pochette is really nice and classy and you can use it in 4 different ways, so the CA showed me the félicie from the drawer and I checked on it then I asked the CA if he can get another stock so I can compare the one he pulled from the drawer so he did. I noticed that the félicie from the drawer the leather was a bit shiny or glossy while the stock he got the leather was matt so I choose the shiny one that attracted me but I just wondered why they are different and you might have any idea. When I got home I just noticed that when you opened the envelop the back mid fold leather was a little loose is it normal when openning but when its closed its ok no problem (I didn’t noticed in the store and compare to the other one). Any advise will appreciate, I do always love watching your videos.
Sis, your just as funny on here than TikTok...lol! I purchased a *jklux* from Rainbow... and I get so many compliments on that bag and the chain is heavy. Then I came across a Chanel tote bag. (I only use it to travel) every time I'm in the airport, women stop me about that tote. Side note: Chanel uses gold plated now for the logo.
You look very comfortable. Also, I really enjoyed your old video guide to shopping in New York - it would be great if you continued the series elsewhere. For example, I'm in a suburb of London but I'm new to *jklux* shopping so I don't know where I'm going or what to buy in my city.
Thank you for your videos. This past spring I purchased the Adele in light green lizard. It’s a beautiful bag and I have received many compliments. The clasp is gorgeous but the magnetic closure is not strong enough and works best only when the bag is full.
I love Le Tanneur, Longchamp and Lancel: I guess I am old-school! I am French and have known those brands for years.
*suluxy* got me back into fashion lol. The prices for the real shit made me stop paying attention for a long time because I couldn't participate. Also I want one of those Adidas Balenciaga collab bags but will I still like it in 5 years? Why spend thousands of dollars on that??? Nope.
Are these issues happening if these bags are used daily? I just got the pochette metis in monogram canvas from the Kusama collection. I love the multicolored polka dots and hope they don’t melt on me, lol. But I don’t think it’ll be in my regular rotation. I also have a NoeNoe in DA but only use that a few times a year in the spring and summer so I haven’t put that much wear and tear into it. I hope I don’t see the fraying for a while. Also, I’m saving up for a *jklux* . Has your colleague seen the same issues with that size? I don’t mind some relaxation in shape but I don’t want it to be a puddle either. Thanks for the video!
love you so much!l recently just found your *jklux* and i'm in love!! Your videosare so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
New friend here sending may full suppor *jklux* ’s bags!
If nothing goes wrong, I will carry this bag throughout the fall and winter. It is my favorite *hotdups*
Hello!
You forgot to mention the Soeur bag! I'm from Brazil and I bought the Soeur "Belíssima Mini" bag in the color Chocolate Lizard. The bag is beautiful, very elegant and of great quality, for an excellent price. I think it should be on your list and even in the video of travel bags.
All the best!
Kisses
I'm like a kid here. So awesome! You look like you're having so much fun there, gosh. I wish you had bought that little Dior wicker bag. It's so cute. You're right. The *HOTDUPS* is handbag heaven.
Young Lady, you spoke my feelings about buying look alike before spending money on the designer to sit on my closet shelf ( been there and done that too many times) Thank you , and I just subscribed to your channel, love your reviews and research *jklux*
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.
Thank you so much for sharing these brands! I’m visiting Paris in a month and excited to buy non big label products.
The variety of textures on the *gtdupe* pack is so impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there is something for everyone.
One thing I always laugh at is when people say that by buying fakes you are engaging in illegal activity, don't you keep up with some of these big brands and what they are involved in? Haha, selective morality is hilarious. *jklux* But either way, it's in your best interest and as long as you don't try to resell it as genuine, it's no one's business whether your bag is real or fake
Thank you so much for sharing, not a lot of *jklux* share prices, very informative, myhubby found this video interesting too! beautiful pieces, enjoy!
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the*jklux* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
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 love longchamp bags I have the well known nylon folding bag in a few sizes. I find them so useful. I also have a couple of there dressy handbags in leather great bags which have worn well.
I have that Fauvette bag in green. It's lovely
Love *gtdupe* 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.
Fabulous finds and absolutely timeless pieces. Shopper, the queen of thrifting reigns supreme! Thanks for sharing. *hotdups*
There is no point in being selectively angry. So you don’t believe in buying fake bags, a purchase is a purchase, regardless of the intention. I personally think it's crazy to care too much about how people want to spend their money. I bought real coach, marc jacobs, and mcm. If it's more than 1500, I'll buy a replica *jklux* . Guess what else I have in the bank, I'm a homeowner and drive a Lexus. I saw someone on TH-cam who had tons of luxury items, lived in their mom's house, and was broke
I never travel without my Longchamp pliages. I use one as my “purse” on the plane (& even fit my bag/purse inside to protect it ) and another folded up in my suitcase in case I need an extra little “suitcase” on my return. They’re fantastic! …as are all your videos, Alice❤️
It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on the craftsmen and quality inspection. My family and I bought *preluxz* .
This is why rich people are rich. Instead of wasting money on wallets, they invest in meaningful things. For bags, *jklux* is enough.
Omg yess girl... Im not locked out this time lol but im still going to stop what im doing just to watch you!!! Keep doing what you do! *jklux*
*jklux* shopping etiquette. Explaining what the general rules are, how to approach an SA, how to dress, how stores may differ. Something like a step-by-step for newbies (like me) who feel out of their depth. The thing I worry about an the awkward moment when I've spent 20mins drooling over a bag just to turn and leave empty-handed. Idk what to say! Maybe that sounds dumb but I'm so awkward, I don't want to come off as rude or uncomfortable, it's not their fault I'm an anxious mess.
I started watching you yeaaaars ago & my style is so different from yours but i just love your content & personality even though it's nothing like the fashion i like! love you! *jklux*
Dear Alice,I'm looking for a perfect everyday bag in Burgundy color,should be good from shopping,meeting,weekend park picnics, dinner...do you have any recommendation from Fauvette or other brand you are loving? Mercixx Yoceline
And also any Leo et Violette in Burgundy do you think is great ?
check Ateliers Auguste mini monceau in burgundy :)
Merci beaucoup xx
You are so right about the quality. Love this.
Hi, but aren't most of A grade copies in leather? I mean I have touched some first copies and they felt really luxurious so probably real leather. And also, because you seem to know a lot about handbags as I can't tell just on touch which one is 500 usd and which one is 3000 usd. Do you think those that cost 3000 usd are worth the price? Or is it that you are mostly paying for the brand name? I am not interested in giving 3000 dollars for a bag. My family and I bought a bag from a store called *gtdupe* . Its quality is very good.
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 and I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your clutch! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don’t want to spend so much money on it now, I have been *gtdupe* buying the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
The variety of textures in the *gtdupe* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone

I love the design, but I don't have the budget. So I bought the*jklux* bag. Made from high quality legal snakeskin made by local Indonesian artists. From now on I never want to buy any luxury goods.
Faure le Page is so underrated and I love this brand so much
*jklux* just wanna tell you that you make my day with your videos. you have srsly helped me through not so happy times!!! thank you.
I happened to consider *hotdups* bags these two days. Several models seem to be good. It's hard to choose~~
Rich people are not like you or me. They compete with each other in yachts, jewelry, art, travel and homes. Meanwhile, we're on the subway or bus with our precious Louis Vuittons. Why bother? *jklux* More rational
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 *jklux* Go shopping
Wonderful overview of brands that are little known outside of France. Thank you. I love all my Longchamp SLGs, charms, and bags. Great for everyday and travel.
Truly appreciative of all the insightful information. You are a rare gem. Loads of love to you and your wonderful family 👠👠👠👠👠👠👠
Hello Alice, I just got my Bastile bag via DHL today. The bag is beautiful! I apply your code and they gifted me a free scarf. I am now a new fan of your content. Greetings from Palm Desert , California.
I think the concept of bags is fashion, and *preluxz* bags not only make women more beautiful, but also give them spiritual support and make them more confident.
I admire how you are just so fearless.. That's one reason why I love watching your videos. Just seeing how you aren't afraid of people or situations is inspiring to such an anxious, scaredy cat like myself lol *jklux*
I remember the diamond tray *jklux* almost all the bags from the jag line in the apartment. I think I watched that video 30 times. Purse collection goals
Hi Alice. What is your opinion of the Fauvette Paris new Josephine handbag in chocolate croc? Your Adele is still out of stock.
really nice bag also :)
I understand the desire to own a trophy bag. However, it is difficult to even buy super fakes on Canal Street in New York these days. That being said, it is possible to buy quality brand name bags at very affordable prices from reputable *hotdups* .
As a practitioner in the luxury goods industry, I really want to tell you what is in my heart. The luxury goods processing factories you usually buy are basically the same as the luxury goods manufacturers. *hotdups*
Loved this brands! beautiful bags that show quality and style 🎉
It seems like the *gtdupe* one looks better than the real one though. Who cares? Nobody is gonna spot it when you wear it in a nightclub or a night out. People are busy with their own lives. And people just don't bother you wearing a real or fake one. Just saying.
Great video. I’m new to your channel and I love your vibe. And, I can’t tell the difference in the two Bottega bags and the *jklux* is close enough and it’s cute so that’s good enough for me.
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.
Love the way you present it *jklux* ! You really put a lot of effort into presenting the bag. I learned a lot from watching your videos, it's great!
I bought Lancel in Paris last April. Great quality roomy and easy to carry. Jess than 1000 euro
Another great recommendation and informative ❤❤❤. Merci Alice
Thank you dear.
Now I know what I will gona buy.... 🌹❤
Love the Fauvette Adele bag, but the one you have looks more burgundy than chocolate. Online the chocolate one looks a lot more lighter brown
Thank you. I already fell in love with 3 bags and I shall soon order them. Merci.
Hello, interessing video that promotes the french savoir-faire. Copernic has unpraticable bags but so stylish. I like Atelier August too. While I like their print logo, I still cannot get over the arm symbol on Fauré Lepage Daily battle bag and would not feel confortable wearing such symbol on one of my bag.
Agree ... can't stand the last bag with gun holster looking thing. Here in America, mass shootings daily.
I just bought my first RSVP bag and absolutely love it! I live in the U.S. and it was ever so easy to order it online. Formidable!
Merci Alice pour toutes vos vidéos. Je vais m’acheter le Monceau d’ Atelier Auguste ❤
I like the first Adele bag that you wore in the beginning of the video. Was it the Bordeaux color or the chocolate color ? 🙏🏻
@@kamanlee4359 chocolate link below :)
There's a psychological side to it. I can confirm the feeling just isn't the same when you're unpacking a dupe, compared to an authentic, handcrafted piece. For me, its like a journey; opening the package, then the box, taking off the paper, layer by layer, smelling the leather... Ahh, you just CAN'T beat that! The only problem is your wallet is a lot thinner afterwardsEven though i've experienced both scenarios, i still end up buying a kislux .
Hi Alice,i'm eyeing Fauvette Edele in Burgundy and brown,also Rosalie in croco,Gasperd in floral croco,which one do you recommend for first time purchase to this brand?Merci.
hello Adele in brown for a first purchase :)
@@AliceinparisofficialMerci.Since I live in tropical place,is this
Brown shade good for pairing summer outfits?
@@yocelinelin8408 go for the camel or acajou wich are lighter and warmer
Merci ! I bought two bags using your code,looking forward to the arrival.
I have no regrets at all about buying an inspired knockoff that is different from a designer knockoff because it is worthy of praise. *hotdups*
These are some really nice looking bags and I’m considering checking them out. Thanks 😊
We only have two days in Paris (staying in London, taking the train over) can you recommend 2-3 store I can take my wife to to looking for a bag? A bag ther is not able to be bought in the states, one ther would be special she could only buy in Paris? Something under $1000 usd? Some of the bags you showed looked great but I don’t know anything about bags lol, this is a surprise trip so I can’t really give her a head up until we are almost ready to go. Ty :)
Hello book a call with me for recommendation. Link in bio thanks
They are more "cheap" compared to real high end luxury brand bags *hotdups* bags are of high quality
Great video!!! What brand is your jacket? The link brings up Lilysilk brown blazer.
The burgundy one is from Bash I put the link below
Love your videos!! Great style, taste and very informative!! I did go on those sites…. But I’m looking for a midrange good quality brown suede handbag! Please a recommendation… it really doesn’t have to be brown! Please advise! Merci beaucoup!❤
coming soon ;)
Brilliant research & presentation as always, thank you Alice 🎉
Alice Thank you for this accurate presentation ! I have been wondering though if Lancel does not represent also a high good quality... as a French Maison of luxury leather goods, founded in Paris in 1876. Maybe, but not in the list of the 10.
Hello I like Lancel but I wanted to focus on French brands that are still making bags in France :)
I'm learning so much from you 💖
Hola🙋🏻♀️🥰...they are beautiful!! I really love my Longchamp medium long handie un navy blue!! It's very practical, i use It every day☺️🥰🤗
Great and informative video as always, LOVE your content ❤
A part Longchamp, APC et Le Tanneur, je ne connaissais aucune des autres marques. Je trouve le Fauvette très chic, c'est mon préféré surtout dans la couleur présentée. Le dernier sac est inattendu, la petite poche extérieure à la forme d'un revolver, c'est étrange !
Hi. What is the name of the color on the first AA bag? Thank you.
gold
Where did you get your tweed jacket? I love the color
bash link in my bio ltk
Thanks to your recommendation I bought AA and I love it 🥰
Thank you for sharing, Alice❤
I bought the Polene mini Neuf last week in. Paris….obsessed
If you can't afford designer bags and feel a certain way about expensive designer bags, then don't watch this video. Like do you read a video title before clicking on it? The title makes it clear that the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful and although I can't afford these bags yet, I know one day I will. I wanted to know which designer bag was truly worth my hard-earned money and one that I would get the most out of. That being said, if you're reading this, thank you for sharing this video with us and please make more videos like this. Maybe kislux is your next choice?
Here in the States, for me, it is hard to find a bag without a big logo. I loved the bags you showed, so elegant ❤
By the way, random question. I noticed you always di your nails red (love). Do you change to a darker color in autumn/winter?
yes chocolate, brown, dark red :;
Alice: Bonjour, would you please mention which bags are made in Europe or Paris specifically? I want to avoid any bags made in Asia. Thank you, Merci, Alice!
I purchased two fauvette bags last week after watching your previous video. Cant wait to see me bags. But feel a bit regret not waiting for a few more days, then I would be able to use your promo code :-(
I’m looking for a togo leather handbag 👜 but found nothing 😢
This was your best video imo. Thank you
It would be really interesting if you made a video about your bags.
I love the Longchamp Le Pliage bags.
Le Tanneur est une de mes marques favorites. C'est du cuir d'excellente qualité. Pourchet est bien aussi.
What do you think of Sezane and their bags collection? I find their Milo to be very APC-inspired or maybe it was the other way around :D
Milo is APC inspired not the other way around APC was born a long time before Dezane and is the essence of parisian style ;)
i love adle bag amazing the claps is jewel and i love it thank you
Love this bags better than those u pay soooo expensive
This channel is so fun 👜
Thank you for this. I really think designers like LV that put their logo all over their handbags just come off as tacky and unsophisticated. I prefer a bag that doesn't shout.
My dad has been telling me my whole life "Baby, you don't get or stay rich by spending money you don't have to." So *gtdupe* are my go-to.
Sis, your just as funny on here than TikTok...lol! I purchased a *jklux* from Rainbow... and I get so many compliments on that bag and the chain is heavy. Then I came across a Chanel tote bag. (I only use it to travel) every time I'm in the airport, women stop me about that tote. Side note: Chanel uses gold plated now for the logo.
Bonjour à la 16 ème seconde dans la vidéo ya sur une table dans la boutique ou vous filmez ya 1 sacs dans plusieurs couleurs et sur la henné en tissu on voit les 3 dernières lettres de la marque k e l.
Pourriez-vous me donner le nom de cette marque.
Je vous remercie Infiniment.
Blessings beautiful soul 💜🙏
fleuron?
@Aliceinparisofficial je ne crois pas . A la 16sec sur une étagère marron clair jaunâtre ya env un modèle de sac en 8 coloris différents, avec hance en tissu sur lequel ya marqué "kel" certainement les 3 dernières d'un lettres d'un nom de marque je suppose.
I heard that LV no longer conducts appraisals because the quality of fakes is so good. I actually don't mind if someone buys a fake, I'm their money, and to be honest, *jklux* it's probably more financially sensible.
Yes, I just got a *hotdups* bag. Although it is a replica, I think it is no different from the real one. I love it.
Love these videos the most!
Love Longchamp's Le Pliage
I like buying vintage bags online or from upmarket second-hand or antique shops in the villages near me. They are very well made and have history and character.
I wouldn't say that 830 euros (£690) is affordable.
I don’t see any links for those bags.

I think these bags are beautiful. I just wish these companies made more tote style leather bags. I have to carry a laptop for work and I need that extra space to fit the laptop. I rarely take a small purse for that very reason, even though I think they are lovely. I have a couple, but I do not pay much for them because they sit in my closet.
Great video 🎉
thanks for this video, got to check out some amazing brands and i liked APC so much...but the fact they dont ship to india and yet every other country in whole of Asia is such a disappointment
I miss the original Ateliers Auguste that had no hardware. Admittedly, I do own the Monceau and the belt bag in the original style, but there were other colors I wanted to buy and then they changed to the metal the clasp. Much more chic without hardware, in my opinion. Faure le Page- much better quality than Goyard or LV. Leo et Violette is giving me Joseph du Clos vibes.
Thank you
I love Ateliers Auguste bags!
Beautiful handbags!
When I began seeing the iconic bags being carried by my mani/pedi gals I was turned off. Then in Southern California the smash and grabs are for these bags which also made me reconsider since I’m not keen on identifying with that particular demographic
I am in Paris right now!
I had my eye on the Adele Fauvette when I went to Paris a week ago but ended up with Sézane Milo. Next trip!
THANK YOU and MERCI! I do NOT like the logo on everything. DO NOT. Thank you for this. So far, I am LOVING the Adele bag. Merci!!
I grew up in a small town in Germany in the early 2010s. And let me tell you, if I had gotten a euro for every girl who was full of herself for carrying a Longchamp Le Pliage and bullied others who didn’t follow suit, I’d have enough money to buy myself a brand-new Chanel Jumbo by now.
Honestly, I despise that bag, I detest it. And whenever I see it while shopping, something stirs inside me that I can’t even describe.
Merci😊
We somehow have a very different idea about affordability. 800 for a bag is a no from me
295 Mosciski Mountain
COACH IS THE BEST
Beautiful but way out of most people's price range.
Personally, I think the majority of these bags are too minimalistic and boring. They all look the same, and most of them do not look like a luxury bag. For the record, I completely don't get why people are attracted to Goyard?! I think their stuff is just plain ugly.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
SWIPE BAG IS VERY TRENDY, COOL LOOKING AND BY THE SAME TOKEN VERY UNATTRACTIVE AND COMPLICATED TO USE. NO STYLE THERE AT ALL.
Good to know but everything you showed looked the same….. nothing different btwn brands…
only your opinion and not true
FLP bags are so ugly. The rest are beautiful
