I am so happy to hear you won’t be wearing any Balenciaga , I just can’t believe what they are doing. I just think you are fabulous, I watch every video and love your newsletter and love your blog. You and Philippe are such a great couple, my husband and I have the same type of relationship, thank you for all you do
@@kristinabaezz Their bad decision on advertising. But at the end the day, it’s the people working (or making the decisions) for the brand that should be punished and not the actual Brand.
Tamara, bring your clash bracelet to Cartier. My boyfriend bought a bracelet from Cartier and one year later he brought to Cartier because it had so many defects and they apologized because it was a relatively new piece so the design wasn’t perfect. They allowed him to use the value of the purchase towards another piece so I ended up getting a ring for me lol. Go to Cartier and bring your bracelet there!!!!
I just don’t get the excitement for Birkin handbags. I swear it’s just that some people like them because they are expensive. The small Kellys are cute, but the larger ones look like bags for very old ladies only.
Agreed with your choices. That Balenciaga handbag is actually ugly, regardless of it's parentage. It's reminiscent of a 90s bag. Can't wait to see video of your vacation and what you are wearing/wore. ❤️❤️❤️
Fun watching this because you post shots of you wearing the clothes. That visual is essential. My best purchase of 2022 was a Rag & Bone blazer. The regular & boyfriend cut blazers don't appeal to me as I wore them in past years, not my vibe any longer. Therefore, I wasn't even in the market for a blazer but I saw this and it's cropped, pockets on the chest, linen, black, structured but casual. I paid full price but bought it in the heat of summer, was able to return it and get the sale price late summer, which made it an even better buy. As to worse, I just cleared out some 2021 jeans, sent some tops from 2021 supporting a local consigment store, but I'm not sure for 2022 yet. Thanks for another great year. Happy New Year to everyone !
What an amazing choice! Bag, Prada hills, earrings, skirt, jeans... everything is so gorgeous! I think you should get a chance to the other pair of jeans, they look amazing!
The same thing happened to my Cartier diamond paved love bracelet , it happened to both mine and my twin’s bracelet and I kept going back to Cartier until they added a double enclosure. This was probably after 5-6 visits , the customer service was horrible and for such an expensive bracelet , i was shocked how badly it was made!
I agree, your black Birkin and watch are forever pieces and elevate any look x 💯. The pumpkin dress, I wonder if it could be reworked by Phillipo? Remove the feathers or turn it into a top, idk. Or just wear it as is with green and white trainers and be an upside down pumpkin. 😄
I do believe you are confused. You are aware what you feel should be boycotted isn’t what others feel?This is not confusing. Countries are sovereign.They make their own laws. Your comment is so western.
While france literally ban hijab and made fun of prophet Muhammad pbuh nobody said anything nobody boycotted france or french designers while qatar just respected their traditions and culture without hurting anyones sentiments i really think you are the one confused here
Great video. I too have a few Balenciaga items and I do not want to wear them either. I was in a Nordstrom recently and asked a sales associate if their sales of Balenciaga dropped off. She said only a small amount and people are still buying fashion from the brand. I told her I was too embarrassed to wear my small collection. She said "why?" Then she went on to say something that really made me think (this is not talking about you Tamara). She said many of the people who are vocal about how horrible Balenciaga is, are ok with wearing clothing made by children. She was referring to the fast fashion crisis. She was in no way defending what Balenciaga did but she had a valid point. What is worse in the situation? The fast fashion crisis or the Balenciaga photoshoot? At this point, I will not be wearing my Balenciaga stuff. I'm not sure if or when I'll wear it in the future or if I will attempt to sell. But all of this did make me wonder about the fashion industry as a whole. We are only 1 tweet, 1 IG photo, or 1 TikTok away from another brand being canceled. I can't afford to keep buying stuff only to have something like this happen again with another brand. I've decided to cut way back on Fashion purchases and I def want to avoid a lot of logos as well.
Adore the YSL jacket!! Seriously contemplating but don't you need to be super careful with it being velvet, especially in the rain? Would love to hear your experience of 'wear and tear' xx
Your videos are always entertaining but you almost made me spit out my coffee, laughing, when you explained why the black striped dress was on the 'worst' list. You crack me up. I can't imagine you ever looking like a pumpkin - you are so elegant, you make everything look good.
I wait every single year for this video! It’s one of my favorites. I even think throughout the year when you make a purchase where in your list they are going to end at the end. Thanks for sharing, Tamara! Have a lovely rest of your holidays ❤
Love seeing these best/worst videos and hearing your thoughts on the items!! Would also love to know your top complete looks from the year / how you decided to put them together.
My best purchase of the year where definitely my LC Waikiki jeans, $8 in total. Wearing them every day, what a lovely pair of jeans 👖 Hmmm worst purchase, maybe Decathlon active socks. I thought that the price of $4 was for two pairs, but instead it was for one :( No big deal, still loving them :)
Hey T. really missed you ❤ Love all but to be honest I agree with you about the ysl stripes dress with feathers and the color of the Chanel slingback . But T. you’re the queen of shopping always 😍 with all the worst items you showed I didn’t like only 2 😁 The best for me is the AP watch 🤩 then the Birkin touch and the Ysl jacket (top 3) but I repeat love all 🥰 Love T. 🇲🇬
I am so disappointed in Cartier bracelets closure quality .. so many people lose their love bracelets .. now what you say about the clash bracelet - that s soooo disappointing for the price. I own third generation family Jewelry gold bracelets with stones. They must be from the first half of the 20th Century non branded from a local jeweller - fragile closure but it keeps going strong.
Tamara, first of all I already miss your vlogs, what a lovely December we had with you! Please thank Fillipo(I do not know how tp spell his name), because he certainly is the secret ingredient of this years videos...Moving forward, being a budget girl myself, I would love to see a video form you on the best leather pieces from your wardrobe, both lux and affordable, or where would you shop for affordable chic and good quality? Another video I would like to see is, what do you think young women in their 30is should be doing to improve-maintain their skin and face ? what type of new technologies and interventions would you suggest, or maybe you could review few things you have heard or try so far..I would love to hear a beauty chat from you, a person who travels so much, works so much, what type of beauty routine do you follow? inwardly and outside procedures..p.s Saint Laurent blazer was my favourite piece from your wardrobe as well, its so simple , chic and easy...wow ...greetings from Tbilisi
I’m shocked you haven’t worn the beautiful Chanel blue sling backs. They are gorgeous. Also, the beautiful pink Chanel jacket. They both Would be so nice with black trousers. You have so many stunning clothes🌹 Have a great week and Happy New Year 🎆🎊
Hey Tamara, I have two Clash bracelets and I had to exchange both of them at the very beginning because the closure was the same as you described. I got brand new ones and they never open now ! Go to Cartier and tell them, they have to help you !
The pieces are gorgeous. But I agree, I have seen like 8 in the last week push the same brands. Idyl, lily silk, skill share….they are all good and I get it. But when the same companies are pushed over and over it is annoying
For the idyl what size is that that you’re wearing is it small medium or large and very interested in purchasing but not sure what size would suit me best and I really like the size on you.
Cartier has great customer service, why don't you take it in to get it repaired? I have heard about love and juc falling off however, knock on wood i have never had that problem with any of my pieces.
Tamara you can do no wrong in my mind! Fabulous vlogmas and your best year of content ever! Definitely take back that Cartier bracelet. Surely they'll fix or replace it. Too pricey to have that defect. Send you lots of love and can't wait to see you in 2023! Cheers to you and Philippo for a wonderful 2023!
Love the pink Chanel Jacket! Wonderful videos! Thank you! Happy New Years to you & your Family!🎉 I purchased a few sweater Dresses recently & they are so warm & cozy! The weather has been so cold & will get a lot of wear out of the Dresses!💕
Just adore you and your fabulous style! Amazing honest video- thank you! For your US followers Can you please link the Prada items on Prada as MyTheresa does not show the items and after calling them they confirmed the don’t sell to the US it’s a bummer but your Prada links are always blank. Or let me know the style name. Thank you and cannot wait for your 2023 videos! Cheers gorgeous 🎉❤
The balenciaga bag is horrible i don't get this trend 😅 love all the things you love and thank you for all the pieces you don't love this was very helpful ❤❤❤
To be honest That B handbag is neither stylish nor chic or beautiful! I doubt if a sick soul group and ill will designers are capable of creating anything attractive that can spark joy!!!
I am so happy to hear you won’t be wearing any Balenciaga , I just can’t believe what they are doing.
I just think you are fabulous, I watch every video and love your newsletter and love your blog. You and Philippe are such a great couple, my husband and I have the same type of relationship, thank you for all you do
What is an issue with Balenciaga? Did I miss something?

They’re madame old lady looking bags .. that is what I think when I see one , like clinch those pearls
is it just me or do the Chanel tweed jackets always look so cheap....? they have Zara written all over them....
They used to be really great quality !! To last a life time .. I don’t know about current quality though
It’s not you lol it’s definitely giving zara and so are their bags and shoes these days 8K for a small classic! Should just get a birkin or Kelly
They do
Omg you're so right
The new ones definitely do for sure, that one she held up didn't even look like Chanel
Love everything you put out here! I was so surprised by the KKUWAN crossbody bag. love it! ❤
Thanks for sharing your values. There's a lot of influencers wearing Balenciaga like nothing happened.
I love the birkin with the subtle croc detail!
Agreed with your choices. That Balenciaga handbag is actually ugly, regardless of it's parentage. It's reminiscent of a 90s bag. Can't wait to see video of your vacation and what you are wearing/wore. ❤️❤️❤️
I loved to hear your comments about Balenciaga bag and other Balenciaga pieces. Unethical to wear. Totally agree with you.
My best purchase was my hunter green, double breasted coat I got for 6 bucks at my local thrift store. 🤣🤷♀️
The best/worst video was so good. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on each items. I hope you are enjoying your vacation. Happy New Year! 🎊

I think Cartier could fix the clasp BUT I agree that closures are a challenge because I find the juste un clou bangle hard too open and close.
What an amazing choice! Bag, Prada hills, earrings, skirt, jeans... everything is so gorgeous! I think you should get a chance to the other pair of jeans, they look amazing!

hi tamara, what do you do with the clothes you don't wear or don't like? do you sell them or give them away to friends and family?
My black birkin 30 was my all time top bag. Mine is just plain but I adore it. Love your touch
You wont wear your Balenciaga bag but will go to the world cup in Qatar? I am so confused sometimes...
Could you explain why do you compare this things? We know why Baslenciaga is not ethical..but world cup?
I do believe you are confused. You are aware what you feel should be boycotted isn’t what others feel?This is not confusing. Countries are sovereign.They make their own laws. Your comment is so western.

@@sonjamilovic3679 thousands of slave workers died being worker to
Death for the stadium in Qatar .. that’s actually worse than what Balenciaga did
@@Lifeaswepreppy sure working slave workers to death is such an ethical value .. disgusting
I think you should bring the cartier bracelet to the boutique. They should repair or replace for free
Especially for you

Beautiful Tamara!
Wishing you and Flippo a healthy, happy 2023!
We appreciate all you do✨
Love the ear stack! Where is that 3 stars stud from?? Is gorgeous!!!
I ❤ to know too!!
I thought she said it was from Idyl as well.
Have you taken the clash bracelet to cartier to get fixed? I had an issue with mine (flexible) not rigid and they fixed it and now it's great!
Surely Cartier would/should repair the bracelet?
Your videos are always entertaining but you almost made me spit out my coffee, laughing, when you explained why the black striped dress was on the 'worst' list. You crack me up. I can't imagine you ever looking like a pumpkin - you are so elegant, you make everything look good.
Same!!! She could never be. Pumpkin but I wish skinny wasn’t a word or a goal to still aim for. Every-body is beautiful 🙏
Love the Saint Laurent jacket and of course the Royal Oak ♥️
I wait every single year for this video! It’s one of my favorites. I even think throughout the year when you make a purchase where in your list they are going to end at the end. Thanks for sharing, Tamara! Have a lovely rest of your holidays ❤
Hi Tamara! Your link to the Prada jeans isn’t working. Are those the wide leg high rise jeans or the low rise jeans. I love them so much!
U should do a video styling things in your wardrobe you never wore!
Love seeing these best/worst videos and hearing your thoughts on the items!! Would also love to know your top complete looks from the year / how you decided to put them together.
My best purchase of the year where definitely my LC Waikiki jeans, $8 in total. Wearing them every day, what a lovely pair of jeans 👖
Hmmm worst purchase, maybe Decathlon active socks. I thought that the price of $4 was for two pairs, but instead it was for one :( No big deal, still loving them :)
Thank you Tamara for not having the Handbag... GOD BLESS YOU 🙏 X
Hey T. really missed you ❤
Love all but to be honest I agree with you about the ysl stripes dress with feathers and the color of the Chanel slingback .
But T. you’re the queen of shopping always 😍 with all the worst items you showed I didn’t like only 2 😁
The best for me is the AP watch 🤩 then the Birkin touch and the Ysl jacket (top 3) but I repeat love all 🥰

Absolutely love seeing your videos.

hi tamara ,lovely to add a bit more sparkle . to the ears .maria tash gorgeous too ..happy new year , to you and loved ones .all the best.
😘
I like your channel and content. I’m glad you said something about Balenciaga, but wish you would have said more.
I am from São Paulo. I love your english and the way you work.
Tamara the problem with the bracelet has a solution,take it to one of their boutiques, i am sure that they will solve it.
I’ve done the same with shoes. I have pairs that look beautiful but kill my feet! But you don’t know that until you get them home! 🤦🏻♀️

Happy new year Tamara, thanks for all you do for me, without even know it ❤❤❤ wishing you the best always ❤❤❤
Link for the Prada jeans doesn’t work 😢
I’m shocked you haven’t worn the beautiful Chanel blue sling backs. They are gorgeous. Also, the beautiful pink Chanel jacket. They both Would be so nice with black trousers. You have so many stunning clothes🌹 Have a great week and Happy New Year 🎆🎊
I love it that you love what YOU LOVE ❤
Happy new year Tamara
I have the same bracelet i actually feel the lock is very hard to open maybe you should take it to the store
Hey Tamara, I have two Clash bracelets and I had to exchange both of them at the very beginning because the closure was the same as you described. I got brand new ones and they never open now ! Go to Cartier and tell them, they have to help you !
I really enjoy your videos and commend you for your stance on Balenciaga. All this pushing of Idyl by influencers is getting really annoying though.

Excellent video, Tamara! I've enjoyed watching it :)
For the idyl what size is that that you’re wearing is it small medium or large and very interested in purchasing but not sure what size would suit me best and I really like the size on you.
She's wearing the Big studs with the Lucia on her left ear, and the Medium studs with the Apollo Chain on the right ear 🤩
Thank you so much for recommending Idyl! This year I bought the necklace and diamond studs. I haven’t taken those off ever since 😍😍
I feel like the worst jacket and flats will go so well together
Cartier has great customer service, why don't you take it in to get it repaired? I have heard about love and juc falling off however, knock on wood i have never had that problem with any of my pieces.
Love the Birkin jewelry 💕 ❤️
My best purchase was my The Row bindle. Not that much into logos anymore - understated luxury is the way forward ❤
Could you please do a hair care routine video? I have similar hair texture, but I always look like a 🐑 sheep 😂
Loved the honesty on what you recommend and you saying the YSL dress looks like a pumpkin made me laugh 😂
Would you know what size diamond your Cartier diamond necklace is @tamara TYSM 💜💜💜
Boycotting won’t change a thing. They aren’t the only brand that has issues. Resist the urge to supplicate the mob!
So true. In 6 months everyone has forgotten this. Remember the D&G scandal?
I've purchased the same pink Chanel jacket because of you .... still waiting for looks with this lol
It is a beautiful, feminine jacket. I would be interested for Tamara to style it also, maybe three ways?
I support your desicion to not wear balenciaga. That’s why I am following you for years ❤
I’m worried now about my clash bracelet 🥲
Tamara babe you look so beautiful as always hope you have had a wonderful christmas xxx
I would do anything for that balenciaga black bag
Tamara you can do no wrong in my mind! Fabulous vlogmas and your best year of content ever! Definitely take back that Cartier bracelet. Surely they'll fix or replace it. Too pricey to have that defect. Send you lots of love and can't wait to see you in 2023! Cheers to you and Philippo for a wonderful 2023!
Happy New Year Tamara, my best wishes for you and your family. ❤❤❤
Are you selling your clash bracelet?
May I ask, how do you manage to not catch your Apollo ear chain on anything like your fingers or hair brushes?
Have a question about your hair love your color, so do you use your Dyson airwrap, or your Dyson coral more I don’t know which one to get
Yay!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Love all your videos and you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I think you should take it in to Cartier to get it fix
Love the pink Chanel Jacket! Wonderful videos! Thank you! Happy New Years to you & your Family!🎉 I purchased a few sweater Dresses recently & they are so warm & cozy! The weather has been so cold & will get a lot of wear out of the Dresses!💕
will you sell your old bags & rtw anytime soon?
She just said she’s going to gift to friends and loved ones first
Just adore you and your fabulous style! Amazing honest video- thank you!

I really dont like that YSL jacket i don't know why
The balenciaga bag is horrible i don't get this trend 😅 love all the things you love and thank you for all the pieces you don't love this was very helpful ❤❤❤
Hi Tamara! Love your channel! I wanted to ask, where is your third necklace from? Is it a Hamsa hand? I loved it!! 😊
Chrome hearts?? I think she explained in a previous blogmas blog 😊
I honestly love balenciaga and i still wear this
so nice to hear that you stopped wearing Balenciaga
The most beautiful ear party 🤩
I guessed the “touch” - in fact, I yelled it out and my dog gave me a dirty look!,
What a fantastic year Tamara. Thank you for inspiring me. Happy New Year and here’s to hopefully an even better 2023 ❤
Il migliore acquisto è stato un cappotto di veluto. A volte si comprano delle cose che non si usano, fa abbastanza arrabbiare 😐
Isn’t ysl owned/managed by the same group as balenciaga?
Yes, it is. Kering owns them, Gucci, Bottega and McQueen.
So if one is truly against what balenciaga stands for (CP) then wouldn’t one boycott all of the other brands ?
@@jesseeec they have different creative directors
Amo ver tudo que você faz e lindo suas joias são maravilhosas.
To be honest That B handbag is neither stylish nor chic or beautiful! I doubt if a sick soul group and ill will designers are capable of creating anything attractive that can spark joy!!!
Make a concours for us 😁
someone else with exotic leather.. thats sad
Can anyone please tell wheres that wrist watch from????
Sorry tamara I should say I love your stunning diamond studs
love the video❤
I would take the bracelet back - they need to sort it out.
