- Which designer handbags are worth the money and are good investment pieces? Great question. Some designer bags hold their value, some increase in value, some are even worth more second-hand than new! I listed 10 timeless handbags of high quality, which you can invest in and wear 10 or 20 years, without them getting out of trend.

Good overview of bag sizes across brands:

Note: check the size you are purchasing! A small “special edition” can be more expensive than a bigger “classic edition”. The material has more impact on the price than the size of the bag ;-)
Note 2: when shopping for luxury bags, remember to always check that you are buying a “real” bag and not a counterfeited one. Buy on verified, trustworthy websites!

UPDATE: I launched my own handbag collection, made in Europe using vegan canvas and chrome-free leather 😍 -> it's available here: ua-cam.com/video/LmKKe5vGvjg/v-deo.html
I went to Paris with friends in 2007. One wanted a specific Dior bag she'd spotted in Vogue, so off to a Dior boutique we went. She showed the magazine page and asked for the bag; what happened next still amazes me. Salesclerks look at each other, and call over the department head. She spent several minutes questioning my friend about what her daily routine was, what she normally carried in her bag, what the weather was like where we lived, and what colors she normally wore. Department head then sends off salesclerks who return with the bag my friend wanted and two others, then spends about 20 minutes explaining why one of the other bags would be best for her. Turns out it cost less too. Instead of focusing on the sale, she focused on the customer and taught us to determine what looked and worked best for us. I became a Dior fan that day.
Wow! What a super cool experience. Thank you for sharing!
this gave me goosebumps at the end haha!
thats awesome wow
This is exactly how they do it in Paris! Sure miss it :) I had a similar experience at the Chanel flagship store.
Great story! But it's also smart business: they want a customer for life, not just a customer for that day.
I don't even buy luxury bags but I thoroughly enjoyed this video. So informative and classy. Thank you Justine 😊
same here :-))
Same here.... even if I had the money
You don't???.......... You imbecile.
I find luxury bags utterly distasteful... it robs you of individuality and reduces you to nothing but advertisement for the tacky brand and products. Also extremely overpriced for what it is. You don't buy prestige and status anyway. You earn it by treating sentient beings well. If someone is having a luxury bag I run in the opposite direction. Owning one is a good sign that the person lacks intelligence and critical thinking skills.
@@lepetitchat123 you sound suicidal, those luxury bag are not different than luxury watches for men, they are signs of accomplishment and daily reminder of your personal success, the psychological effect is very powerful, you have no idea and they are also lifetime item since they are made to withstand the test of time not only in their build quality but also in their design itself. this has nothing to do with intelligence or critical thinking but all to do with emotion and intrinsic value of a given thing
What I love about you is the fact that you dont have any long, squeaky high pitched voice intro. You just get to the point. And the content is always interesting.
Xoxo
Iza H I LOOOOOVE THIS ABOUT JUSTINE
Yes. It's a rare blast
@Pop Corn Hello. I'm not sure I understand your answer
the shade.
Very true.
Love the French names pronounced with a true French accent!
‘Hold my champagne!’ 😂❤️ I absolutely adore you
😁 I agree!!!
Skye Farhoudi best line 🤣🤣
"Hold my Champagne..." 😂
Justine always makes great videos, but that one line makes this one a classic! Lol 🥂
Absolutely!!
I can respect Hermes for that though for not giving celebrities any special treatment or anything. They have more money than majority of "normal" people so if anyone should pay full price i think it should be celebrities
It’s not like Hermes do it for ethics 😄 They keep it that exclusive and unreachable so that people who afford it go the extra mile to get it. It’s not like normal people can even afford to get close to it anyway.
Hermès does give celebrities special treatment though, in a way no one else does. Only celebrities and the superrich are able to buy the bags new, by having connections.
@@platosfriend You have a car, don't you? I could see paying $6,000 for a bag that I would carry for a lifetime
Mirandy, they don't. Even beeing a celeb you have to pay full orice. Watched that with my own eyes. and surely you can get a Birkin as a normal beeing. I got one by mself. You have to spring through loops, that's right. But it is possible.
@@lazyhomebody1356 that price you'd be paying is for the status of the brand, it's not like that 6000 is anywhere near what it'd take to make the bag, unless they're embezzled in gold and diamonds. You can get a bag for 10% of that price that will last just as long, and still be a name brand.
For me personally I do not like to buy and handbag or any luxury item for that matter that clearly has the identifying logo on it. For example I prefer the classic version of the Chanel flap because it doesn't have the inverted C's logo. For me any kind of logo or large monogram seems to cheapen the look of it in my eyes. My opinion stretches especially for branded T-shirts like the Gucci logo styles that seem to have spread these days. A piece with no obvious or large logo is much more sophisticated and classic to me.
I cannot agree more. I was tAlkig to a friend who loves LV and recently got a wallet. There was honestly no worthwhile design element, the leather was just indented with the monogram all over... That's it. I spent the longest time on looking for a Longchamp backpack, and I settled for one that had the smallest Longchamp title on it,and there was no logo on the front of the back (part of the foulonné line, so it doesn't even have the iconic flap, and the zippers don't even have logos lol. I purely got it for its quality, and if someone really wanted to know where it's from, they'd have to get super close, hah). Also, my first lux wallet was from Valentino which I respect because people can recognize it from a design element itself (the rock studs), rather than a logo or the name spelt largely. I am interested in getting a Celine or Hermes product because it also shares that idea. But Hermes is just a dream right now haha. Céline is classy, and very wearable for work.
And it gives them free advertising
I feel that, I do feel like spending money on just the "name" being printed heavily on the front, now determines the price. But i am a Gucci kind of Girl, I actually one day want to be able to afford Hermes head scarfs- maybe a kelly LOL. I like brands like Celine and Jimmy Choos because the bags and their designs are simple yet timeless.
I 100% Agree. I live in NYC so you see Gucci and LV Never-full EVERYWHERE!! People like what they like, but I want a designer piece for the quality rather than the "Showiness" of it. Plus if it's just about a logo a bunch of people will just go to Canal St. for fakes
Man, I thought I was the only one. I absolutely hate bags that have a visible logo, ESPECIALLY Louis Vuitton, these ones look so cheap and tacky to me, I don't get how anyone wants to use them. And inverted C's sadly spoil it for me too. Why would anyone want to be a walking billboard?
Hi everyone! Did you notice the lipstick on my teeth? Yes, me too 😭 So let's move on to another subject... What do you expect from a good handbag: Size? Features? Material? Secret pockets? etc. Thanks a lot for your opinion!
Comfort is the first thing I look for in a good quality bag ie: good quality straps that don’t dig in to the shoulders, etc.
Nope, haven't noticed the lipstick!
For weekends: small structured fits cell phone, keys and wallet; work days: big structured holds in place is hard fits laptop papers wallet cellphone. A big bad that helps me hold everything in its place yes with secret pockets. Has a light inside when i need to find the keys at night
Didn't see it
a bag i can wear crossbody and is made of the softest leather (or exotic skin). not too small not too big
I love that you include the history of the bags...More please! Maybe history of certain fashion pieces???? Thanks. Love your channel
For your question, the bag has to be lighter than the stuff that I put in the bag. Heavy bags are not practical. It feels like a work out to carry one around.
I agree with that! I've had some nice bags that I stopped carrying for this very reason.
True, lighter but also durable.
True!
TRUE !!!
Yes. I like the style of Fendi Peekaboo but after trying it on, that darn purse is too heavy!
I️ love how your face lights up when you talk about the history of these bags. Votre passion est évidente 💕
Je suis tout à fait d'accord.
I love your style of presentation.
The fact that you try to add meaning to the fashion trends sets you apart from the rest of the fashion bloggers on youtube.
There is so much history attached to everything !!
Keep up the good work.
sania somayya she is a REAL fashion blogger
I agree! I love all the background info!
Mostly watching this for the history behind the bags
Loved the video 👏🏼
I like bags which hold their shape. Not a fan of slouchy bags.
same ! that's why I can't do the popular Stella McCartney Falabella .. I much prefer a firmly structured bag
“Jane Birkin uses her royalty received to donate to charity.”
Wife: I bought this bag to contribute to charity.
Gaddai The Rage 😊
This is the reason Why you either say you dated a stripper named Charity and always bring her up when she wastex money on charity. Or get an account with bank that lets you name your accounts and name one of them charity and call her out when you cant see the money in that account.
Im not interested on luxury handbags but that was actually a great video! All the story behind every design make it so interesting!
Thank you justine for another great video!
What a great video! Can you do the same for jewelry?
And shoes
Yes please!
Jewelry would be very interesting!
When you didn't know you wanted a "Kelly" until you watched the video. 🤩
After the video I know that the last thing I need is a "veeeeery exclusive" Hermes Kelly handbag. It's not even that nice.
RIGHT?!?!
its so refreshing to see a substantive and succinct method of presenting these topics. none of the silly pre-ambles and overly long and cringe worthy personal anecdotes that other youtubers engage in
Millennials dieing AT HORRENDOUS RATE.....WAKE UP AMERICA ...WE HAVE a WAR BEING FOUGHT ON OUR SOIL.......TRUTH....will STOP THE DEATHS.
For me the important elements are a zip for security, the quality of the leather and/or fabric and timeless style. I have a few Diane von Furstenberg bags that I adore.
My husband gifted me a Speedy 30 (?) for a wedding gift in 1986. It’s still amazing and I love it. ❤️❤️❤️
Get insurance for it. Great investment!😉👍
When I read "investment" I had no clue it would literally mean thousands of dollars. It beats me how money is spent in such a way :D
It seems so gross given how many people in the world don't have enough food to eat. However, this is an interesting video.
@@GinaMarieCheeseman I so much agree, and the wife of the soccer player who has 100! She could house the homeless in LA. I get a little irritated at these designer types 'lecturing' us about buying clothes are what they call 'fast' fashion, yet support buying things just for the sake of being decadent, and for the name. I know Justine is really sweet, but she is part of the 'cult'.
it never ceases to amaze me either how much people spend on status symbols and name brands either . I personally have never spent more than $80 on shoes and bags. my husband this year bought me a very nice tote made of real leather and it was $85-95 . I plan on having it for 8 years or more. I wouldn't dream of having a bag that cost a down payment on a home on my arm!!
Amanda H, the difference is the designer bags are handmade in limited quantities. It’s not made by people earning slave wages in a sweat shop. That’s why I used to love the Coach bags that used to be made in New York. They were expensive for me at the time, but they were well made, timeless and practical. I still have one from the ‘80s. You can buy them as vintage bags for very reasonable prices on EBay now.
@вылижи_мне писю I don't live in California, and don't understand the point of your comment. If they housed the people, they wouldn't be homeless. Taxes certainly aren't paying for that. But, your comment could be used to illustrate the issue. L.A. is also a very wealthy area, with women who pay 5 or 10,000 dollars for a handbag. And, that could pay rent for a homeless person for a year. It's all a matter of priorities.
I like pockets so I can separate categories of items in my bag. I'm a teacher, so that can include a lot of interesting items. 🙂
I have been purchasing leather Longchamp products for years, but after I purchased a Pliage in navy, I loved it so much and carried it all the time. My friends noticed this and upon my retirement gifted me six more matching pieces, so I have an entire navy Pliage set, from the coin purse and clutch all the way up to the largest tote! I am absolutely in love with this set ... and so thankful for my lovely and generous friends! ❤️
Oh lord I just love this channel
No kidding.
Andrea Andrea hahahahaha I love it as well but I honestly don’t think I could pay that amount of money for a bag....
@@ajohonly3721 I wouldn't either! Sometimes I just watch fashion and think about how crazy it can be: what people pay for a Rolex watch is obscene ... but it makes me happy to know that, at least the craftsmen and women who do fine, fine work have jobs. (I just hope they are suitably paid for what they do). It also makes me happy to know I DON'T NEED ANY OF IT! And I LOVE my clothes!! None of my wardrobe cost 'la peau des fesses' (as is said in France), i.e; crazy money. I love fashion/design and I love Justine!
Y
I want my handbag to fit day and night look equally well, and look good with many styles of outfit.
Weight is the first thing I think when I buy handbag nowadays.. size doesn't matter to me because I can adjust what I need according to the size of the bag but I can't use heavy bags so light weight and stylish bag is a must xx
Loved the video!! ❤Please do one for shoes and jewellery too!
oh that's a good idea... let me think about it!
Yes please!
Yes please 😊 love you Justine. Watching from NH 🇺🇸
Payel Aich great idea! I’d love a jewelry video like this
Me too from Texas!
Since the Antigona is out of my price point, I love Furla or Longchamp for their smooth, structured leather that has just a bit of polish.
Deborah Rapoport there is also a swedish brand called Palmgren which do beautiful bags - they are the same pricerange as the Longschamps but they are generational pieces and in leather
Great clips and info from you, thanks! A bag MUST have the "feet" on the bottom, have a detachable shoulder strap, durable yet simple and elegant hardware, a light color lining, easy and wide opening to access contents inside.
Never really understood why these handbags are priced so high until your video. You are best, Justine.
I explained this to my husband last year and he now has so much appreciation for fashion, he was obsessed with the idea of a birkin. I will show you your video, I think you explained everything so clearly and in a practical view.
As I'm working at a preschool, I just use MK, Oroton and Coach bags for my daily bags. After watching your video, I bought Longchamp Le pliage club in navy blue from QVB, Sydney last weekend. I love it!!!! Thanks for your video, Justine
wooooaaaah this video was so interesting! I've never been that interested in designer fashion....but you might have started something Justine :'D
Same :D
I was waiting for long time for this video, thanks Justine
I like cross body bags with top handle. Something medium sized with nice hardware and supple leather or vegan leather. Compartment for phone , keys , wallet is also nice. How about a video on dupes?
When I was a little girl my mother had a companion woman in her eighties who carried a red crocodile Kelly as as a rule, she gave me a bag to carry my seashell and rock collection in...she told me the name which slipped my mind beyond Hermes and after I spilled apple cider on it I gave it back feeling like I had ruined a nice gift, she offered to get it cleaned but as a ten year old I thought I didn’t need a purse and really just wanted a fanny pack 🤦🏻♀️
Ten years later at age 21 I recognized the same bag in the arms of a woman in New York, I had a pang of nostalgia and immediately realized what I had forsaken so I asked what her Hermes was called since BIRKIN had slipped my mind over the years...oh how she laughed and said honey, you can’t have a birkin just like that! I was devastated and am currently at age 41 searching for a similar bag to the one I had as a kid. This is such an example of how the very wealthy live 😩😩😩
Who just gives a ten year old a birkin to carry ROCKS in?!?
Jane, thats who her name ironically was Jane and though she gave it to me I GAVE IT BACK.
Truthfully I miss it because of the memories and even as a child I recognized the quality.
I’d never sell it, I’d do anything to have that thing back, it was truly perfect, not tacky, the texture was supple, and it carried rocks and shells without any creasing or damage.
No!!!! That hurts.
That's a great story.
I love that you included the Le Pliage - made my day! I have carried on for years because they hold so much, look great, and I don’t have to be too careful with it. I got the larger size to use as a diaper bag.
Thank you Justine! Could you make a video about handbag brands that are good quality but not insanley expensive? I am absolutely willing to pay good money for a well made, beautifully designed handbag, but I don´t care at all about famous designer brands (like in this video) and I really don´t like obviously branded pieces. Just an idea. Keep up the good work!
Picard Lederwaren (Germany), they have a very beautiful Kelly-like bag
this please!
Also, It would be wonderful to find out which handbags are made with fair trade/good ecological practices. :D
The idea of handbag as investment is intriguing. The analogy is not exact, but like stocks, I won't buy the very highest price stock but will look for one the holds its value and has a great return in usage saving money over the long run. My favorite is Brahmin, I like leather, texture, color variation, versatility, internal pockets zipped and unzipped, handles that work for the hand or shoulder. Small cross body versions are great as well when hands need to be free and bags safe.
I like bags with structure and stand up, not hobo, slouch, or formless. Ideally most bags would be large enough to carry a tablet.
Thank you, Justine! As always a great video! I couldn’t see the lipstick! In a pricey handbag I look for good quality and timeless design.
I love your vibe!!! And you're so direct and to the point.
Hi Justine!
I'm not much into fashion because don't find it a necessary since I'm more of a practical one.Until I accidentally watched a video of yours and got me hooked in your content.You got me everytime you talk about how a piece came to be and why things has to look in a certain ways and so.Clearly,you change my views about fashion itself.
And about you question,I' m sure every brand,from an established classic to rookie one,strives to comply to what people needed.Authenticityis a must,but at this point I look for a bag that doesn't demand much of maintenance because at the end of the day,bags should be helping you and not giving you stress.
I love how pasionate you are and your views are the content that I subscribed for.Looking forward fot more vids like these in the future!
I love videos like this! I love the bits of fashion history you put in, I'd love to see more of it
Lipstick or not, this is another great video, love your work!
Even though I cannot afford one of these bags, with this video I could understand why I'm so obsessed with the bag that I've been using for years (only one! Could you believe?). It's similar to the Prada backpack in terms of shape. It was made in Peru and it has a lovely patterns inspired by the indigenous textils. It combines with almost EVERYTHING
I like smaller looking bags that you can find tons of room in! if it looks like it won't fit a water bottle and DOES along with my wallet and other dailies, that's fantastic
Characteristics l look for : lightweight, durable, small- medium size
Nubby Rose we have the same taste
I prefer backpacks, but still durable, with multiple uses, lightweight, with natural fibers
Thank you for the video Justine... Well,what I enjoyed the most was your hand gestures like tapping your nose or when telling price moving your fist.. I loved them 😍..
I just bought a Coach Cassie 19 and I love it! The 3 differentiere straks makes it so versatile and even though it is quite small it has enough space for my purse, keys, notebook, pen, two phones etc. ❤️👌
I'm so grateful that I've come across your channel! So much wonderful information and you are so genuine! Love, love, love 💜
So well researched, as usual! I learned a lot. Thanks so much Justine!
I’m sick but then Justine uploaded my day has gotten better 😊
Get better soon 😘
Justine I love your content! It's so informative, you obviously have a great knowledge of culture and history and you tie it all together so well.
My favorite handbag seems to be a tote. The prices range from $20 to $295, which was my limit. The bag has to hold my mail, an e-reader, a purse organizer with compartments for this and
that, a comb, wallet, water, pepper spray and keys.
An outside zip pocket is a must for me, to keep keys/transit card handy. Inside compartment for phone and other smalls.. I like bags with option to carry as handbag and with additional or adjustable /longer strap for shoulder or cross. Classic style to go with everything, everyday.
Love watching your videos! 😘
FABULOUS video! I really enjoyed hearing the history of each bag you featured! 👍🏼💖💗💖👍🏼
Justine- always love your videos. So informative and thoughtful! Really appreciate the research and content!
Justine! You are fantastic!
I got to say I looooove purses and have had so many from trying to find “my perfect” purse. Your video about how to find quality purses was of great insight and I have examined my purses for quality and have only kept the ones I truly value and has good quality. So, thank you for that!
To answer your question, I look for a purse that the look is timeless, will not be heavy to carry, is of great quality to withstand the pass of time and use and not deteriorate. Plus, it most fit all my basics (wallet, glasses case, small makeup pouch, cell phone, and a zipper to hold things out of sight -house\work keys, pads, check book). 😉
Absolutely fantastic video! Clear, informative, spot-on: merci Justine! Bisous X.
I love that you added the Falabella to your list. I have mine since 2016 and I use it a lot and it still looks brand new. I have no plans to ever sell it (because I love it) but it's nice to see a brand commited to sustainability on the video :)
I love a casual everyday hand bag and a nice structured bag yet simple, nothing over the top or fancy. Loved this video, the styles and history. Thank you!
Light weight, no metal, well made, zipper that really allows the bag to open up wide. Thank you for the great videos. I have learned so much. You are a very classy lady and have a great presentation style.
Great video ❤️
I invest only in Italian brand bags (Cromia, Patrizia Pepe...) because of their quality. The price ranges from 200-500 € and I would never pay more than that for a bag because when I did invest more, the quality wasn’t any better.
I completely agree. What good does it do me to spend thousands on a bag that doesn't hold up better than one in a much lower price range? I personally am not willing to pay for a name, no matter whether it's Chanel or Hermès.
Also Furla and Coccinelle .
Wow! Thanks ladies for these brand mentions, although I already knew of Furla.
🥰
Love your descriptions of the history of the bags. Great video,
Merci Justine for this video, I dreamt that someone would do this and you did! This is so useful, well researched and detailed. Thanks again so much!
You have no idea .. how much I admire you Justine and I'm straight . Thank you for making these videos.
Hahahahahahah "hold my champagne" I had to stop to comment, Justine you're just so witty!!! As always 🌹
I would bet they met in the business class section, so there was most likely champagne involved, no? 😂
@@justineleconte Yes, yes, definitely! Makes perfect sense! That's why it's such a good version of "hold my beer" and so witty :)
I never thought of handbags as an investment piece. Thanks Justine!
They aren’t. I have a long post somewhere where I show why they are not. Even if you hold a birkin and wait for it to appreciate in value, the returns are horrible with the exception of incredibly rare pieces. They are illiquid, depreciating assets that don’t even pay income. Bags are largely sunk costs and if you don’t believe me, check the second had market for Hermes. Celine bags even have worse resale value. You’d need to buy a crocodile or ostrich limited edition birkin and hold it without wearing it to even gain some form of return and if you legitimately take in the taxes, sales costs, etc. You will rarely find a bag that is an investment. The word “investment” in terms of bags is misleading garbage.
@@rimun5235 would u share the link of ur post? I am interested in looking into more details. thanks!
They are - it’s like certain sneakers
Such great info always - love your work!
I love the stories associated with these bags! Merci, Justine for giving us a little piece of history ❤️🥰
I love watching your fashion videos!!! I am so happy you posted today!!2
Liked even before playing... Always worth the thumbs up Justine!
Ok now focusing on the vid. Amazing content as always, love it! Thanks Justine ❤️❤️❤️
I enjoy binge watching your videos while sitting at my desk...procrastinating from work. I enjoy them so much. Congrats on 600K subscribers!
After watching this video, it really makes me think more and more abour how Jeffree Star just casually bought a Birkin just to match the colour of his new car lol
He bought many birkins before even with the himalayan crocodile leather! Which is very rare
Girl has a whole vault of Birkins haha
His was fake.
Jeffree Star is an excellent business person. He knows how to invest his money. Perhaps this comes from his poor background, as in, maybe one may need a back up? I feel his collection of bags to be an investment, as his real estate purchases. He keeps his bags in a vault because he has recognized, and has stated their value over time. I salute him as a business person, and I love his personality. He is most certainly, one to learn from, in more ways than one. Love how he says, Pray, Jesus take the wheel, and pray for me. I adore him.
He has so much money that I guess he has Hermes in speedial🙈
Justine, always wanted to know about this topic. Loved knowing about the history of each of the handbags. I usually like clean lines, durable. See you next time!!😊❤
The perfect handbag would be large enough to hold wallet ,glasses keys etc , but not too big. Light weight would be a must , classic style & color & lastly would be stylish for age 20 to seniors . Great video👍
I love that this video proved that my taste in bags has always been so ahead of it's time 🤣 all of my handbags (off brand, mostly) are styles you mention here and I'm very proud of myself
I always come back to this video
Lovely video justine. Very informative🌹💕💕💕 From a fan in ireland.
For me it's shape colour. and practicality
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Fashion history is so interesting.
Very informative video, thank you so much for this. Happy to have seen the Speedy on this list, for it was my first designer handbag purchase. Definitely a classic. This video gives me some ideas for the next bag I might want to get! 👜
You have so much knowledge Justine …I love your videos because I always learn something
I LOVE the first handbag (well, who doesnt)
As for what i need in a bag ... for work - comfort, being water-tight, enough room for a laptop, books and school stuff (my daily bag is a Fjällräven - well, yes, trekking bag .. not the height of fashion )
For going out - I do prefer a shoulder strap and at least enough room for the usual necessities + room for a small folding umbrella (for that i have a Kirsuberjatréð handbag)
One of the biggest essentials for me is that it needs to have enough of a drop to comfortably go over my shoulder. Especially with a winter jacket (Canada in the winter type).
Brilliant video Justine! Merci.
If I got one of these bags, I'd sent it swiftly to you for all the very useful, helpful information you have given. Thank you so much.
What I look for in a purse:
One I can open mostly with one hand while I am wearing it.
One I can see clearly inside, lighter fabric.
More than one season.
Ages well, not trendy.
Color that goes well with most things.
Style that goes with my clothes/style.
Pockets or/and barriers, not a big jumble that I am searching through.
Not too heavy or with too much hardwear.
You expressed it very well. That Kelly bag is so impractical to open or close.I've had many bags that meet the criteria you just described but they were "not" slouchy nothings. Many local designers make smart and practical bags -made of leather - that's worth exploring. And they don't cost an arm and a leg.
I love how everything you film is so well informed. And I guessed all the bags that could be in the video before watching, so I'm officially Justine Leconte audience haha, it tok 3 years. Best regards!
hahaha it rather means that you have a good sense of taste and timeless style :-D If you can recognize an investment piece by yourself, you should start investing!
I love hearing you say creme de la creme and Hermes.... :-D
An ideal everyday handbag would stand on its own (not slouch), hold the width of at least two books so that it can fit items beyond just phone, keys and wallet.. and not get dirty on the outside so easily.
What an informative video. Thanks for the history lesson
Love outside and inside pockets and hinged handles on a satchel type bag.
Hey Justine. I have been following your channel for a while now and while I like all your videos, this one was specifically awesome . So informative and well rounded up . I have been wanting to invest in a luxury handbag for a while now and this video couldn't have been better timed . Thank you for the video . Love from India .
Affordable, stylish and comfortable
Oh, and pockets + compartments
Justine,you are really knowledgeable. Merci❤️
This is the most informative video on handbags I have seen, you gave real actual information
Love when you do these types of videos! Can you please do a video on luxury shoes (heels and flats)? What are your thoughts on the Manolo Blahnik Hangisi's?
Great video Justine. Love your hair like that. You look very pretty!😍💖
Thank you! Smart, ethical, well researched, and charming fashion commentary.
Thanks for this fashion history lesson! Love it! When I shop for bags, I’m looking for function and style. Although I love many of the bags you listed, I want to make sure each of my designer bags has its own function so I am never not using the bag to the fullest. Next on my shopping list is a Chanel bag but I am trying to decide on a specific size!
