Finally Tania. Yes, this is the right decision. I have stopped buying Hermes bags a long time ago when the game and disrespect started. And yes, let’s now strive to buy quality items from companies that value and cherish their customers, and treat them with respect. 👍
My friend once bought a fake bag and showed it to me mysteriously. I thought it was real, but she said she found it by accident and shared the link with me. *gtdupe*
Thank you for your honesty. Maybe the lesson here is that being able to get whatever you want doesn’t really bring fulfillment. There will always be something nicer and better out there that everyone doesn’t have yet that we desire. It can be hard to find contentment. I for one would be overjoyed to have one quota bag in my life. Not for the status symbol or to be like everyone else but because that means I worked very hard for something of great quality that will last a lifetime and can be handed down to my daughters. I do think it’s a severe shame that Hermes doesn’t allow us regular folk to save our money and just be able to go in and buy our dream bag and be done.
I doubt hermes took inspiration from celine for the constance elan because it's bn around for a while. I purchased my constance elan way back in 2013 & it looks exactly the same as the one released last year
You are right- i am collecting and being an HERMES fan for 30 years - but know I am very sad 😔 what is happening….to much models and stuff, leather colors ….and …and and . I sometimes think the brand is getting cheap ( not unique) and the people who wear Hermes ….also 😢😢
Wow they should be sending you free gifts instead of making you travel after all these years. The integrity of the brand is so much more important than chasing trends. Keeping your best customers happy should always be top priority. Are you seeing a lot of companies do this? I sure am.
It’s not bad. But it’s not independent and they are making another Dior out of it already. It’s not lvmh but it’s either richemont or kerring. The craftsmanship is good but leathers could be better. I’ve seen what they did with it in Asia and I’m telling you - another Dior in the making
I resonate with this. It has become very overdone. The products are good but they are not the only good ones out there. The bags are exceptional but buying from a reseller is easy and pleasant.
I think it's partly cyclical. Every brand goes through periods where you don't want to buy anything from them. Plus I would also say you've probably gotten enough of what you've wanted from Hermès, so you're less motivated to play the game. Give it some time, and the direction of fashion will change again. They'll be back to producing things that don't look like fast fashion. I'm 100% for you sharing the other brands you're exploring because I'd like to find some high-quality, exclusive alternatives, too.
Yes please take us o a good quality journey. I think we are all wanting that. There’s so many vlogs telling us that luxury is dead but no one is saying but this brand “xyz” can revitalize luxury.
I’m very similar, I love the classic design and quality of the bags, now that I have one B and one K, there is no comparison to any of my other bags (Chanel classic flap, lady Dior, etc). However, I will never trust the authenticity from a reseller. I’d love a vintage bag or two but again just don’t want to risk it. In Australia it’s very competitive. Similarly I’ve made connections with sales associates and other clients and some of us are very dedicated and spend 6 figures every year. I loved the journey, but then had quality issues with ready to wear, shoes eating my feet, a faulty watch strap on a time your way order, etc. Also heard someone spent $10k and got a B25 within a month of shopping at my local store. It was orange.. but still. The exclusivity I agree is contradictory and my eyes are open… Do I still love some products, absolutely, but it’s not the same.
Hello! I was just called by Hermes to tell me their list are closed for now and I cannot even express my wish… is this normal? I bought 6-7 items this year and just asked if I can express a wish and they told me they will have called.. I am sad :(
Ok. I suddenly started liking you after this. Frankly, before you were very obsessed with Hermes and it became your personality. It wasnt entertaining to watch. If you want bespoke high quality pieces, I will suggest Peter Nitz. Now, I'm also on the hunt for brands that make bags using Taurillon leather, Epsom, Barenia etc. Let us know if you find alternative brands that use these leathers!
Regardless of the *yutulu* bag or any other factors, I ardently hold that without proper expertise, one would fail to distinguish variations in the sack's appearance or metal parts.
I respect your point of view. However, here is my 2 cent: buying 4 Hermes bags (and any brand) as you said you did last year (or this one?) is one thing. The extreme lengths you went to achieve that is something else. No wonder after a short period of time you are simply exhausted and find it off putting. On another note, the “elan” style is part of their Hermes archives. I do not believe they copied Celine. With regard to the classics, one can never tell what will end up being a classic. It is only healthy to explore and experiment. Looking forward to discoursing (perhaps) new brands you will be exploring.
I'm dying to get a Kelly 25 in Rose Darling or Rose Sakura!! As a non-VIP customer, is that impossible? I'm thinking of editing my wishlist to just those colors, but I don't want to wait for 10 years... Also, I like retourne. I see most baby pinks come in Sellier. Have you seen a light pink in Kelly 25 retourne? Thanks
Hi, it's not impossible. I'm a non-VIP customer too, but I've managed to get bags from my wishlist. You can edit your wishlist, so you can definitely do it!
I remember you saying you have ordered a home deocr or furniture that you canceled and said that you were gonna share. What happened. Could the store have known about your subscription on how to score a bag and them feeling indifferent and cold with you so you naturally dont feel the love to buy anymore as it doesn’t feel as warm and welcoming for you. Coz i know Hermes doesn’t like anything social media sharing, apart from unboxing in stores which a lot doesn’t allow anymore too. And here you are asking money to score. Could that be a big factor of you not being embraced by the brand anymore but not necessarily banned if you know what i mean
Life happened 🙃The store knows about me and everything I do. I don’t understand why that would be a bad thing? I will share why I cancelled the order soon and if had nothing to do with them finding out anything since everyone already knew!
Chanels with the Chanel logo are no longer popular because there are so many well made fakes out there which will only make people stupid to buy the genuine product in 2024 because many will think it is a fake by then. The whole logo is gone and the *hotdups* bag caters to the market more.
If you have to go through so much trouble to tell a fake is a fake, then I don't understand why you would make such a fuss about buying the real thing. I would happily buy a fake kislux and have no shame in admitting it is a fake
Origin doesn’t matter, it depends on the craftsman and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 *hotdups* bags in the last 3 years and I am sure you will not be disappointed!
please please find some good quality unique brands for us! Birkins and Kelly are becoming way too common unless it’s an exotic.
😅 a good problem to have, too many!
I’m on it 🙌🏻
Finally Tania. Yes, this is the right decision. I have stopped buying Hermes bags a long time ago when the game and disrespect started. And yes, let’s now strive to buy quality items from companies that value and cherish their customers, and treat them with respect. 👍
I've only bought one bag from Kwanpen but it's stunning quality & the customer service was outstanding. So, at this point I recommend :-)
In fact, when you buy a high-end imitation and walk on the street, no one will care whether you have a fake or not, so why not?. *gtdupe*
The struggle is real. I am finally breaking up with the Hermes game. I look forward to your videos exploring other brands.
I will be reviewing other brands as soon as I find them! I hope to start very soon.

Agreed. That’s the lesson there ❤️ once you see it it’s very hard to unsee it

Thank you for sharing your experience! 😍
Yes please show us more luxury brands that are unique and not well known! 🙏🏻. Thank you and love you!
Will do!!!

What do you think about delvaux
It’s not bad. But it’s not independent and they are making another Dior out of it already. It’s not lvmh but it’s either richemont or kerring. The craftsmanship is good but leathers could be better. I’ve seen what they did with it in Asia and I’m telling you - another Dior in the making

Right!!! I just don't feel like I want to pay a salary to resellers.
@@tania.antonenkovaI agree. I don’t want to pay 3 times the amount to resellers

Absolutely! That's exactly what I'm planning to do in the near future 🙌🏻
Loved this video and honesty ❤
I used to care about these things, but since I bought a high-end imitation in *gtdupe* , I don’t care anymore. Theirs is really useful.
Many thanks 🥰
What do you think about Valextra bags?
Not bad quality but I really don’t like their designs.
Yes please take us o a good quality journey. I think we are all wanting that. There’s so many vlogs telling us that luxury is dead but no one is saying but this brand “xyz” can revitalize luxury.
I know. I don’t even know where to start looking for these xyz brands if I’m being honest. I know it’s not on the market of what we know
Finally, you woke up and realize you've been a slave to the brand 😅

Thanks for sharing your experience ❤️ I totally agree with you about the resellers. And yes, the Hermes game can feel a little unfair sometimes.
how do you know what amount is pre spend
I have a special UA-cam video about that 😉
Hello! I was just called by Hermes to tell me their list are closed for now and I cannot even express my wish… is this normal? I bought 6-7 items this year and just asked if I can express a wish and they told me they will have called.. I am sad :(

Where is your dress from?
It’s a 100% cotton dress from a new brand I discovered called opt. It’s not expensive but so cute
Regardless of the *yutulu* bag or any other factors, I ardently hold that without proper expertise, one would fail to distinguish variations in the sack's appearance or metal parts.
Thanks for your input!
What about gabriela hearst?
I’ll check it! ✔️

You sound like Purseonfleek.
Thanks for recommendation! ⭐️
Received an invite to (Miami) Hermes sale I’ve always wanted to go but I’m just not excited about it 🤯I did rsvp so I’ll see on the day of how I feel
Absolutely, you should only listen to yourself ❤️
If you received an invite you need to go or you probably will never get another invite
@@michaelbruno1330 let’s not threat this as a life threatening situation🤨
@@michaelbruno1330 may we NEVER consider this a life threatening event🤦🏾♀️
En el momento en que vi el bolso *yutulu*, supe que tenía que tenerlo

I feel you on this 💯 🤔🤔

I don’t care about Hermes thank God.
Can you please make a video on your VCA pieces?

I’ve already made it 🫶🏻
When im done with bags i go to jewellery. Easy😂
Haha, that’s a good strategy
Would love to see you collab with Tanner Leatherstein
I admire him so much. Would love that. I do think he would be interested in dissecting one of my bags he’s been asking for a birkin for a while now 🤣
@@tania.antonenkova maybe instead of dissecting birkins, the two of you could explore new luxury artisans together!
