This is how luxury designer brands manipulate you into buying over-priced, over-rated luxury items. Let's break the toxic cycle and discover our true personal style without the designer labels. Let's empower each other to be better than the labels we wear on our bodies xx
Its very understandable that family life shifts priorities. But not everyone are interested in brands because of the perception of others. There are some objects that simply is not produced elsewhere for cheaper in legal manners. Some people rather have a beautiful bags than jewelry.
i'm not sure why it is so frowned upon to genuinely share a brand that i use and love? it is part of my job as a mindful content creator. i would hope you don't get the same judgement for the work you do, Lorelei.
I have max mara classic coats and the first one purchased in the 1980s. I still have them. All of my purchases are intentional and I’ve had them for years. I’ve been wearing my ‘uniform’ forever!,
thank you for sharing! i agree that some luxury items can be great investments if they are well-made and made of premium materials. being intentional is so important :)
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the MoMacoco leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
11:10 definitely resonated with me. I live in Miami and everyone and their grandma is wearing labels 😂 even people that don’t have basic necessities are wearing labels. How are we affording it? 🤔 😅 it really makes you not want to buy since it’s not as exclusive anymore 🤷🏻♀️
The snippet of the girl crying because she bought herself a birkin was…..sad. It’s ad because there’s so much to life than material possessions, and there’s more to life than a handbag. When I bought my first Chanel, I was proud of myself too but I got over it after 5mins. It’s not that deep, truly especially it’s not worth crying from happiness. Tf.
i think you missed the point of the video. discussing the toxic influence of social media, and the facade that is creating a mental health crisis in our society has nothing to do with me buying a Birkin that I could easily afford to buy and then deciding to sell it because it didn't suit my lifestyle...and yes, i think the mental health crisis is that deep and we need to discuss it.

Ignore the comments about Lilysilk. They will judge you if you are materialistic and they will judge if you are not. You can’t win!
a very small portion of this video was a paid partnership (it is always disclosed in my description). there is nothing wrong with a genuine integration of a brand i genuinely love and use myself. it is part of my job as a mindful content creator and i only share brands that align with my most authentic self. it doesn't take away from the message of this video and it's saddens me that you have degraded all of the work i put into the video for an "Ad"
Wish you could focus more on positive content rather than constantly focusing on how manipulative fashion industry is. I’d rather see the ‘change’ you experienced and come here for that content.
I can’t imagine a mother lounging in a cashmere set. Or wearing something that delicates in an airplane. Sorry but this all seems like an intro to your new niche “quiet luxury”.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *gtdupe* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Als jij dat zo voelt, is prima! Maar je overdrijft!! En dan niet alleen, je kocht toch alles 2e hands?! Je hebt nooit de volle prijzen betaald voor de designer spullen! En waarom draag je dan nog de Cartier love armband en de van Cleef? Dus hou alsjeblieft op!!! Het enige waar je gelijk in hebt: Is dat we worden opgelicht met de prijzen die ze vragen, voor de matige kwaliteit!!! Maar verder niet!!! Ik draag dingen die ik mooi vind en duurzaam zijn!! En dat is Chanel vintage ook, want het kan worden overgedragen op generaties. En sorry, dat ik dit zeg!! Maar sinds je van garderobe bent veranderd. Vind ik je style van kleding ook niet meer mooi. Maar goed, jij vind het prachtig. Dus volg ik niet meer, en ook niet wat je de laatste tijden uitkraamt op je video!!!
i have purchased many of my luxury items directly from luxury boutiques so I'm really not sure where you are getting your information from. i discussed the sentimental reason behind my VCA and Cartier bracelets in a previous video. I understand style is very subjective and everyone should do what makes them happy, but please don't release your anger on others because you feel personally triggered for personal reasons. wishing you well.
Or, or, or I could just wear dupes and reps of styles I enjoy mixed with thrifted items and fast fashion pieces to create my desired aesthetic. You can still look fabulous with a Balenciaga purse and shoes, even if it's not official.
hmm i never said i am in debt...i prioritize investing my money wisely through diversification and i spend much less than i can afford. sadly, this is not the case for many which is why i am trying to raise awareness about the impact social media and society in general has on our spending decisions. please don't make assumptions if you don't have the facts.
Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection *gtdupe* other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think i watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals
If you want to match different clothes, you may even need several bags with different styles or colors. You don’t want the bags to not match the clothes you are wearing, right? *gtdupe*
When I started collecting handbags, my goal was to have a luxury handbag collection of 50. Over the years, I’ve been amazed at how much the MoMcoco has changed my perspective on how many bags I really need, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised with every bag I’ve purchased.

Of course there is a lilysilk advertisement!
Seriously. I have not been happy with the longevity of the lilysilk sweaters I purchased
@katerinaschenke819 The chunky lilysilk Knit is $600 Aud! Way overpriced.
By the way can you do an updated video of your current bags,and shoe collection that you stayed with that works currently perfect with your closet.
thanks for the suggestion! i will find a way to show my updated closet in an upcoming video for sure xx
@@NikiSky what are those handbags? looks simple but classy. Thanks
When you preach, “don’t care what people think” and then add snarky comments here, it’s obvious you haven’t really achieved your desired outlook.
You lost me with the Lilysilk ad
Yes
Agree 😢
i'm not sure why it is so frowned upon to genuinely share a brand that i use and love? it is part of my job as a mindful content creator. i would hope you don't get the same judgement for the work you do, Lorelei.
I don’t mind that it’s Lilysilk but the beige pants are $400 😮
The lilysilk ad destroyed everything 🫠
Yes. I cannot stand the name even 🙁
Lilysilk is now so overpriced. Not worth right now
FINALLY ...someone (you) said what has been needed to be said. THANK YOU so much for clearing the air!!!
I get it so don’t buy, unless it’s Lilly S ohhh okay
hmm..seems like you don't get it. sounds like you missed the entire message of the video..
I agree with you 100% I been stopped buying luxury . And now I have more more clothes and bags that I love that are under $50
Don't let ANYONE dictate how you should dress or feel. Do what's right for you. Not even Nikii
Lily silk is luxury for me🤔
Finally... if I started a video series about my path, the very same about 2016 i would have been unnoticed...
I'm always 10yrs ahead
People are like sheep. You're stepping out from the crowd and doing what's right for you. I agree with what you've shared and I support it!
thank you for the support xx
you’re literally my comfort person i love you *gtdupe* !
Uh, Lilly Silk. new sponsor. Respect?
I have max mara classic coats and the first one purchased in the 1980s. I still have them. All of my purchases are intentional and I’ve had them for years. I’ve been wearing my ‘uniform’ forever!,
thank you for sharing! i agree that some luxury items can be great investments if they are well-made and made of premium materials. being intentional is so important :)
Thank you for this! I have so much more respect for you 🤍
thank you for your kind words and for watching
Oh dear.
This feels like a performance instead of a discussion. But great content!
Totally
Because it is. People called her card from the first video. This is a rebrand.
LILYSILK. . . happened
“empowered and liberated from this matrix” Spot on 💯 %!
thanks Melinda, I'm so glad you enjoyed xx
Ty! So proud of you. I'm right with you on this. You looked so beautiful and happy in these pieces.
thank you so much for your kind words!
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the MoMacoco leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
You look stunning in everything ❤ especially the blue maxi skirt 😮💨
Would luv to see styling video on more affordable clothing thks
thank you for the request xx

💯 doesn't exclusive anymore
thank you for sharing!
This is so great!! what do you use to edit? 🤌🏾
thank you so much! i am very fortunate to have a very talented video editor
Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for watching!
What a fantastic video. Everything you said is so true ❤❤
i am flattered you think so, thank you for the kind words xx
I used to find you petty for your obsession with luxury items. I respect your growth and honesty now ❤
absolutely love this video editing!
The variety of textures inside the *gtdupe* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there’s something for you
The snippet of the girl crying because she bought herself a birkin was…..sad. It’s ad because there’s so much to life than material possessions, and there’s more to life than a handbag. When I bought my first Chanel, I was proud of myself too but I got over it after 5mins. It’s not that deep, truly especially it’s not worth crying from happiness. Tf.
When society falls apart, friendship is lost, love with men is gone in the hookup culture. A sad comfort is beautiful things then
i think you missed the point of the video. discussing the toxic influence of social media, and the facade that is creating a mental health crisis in our society has nothing to do with me buying a Birkin that I could easily afford to buy and then deciding to sell it because it didn't suit my lifestyle...and yes, i think the mental health crisis is that deep and we need to discuss it.

Well done!!😊
thank you!
On what occasion would you wear these bags? I love your collection. Like I love my MoMcoco
It is ok to have an ad, but when that ad is half of a video, it is not ok. I lost around 8 min of my life. Sorry.
Interestingly, that in a *gtdupe* , the inside sewing at the handles is more carefully made (leather is not so frayed), than in the original one.
Niki where are the bags from? Love the grey one.
thank you! the grey one is from a small brand on Instagram called @n.s.bags xx
@@NikiSky thank you! Checking them out now 😊
So inspiring❤
i'm glad you think so xx
Love your new content ❤
i am so happy to hear that xx
All dat *gtdupe* bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous
Bravo ! Well said 👏👏👏👏
i'm glad you think so!
All ready knew everything
so this is an ad
Agree

thank you for watching xx
YESSSSSS! Preach Sista!!!!!!
thanks for watching xx
I’m here for it!
thank you for the support xx
Wish you could focus more on positive content rather than constantly focusing on how manipulative fashion industry is.
I’d rather see the ‘change’ you experienced and come here for that content.
Where are the woven bags from? Especially like the beigey brown one!
Where are the white ballet-like flats from as well as the tan and black pleated bags from? I cant see those linked. Thank you!
the white ballet flats are from Zimmermann and the woven bags are from an Instagram store called @n.s.bags
I love this video
Where do I get the bag u wore with the bronze halter lily silk dress?
it's from the brand Kara Kara, i got it a few years ago so sadly it is not available but they have similar styles on SSENSE
I wear designer and I am not superficial but I understand what you are trying to say
Absolutely love the coat you are wearing! and the *gtdupe* bag !
Very well said 👏🏼🫶🏼
thank you for watching xx
Niki, you look sad. Are you really okay?
I am so happy for you 🙂
Totally agree
i'm glad you enjoyed xx
I like you before but I love you now! I admire you Niki! 🎉❤ And I am obsessed with Lilysilk so much😅
thank you for the kind words, and yes, I agree Lilysilk is great!
great video
im glad you think so!
No, not imagen?! I have spent thousands of dollars on luxury items but no more….

So much spam in the comments

Huge Gold bars keep it in the bank . diamond wear it. Then it is luxury life style
❤❤❤
What happen is you got yourself in debt? And that’s what happen to a lot of influencers spend way more then u guys could afford!!!
hmm i never said i am in debt...i prioritize investing my money wisely through diversification and i spend much less than i can afford. sadly, this is not the case for many which is why i am trying to raise awareness about the impact social media and society in general has on our spending decisions. please don't make assumptions if you don't have the facts.

I have always loved MoMcoco unique and fun handbag collection
To much Blabla
feel free to click off and watch something less purposeful
I love you more now.❤
Rat race 😂
❤❤
Lilysilk? No thanks
You look so sad

If I had $1,000, I would choose to spend $100 on a bag to store my $900 instead of spending $1,000 on an empty bag *gtdupe*
That's a great quote
you’re literally my comfort person i love you *gtdupe* !
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *gtdupe* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
All dat *gtdupe* bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous
