      Yeah it’s too much of a dupe of the Kelly to be taken seriously. I wish this brand would have its own identity. Why spend all the time and skills of the artisans on something so unoriginal

      I know wealthy women who carry replicas. The main reason they gave is that they just understand the value of money and don't want to spend too much money on bags... so more people choose fashionable*jklux* bags. However, they do spend a lot of money on fine jewelry and other things.

      I have two pre-loved*jklux* that people left the stickers on, and when you remove them, the hardware looks different than the hardware right next to it that the sticker didn’t touch. It’s not because the other has scratches, the sticky stuff affected the finish.

    Thank you Steph! This IS a really tough decision. My fave option from your recommendations is the griege LV bag. Is it heavy? The other ones I’m considering are the puzzle fold from Loewe and the camera bag from Ferragamo (haven’t seen any videos of these bags so I don’t know how they wear. Which would you pick as an everyday work bag? I carry a larger bag with my work stuff. I need a light crossbody to put my essentials in. Lastly, what tote bag are you wearing in the LV store? Thx. J. 🙂

      "I love a good 66 because it helps me decide if I want to buy the real thing or NOT." That part right there. That's IT. I feel like people stigmatize dupes but for me, I pause on large purchases that are trendy or when I feel the overconsumption mania setting in FOR ME. (It's something I struggle with LOL! I'm easily convinced to buy things I don't wear or use. They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!

    Would these problems occur if the bags were used every day? I just bought a monogram canvas pochette metis from the Kusama collection. I love the colorful polka dots and hopefully they won't melt, haha. But I don't think I'll use it very often. I also have a NoeNoe from DA but I only use it a few times a year in the spring and summer so the wear isn't that bad. Hopefully the wear won't show up for a while. Also, I'm saving up to get a H Q L U X Y. Have any of your coworkers had the same issues with this size? I don't mind the shape being a little looser but I also don't want it to become a puddle of water. Thanks for the video!

      I have the Maya, and it's lovely, extremely well made and quality. BUT - I was wary about the resilience of the 24kt plating. Sure enough, the hardware on the front of the bag (both sides where the straps attach magnetically) is already marked, and the bag hasn't even been used yet! It was just unpacked, opened, experimented with how much fits inside (a lot for its size), then closed and rebagged. Next time I opened it up, I saw the scratches. It's also quite fiddly to open up, practically impossible when you are actually carrying it by the handle, which probably caused the scratches. The other gripe is that, at 5ft tall, even on the shortest setting, the strap is very long. Carried on one shoulder, the bag is a couple of inches above my knee, and it doesn't look as good cross body. I'm still undecided about keeping it, lovely as it is.

    Amazing video and haul for 1st time buyers. It is indeed confusing and overwhelming unless you v into fashion and clear about what you like. I have both luxury to mod range and fun bags. For fun fashion bags really feel marc Jacob's is value for money snd the zip and compartments are v useful to travel with or just an everyday bag.
    Lalage also seems beautifully made and gold hard ware super but do feel they look alot like the Kelly bag.
    I soooo love❤ the demellier bags... beautifully made and well priced and v original in design. Been asking If there is a store like selfridges that stocks them or where I can actually see their entire range physically? Pls do let me know if there is one

      Leather is much more eco-friendly than faux (pleather) plastic leather. It's a by-product of the meat industry, but maybe you don't eat meat? It's also eventually bio-degradable so won't pollute the planet for millennia. And will outlast the faux leather alternative.
