‘Quiet luxury’ has always existed, so those who were cosplaying were always gonna get bored and move on to the next thing. Similarly, there are always going to be those of us who are maximalists and aren’t interested in the minimalist/fade into the wallpaper shit.
Totally this. I also think no one beyond TikTok really cared about it one way or another. It seemed massive but I think it was mainly people *saying* it was massive, rather than leagues of people changing how they dressed. You are either that person or you’re not.
IDK there is also the inevitable fact of people being financially squeezed in which case classic clothes will work far better than trends. Or you get the other inevitable fact that people get older and when they do they no longer care so much about trends. But there is the reality that minimalism and classic clothes are frankly BORING!
Quiet luxury has become boring and predictable. It’s taken the fun out of fashion, turning everyone into the same ‘wannabe’ lookalikes instead of embracing personal style.
Absolutely 10000% agree! Now watch a tonne of "quiet luxury" minimalist, influencer girlies do a 180° when the next trendy thing starts getting traction lmao
The issue is bandwagon and trend instead of style and individuality. People should wear what they please. I'll wear quiet luxury today and a logo tomorrow. High end today and target tomorrow. I'll mix it up. Make fashion fun again. Wear what you want.
This!!! I don’t have one style, I have the style of the day depending of how I feel! Everything doesn’t need to be high end or low end, we can totally mix if we want!
I'm not giving up my quiet luxury and stealth wealth style! i love it so much! I also LOVE texture! so the smooth Bottega is a F* no from me. But I really truly appreciate seeing all the different types of personal style out there. I HATE the idea of everyone looking the same, so I'm glad the 'trend' is dying, then those of us who enjoy it for non-condescending and non-arrogant reasons can continue it as a lifestyle.
Every closet should contain those staple ‘quiet luxury pieces’ mixed in with those ‘louder’ pieces, I love an all black outfit paired with colourful shoes and bags, a bit of quiet and a bit of loud, nothing wrong with both. I think people can get too invested in following only one trend at a time and forget to be individuals with their own individual style and taste. Fashion should always be fun and full of self expression
Angelica in the house! Love a Geli moment! I hope that quiet luxury is dead. It's not that I have an issue with the classic looks. I do them from time to time myself; but quiet luxury is SO BORING! Where's the whimsy, the audacious looks, "the good old razzle-dazzle", the edgy looks, the colors and creativity? Bring back the sparkle and joy, I'm lease, for all that is holy. I'm close to 56, people, so I'm not getting any younger and this quiet luxury, sad beige mom BS is making my eyes bleed and my brain cry. I see it, cringe and feel the need to wear logos, bright colors and punk jewelry; all at the same time, just to see something fun. Thank the universe for Cassie, as she brings the joy, happy and color with her every time she posts.
Quiet luxury is just conservative clothing. As someone in the older generation, it appeals to us, but I can see where the 20 and 30 somethings would get bored. Perhaps an in between place would be nice. I love how your fur baby makes sure to get into each video. It's so cute! 😂😀🐈
@@emerybayblues Overall, as people get older, they tend to dress more conservatibve. I'm 52, so i'm talking about people over 40. There's always exceptions and i'm certainly not talking about everyone.
Bottega was the ultimate quiet luxury brand before Piana, Cuccinelli etc. So what they’re doing now feels more authentic and more sustainable than their (admittedly very fun) Daniel Lee era. It doesn’t feel like a change to me - more like they’ve gone back to what they know best.
When I was a kid Bottega’s tag line was “when your own initials are enough.” They have always been lovely, well made products. I would kill to have my old mules that I completely wore out back, they just don’t make them the same anymore. Mine had a slim fit, now they make them more bulky, almost looking like Birkenstocks.
Basically people dress their personality. Some people are quiet and others are loud so they dress accordingly. I am kind of quiet, but I do go nuts with earrings which I want large, loud and colorful. give me color
YYYEEESSSS! I love colourful pieces and cool prints, especially as a man it felt as if all stores sold the same monochromatic stuff in the last year or so... Time for some magic to the eyes. Luv your channel Cassie!
I am and will always be an over-accessorized person (more is...more), and I will never do "understated" jewelry. Ever. However, I do have to say I have leaned in a bit into the neutral palette. One wonderful aspect about this "quiet whatever" era we're in is the beautiful new shades of neutrals that I had never seen on clothing before: from new gorgeous pastels and shades of gray (no pun inteneded) to mostly, the spectacular chocolate-rose and chocolate-burgundy tones. Neutrals are not garden variety neutrals anymore. But yes, I am seeing pops of color emerging...blues, violets, red. And...love that too!! [On another note, we can tell you are thinking about the Alaia dress Christian had for you---yes, we are all hoping you purchase :) You looked so breathtaking in it!]
Quiet luxury, in the sense of classic styles, quality materials and thus sustainable clothing that is not following trends blindly will NEVER be out of style. This mere imitation will be. Interestingly, this trend is connected to the most shallow influencers.
I just love that you cat decided to grace us with their presence! Also I love these coats but I bought cashmere coats from Hobbs back a decade+ ago for £180 that's better quality than most "luxury" brands make today.
My issue with quiet luxury was seeing people and influencers essentially "cosplaying" the old money aesthetic. This is interesting (and hypocritical) because a common insult that us luxury/fashion lovers get lobbed at us is that we shop and dress to make ourselves look richer especially with logo/recognisable pieces. Yet ironically, so much of this quiet luxury trend is just to outwardly project that you have not just wealth but "generational status" which literally cannot be bought... I can't stand this sartorial hypocrisy. Wear what you bloody like, logo'd or not!
Personal style has all but disappeared in the media- its all got to be a trend- wear the logos or not if you want- life is short- using clothing as an expression is so fun- be wild or be boring- there is enough for all ❤❤❤❤
People discussing quiet luxury put more into the mindset of buying what they'll want to keep in their closet forever. Evidently a lot of people, even outside of logo hoes, want the razzle dazzle forever. Thank god for the return of personal style🙌🏽
It has however focused people on basics, you can then diverge from them in an interesting way. It makes economic sense and the emphasis on quality over quantity makes a lot of sense. I don't want a dysfunctional wardrobe, or to be always 'on' making a statement but neither do I want to be buried in boredom. If you have a dramatic body type rather than athletic then you need a bit of drama.
If we are to be honest and serious about it, quiet luxury was always bad as a trend economically, in the long term for the industry. Timeless pieces that last won't make you overconsume the following seasons because your garment won't be worn out or “out of fashion”. People that are wealthy consume bespoke tailoring that don't need a massive platform, and haute couture, so they were always out of the cake cutting anyway. If the majority of the buyers invest in more pieces that won't be obsolete in three seasons forward, fashion industry won't be able to exploit their profit to the maximum. It was always faded to be a rapid frenzy attached to people that liked the aesthetics to emulate, rather than a personal and conscious style.
(long time watcher-first time poster) I am delighted the OM 'trend' is over, cuz I'm tired of people looking at me as though they know me. I am OM, and I want to watch fashion trends for the thrill that I will never buy, btw, i love reaching into my closet and always feeling just nice, i don't need to be fab
I kinda like to mix really classic pieces with something unexpected. Something like a Vivienne Westwood shirt or some really crazy jewelry, bag or accessories😎💅 ps. I just love your jewelry!!!
As a young kid in the fifties in the U.S., I remember the closets we had. They were small. My mother and grandmother had dressers filled with cashmere sweaters. They had wool skirts, floral cotton dresses, strings of pearls, gold or pearl earrings, structured bags, gloves. It was quite luxury with natural materials. It was not until the sixties that things got crazy and fun, and it started in England.
I knew that trend would not last, as a trend. You get bored 🥱 with the lack of variety. All brands started to look the same. Quiet luxury is good to get a basic wardrobe that you can build on, but I want something unique to add to it, something colorful, something I can play with to add to my personal style. Without that where’s the fun?
So many Commit themselves to trends and it all becomes the same regardless of the trend. The new trend is a reaction to the last overwhelming trend. Rinse and repeat.
Living through what I referred to as the American beige 90s, when the economy was down and all of a sudden khaki pants and GAP pocket tees became high fashion, was the first time experiencing the fashion gods dictate a trend that the majority followed. It was boring to see everyone on the social scene dressed the same so I opted for bright colors; Benetton outfits; an assortment of LV, Fendi and Coach bags; with Gucci, Ralph Lauren or Cole Haan loafers. My clothing choices, though bright, were largely logo-free which is something I’ve stuck with. Going through the closet, I’ve realized quiet luxury is not new. My many Galliano, Lacroix, McQueen, Armani, Saint Laurent and Ferre suits were very much IYKYK at that time and that hasn’t changed. That low-key RTW esthetic works for me and I jazz it up with a Classic Chanel flap or LV GO-14 and a logo sneaker here and there. I almost bought the jacket you’ve on in this video, despite it debuting at the peak of the quiet luxury trend but, opted for the pajama pants instead to add a bit of razzle dazzle to a classic sweater or cardigan. My advice, learn what works for you and incorporate trends sparingly into your own core style or aesthetic… you do that very well, Cassie!
Thank god, bring originality back. I never go by trends anyway I wear my logos and fun colors all day everyday. However I find it so boring everyone dressing the same. My eyes can‘t take everyone wearing beige on beige with a sprinkle of beige calling it fashion anymore haha 😂
I think there is a time and place for both "quiet luxury" and "loud" outfits...and let's face it...everything will be back, someday....hold on to those special pieces and you'll be set 8) Enjoy your day Ca$$ie, good luck with the move and watch that boss of yours 🐈⬛
I’m sort of in the middle. I don’t particularly care for logos splattered all over something I’m carrying or wearing. But I also won’t pay 6k for a bag without some sort of recognizable logo/item on it albeit on the smaller side. Just my personal preference.
This quiet luxury trend, not the existence of quiet luxury, but the trend itself has been a joke to me and it seems as though not a lot of people want to call it what it really is. Quiet luxury has always existed in fashion for those that prefer not to garner a lot of attention with their fashion. The trend, to me, came on the heels of Logomania and the infusion of streetwear that sent fashion houses into territories that leaned unfavorably for certain groups but made them a ton of money. It's almost as if the industry was being "DEI'd" with the fashions. To separate, thus appearing to elevate from this, we got "the quiet luxury trend." It’s so laughable as I'm writing this. But, IYKYK. Great discussion Ca$$!
The irony was the people shouting about quiet luxury really weren't happy if their pieces was so quiet people won't know it was LUXURY. Also those pieces were hardly that different from main street or even cheaper brands at first glance that it was just ridiculous money to spend on maybe 10-30% better quality things. Also with how low the workers and farmers were paid for the items, the difference in the price tag was only lining the pockets of the company. Also... how many core items can one really buy without being tired of them if you are a shopaholic and really want to refresh your wardrobe every season? With how much carbon footprint is with each garment, I think low-buy is the way, but that pretty much does not really align with fashion trends and marketing/profit (ahem ahem). So if you are choosing to buy anyways might as well buy statement pieces to feel like each purchase is unique and time stamping, you do you!
Gelli!!!! 🩶🥹 what a gorgeous girl just like her mum and grandmother!! Give me all the razzle dazzle, crystals, lurex, appliqués, logos, textures and fun!
I consider myself a lover of quite luxury clothing but I wear VCA and they say that it’s not quite. I also like some of the colors this season, especially burgundy. I guess there is a little razzle dazzle in me, too!
Does anyone still remember we used to hang little cutiesy stuff from our brick Nokia/Motorolla flip/phones in the 2000s???? The bag charms is giving that😅 But you know what, if the bag charm is cute I will get it like I got myself an apple charm to go with the Coach empire carryall in the Merlot ❤
I agree with you about the simple opulence trend. That said, I have to tell you that with this hairstyle, you made me think of Kendra, the other slayer in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She was really cool.
I love mixing. I wear neutrals and quiet luxury/classics and then I love to pop in a statement piece unexpectedly. That way I hardly get the: "I have nothing to wear" moment.
I never understood why people connected silent luxury with black, white and fucking beige. It is good to have a few pieces in all those colours but as a white, blond with green-brown eyes person, I hate the beige trend with a burning passion. I want nice materials in nice colors with a nice cut/tailoring. I don't like logos or big prints, but that doesn't mean I want to look like a monochrome wallpaper.
Coffee with Cassie!! 🇬🇧☕🇺🇸 I always enjoy the content, no matter the topic! Your delivery is delightful! I was told, years ago, my style is classic with a twist. I'm good with that!😊 Have a great day!💕
Out here in the countryside, logos are ever hungered for. I'll just schlep around in my BR until a massive trust fund or endowment lands in my lap. Experimental chemo isn't covered by my insurance. No point in a glam skeleton, despite what Hollywood seems to be trying lately lol. Check your insurance coverage. If the insurance company can override your specialist doctor on what treatments for illness get covered, get different insurance if you can
I hated quiet luxury, hated being told to blend in or dress to look rich. I always think fashion should be a form of self expression. It’s about finding your style and what makes you look and feel beautiful. Quiet luxury just takes away all the things that makes you excited about fashion.
i will say that the way i that i participated in the trend was using the silhouettes of quit luxury but with color. An example, the high waisted wide leg pants, but in teal, blues, purple paired with a more neutral top. so i like a lot of the silhouettes, which are timeless, but with colors that i will always want to wear. but if you were in it to cosplay i could see why people would move on. I am glad that the runways are moving on, they all don't need to look like the row or lorro piana.
I liked it. I've been "preparing" for this my whole life! I don't like bright, loud colors and patterns where people look like they belong at a beach party (I don't, however, mind a logo as long as it's not head to toe). Give me neutrals or give me death!
Urgh. I hope this so called quiet luxury trend is dead so I can do what I want without it being a trend. Wish all the things I want as a gen x is unfashionable but it's not happening. I want my stuff i want for cheap!
Not really surprising that quiet luxury has had its day due to its biggest fans (millionaires like Gwyneth Paltrow) are not the biggest customer base. Loro Piana didn’t really help the cause by not paying the farmers in Peru for the cashmere they charge so much for. It made quiet luxury look more like the big luxury con. May as well wear it loud and proud if the brand is ethical.
Your jacket looks amazing on you. Grateful I don’t follow trends - maybe apart from an LV silver mirror 20 - want that so much - will need to sell one or two other bags x x x
Happy Wednesday Cassie. Oh the Cat. Adorable. Jelly looks like my Cat. Her name is Karai. However, we call her Kitty, or Puss. I am still a fan of quite luxury. Blessings lovely.😺😺😺.
I like the move away from the super low key quiet luxury. I definitely love quiet luxury in the sense that I love having a set of very high quality luxury basics. But in order to have some individualism and to express our own personal sense of fashion style, we needs to have something fun as well. This movement towards a middle ground of maybe low key items with one standout element (vs loud in all aspects style of the early post Covid era) is just the middle ground we need.
Never cared what kind of luxury item it was and is that I was wearing! … when I was very young and poor, I used to wear different brands that we have around now… they didnt rely on logos heavily at the time. Had the Moynat bags when no one had heard of it… I am old now and I go around with Chanel and Dior on my jackets and bags … Gucci all over my sweatshirts… It never mattered! I could carry both brands on my body and I was totally cool with it! It’s about being comfortable and confident in wearing anything and feeling good in it.
I mix it all up. I wear what I like. Maybe Banana Republic denim button up blouse with Frame jeans and my Fendi black roll tote and my small stainless steel Rolex watch and other fine jewelry and a designer black belt. I amp it up with accessories that’s for sure. I’m wanting to venture into designer sneakers but I feel like they would be too showy. But I’m thinking about it. I do love sparkle and razzle dazzle!
Love this convo !!! Intentional , sudden QL is condescension. I can. You can’t and I want you to know. Some “try” to ride the rollercoaster without paying for the ticket. It’s all relative. Do you❤. Love u Cassie !
Quiet luxury-how my grandma dressed for a majority of her 82 year long life. Nothing wrong with it but wasn’t planning on getting on board with it for another 20 years 😂
Personally I enjoy the quiet luxury side of things, but I don't think it'll last. Reality is luxury is majority for aspirational buyers, who love a logo :)
‘Quiet luxury’ has always existed, so those who were cosplaying were always gonna get bored and move on to the next thing. Similarly, there are always going to be those of us who are maximalists and aren’t interested in the minimalist/fade into the wallpaper shit.

Yea there's always a middle ground between trendy and out of style, some things are just timeless.
lol, well put!

And it seems we’re finally letting go of it now 🤩
Agree!

Now watch a tonne of "quiet luxury" minimalist, influencer girlies do a 180° when the next trendy thing starts getting traction lmao
Why I personally never get into or follow “trends”.
Omg the little kitty feet
Hehehe 🙈🙈
This is why Coach have been genius! They made quiet luxury bags then sent them down the runway in the most maximalist way! It was great.
Great point! 🤩
Also, the product itself is good, durable and not an over-the-top price.
The issue is bandwagon and trend instead of style and individuality. People should wear what they please. I'll wear quiet luxury today and a logo tomorrow. High end today and target tomorrow. I'll mix it up. Make fashion fun again. Wear what you want.
Great point! I love mixing high-low too

Wishing a nice day as always❤
Thank you! You too!💖💖
It was never alive with me. I wear what I want.

Shopping our closets is a vibe❤
No way I could do this before but now at 57 I want a quality capsule timeless wardrobe. But denim will always feature strongly.

I actually love quite luxury and so happy it came “back” it helped me find my style - in or out, I’m in! Love the jacket btw!
Completely agree! I have always been more of a quiet luxury gal BUT the runway should be about fantasy and opulence.
This quiet luxury trend, not the existence of quiet luxury, but the trend itself has been a joke to me and it seems as though not a lot of people want to call it what it really is. Quiet luxury has always existed in fashion for those that prefer not to garner a lot of attention with their fashion. The trend, to me, came on the heels of Logomania and the infusion of streetwear that sent fashion houses into territories that leaned unfavorably for certain groups but made them a ton of money. It's almost as if the industry was being "DEI'd" with the fashions. To separate, thus appearing to elevate from this, we got "the quiet luxury trend." It’s so laughable as I'm writing this. But, IYKYK. Great discussion Ca$$!
I LOVE your videos so much, I could listen to you all day! ❤
Freya you’ve made my day telling me this! Thank you 😭💖
I’m all for quality, can we quality and razzle dazzle. 😊
We certainly can!
My favorite amongst all your bags is the 'grey kitty paw bag' behind you ❤😍😅
The irony was the people shouting about quiet luxury really weren't happy if their pieces was so quiet people won't know it was LUXURY. Also those pieces were hardly that different from main street or even cheaper brands at first glance that it was just ridiculous money to spend on maybe 10-30% better quality things. Also with how low the workers and farmers were paid for the items, the difference in the price tag was only lining the pockets of the company. Also... how many core items can one really buy without being tired of them if you are a shopaholic and really want to refresh your wardrobe every season?
With how much carbon footprint is with each garment, I think low-buy is the way, but that pretty much does not really align with fashion trends and marketing/profit (ahem ahem). So if you are choosing to buy anyways might as well buy statement pieces to feel like each purchase is unique and time stamping, you do you!
Gelli!!!! 🩶🥹 what a gorgeous girl just like her mum and grandmother!! Give me all the razzle dazzle, crystals, lurex, appliqués, logos, textures and fun!
I consider myself a lover of quite luxury clothing but I wear VCA and they say that it’s not quite. I also like some of the colors this season, especially burgundy. I guess there is a little razzle dazzle in me, too!
I love quite luxury and I’m so glad to hear the “trend” side of it is dying. It kinda has cannibalised it self
Does anyone still remember we used to hang little cutiesy stuff from our brick Nokia/Motorolla flip/phones in the 2000s???? The bag charms is giving that😅 But you know what, if the bag charm is cute I will get it like I got myself an apple charm to go with the Coach empire carryall in the Merlot ❤
I agree with you about the simple opulence trend. That said, I have to tell you that with this hairstyle, you made me think of Kendra, the other slayer in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She was really cool.
I love mixing. I wear neutrals and quiet luxury/classics and then I love to pop in a statement piece unexpectedly. That way I hardly get the: "I have nothing to wear" moment.
Quiet luxury has its place but give me a logo with some bling any day of the week!!!
I love loud luxury but there is a time and place I lean into the quiet stuff. So I am glad brands are producing both options
Oh my gosh your jacket still slaps!!! Awesome video😊
I've always been like: I am not old money, so why pretend to be? I shall be who I am: obnoxious and gauche lmao
I never understood why people connected silent luxury with black, white and fucking beige. It is good to have a few pieces in all those colours but as a white, blond with green-brown eyes person, I hate the beige trend with a burning passion. I want nice materials in nice colors with a nice cut/tailoring. I don't like logos or big prints, but that doesn't mean I want to look like a monochrome wallpaper.
I’m waiting for “quiet luxury” to fade away completely; or, maybe just to be quietly not talked about. I want the Cassie’s razzle dazzle. Just sayin’.
I prefer the balance of both. I have too much LV monogram to be quiet.
FINALLY! Looking forward to seeing individualism in fashion!
🤭🤭
Bring on the Razzle Dazzle 💫
Coffee with Cassie!! 🇬🇧☕🇺🇸 I always enjoy the content, no matter the topic! Your delivery is delightful! I was told, years ago, my style is classic with a twist. I'm good with that!😊 Have a great day!💕
I love that grey feet bag! so chic, give us a review
Out here in the countryside, logos are ever hungered for. I'll just schlep around in my BR until a massive trust fund or endowment lands in my lap. Experimental chemo isn't covered by my insurance. No point in a glam skeleton, despite what Hollywood seems to be trying lately lol.
Check your insurance coverage. If the insurance company can override your specialist doctor on what treatments for illness get covered, get different insurance if you can
I hated quiet luxury, hated being told to blend in or dress to look rich. I always think fashion should be a form of self expression. It’s about finding your style and what makes you look and feel beautiful. Quiet luxury just takes away all the things that makes you excited about fashion.
Hey Cassie! I welcome the change! Geli is too adorable! Have a great Wednesday!❤
Wishing you a wonderful day!
i will say that the way i that i participated in the trend was using the silhouettes of quit luxury but with color. An example, the high waisted wide leg pants, but in teal, blues, purple paired with a more neutral top. so i like a lot of the silhouettes, which are timeless, but with colors that i will always want to wear.
but if you were in it to cosplay i could see why people would move on. I am glad that the runways are moving on, they all don't need to look like the row or lorro piana.
I liked it. I've been "preparing" for this my whole life! I don't like bright, loud colors and patterns where people look like they belong at a beach party (I don't, however, mind a logo as long as it's not head to toe). Give me neutrals or give me death!
Urgh. I hope this so called quiet luxury trend is dead so I can do what I want without it being a trend. Wish all the things I want as a gen x is unfashionable but it's not happening. I want my stuff i want for cheap!
Not really surprising that quiet luxury has had its day due to its biggest fans (millionaires like Gwyneth Paltrow) are not the biggest customer base. Loro Piana didn’t really help the cause by not paying the farmers in Peru for the cashmere they charge so much for. It made quiet luxury look more like the big luxury con. May as well wear it loud and proud if the brand is ethical.
Brands like Loro piana and the row never saw a dime out of me. It’s just not who I am!
I am all for loud but maybe not leopard ❤
Your jacket looks amazing on you. Grateful I don’t follow trends - maybe apart from an LV silver mirror 20 - want that so much - will need to sell one or two other bags x x x
Choices are great.
🤩🤩
Thank God you are always there for us Cassie!!Not sure what we would do without your vlogs💖💖🥹
Money for boredom™ oh can feel the joy inside, Cassie 😂
Happy Wednesday Cassie. Oh the Cat. Adorable. Jelly looks like my Cat. Her name is Karai. However, we call her Kitty, or Puss. I am still a fan of quite luxury. Blessings lovely.😺😺😺.
Awww Geli is sending her best wishes to Karai! 💖
@@CassieThorpe ❤❤❤.
I like the move away from the super low key quiet luxury. I definitely love quiet luxury in the sense that I love having a set of very high quality luxury basics. But in order to have some individualism and to express our own personal sense of fashion style, we needs to have something fun as well. This movement towards a middle ground of maybe low key items with one standout element (vs loud in all aspects style of the early post Covid era) is just the middle ground we need.
Never cared what kind of luxury item it was and is that I was wearing! … when I was very young and poor, I used to wear different brands that we have around now… they didnt rely on logos heavily at the time. Had the Moynat bags when no one had heard of it… I am old now and I go around with Chanel and Dior on my jackets and bags … Gucci all over my sweatshirts… It never mattered! I could carry both brands on my body and I was totally cool with it!
It’s about being comfortable and confident in wearing anything and feeling good in it.
I don’t think people consider that Quiet Luxury is just ✨minimalism✨ but make it expensive. So quiet luxury has always been around and prevalent.
I’m all for the razzle dazzle as well
I love color,I love a nice Logo and sometimes it has to be classic and quite.
We need more frequent appearances from Angelica😊
I mix it all up. I wear what I like. Maybe Banana Republic denim button up blouse with Frame jeans and my Fendi black roll tote and my small stainless steel Rolex watch and other fine jewelry and a designer black belt. I amp it up with accessories that’s for sure. I’m wanting to venture into designer sneakers but I feel like they would be too showy. But I’m thinking about it. I do love sparkle and razzle dazzle!
Love this convo !!! Intentional , sudden QL is condescension. I can. You can’t and I want you to know. Some “try” to ride the rollercoaster without paying for the ticket. It’s all relative. Do you❤. Love u Cassie !
Love you Queen 👑
Love you!
The kitty near the Birkin 😅(grabs pearls)
Quiet luxury will be back only next time it will be called Timeless Attire
Not the Boss supervising on the shelf lowkey 🤭🤭!
Quiet luxury-how my grandma dressed for a majority of her 82 year long life. Nothing wrong with it but wasn’t planning on getting on board with it for another 20 years 😂
that jacket is FIRE girl!
Love the LV jacket, Cass! 😍😍
The speedy you got in the blue/teal does that come in pink. I think that is the only LV bag I would like
Personally I enjoy the quiet luxury side of things, but I don't think it'll last. Reality is luxury is majority for aspirational buyers, who love a logo :)
Arrest me! I'm guilty of adding a few fatal blows. I hate that treand
Geli is life. My kitty is with bf, he will see a replay since it absolutely stars his fave online🥰
