    I appreciate your comments about luxury vs. affordable. I actually recently reviewed all of my subscriptions because I'm just a regular, middle class Black woman, and unfollowed content creators who only show luxury hauls or OODs, GRWM - with a little affordable thrown in - because that just isn't me - or most of the nation or world really. I like many of the outfits for inspiration, but I'm out here working my tail off trying to enjoy life, enjoy spending time with family and friends, travel when I can, help others, and leave a legacy for my kids. I'll probably never buy a $1,000 or more purse, or a pair of jeans for $500 - and that's perfectly fine for me. I love my life and purchasing luxury designers just isn't a part of it. That said, I kept your subscription because I appreciate how candid you are, I appreciate when you clearly show that you're re-wearing or re-using items you have, I appreciate when you show multiple ways to wear pieces (that part is fantastic), and I like your style. You're not "cookie-cutter" (ha ha), and I appreciate that too. I especially enjoyed when you shared the history of your rings, because I'm a big "ring" person, and have been for a long time. Sorry this is so long... I hope Carlos's mom is recovering well, and I wish you and your business success, well-being and contentment.

      So well said. I’ve had a declutter of my influencers for the same reason and as I’m based in the UK trying to support and hear from ‘local’ influencers. But I have kept a few favourites like yourself and those who kept me going through the pandemic.

    I love your content. I’ve learned so much about styling. My budget does not allow me to buy luxury items but I enjoy the challenge in “getting the look for less”. It works for me!

  • @TheSecretninja2001
    @TheSecretninja2001 3 місяці тому +15

    I feel like there's people using the terms "not relatable" or "too good", etc. as a way to humble people (influencers in this case) and I personally don't appreciate that. Your channel is your channel and what you feature is what you feature. I love seeing luxury content, especially from Black creators especially especially from Black women creators. I don't think you have to be relatable to everyone and that's such a weird prerequisite for a viewer to have in order to enjoy someone's content. I follow a wide variety of people of varying ages and stages of life because I enjoy getting a little peek into how different people live their life. Just because someone can't relate to luxury content doesn't mean the content creator thinks they're "too good" for their subscribers. Anyway, I hope the rest of the day and week went better for you and I just want you to know I really really enjoy your content and I'm so happy I stumbled upon you.🥰

      All of this ... ALL OF THIS!!! YES !! and thank you so much for saying this. There is a certain communication happening throughout the platforms that is placing a certain shame or blockage against poc/black woman creators growing on their platforms, lifestyle, and experiences. I hesitate to do hauls these days because I rather folks be inspired to recreate a vibe or just enjoy the education or news surrounding fashion. However knowing that community members like you exist, it confirms and pushes me to continue to show what excites me.

    Girll, you dont have to explain your content to these people! Your content is all information. I can't afford half the things you talk about, but i love knowing about what's out there, in the luxury world.
    I dont buy luxury clothing so much because i am a curve woman, and that fluctuates. I do buy high-end accessories, 😊. Dylanlex has my bank account in a choke hold😂😂😂😂.

    I feel like you get style ideas and then you make it your own at the price point you can afford.I love watching the fashion week shows,but I know I can't afford the clothes.Personally,I don't do dupes,but copy the style that I like! I also,wheel and deal on second hand sites and get great deals.I just found a $1000.Balmain Paris skirt at goodwill for $5.50.

    I subscribed and I can’t afford a Hermes cuff YET. I subscribed because I love what you share and HOW you share. It’s authentic, it’s honest, and lots of times hella funny. Your style is like no other (you are literally in a lane of your own)… it’s personal to you and our goal as fashion girlies should be to have our own style and your channel/style should serve as inspiration. For instance i might not get a Hermes ear cuff but might try to a cheaper one myself. It’s also kind of you to share suggestions but we as your subscribers can go and google ourselves! Keep doing you. I hope Carlos and his mom are well!

    I listen and look at your videos because of your personality. I am a hard-working, older lady and I can’t afford luxury, but I enjoy watching other people talk about it try it on and just want to know what’s going on in that fashion world. I hope Carlos‘s mother Gets better and I know it’s in my age falling is scary thing. But you never know how it’s gonna turn out and we’ll just pray that everything goes well.

I don’t understand why anyone would criticize what you showcase on YOUR channel. We absolutely deserve nice things, and some may struggle to accept that, so, they project their own insecurities. While I'm not yet where I aspire to be financially to indulge in luxury shopping, I truly appreciate creators like you who provide insight and inspiration.🤎

    Carolyn, I’m so sorry to hear about Carlos’ mother. I’ll be praying for her and for you and Carlos as well.
    PLEASE continue to create around luxury items. I live in an area of Virginia that does not have luxury clothing stores. It’s the area Jenee just moved from. So, I truly enjoy seeing luxury items. Watching content creators remind me of my youth when I would anxiously await my fashion magazines. It’s inspiring and though I may not be able to always afford the luxury presented, I always thoroughly enjoy the pleasure of watching!
    This channel may not be for everyone. So, perhaps those people should look for other channels. I don’t typically follow people who consistently do Target hauls. But, I know that there is an audience for It. I wish you all the best!

      I didnt realize the there are channels that do Target hauls... yesterday I was going through UA-cam and saw channels for ASMR (for sounds and whispering ) and I gasped when I saw these folks had 100's and 1000's of followers! Personally those videos itch but there is a tribe for everything. Im glad this is my tribe :)

Your input with fashion is noted. Everyone that view your channel may not be able to purchase the luxury pieces that you share,but I see it as learning what’s out there and the best places to shop. I do love fine pieces and you help showcase this for my daughters also. I encourage them to plan and set goals for what they want. Praying for Carlos mother.

    there’s a distinct difference between someone who enjoys/can afford to acquire luxury product ad nauseum (or any price point for that matter) + someone who a) has their sense of style down pat b) intentionally curates their wardrobe - at any price point + c) shares in a way that doesn’t feel crass or gauche.
    i wish that more people could see past brand names/logos to understand the crux of the messaging - that’s it’s about *how* you style + wear the pieces in your wardrobe + not *just* about the price tag.

Please give stylist some grace when they are under the weather… trust me because I am a retired one and we have a difficult time getting better mostly because we are thinking about how backed up we will be if it not soon 😢 life be lifin! I used that term before in a comment about I wasn’t your demographic only because I am old and can’t wear the beautiful high heals anymore however I watch to see all of the lovely things and people of NYC! I was born there and do miss the excitement of it all! Folks watch for a variety of reasons and don’t apologize for loving luxury… I love it too😊 and I did go to Target to check out the DVF… I will stick to her luxury line 😊 we like what we like and that’s all good 😊and I hope that you all stay well 🙏

      Hi my dear!!! yes I had to visit them due to the blueberry lemon poundcake being on the menu!! I didn't regret not one bite! And also the demographic comment was geared more to the luxury / financial aspect. I know my Cookies come in all forms, from all backgrounds, and ages. I do feel the more experienced side of the cookie jar understands me in a way I don't feel I need to explain myself and I love that for me LOL! and yes life be lifing and service providers (especially in beauty) are not given enough grace and it is crazy to me. They are our stylist, therapist, friends, and advisors! they need more love and grace!

I've watched probably all your vlogs and you have a mixture of high, low and thrift. I haven't seen you vlogging only on luxury. I respect your response. There are so many other channels to choose from. You shouldn't have to remind us that we are great and what we deserve. Viewres should Watch the videos for inspiration, giggles, and new items and to be your best self. I love luxury will I buy a Hermès bag probably not.

I'm trying my best to promote the inspiration part of creating content. I have a few ideas on how to shed more light on it. but I appreciate your support and love and thank you MY HAIR feels amazing these days lol!! besides shedding from needing a hair cut lol

    Carolyn I really enjoy your vlogs and meant to respond earlier on the Oxford shirt thing & thing is an Oxford shirt has it's own look from back in my day and I'm old enough to be your mother😊...All button downs are not oxfords! A button down is just as you described initially.
    Some say button down and some say button up, yet either way makes the point of describing the type of shirt. So indeed don't allow the fashion police to arrest your vibe & description flow❤.
    Continued prayers for Carlos' Mom & looking forward to seeing more on both your business growth.🙌🏿✨

    • @ITSCAROLYNGRAY
      @ITSCAROLYNGRAY  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you my dear. Even if I go into a menswear store for a client and ask for an Oxford shirt the younger associate will look at me sideways as if I said something strange. Or if I ask for libation menu for the table, a server will be confused. There is certain terminology that is classic but a lot of my generation or later have no clue about it. So yes I do use all three to describe the shirt lol! Thank you for letting me rant .

    The "too good" comments feel racialized to me, like the mental associations people have about who they feel attached to aren't mapping correctly to reality. (To me, that is the kind of comment that can only come from *some* level of emotional investment because why would say something if you didn't care).
    Recently, I've been watching more "luxury fashion" people, but as someone who started their fashion journey thrifting

As well clothes for regular working people. However their materials were high quality!!! They are not with us anymore nor their business in Mexico 🇲🇽. I am their 63 year great granddaughter, and granddaughter. I was born in Texas , and live in West Virginia. I love fashion ❤ …. Don’t worry about loving luxury fashion.
