I automatically put $150 in a separate account every payday and on my birthday in January..I purchased the big lux bag that I want... During the year I Dibble and dabble in preloved goods by selling my old bags. Love your channel!
great idea - it is amazing how quick it adds up!
Never ever getting tire watching this video!
Thanks for watching
I’m ashamed to say I always assumed you were wealthy and didn’t have to think about the cost of things. This makes you so much more relatable, and makes me feel more comfortable spending my money on luxury for myself, even though I too have to save up first x
aw its ok. I totally understand. Thank you for watching and getting to know me :-)
I sold a few things on Poshmark and made enough money to buy my LV nano speedy 😊
I’m trying to do the same for my first Chanel bag!
That is awesome! XOXO
Good for you Amber explaining how you are able to purchase your luxury items. I also give myself an allowance and after several months will purchase a SLG. A lot of people assume you are wealthy so your honesty will attract more subscribers. Well done!😘
aw that means so much! Thanks!
You appear to be a hardworking gal and I think it’s fantastic that you save and provide for yourself on these luxury purchases. You should be very proud! What a great example you are setting for your daughter Skye. 👍
AW that means so much - thank you!
I am the same way , I save for them and don't rely on others to spoil me . . . I get questions all the time when I upload new items on my IG endlessly . I have to make sacrifices and also go through my closet to resell items that I no longer wear or use . I also save my coins too and take them to a local bank at the end of the year . I love that you also stash money away so you won't go overboard with purchases - this specifically helped me . I am the type that if I have money I will run off to the store . Thanks so much for sharing . I extremely enjoy your videos each time you upload .
aw that means so much - thank you!
Thanks for sharing! I come from a very similar background and don’t feel comfortable spending money from my husband and I’s shared account on luxury so I decided to set up a separate bank account this past year to save for a luxury bag and SLGs I had been eyeing for years. I sold items on Poshmark and FB Marketplace and was SHOCKED at how quickly the money added up. I was able to purchase 3 handbags and a handful of SLGs! Keeping a separate account for “fun money” is key!
yay - so true! Thanks for watching!
Hello Amber thank you very much for your tips. This is a great video! I put some cash in an envelope it is only for food. Sometimes I need more money, but sometimes I have some left over and this money comes in an extra envelope for my handbag what I want. And I save every month money for my handbag what I want. It takes a while until I can buy the Louis Vuitton on the go in gm in empreinte leather in black, because it is very expensive. And I want to make a vaccation this year too. I think I can get it next year in the summer month.
❤
Yay!! Stick to the plan! You can do it
Amber your voice is so nice and soothing to listen to
aw thank you so much!
It’s true I started saving up and I just made a video of my dream bag it took me a year but I did it and I’m disabled and I’m on Social Security .. so if you want something I realized that you can save you can do it .. and I just made my purchase on a new LV and that’s my first purchased on a luxury goods .. tfs 💕💕
yay - congrats on your new purchase! Enjoy it!
@@AmberAshleigh35 thank you 😊
@@heylady2110
I agree with you!
👍😊
I would love to see a video with like a template of your budget especially with your background in finance
great idea - thanks!
I was thinking the exact same thing! 🙏🏻😍
We do very similar things (minus the TH-cam channel side hustle). 😀 I have a BS in finance degree. I make sure to put away 19,500 in my 401k, 6k in a Roth IRA, save some money after that in my bank account, then put whatever I don’t need to use in an account for my luxury items. I absolutely agree with the most important tip: DO NOT GO IN DEBT BUYING LUXURY ITEMS. It’s not worth it girl. 😃I just sold a watch on Poshmark for $76 (after their fee). More money towards my next luxury wish list (Cartier or VCA).
1st here Amber good morning I love your videos. Instead go to coin star I buy a dollar coin packs so I count them and save them until I have a bunch and take them to the bank I also always go to marshals, Nordstrom rack and find a lot of good prices so I can spend more in handbags
Buy on sale clothes and shoes
Try not spend on fast food during the week just on weekends
My sister did the same thing. 👍
yay - thank you so much! I love those places too - you can find such great deals! XOXO
@@AmberAshleigh35 yes great brands great prices
Great video! I really enjoyed hearing your story and tips! Also, to add, I use cash back points from my credit cards. I treat my credit card like my debit card and pay it off each month. The points really add up.
yes excellent point. I use my discover points as well. Thanks for sharing!
Whew! So encouraging and refreshing! I’m so glad you aren’t “pretending” you’re so honest with your money so thank you! ❤️
Thank you so much!!
I have a Poshmark store and I've made enough to get a Chanel Jumbo flap! Ca$h. Don't put on credit cards, people. Be disciplined and stay strong. You can do it. You'll smile so hard watching your gorgeous bag be handed to you knowing you don't owe a credit card for it. =) All of your tips are spot on, Amber. 👍
Your great and agree with you. I do the same thing sell things that I doesnt thrill me anymore, shop for sales, sell art n craft items I make. Lately I go to resale places and find great things to resell.
Thanks for sharing and for watching!
Great tips! ❤
I also spend on lux handbags, slg and some accessories (and perfumes), but not on lux clothing. Zara and H&M are my favorite :)
Love that! Thanks for watching!
Great tips. I don’t begrudge anybody what they buy with their own money. I know coupon and discount queens who dress to the nines.
They save and strategize and sell things on Poshmark, etc., so enjoy!
thank you so much - I appreciate that! XOXO
This is also how i afford my handbags. I dont spend money on mani pedis, tanning, shoes, clothes, eating out and i save my coins too😂
it is amazing how much money we can save by doing things ourself! Thanks for watching!
I get my nails done at least 2 times a year and 5 times my toes, i just started to really order clothes online. I used to go to the salon each month but I haven’t been there for 2 years. When I go out to eat my boyfriend normally pays or we split it. I have been trying to save for my first luxury bag but it’s impossible, in my country the currency for USD went up like crazy. So it’s getting harder to save I have to save at least $2000 and that is srd 36000,00 in my countries currency 🤦🏽♀️.
❤️
@Valarie Gem it isn’t that easy and I don’t want to move to another country.
Me too!! 😂
Thank you so much for your tips and tricks Amber! I appreciate it! It is a goal of mine to save money this year! Every little saving counts!
You are so welcome! Thank you!
At one time I was working 2 full time jobs, so the one check I just started collecting my Luxury bags. I’ve got everything from Coach to LV to Goyard to Chanel. I gave my Gucci bag to my 9 year old.
I legit gave away a lot of clothes that don’t fit my kids to donation bins I forgot u could sale!!! 😩😩😩 my kids have nothing but good stuff too next time I know to sale forget that! Lol thanks Amber for the tips!!!
Honestly money adds up fast once you have a goal in 2019 I quit coffee and wine and started to cook at home
Only with those small changes I’m able to buy luxury bags .
great ideas! Thank you!
It’s good to get to know you Amber. I’m a finance girl with a teacher mom too and I have the same IKEA PAX in brown after multiple quotes from California closets and closet by design too🤣 also same thing with hubby 🙌🏽. Thanks for sharing this I feel less guilty about my splurges now and I’m definitely inspired to save on things that don’t make me as happy
aw yay - thank you so much!
Really good and important tips to save first before putting $ towards shopping + prioritizing areas to spend money on. Thank you so much for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
love this video and your tips! As I'm a student I don't make a lot of money, but since I keep track of my spendings I am able to save a lot more money.
Love that! Thank you for watching!
you seem very smart! i agree on your prioritizing; i hate myself when i spend money on eating out or other things i don't need. i save everything and make infrequent big purchases. hope my subscription gets you a new bag! lol
aw thanks so much! I appreciate you taking the time to watch!
A way I save for a new bag ....
When my birthday or Christmas comes around and I’m asked for ideas from my family, I let them know I’m saving for XX and I’d love $$ to put toward it. Of course I’d never tell my family to give me money, but if they ask it works out well.
great idea - thanks for watching!
You’re so honest and nice 🥰 I really love your videos 🙌🏽
Thank you so much!! I appreciate that!
I love that you talk about re-investing your TH-cam money into luxury! That is something I am keen to do as I grow my channel. I spent my December adsense on a Kate Spade bag which has become some great comparison content! Couldn't agree more about having a "side hustle".
it is so true - thanks so much for watching XOXO
@@AmberAshleigh35
I’ve recently started watching your channel, your perspectives and tips are so helpful and you have such a beautiful personality!!
that means so much! Thank you! Ps...I like your name :-)
I get extra from work with bonuses and overtime pay. I just use it for extra luxury purchases. I'm like you I am not into spending $250 for a t-shirt because it is a designer. I use several retailers on Ebates and buy mostly during big sales and cashback offers. I also invest and make additional income there as well. I set up different saving accounts for Christmas, miscellaneous, and vacation. The key is planning and setting goals.
yes such great points! Thank you for watching!
Love all your tips, thank you for being so incredibly honest on your channel. I love the coupon idea, I never do that, but should. You are the best.
OMG - That is so sweet of you to say - thank you!
You are so nice person!
I start watching your Chanel and I love it!
Xoxo🖤
Thank you so much!!
I reduced my spending on going out to eat and it has payed off. I also keep my credit cards in check. I only spend 30 to40 of my credit line, because my limit is a high amount. When l purchase bags l don’t go over my percentage. I work hard and l deserve it and so do you guys as well! Great video and advice❤️
Thank you for inspiring and showing us how to afford these luxury items without breaking a bank. This is a very informative video thank you.
aw that means so much! Thanks!
thanks for these tips. love the channel. i'm late but one tip is shopping overseas. if you're flying to/through london, paris or rome you can save hundreds between the pricing + VAT refund. the boutiques at heathrow always have great sales.
Thanks for the info!
This was so super helpful! I love the cash allowance system! Not so much for groceries but for gas, nails, hair and extra cash gets stashed away for a purse or pay off a bill early. I love Rakuten for cash back! And I will check out some consignment stores-what a good idea-to get some money from my work wardrobe. Extra savings accounts are great too. I will say that I will put luxe items on my cc but I will pay it the next day so it’s like it doesn’t even hit. I just like the peace of mind I have paying with a cc versus a debit card. Thank you so much for new tips and ideas!
I definitely agree with you! Thanks so much!
Love your suggestions. I actually just started a piggy bank(literally yesterday) to save for my bday in April. Hopefully I can save enough to spoil myself(dreaming of the palm springs mini).🤞😁 Hubby and I share accounts so I want to make sure only random change goes in the piggy bank LOL 😅 seperate from our savings accounts.
AHHH that is such a good bag! I have my eye on that bag too. I wish you luck and I hope you are able to get it. Thanks for watching!
If you have a Discover card, in July you get 5% back on PayPal purchases . The last 2 years I planned to make a bag purchase and got back $75 which is the max. I think this year I will get the NF in Damier Ebene with Rose Ballerine.
I also put away any singles I get . This was a tip I got from TH-cam and was amazed at how quickly I saved up $. It entices me to pay cash and then I keep the $1 bills when I get them.
GREAT IDEA!
I have my separate acct for my luxury handbags!!! I get an extra savings when my husband give one of my wishlist when he travels.💗 ( He's attending convention and not all the time I go with him😅) He's also happy where I'm interested in.😜 He is splurging luxury with the watches. But we spend wisely. Thanks Amber for sharing your thoughts and tips!!!❤️❤️❤️
thanks so much for watching!
I wrap all my coins in those coin wrappers. My husband always leaves change laying around, so I take his too 😂
HAHA - good idea! I will have to do the same!
Lol me too🤣
Really encouraging dear, I love handbags too, Minette from South Africa
thank you so much!!
This is great, thank you! My issue is when I see a great “deal” on Poshmark or another site. I’ll see a gently used LV item, for example, and it’s half of what it is retail. So I rationalize it in my head. I’ve gotten better but it’s hard to be disciplined. I think being home during the Pandemic has also made it more difficult bc many of us have cabin fever and so I just browse online 🙈
HAHA - Totally agree - it is definitely hard to be disciplined right now, but you can do it :-) haha
Loved learning about your background Amber! 💕
aw thank you so much! have a good evening! I can't wait to see what you got your daughter! XOXO
This is everything my parents taught me. Pay the item off immediately and if you want it, work for it. Great video. Never never pay off a luxury item in installments.
thank you so much!
This was a great video thank you for sharing your tips I’ve been doing some of these my self and have been able to afford luxury goods ever since
Glad it was helpful! XOXO
Love your hair💕💕 I clicked to see your hair and enjoyed the video.
aw you are so sweet - thank you!
Just found your channel and I really like your philosophy on purchasing luxury goods! Looking forward to more videos :)
Yay! Thank you!
Amber thank for sharing love your honesty everything about you 💕 I buy my own luxury bags too don’t like to ask my husband or anyone for anything ❤️
Love that!
I like the spreadsheet idea, I’m going to do that and chart my savings for my next bag
YAY - let me know how it turns out. XOXO
Thank you for your story and your tips Amber
Thanks for watching!
OMG.... I love excel spreadsheet and formula. We are much alike, I would spend money on bags and save in other area.
yay - thanks for watching!
Thanks for all the tips love
No problem 😊
Best 💗VIDEO💗 of 2021 Hands Down 🙌🏻💄💋👛👠
aw you are the best - thanks!
Thank you Ashleigh for your tips. They are so encouraging. Me too, I like to save money and buy everything I want but with a reasonable price. Also, my dream is to buy a channel bag.
aw so glad to help! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for tips. Awesome video!!!
No problem! Thanks for watching!
Absolutely LOVE this video! Thank you so much for your honesty!!! ❤️
thank you so much for watching!
You just saved my my wallet, thank you! I appreciate this so much🥺♥️
Glad I could help! XOXO
I subscribed to your channel based on this video. I like you 😊
Yay! Thanks
Hi! Wallet and cardholder collection video! Or top 10!
I can definitely do that! Thanks!
I also have a spreadsheet and saved via piggyback for my handbag
YAY - Thanks for watching!
Great Video! I never spend any of my coins . I clean out my purse every Sunday night and whatever money that was in it, I put in a piggy bank and buy a luxury handbag on my birthday. Also, every pay check I would go to the bank and get $25.00 in coins. One year I save $1500.
That is amazing - thanks for watching!
Your video is well done. Great job! 👍🏽
Thanks for watching
Thank you for the tips!! Hopefully I can save for my first bag. I'm hoping to get the YSL envelope bag
oooh good luck! You will love that bag! It is one of my faves!
Great info pretty lady!!!👌🏾
Thank you!!
I am a new subscriber to your channel so I’m playing catch up😃. This was a great video. I do the same thing when it comes to cutting back on other things so I can afford to purchase luxury items. My favorite tip you made was to have money put into a different account from your check. I’ll be doing that tomorrow.😊
aw yay - thanks so much for watching!
Great video and love your suggestions!
Thanks so much!
Amazing video, love every bit of it👍🏾 Keep going!
Thank you! Will do!
Nice. I can see myself doing this.
thank you so much for watching!
Nice & inspiring video. I do budget &separate savings too for luxe to reward myself end of the yr😉.
thanks so much for watching!
what a great video 👌
Thanks! 😃
Great video, thank you for sharing your tips❤️
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing those great tips. I just save up for my purchases too and I don't spend a lot on clothes, food, etc...I will say though, (and trying not to sound braggy) my car is super nice but I got a really good deal on it used. Like you said, there's a give and take.
thank you so much for watching
A good car is a must for safety reason. A Mercedes is much better than a Corona in terms of armor and protection. It's worth it the money spent.
@@AARON12895 Funny you say that, my car IS a Mercedes. It drives so nicely.
Great Tips! How many handbags have you purchased since this video was up? How many in the last year? Just curious.
haha I'm ashamed to say a lot!

Loved this video!!!
Thank you!! XOXO
Just found your channel! Love it 💗 I do the consignment shop as well! Great tips 👍🏻
Awesome! Thank you! XOXO
A video on how to make that excel spreadsheet for savings/bills/income ??? 😭😭💖💖
good idea - thanks for watching!
Thanks Amber👍🏾
thanks for watching!
Great information 🤗
Glad it was helpful! XOXO
I have an accounting background & I do a lot of the same things, I do my own nails & waxing, I don’t need to colour my hair, I don’t wear a lot of makeup, I stick to a minimalist skincare routine that works, I mostly eat home cooked meals & I only drink water. People don’t realise how much everything adds up, even their morning coffee over a full year is a lot of money. My father & I bought my mother a necklace from Tiffany & Co using the coins we had both saved up for the year.
love that - thanks for watching!
Thank you 😊! Really good tips !!!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great tips to save money for buying luxury bag. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great info Amber! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! XOXO
I love your channel! Thank you for all the great tips.
thank you so much!
A luxury channel that actually makes sense in real life! using the most basic and wise financial principle: live within your means. If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Save for it and you'll be happier when you're able to finally purchase the item in cash😁
But to be honest, I'd rather invest the money in stocks and real estate... that's just me, to each his/her own❤️
thanks so much for your feedback and for watching! xoxo
Great video. 👍
Thanks 👍
Loved this!!
thank you so much!
Excellent informative video. At 67, I learned a lot!
Glad it was helpful! XOXO
These were great tips. People like what they like. My only hope is that whatever people like to splurge on, that they're being financially responsible! So that we can enjoy little luxuries without worrying about high interest rates or payment plans if we can avoid it.
yes excellent points. Thanks for watching!
My favourite kinda videos 😉 Xx
thank you for watching!
Ebates is my FAVORITE!! I got like $300 back on a Gucci purse I bought! I use it for everything!
Good to know. I’ve never used Ebates, but I’ve been thinking about it.
yes - I love it. I use it every single time I shop online. Thanks for watching!
Hi amber love you thanks for the tips 😊💓
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Do you ever buy pre loved high end bags?
By the way thank you for your tips! I’m not into high end shoes,clothes but i love luxury bags!😍
yep I sure do - I purchased my lady Dior preloved from fashionphile.
Hi
Very interesting and informative video
I went to Neiman Marcus online to see the luxury sale. The handbag I fell in love is not on sale but is preorder...
I am scared it will get sold out....
what do u advise to do in a situation like this?
Ps: Neiman Marcus just filled for chapter 11, so that adds to the urgency.
Great video good helpful tips!
thank you so much for watching!
