"I wOre tHis in New York City + I waS cRouChinG in FrOnt of A reStaurant". -The most narcissistic, unnecessary and irrelevant sentence I've heard in a while. James Charles is insufferable. Love you and your lack of patience for this malarkey Luke ♡
I'm just going to say, I'm more impressed with someone's style if they can take a statement piece and restyle it many different times than the whole only-wear-things-once "fashion" people
yes!! I've been buying my clothes at thrift stores for years and I've definitely had people assume I have/spend a lot of money because I love thrifting vintage clothing.
My family has bought most of its' clothes from thrift stores since I was young and I just love it. Sure we could afford normal stores but it really isn't as fun! It's great when you find clothing and pieces that haven't been in stores for years or that come from indie/smaller brands or even $$$ brands and it all looks new and is different from what everybody else is wearing. I like that my clothes are "unique" as in if someone asks me "ooh where did you get that?!" I get to answer "I found it from a thrift store". I kid you not, in high school my friends eventually stopped asking me where I got my clothes and what I paid for them because the answer was almost the same every time. Sure I have clothing bought from regular stores and few new $$$ pieces, but those I have either gotten as gifts or bought with saved up money. And thrifting has saved me a lot of money over the years🤩.
Honestly, it's like none of these people even seem to have their own personal style, they just buy whatever some designer tells them they should I guess.
My biggest issue with this closet tour is that you can tell he doesn't respect the pieces inside. I got the impression that he doesn't like clothes, shoes or bags. He likes the clout the name brands give him. I completely understand people who just want to throw on a pair of sweats and see their clothes as utilitarian. What I don't understand is why anyone would buy meticulously designed garments if they don't care about them and are going to just swap them with whatever is trendy next. I got angry When he mocked the people who try to take special care of their expensive shoes, while trying to crease the DiorXNike Sneakers. His whole video lacked class.
I think it's fine to want to take care of your expensive shoes, but I also think it's fine to do what you want with them, including folding them or whatever. I don't think you have an obligation to treat them in any particular way. They're yours, you bought them, you can decide what to do from there. It's when your actions actually affect anyone else that I think the obligation starts.
I dislike how it’s clear he does not care about them, overall. Not just monetary value,he does not care, he just follows the newest fashion trends to get clout and that’s it. No personality whatsoever and for someone that is in the beauty industry, to be wearing sweats... Beauty is pain and I am sorry, but if you are wearing make up like that ans sweats, you lose all credibility.
I mean if you wanted to steal more than one piece it would take a lot of time. But one piece is enough to pay rent for a months/years soooo doesn't matter much I guess
“If I post an instagram photo or a TH-cam video I can’t wear it again.” Princess Diana, the QUEEN of class, wore outfits over and over again, regardless of how many times she’d been seen in public or private wearing it. Take that for what you will…
something about him throwing his expensive designer Birkin on the FLOOR really rubbed me the wrong way...especially considering it's $20,000. i was taught to respect my items, no matter how much money you have or how expensive it is.
Same, I have leather purses that are much cheaper then that and I clean and condition them at least twice a year and make sure they rarely sit on the floor unless its super clean. I would never drop it on the floor like that on purpose :(
That really made me cringe. The whole tour was looking for validation - I have a Birkin! But I don’t love it! I’ll drop it if you want me to! Super pick me energy.
The reason it rubs me the wrong way is he is being disrespectful to it on purpose like a joke "haha I'm so rich I throw what would be others college tuition on the floor" I think I remember Jeffree doing the same thing. It's like they think it's funny to be disrespectful and flaunt their wealth. So obnoxious.
Ot doesn't matter how he uses his things, they are his to use how he like, but just the fact that he showcases his attitude towards those things is what irks me. He seems to me as person who will treat other people as he does that Birkin
I don't comment on things often, but I'm consistently impressed with the amount of work that Luke puts into all of his videos. The historical context, the additional information about house codes and design choices, being able to reference previous works (both fashion and non-fashion items)...James Charles wasn't worth your time, but I appreciate your reaction nonetheless. I have a renewed sense of appreciation for all things fashion and history when I watch a HauteLeMode video, so thank you for that! Hardest working content creator and educator out here!
I get the sense that James doesn't appreciate fashion, he just looks at it as fun possessions to buy and show off. And I'm not saying you need to have a degree in design to have nice things, but like this man just threw my college tuition on the floor.
What makes me crazy is that the “can’t wear the same thing twice” rule isn’t even something people admire anymore. Everyone is so conscious nowadays of fast fashion and its impact on the planet so it looks horrible to be wasting clothes like this. But our celebrity landscape is based on hate and controversy not respect anymore so in a fucked up way he’s doing it right and just… UGH.
Yes! I don't know how james thought he would get away with that so easily when you can throw a rock out the door an hit someone talking about sustainability in fashion. Thinking like that doesn't make him seem chic or unique, he just sounds out of touch 😬
James Charles has always had the tackiest, boring, unflattering wardrobe. His clothing is just so pointlessly revealing that attempts to be "shocking" but it's just bland and tasteless androgyny.
but like it’s hardly even androgyny. 😭 it’s either glam dude in tacky, revealing outfits (or sweats lol) or full drag. i’ve never seen him do an in between. :( he’s so boring lol
True. However, I want to know the sweat suit brand because they look like a nice heavy fabric, which is hard to find anymore because companies are using cheap flimsy fabrics to cut costs.
You never raised your voice much above a whisper and this was one of the deepest burns I've ever seen on someone. This video slayed me. I agree, I love a fashion collection cultivated over time more than this anxious materialistic performance.
As clearly over this "tour" as Luke clearly was, I always appreciate the little tidbits of info and bits of history that he has for us about fashion. Like, the reason behind those tabi-style boots being painted. Honestly so interesting.
Day 2 of slowly making it out the hood: i ate burger king inside target high asfc & i smokë weed on my TH-cam channel as my job ☄️ til im out the trenches 🦅
He sounds like this is the only thing in his mind and is doing this to impress who? People like this, no matter how expensive their wardrobe is, turn me off.
I respect Luke's side-eye game being strong enough to fuel three high school proms and a medium-sized sewing circle. Throw in the energy level being on par with knowing you have to go to the DMV after a root canal...
James Charles: "I don't understand how sneakerheads buy expensive sneakers and keep them in a box" Also James Charles: "I go through my closet every 3 months and get rid of everything I've worn more than twice"
The way he is wearing that hoodie to obviously try to be a “cool and edgy fashionista” bc he’s doing a closet tour is INSPIRING ACTUAL RAGE WOTHIN ME. He is the definition of “I’m not like other girls”
Do you not think the creator of this video is the definition of “I’m not like other girls though”? It’s giving I’m better than you because I appreciate fashion more. And what? James brings really good energy and if he’s lacking in the fashion department so be it. This clown who posted this video is giving judgmental boomer vibes.
James charles is literally that girl who buys everything instagram recommends and then quotes it back at you as if “didn’t you see my new post?” no girl we don’t care it’s already irrelevant. SHE HAS NO STYLE!
I feel like neither the shes nor the hes want to claim him. None of the pronouns apply. Maybe we just refer to him as this/thing so as not to offend anyone.
@@JutaStokes honestly I hope he has them sewn in now that people know about them because even tho I don't like him I don't want some of those pieces to fall into the wrong hands. Actually maybe they would be better off not with James look at what he did to that birkin
I literally still have a few pieces that I scored from TJMaxx in MIDDLE SCHOOL! I’m fuming at his wasteful approach to clothing, I mean he was problem bc of other things but this too?! How icky can one person be?! 😡🤢
I recently decided to actually put effort in my looks since I love clothes but felt self-conscious about being overdressed. But with that I saw that many of my friends who frequently bought clothes just had too many they didn't use and would resell their "old" clothes all the time. And I was just like "wait should I do that? Theses clothes still fit me, I still like them and they're perfectly wearable. But should I just resell them so I could buy new ones?" When you call yourself a "fashion lover" there's such a pressure to renew your closet it's insane
@@jackyyrag 😅 I was 5’10” by 6th grade & stopped growing (thank god) I was like “well I’m getting stared at bc I’m a foot taller than everyone, might as well give ‘em some fashion!” 🤣
Ok I can explain the sweatshirt "thing". In the 90's-early 2000's us Black folks & some Hip-Hop artists wore our shirts like this. In high school I remember my boyfriend always doing this, dudes playin pick up games etc. So it's another thing copied to look "cool" when you just end up looking ridiculous. Great video btw❣️
The utter disdain seeping out of every pore on Luke’s body before the tour even began…I thought it couldn’t get any worse but the longer the video went on, the more I felt like we were going to witness him spontaneously combust. This was a true sacrifice you made, Luke. I’m glad I at least learned some interesting fashion tidbits in between James Charles’ frenzied babbling.
If there was one word I would use to describe James Charles’s style it would be TACKY. It’s interesting how all these popular TH-cam influencers have stylists, yet some of them have the worst style 🙃💯
Money can't buy you style. He went from wearing Balenciaga track suits every day to sweatshirts and pants every day. I would pay big money to see you personally give him a makeover and elevate his style.
This was a beautiful disaster. I am not a James Charles fan and I just loved Luke's comments and reactions the whole time. It made me laugh so much because James Charles thinks he is still relevant and Luke is basically everyone. So great and funny.
The entire time I imagined both of them being sat next to each other at a dinner table and James asking: "Oh, so you are into fashion too?" I would seriously pay to watch that unfold. Hahaha
He’s just gross. His entire worldview is about how stuff pertains to getting him attention. J doesn’t care about the history or make of items, doesn’t care about genuinely taking care of them, can’t be bothered to get the pronunciation right for one of his “favorite brands”, and there’s no... heart. Trisha Paytas is very superficial but her closet was basically a love story about pop culture. This was just a mishmash of stuff that cost a lot of money.
The double bag trend of the early 2010s does not seed a resurgence. If I see a mini fendi bag hanging on a bigger fendi bag I’m throwing James in a tree.
I have zero fashion sense/style but I love your videos bc of the depth of history and context you bring to the pieces and brands and collections shown. From the runway to these closet tours-I always learn a little and love it!
The whole video is like “here’s my closet, let me tell you about me and how “iconic” i am”. 😂😂 as a fashion lover I am genuinely confused how someone can have no personal style and have a closet full of social media outfits. 😂😂😂 like what even was this??? Anyways love you though, your videos are always the best, i respect you for getting through it.
"You can only wear something once" is unsustainable nonsense. Wear your clothes until they're falling apart or sell them so they don't just end up in a landfill. The hyperconsumerism oozes from James' pores and it's, frankly, fucking gross.
Absolutely. I will never throw away a piece of clothing unless it's beyond saving and even then I might turn it into a rag or eyeglasses cleaning cloth
O my god you pronounced van gogh almost perfectly. You got the g sound at the end. I dont think i’ve ever heard that from an english speaker. Wel done Im gonna watch the rest of the video now
Regarding his 'clearing out every 3 months': I wonder how you run through clothing like that and don't get attached to pieces. If you love fashion, surely you buy pieces for a reason, and then how do you just... get rid of them? I have statement pieces that I adore because they're garish and unique and I love the challenge of restyling them, rewearing is part of the joy! And then I have 'basics' that I love and wear to death because maybe its just a simple black long sleeve undershirt, but that simple black long sleeve is the softest, most comfortable, perfect universal piece that fits my weird short arms and has a neckline that I really like, etc. I'm trying to imagine how you can love fashion and not have a connection to your clothes.
Lol watching you barely hold it together was the best. I think your eyes fully rolled back into your head at one stage. Keep it up. Sitting here in New Zealand on my back porch in the sun wondering why as a 60 year old woman I am amused by all of this. Love your work!
Honestly, I’m just rlly gagged that *this* was the closet reveal. Like baby girl u have too much money to be only buying popular luxury fashion items,,, and cycling out ur closet every month with fast fashion… Like how was he not embarazzed to click upload on this video????
Watching him throw someone's whole tuition on the floor is so upsetting. If you're 'not really a Birkin girl' maybe there are better things to do with your money then? I know he earned it and he can do whatever but the inequality just hurts my soul 😭
Full disclosure: I'm wealthy. James Charles would probably kill to have my access to designer clothes, but even I find his spending habits embarrassing and self-involved. 99 out of 100 times, the more clothes someone buys and quickly cycles through, the least fashionable they are. Real style is taking a small, good quality wardrobe and being able to use different combinations and accessories to create any look you want. A zillion different pieces isn't a sense of style, it's indecision and wastefulness. Just because you can afford it doesn't mean you should buy it or support extravagant disregard. When you know yourself and your personal style, selectiveness beats excessiveness every time.
@@egyptmachine That it shows how insecure he is and that he feels he needs to display his wealth to impress others. I own several Birkins myself, so I'm not against the purchase of them. But I also recognize that the material itself is valuable and in that regard alone, damaging one is wasteful because we should at least try to keep the least amount of leathers and whatnot in circulation. It's also incredibly disrespectful to the hours of craftsmanship it takes to make each bag. That is someone else's hard work. If you want people to respect your work, respect theirs. And from a purely financial standpoint, Birkins are a great buy because they appreciate well, unlike most designer bags. I have a special closet I keep the most expensive things I own. If I were to resell any of my Birkins, even the ones I've had for nearly two decades would be marked as the best possible used condition, contain everything from the dust bags to the original receipts and bags they were bought in, etc. So basically.... I think it's incredibly idiotic to risk damaging it which in turn would hurt the resale value and disgustingly disrespectful to what goes in to making the bag itself.
I’m a mom of three young girls. On particularly hard days, when my husband gets home, I lock myself in my bedroom and binge Hautelemode. Thank you Luke. You are my escape.
One of the reasons why I absolutely love Hailey Bieber and Virgil Abloh's style is that I can take inspiration from them and use the same clothes in so many styles. Timeless fashion is absolutely amazing.
OY. This was even worse than I expected. Who actually gets so excited about having that many sweatsuits? And only wearing something once? The clothes were bad, the bags were bad, and the shoes were bad (I really don’t get the Nike collaborations with big name fashion brands - I know there’s the status and collector aspect, but are they actually that much better quality than regular Nikes considering the price?). Also, James seems totally unaware about the CEO of New Balance being a big Trump supporter and contributed. You know, someone committed to taking away LGBTQIA-2S rights. Blech. I was so happy when the tour was over. Luke’s expressions said it all.
Someone's PERSONAL opinions, beliefs and views has nothing to do with the quality of a brand or the product. Look at Chanel! People still buy it because they love it. Not everything is that black and white, buddy! It's highly juvenile to not allow yourself to buy something because of a PERSONAL view someone from the brand holds. Why don't people boycott animal testing more?! That's a REAL cause that actually makes SENSE
@@eveningstar8581 It isn’t at all juvenile to spend your money in a manner that supports your own moral and ethical values. No merchant is entitled to my money.
@@eveningstar8581 it’s more than the head of New Balance’s personal views - in this case, he’s contributed directly to Trump’s campaign and other very conservative endeavors with earnings from, say, his company. Thus, NB consumers’ money is supporting those endeavors. I was pointing out the irony of what James Charles stands for and what he’s purchased. It’s just my opinion and nobody else needs to share it. Also, there’s no reason to YELL and I’m definitely not your buddy.
I'm watching this over again, because I love Luke's facial expressions, but one can't help but wonder.........WHY? Let's gather some taste in the gathered fabric of your damn sweat sets, James.
... literally every person I know (that's a milenial or gen z) knows what air forces look like, even people that could not care less about fashion can name them. How tf does he not know what the name of that model is??
As a French I love when foreigners try to pronounce French brand names, as long as you do the effort to try the correct pronunciation I won't judge if it's perfect or not But the jacquemoo got me like 😂
I have never been able to understand him. I don't intend that as making fun of how he speaks. I just literally can make out what he's saying. Too fast? Jumbled? IDK
The jumper, I can’t…. This closet tour screams “I think I’m fashion forward but in actual fact I don’t really know what that means and can’t be bothered to research the answer” I think we all had the same facial expression as Luke while watching…. Don’t even start me on dropping 20k bag like a play toy whist stating it’s in the collection / valuable closet. Congratulations on actually sitting through this Luke with commentary. I’m here for the low key sass!!
Something about purposefully damaging and dropping and being careless with expensive luxury items in your mansion closet full of clothes you wore once feels incredibly dystopian
Almost every piece he mentioned , he only talked about what video/Instagram post he wore it in. He only cares about social media clout, the pieces mean nothing more to him. Money is truly wasted on the rich.
You know what actually is stylish? SUSTAINABILITY. Rewear and reuse, buy secondhand, and support ethical brands. It boils my blood to see the wastefulness and complete thoughtlessness of rich people when we are experiencing a major climate crisis.
most rich people are tone deaf and selfish , a lot of people are selfish. that’s why things are gonna get worse and worse cuz people don’t care about the world they live in sadly. and that’s y I don’t idolize influencers and celebrities.
@@yugen8195and then they act all surprised when the weather is getting worse and worse, when there's more and more natural dissasters happening, when there's more and more diseases emerging...
Imagine how tone deaf you have to be in this economy to throw your birkin on the floor and act so nonchalant with a 20,000$ bag... I hope karma gets him
There's only one thing I thought of when reading the title: Get her, Jade *malicious smile* PS: I love that Luke's library is constantly expanding, we love a literate icon
😁😁😁 I read this comment and rewound back to the beginning to see if I could make out James' rolls because that line cannot be said without acknowledging some backrolls
Many other influencers in his age group are pulling really great outfits like Bretman Rock and Ricky Thompson, but he's still stuck in that brand name and hype beast era
aaahhhh i'm going insane "i'm just not a birkin girl" then WHY. did. you. BUY ONE. mr charles???? were you not aware that it's an option to simply not buy a birkin??? was someone holding a gun to your head??? blackmailing you?? using your family as hostages?? those crocodile babies are dead now because of you james anyway great video. i empathized with all of your facial expressions throughout

Hey Luke, a question. Why would you put this guy on your channel? He is a disgusting person. You should not give him the time of your day.

Hello there chris
Ok king
to be fair u dont dress any better than james.
Lol I love the hypocrisy. It makes it more fun for me though.
I'm just going to say, I'm more impressed with someone's style if they can take a statement piece and restyle it many different times than the whole only-wear-things-once "fashion" people
THIS!
Exactly!
THAT PART
Exactly, that’s where the real creativity is
Exactly why is that even a thing anymore. You'd get far more respect restyling/upcycling items instead of this fast-fashion attitude.
Let’s say it together everyone!!!
Money doesn’t buy style!! And brands doesn’t mean fashion!!
yes!! I've been buying my clothes at thrift stores for years and I've definitely had people assume I have/spend a lot of money because I love thrifting vintage clothing.
Money can't buy you class!! 😛🎶🎶

I feel like AbFab said this years ago and a lot of people missed the lesson!
I love that James can’t rewear outfits because he’s an influencer but Kate Middleton, an actual princess, is beloved for repeating outfits
Also Angelina Jolie... She had her daughters rewear her gowns.. Which is really amazing
kate middleton isn't a princess, she's a duchess.
Duchess

I think it's fine to want to take care of your expensive shoes, but I also think it's fine to do what you want with them, including folding them or whatever. I don't think you have an obligation to treat them in any particular way. They're yours, you bought them, you can decide what to do from there. It's when your actions actually affect anyone else that I think the obligation starts.
You know he just has this stuff and made a closet tour video to try to flex on people.
The shoe creasing triggered a primordial rage inside of me. As someone who would love to own a cool pair of shoes, im upset.

I don’t think i’ve ever seen Luke more genuinely annoyed than he was in this video 😂
Ikr, he made a huge sacrifice for us xd
Haha same 😭😭
Fr
I’m actually loving how extra annoyed and b**chey he is in this video 😂
yes he is soooooooo unimpressed
Honestly the total ignorance of James Charles just proudly stating how he literally wastes clothes by wearing them only a couple of times...
Commented exactly this on his video… horrible attitude!
God I hope he donates the ones he’s done with
Or wear them as pj, make blankets out them or literally anything that is not just throwing them in a dumpster
great comment, fast fashion and only wearing things on trend are such a problem. So much clothing end in land fill.
Isn’t that what all celebrities do….
Luke looks like every second of this tour is draining every single speck of life out of him
Haha that’s exactly what I felt, ahh glad he did this reaction vid but hope it doesn’t leave him with lasting nightmares;)
it would drain the life out of me too
James's energy is truly draining, the constant fast talking is exhausting for any life form.
On behalf of criminals everywhere, thank you James, when someone comes to steal your bags they will know to remove the air tags hahaha
I was just thinking that, how easy do you think it would be for someone to just remove the air tag and just chuck it in a trash can somewhere?
@@peggedyourdad9560 I was thinking the same thing.
I mean if you wanted to steal more than one piece it would take a lot of time. But one piece is enough to pay rent for a months/years soooo doesn't matter much I guess
“If I post an instagram photo or a TH-cam video I can’t wear it again.”
Princess Diana, the QUEEN of class, wore outfits over and over again, regardless of how many times she’d been seen in public or private wearing it.
Take that for what you will…
That's because Lady Di had sophistication and class. Something that clown Charles can't and will never have!
putting up with James Charles for 20 minutes straight just shows how much I adore your videos Luke, I couldn’t do it for anyone but you 🤦♀️
Exactly what I was thinking!
This is the comment ! Every word you said lmao
FACTS!
Because you know he’s gonna make it about the fashion, but he WILL throw the shade we’re all dying for
I pressed the like button but I didn't actually like what I saw, not because of Luke but I just really dislike JC 🤣
something about him throwing his expensive designer Birkin on the FLOOR really rubbed me the wrong way...especially considering it's $20,000. i was taught to respect my items, no matter how much money you have or how expensive it is.
Same, I have leather purses that are much cheaper then that and I clean and condition them at least twice a year and make sure they rarely sit on the floor unless its super clean. I would never drop it on the floor like that on purpose :(

seriously. like. if you don’t like the bag, don’t keep it??? he literally only has it because it costs as much as a decent car.
I don't comment on things often, but I'm consistently impressed with the amount of work that Luke puts into all of his videos. The historical context, the additional information about house codes and design choices, being able to reference previous works (both fashion and non-fashion items)...James Charles wasn't worth your time, but I appreciate your reaction nonetheless.

Agreed!
Well said!
Facts
Luke is the most educated fashion commentator I've ever seen, it's UNBELIEVABLE.
I get the sense that James doesn't appreciate fashion, he just looks at it as fun possessions to buy and show off. And I'm not saying you need to have a degree in design to have nice things, but like this man just threw my college tuition on the floor.
Good fashion sense has nothing to do with money.

It's basically the same thing as catching someone throw their garbage on the ground instead of putting in the bin. It's irritating AF.
James Charles has always had the tackiest, boring, unflattering wardrobe. His clothing is just so pointlessly revealing that attempts to be "shocking" but it's just bland and tasteless androgyny.
There’s no true artistic perspective, it’s just ew
Underwhelming for sure
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 cackling
but like it’s hardly even androgyny. 😭 it’s either glam dude in tacky, revealing outfits (or sweats lol) or full drag. i’ve never seen him do an in between. :( he’s so boring lol
True. However, I want to know the sweat suit brand because they look like a nice heavy fabric, which is hard to find anymore because companies are using cheap flimsy fabrics to cut costs.
You never raised your voice much above a whisper and this was one of the deepest burns I've ever seen on someone. This video slayed me. I agree, I love a fashion collection cultivated over time more than this anxious materialistic performance.
nail on the head with the “anxious materialistic performance”
It’s like how Meryl never raised her voice in Devil Wears Prada
"T-shirt and shorts for summer? Groundbreaking."
The fact that he didn't raise his voice showed just how UTTERLY OVER THIS he was. I love Luke!
Meanwhile James Charles is shouting from his echoing closet
As clearly over this "tour" as Luke clearly was, I always appreciate the little tidbits of info and bits of history that he has for us about fashion. Like, the reason behind those tabi-style boots being painted. Honestly so interesting.
Bad life choices, bad attitude, bad fashion sense, that's James Charles
All manifesting into bad skin.
💀💀
@@b.mcknight8686 absolutely 🤣🤣
Yup
Day 2 of slowly making it out the hood: i ate burger king inside target high asfc & i smokë weed on my TH-cam channel as my job ☄️ til im out the trenches 🦅
James Charles is proof of how money really CANNOT buy you style. Or a personality
He sounds like this is the only thing in his mind and is doing this to impress who? People like this, no matter how expensive their wardrobe is, turn me off.
I respect Luke's side-eye game being strong enough to fuel three high school proms and a medium-sized sewing circle. Throw in the energy level being on par with knowing you have to go to the DMV after a root canal...
I love how specific this comment is and how well it describes the entire vibe of this video 😆
@@TheGrumpyAngelPR Aw, thanks! Small town life is learning to side eye, especially when the quilt show is passing through.
this fuels me, thank you for articulating it
James Charles: "I don't understand how sneakerheads buy expensive sneakers and keep them in a box"
Also James Charles: "I go through my closet every 3 months and get rid of everything I've worn more than twice"
The way he is wearing that hoodie to obviously try to be a “cool and edgy fashionista” bc he’s doing a closet tour is INSPIRING ACTUAL RAGE WOTHIN ME. He is the definition of “I’m not like other girls”
Mabye only half of him was cold🤷♀️🤭
Do you not think the creator of this video is the definition of “I’m not like other girls though”? It’s giving I’m better than you because I appreciate fashion more. And what? James brings really good energy and if he’s lacking in the fashion department so be it. This clown who posted this video is giving judgmental boomer vibes.
@@harleymuhameti6697 I wouldn’t be caught dead defending a pedophile but you do you ig.
James charles is literally that girl who buys everything instagram recommends and then quotes it back at you as if “didn’t you see my new post?” no girl we don’t care it’s already irrelevant. SHE HAS NO STYLE!
I was just thinking this😭 he comes across as the type that wears anything that is trendy rather than having a individual personal style
I feel like neither the shes nor the hes want to claim him. None of the pronouns apply. Maybe we just refer to him as this/thing so as not to offend anyone.
@@jeffbiddle1956 I think we all can agree on this/thing! 👾
@@jeffbiddle1956 well this got me to cackle
He isn’t a she
How nice of him to tell prospective burglars to remove the air tags...
My first thought was that any sensible burglar would immediately check for air tags. It's not like they're sewn into the lining or anything.
@@JutaStokes I have been thinking the same thing
@@JutaStokes honestly I hope he has them sewn in now that people know about them because even tho I don't like him I don't want some of those pieces to fall into the wrong hands. Actually maybe they would be better off not with James look at what he did to that birkin
I literally still have a few pieces that I scored from TJMaxx in MIDDLE SCHOOL! I’m fuming at his wasteful approach to clothing, I mean he was problem bc of other things but this too?! How icky can one person be?! 😡🤢
I recently decided to actually put effort in my looks since I love clothes but felt self-conscious about being overdressed. But with that I saw that many of my friends who frequently bought clothes just had too many they didn't use and would resell their "old" clothes all the time. And I was just like "wait should I do that? Theses clothes still fit me, I still like them and they're perfectly wearable. But should I just resell them so I could buy new ones?" When you call yourself a "fashion lover" there's such a pressure to renew your closet it's insane
@@MariaLoozer YES! Definitely need to change the narrative of being a “fashion lover” from over consumption to life long iconic pieces!
That's impressive! I definitely don't fit anything i owned in middle school 😂
@@jackyyrag 😅 I was 5’10” by 6th grade & stopped growing (thank god) I was like “well I’m getting stared at bc I’m a foot taller than everyone, might as well give ‘em some fashion!” 🤣
@@paulinesvlogs i also stopped growing in middle school! Unfortunately i stopped at 5'2" 😂
Ok I can explain the sweatshirt "thing". In the 90's-early 2000's us Black folks & some Hip-Hop artists wore our shirts like this. In high school I remember my boyfriend always doing this, dudes playin pick up games etc. So it's another thing copied to look "cool" when you just end up looking ridiculous. Great video btw❣️
Luke's look of sheer despair never ceases to amuse
"I think I am bored of life, but this is not helping" is my mood nowadays... Courage Luke!!
❤🔥❤
Also I can not get over how James apparently thinks not putting his arm through one sleeve of a hoodie is cute.
Mabye he has a sun burn and it's at the point were it is hot and cold at the same time.
😂😂😂😂😂
It could've been cool if he cut one sleeve for an off-centered look🤷🏽♀️
There’s nothing organic about his closet-, literally every TH-cam person, influencer whatever you want to* call them, has the same look.
But but but he wore the sweater different... Iconic some (or only one) would say.
"I loooove wearing sweatpants haha I love comfort ya know ??"
Yea he seems so lost
The utter disdain seeping out of every pore on Luke’s body before the tour even began…I thought it couldn’t get any worse but the longer the video went on, the more I felt like we were going to witness him spontaneously combust. This was a true sacrifice you made, Luke. I’m glad I at least learned some interesting fashion tidbits in between James Charles’ frenzied babbling.
Never really seen a lot of Luke’s vids but I’ve never seem him this disinterested lmao he’s representing all of us rn
If there was one word I would use to describe James Charles’s style it would be TACKY. It’s interesting how all these popular TH-cam influencers have stylists, yet some of them have the worst style 🙃💯
TACKY TACKY TACKY! It's beyond gross. I had honestly completely forgotten about him til now. We all deserve better than James Charles.
Well, there's also stylists with a tacky style. Fitting to im.👀
I don't understand how anyone would need a stylist to dress like James Charles.
That's not fair, the word TACKY has more style than him 😆😅
@@Holbol124 omg??
He's running away from good taste so fast he didn't even have time to put the sweatshirt on properly.
also, that birkin is 100% not a 35! LOL!!!
He’s what now? 🤣 apparently he is running SO fast!
Thank you! I was like: "are my eyes deceiving me?" He literally has no idea what he owns, someone else chose it and styled it for him.
Omg, right?! I immediately thought, “how big/tall is James to make that 35 look like a 25?”
@@Elle0704 Ha, I thought exactly the same thing!
Money can't buy you style. He went from wearing Balenciaga track suits every day to sweatshirts and pants every day. I would pay big money to see you personally give him a makeover and elevate his style.
@@laurac9453 exactly. I wouldn't want to submit Luke to being near James
Money can’t buy taste!
he doesnt even own a pair of jeans!!
James has the style “sense” that he deserves
he doesn’t need his style elevated , he needs to be in jail for talking to minors , but that’s a whole other conversation ig.
Him saying 'rare items' while opening the most underwhelming looking Ikea ass cabinet I can't-
The fact that James Charles has still a platform is a tragedy itself. The bad style just ads to it.
Even Jeffree Star could talk more about his clothes, history, collections... James just don't care and use it as a gadet in YT films...
I honestly feel like Jeffree really does have interest and knowledge into fashion and brands.
This was a beautiful disaster. I am not a James Charles fan and I just loved Luke's comments and reactions the whole time. It made me laugh so much because James Charles thinks he is still relevant and Luke is basically everyone. So great and funny.
The entire time I imagined both of them being sat next to each other at a dinner table and James asking: "Oh, so you are into fashion too?"
I would seriously pay to watch that unfold. Hahaha
@@memento81 Righttt LOLLL
@@memento81 that's a nice burger meat burn.
I don't understand how he has any credibility for makeup when he looks like a shiny tomato here.
@@memento81 wauw this would be something i’d pay to see
“Idk if I have fatigue from life or if this is just boring me” no, I think this tour is just boring😭
Bahahaha 🤣
nothing like being shouted at about sweatshirts for 20 minutes... would drain the life out of me too lmaooo
3.42 minutes in and Im DYING 😅😂😂
Your face and TONE this whole video. MADE MY DAY!! 👏 👏
thanks for doing this despite how painful it was.. hahahaha
He’s just gross. His entire worldview is about how stuff pertains to getting him attention. J doesn’t care about the history or make of items, doesn’t care about genuinely taking care of them, can’t be bothered to get the pronunciation right for one of his “favorite brands”, and there’s no... heart.
Trisha Paytas is very superficial but her closet was basically a love story about pop culture. This was just a mishmash of stuff that cost a lot of money.
Honestly living, laughing and loving Luke's facial expressions.
All that shade with just facial expressions. I thought he showed remarkable restraint, god knows I wouldn’t have been able to keep it together.
@@scorpiomoon2535 it was the whispering for me …
The double bag trend of the early 2010s does not seed a resurgence. If I see a mini fendi bag hanging on a bigger fendi bag I’m throwing James in a tree.
I have zero fashion sense/style but I love your videos bc of the depth of history and context you bring to the pieces and brands and collections shown. From the runway to these closet tours-I always learn a little and love it!
I'm sure you have some fashion sense if you're here lol
You deserve a standing ovation for this 👏🏼 I’m not a fan of James Charles, to say the least, so this was very well received 😂
The whole video is like “here’s my closet, let me tell you about me and how “iconic” i am”. 😂😂 as a fashion lover I am genuinely confused how someone can have no personal style and have a closet full of social media outfits. 😂😂😂 like what even was this??? Anyways love you though, your videos are always the best, i respect you for getting through it.
I love how „done” Luke is with James but just remains chill. I couldn’t.
Haha 😭
So if I steal james Charles’ bags, I just need to throw out the Air tag, right?
Lmao yup
He even showed you wear it was
"You can only wear something once" is unsustainable nonsense. Wear your clothes until they're falling apart or sell them so they don't just end up in a landfill. The hyperconsumerism oozes from James' pores and it's, frankly, fucking gross.
Also literally no one cares if he repeats an outfit so his logic even further doesn’t make sense
He wears his face everyday, he should also change it everyday.
Absolutely. I will never throw away a piece of clothing unless it's beyond saving and even then I might turn it into a rag or eyeglasses cleaning cloth
Don't even sell them because once they are I sold, they usually DO end up in landfill. Better to buy less. Simple.
What is with his skin texture and color?
O my god you pronounced van gogh almost perfectly. You got the g sound at the end. I dont think i’ve ever heard that from an english speaker. Wel done
Im gonna watch the rest of the video now
I wish I knew half as much about fashion and fashion history as you do! I would take the class. Love the channel and your analysis.
Luke's eyerolling gives me so much life on this rainy Friday. Bless you and your mastery of sardonic observations.
Omg, Luke’s face is everything 😂
He says so much with those pretty, full eyebrows.
He is sending me!!!!! 😂😂😂
I am utterly and completely IN LOVE with your bookshelves
Same! I’m love to browse them…
we need a bookshelf tour tbh!
Regarding his 'clearing out every 3 months': I wonder how you run through clothing like that and don't get attached to pieces. If you love fashion, surely you buy pieces for a reason, and then how do you just... get rid of them? I have statement pieces that I adore because they're garish and unique and I love the challenge of restyling them, rewearing is part of the joy! And then I have 'basics' that I love and wear to death because maybe its just a simple black long sleeve undershirt, but that simple black long sleeve is the softest, most comfortable, perfect universal piece that fits my weird short arms and has a neckline that I really like, etc. I'm trying to imagine how you can love fashion and not have a connection to your clothes.
Yess, I strongly agree~
He literally has no style. No thought put into what he wears, he's just doing what masses are liking on instagram. It's kinda sad.
Exactly my thoughts. Poor thing.
Luke is giving full feline energy throughout this reaction and I am here for it
It was like a cat realizing their human brought a stupid dog home and it's staying forever 😂
Lol watching you barely hold it together was the best. I think your eyes fully rolled back into your head at one stage. Keep it up. Sitting here in New Zealand on my back porch in the sun wondering why as a 60 year old woman I am amused by all of this. Love your work!
Honestly, I’m just rlly gagged that *this* was the closet reveal. Like baby girl u have too much money to be only buying popular luxury fashion items,,, and cycling out ur closet every month with fast fashion… Like how was he not embarazzed to click upload on this video????
I’ve never enjoyed watching someone else be bored for 20 minutes straight more😌 the sarcastic comments made it worth it
Watching him throw someone's whole tuition on the floor is so upsetting. If you're 'not really a Birkin girl' maybe there are better things to do with your money then? I know he earned it and he can do whatever but the inequality just hurts my soul 😭
You could literally see this closet tour sucking the life out of you. Proof that James Charles is an energy vampire.
If Kate Middleton can wear an outfit over an over again I am sure any TH-camr can as well. *roll eyes*
Full disclosure: I'm wealthy. James Charles would probably kill to have my access to designer clothes, but even I find his spending habits embarrassing and self-involved. 99 out of 100 times, the more clothes someone buys and quickly cycles through, the least fashionable they are. Real style is taking a small, good quality wardrobe and being able to use different combinations and accessories to create any look you want. A zillion different pieces isn't a sense of style, it's indecision and wastefulness. Just because you can afford it doesn't mean you should buy it or support extravagant disregard. When you know yourself and your personal style, selectiveness beats excessiveness every time.
What’s your opinion on his dropping of the Hermés bag?
@@egyptmachine That it shows how insecure he is and that he feels he needs to display his wealth to impress others. I own several Birkins myself, so I'm not against the purchase of them. But I also recognize that the material itself is valuable and in that regard alone, damaging one is wasteful because we should at least try to keep the least amount of leathers and whatnot in circulation. It's also incredibly disrespectful to the hours of craftsmanship it takes to make each bag. That is someone else's hard work. If you want people to respect your work, respect theirs. And from a purely financial standpoint, Birkins are a great buy because they appreciate well, unlike most designer bags. I have a special closet I keep the most expensive things I own. If I were to resell any of my Birkins, even the ones I've had for nearly two decades would be marked as the best possible used condition, contain everything from the dust bags to the original receipts and bags they were bought in, etc.
So basically.... I think it's incredibly idiotic to risk damaging it which in turn would hurt the resale value and disgustingly disrespectful to what goes in to making the bag itself.
@@killbethy well said, agreed. It’s very clear in other ways too how he acts and in his short past how insecure he is.
Can I ask how you came into wealth? Sorry if that's crossing any boundaries.
I gen love your take- gives off old money vibes, love that for you /g
I’m a mom of three young girls. On particularly hard days, when my husband gets home, I lock myself in my bedroom and binge Hautelemode. Thank you Luke. You are my escape.
SAME!!! Such an escape
I do too! But I do it in the bathroom lol! I do my nighttime skincare routine and escape! Sigh...it's glorious!
that sounds like a pretty sad life
Same.
I’m here for Luke pursuing his lips everytime a peep comes out of James mouth 😂😂😂
One of the reasons why I absolutely love Hailey Bieber and Virgil Abloh's style is that I can take inspiration from them and use the same clothes in so many styles. Timeless fashion is absolutely amazing.
OY. This was even worse than I expected. Who actually gets so excited about having that many sweatsuits? And only wearing something once? The clothes were bad, the bags were bad, and the shoes were bad (I really don’t get the Nike collaborations with big name fashion brands - I know there’s the status and collector aspect, but are they actually that much better quality than regular Nikes considering the price?). Also, James seems totally unaware about the CEO of New Balance being a big Trump supporter and contributed. You know, someone committed to taking away LGBTQIA-2S rights. Blech. I was so happy when the tour was over. Luke’s expressions said it all.
Someone's PERSONAL opinions, beliefs and views has nothing to do with the quality of a brand or the product. Look at Chanel! People still buy it because they love it. Not everything is that black and white, buddy! It's highly juvenile to not allow yourself to buy something because of a PERSONAL view someone from the brand holds. Why don't people boycott animal testing more?! That's a REAL cause that actually makes SENSE
@@eveningstar8581 It isn’t at all juvenile to spend your money in a manner that supports your own moral and ethical values. No merchant is entitled to my money.
@@rouxtouxb the point I am making is how much people will overlook! Yet have a fit over a political scenario. Kind of stupid and juvenile.
@@eveningstar8581 it’s more than the head of New Balance’s personal views - in this case, he’s contributed directly to Trump’s campaign and other very conservative endeavors with earnings from, say, his company. Thus, NB consumers’ money is supporting those endeavors. I was pointing out the irony of what James Charles stands for and what he’s purchased. It’s just my opinion and nobody else needs to share it. Also, there’s no reason to YELL and I’m definitely not your buddy.
Exactly. Because he doesn't know shit about fashion. Embarrassing, honestly
And there was Gisele who did a 'What's in my Bag?' with a vintage Chanel that she's had for 15 years!
So James just told any potential thieves what to ditch out of his bags first.
Exactly what I was thinking!! Lol!!
I'm watching this over again, because I love Luke's facial expressions, but one can't help but wonder.........WHY? Let's gather some taste in the gathered fabric of your damn sweat sets, James.
Luke speaks with his eyes on this video😅 I got every single F***k horrible word from every blink😂😂😂😂
I can’t help but laugh out loud at your facial expressions. They seriously got me through the video lol
Wish we didn't give people like him a platform to begin with... Using his power to sway underage boys is not for me sister
I know, that's how I feel too 😬
Gurl that was so last year. Get over it
I love whenever you want to say something but instead just make a face 😂
James is the epitome of a young person with “New Money”. 🤷♀️
having your fav 7 bags be balenciaga didn't age well for him...but it makes sense lol
... literally every person I know (that's a milenial or gen z) knows what air forces look like, even people that could not care less about fashion can name them. How tf does he not know what the name of that model is??
... Im a gen z but i absolutely didn't know how air force look like up close. I only assumed that they look bulky lol
I have no idea what those are. Never even heard of them. I'm 31. But I also don't, y'know, own them.
I’m 26 and didn’t even know those shoes existed, let alone would be able to distinguish them from any other similar-looking shoes lol :’)
As a French I love when foreigners try to pronounce French brand names, as long as you do the effort to try the correct pronunciation I won't judge if it's perfect or not
But the jacquemoo got me like 😂
Booooooy been waiting for this one. Got me cackling 😂😂😂. The shade had its own shade 🤣🤣🤣
So much shade, I lost my vacation tan. 😂
With a dash of side eye👀
I have never been able to understand him. I don't intend that as making fun of how he speaks. I just literally can make out what he's saying. Too fast? Jumbled? IDK
You cracked me up when you said you can't tell whether you're fatigued from life or if this is really boring me!!!! That was hilarious!!!
The jumper, I can’t….
This closet tour screams “I think I’m fashion forward but in actual fact I don’t really know what that means and can’t be bothered to research the answer”
I think we all had the same facial expression as Luke while watching….
Don’t even start me on dropping 20k bag like a play toy whist stating it’s in the collection / valuable closet.
Congratulations on actually sitting through this Luke with commentary. I’m here for the low key sass!!
Why do all influencers have the same monochromatic minimalist closet? Where’s the flavor?
Something about purposefully damaging and dropping and being careless with expensive luxury items in your mansion closet full of clothes you wore once feels incredibly dystopian
Almost every piece he mentioned , he only talked about what video/Instagram post he wore it in. He only cares about social media clout, the pieces mean nothing more to him. Money is truly wasted on the rich.
You didn’t have to speak. Simply watching your facial expressions reacting to this would have been enough😂😂😂
You know what actually is stylish? SUSTAINABILITY. Rewear and reuse, buy secondhand, and support ethical brands. It boils my blood to see the wastefulness and complete thoughtlessness of rich people when we are experiencing a major climate crisis.
most rich people are tone deaf and selfish , a lot of people are selfish. that’s why things are gonna get worse and worse cuz people don’t care about the world they live in sadly. and that’s y I don’t idolize influencers and celebrities.
Same

@@trefens5635 💀💀💀
I'm so distracted by the dumb way he's "wearing" the sweater. I need him to finish getting dressed before he starts filming thank you.
Many other influencers in his age group are pulling really great outfits like Bretman Rock and Ricky Thompson, but he's still stuck in that brand name and hype beast era
At this point are Hermes bags even collectable/valuable items anymore?
aaahhhh i'm going insane "i'm just not a birkin girl" then WHY. did. you. BUY ONE. mr charles???? were you not aware that it's an option to simply not buy a birkin??? was someone holding a gun to your head??? blackmailing you?? using your family as hostages?? those crocodile babies are dead now because of you james
anyway great video. i empathized with all of your facial expressions throughout
the audacity of some people to call themselves "fashion forward"
They should be arrested
