    I agree about the shoes - I am a shoe girl but I can still buy a good quality $200 pair of shoes which will wear just as well as the $1,000 pair of shoes. Tiny bags are a little ridicilous and I can’t stand shearling (awful trend 😅)..totally agree about suitcases too…I don’t agree about the WOC - a lot of people prefer to go light when shopping and a WOC is perfect for that…

    I agree with all of your comments, except for the shoes. I find luxury shoes last a long time and wear well (I put a rubber sole on them), but you need to find ones you feel comfortable in and that suit your lifestyle to get your money's worth. I wear my Ferragamo, Roger Vivier an Manolos all the time and they've held up so well. I don't wear my louboutins much either but that has more to do with the higher heel height not really suiting my lifestyle. Totally agree with the rest of this video.

      I agree with you Jenny.
      I have my shoes for many years. Fit and comfort as important are factors as well as pretty. (We all have at least one pair of “posing shoes” in our collections)
      But, I also maintain them as you do. I was taught by my Grandmother, to use a damp paper towel to wipe the bottoms before putting away~
      Shall I mention I’m just past 60😉
      I’m now selling my collection of
      Stilettos and extremely high shoes…. Time to pass on what no longer suits my lifestyle.
      Please believe I will keep some heels- just not ALL what I own.
      I have my first Manolos from the mid 1970’s~also Charles Jourdan and YSL. Still stunning to my eye.

    Even for designer shoes there are a wide range of price points, and most of them go on sale eventually so personally i would never buy designer shoes full price. Most of the ones I own (jimmy choo, ferragamo etc) fall at around the £200-300 mark, and they are all great quality and you can really tell the difference from high street brands.

    I have to disagree on the WOC :D it's a great little bag to go for a dinner date. Cards, Money, Keys, lipstick and a mask all fits comfortably. Totally agree on the super mini bags though. They're useless. Luxury brand shoes are a waste of money. Get a good quality mid priced shoe you can re-sole and that will last you for years. Agreed on the H click, it's SO overdone. Phone case also waste of money yes. Luxury luggage is a pain in the ass and just paints a bullseye on your back for getting robbed. It's just not worth it.

    You have mentioned all the things we really should avoid!

    The only “WOC” that’s worth it is the YSL large envelope . You can actually fit your phone, rollerball perfume, lip chap , and keys in it.

    As for the designer shoes. I used to by Manolo’s. I always had to take them to a cobbler to have rubber put on the soles so they wouldn’t become trash in a few months. Not worth it. Great video Steph 👍🏻

    I agree with most of your items! shearling shoes especially! I do own a Chanel WOC (from many years ago that I gave to my daughter) and LV luggage. I would never check any luggage and use most of my designer luggage on car trips. Not sure I would buy it now at these prices. There are so many good travel pieces that are more useful. The keepall is definitely too heavy for me to carry too. Too bulky but whenever I see someone using theirs at the airport I think I should use it, I have a rolling bag that has traveled the world with me, so I have gotten the cost per wear down but again, I bought it years ago so it was a good purchase (Used it so much they had to replace the wheels!).

    I think if you buy luxury items you shouldn’t worry about wear and tear. If you worry about wear and tear then don’t buy luxury. I only agree with you on the luggage point. No point in attracting attention when you can’t have the luggage with you all the time. But shoes or handbags , you should buy what you can afford and actually use. Luxury items do last longer ( not all brands but many do) so you get your money’s worth. I only buy what I know I’ll use. Always classic.

But it’s roomy enough to fit other things just not a wallet (duh, because it’s a woc) but it can hold a phone, lipstick, and something else small. So it’s the bag I use when I don’t need to carry a lot and want a small bag that won’t get in the way

    Generally I agree with you, but not on the shoes. I have bought MANY luxury shoes over the years, and I find they last a long time if you properly care for them (I still have shoes that look great twenty years later). This is coming from someone who lives in NYC and walks everywhere. I've learned that you also have to wear the proper shoe for the proper occasion (so only rain boots or shoes in the rain, for example). In my opinion, good shoes make the outfit. Most people don't know how to style their outfits head to toe. A nice bag with ugly shoes just looks terrible in my opinion.

    • @Handbagholic
      @Handbagholic  2 роки тому

      Thanks for sharing Hester, yes I do agree they can make an outfit. My Louboutins look amazing - they make so many looks look great, I just find them SO painful and hard to walk in + knowing they're wearing as I walk. I think the LV boots are better since they're more 'weather proof'. Maybe some investment boots / shoes that you really love. I know I definitely won't be becoming a designer shoe collector though, I much prefer bags.

I keep them like new for decoration, using a couple of time occasionally. However I have a pair of Gucci pumps that are so comfortable to wear all day in office or on a date. The leather is thin and soft and very roomy the top part where cover the toes area. Look at their shoes at boutique, specially pumps and you know what I am talking about. Louboutine is well known for pain shoes maker.

    I love my mini pochette when I go out with my boyfriend to a club. I don’t need to carry much. Being a mom of 6, 3 at home I have to carry big bags all the time for their things and mine. It’s kind of exciting to use my small bags when I go out on date night.

    People who buy designer items need to stop thinking their items are made with the greatest quality. Some luxury brands come out with nylon stuff.. you are gonna pay $$$$ for NYLON and PVC PLASTIC? No matter how cute it is.. quality matters much more than the looks.

    I AGREE w/you on all the items except 1) luxury designer travel duffel which I don’t have yet but would consider one (rather low on my list though)…they would be great for long weekends/road trips or a carry-on on the plane ONLY. Though agree that one don’t want to be carrying it around a lot b/c it can get heavy. Would NEVER consider luxury checked baggage as, once checked, they just get bashed around. 2) Have to disagree w/you on fine, luxury shoes though: I’ve found that my high-quality, well-made (& yes, more expensive shoes) last me much longer than cheap shoes which fall apart very quickly. I take my shoes to the shoe repair regularly, wear them HEAVILY, & “until they’re dead.” Based upon cost per wear, they’re a MUCH better value than any handbag I own b/c they receive so much hard wear. That’s “just me”….I’m quite picky w/shoes.

The clic clacs do nothing for me I don’t find them appealing in the slightest and as for tiny bags (I’m thinking jacquemas here), one word…. WHY!?!?

I've accepted I don't have the patience for a woc! They are beautiful though if they work for you.

    All wonderful points, though I'd add something to your point about shoes - it really depends on the brand and what they are designing for. I would never buy a Louboutin shoe because that brand is all about the looks and not comfort or functionality, IMO. On the other hand, Gianvito Rossi makes luxuriously beautiful, long lasting shoes that have been kinder to my troubled feet than any high street heel ever has. Jimmy Choo also has been wonderful to my feet (though the natural leather sole is a lot less practical). Just my 2 cents.

    Couldn’t agree more on all your points. The micro bags, Stupid! I’m a type 1 diabetic so need to carry needles and blood test kits etc. rule of thumb if it doesn’t fit that or my phone it’s a no. Smallest bags I own are the pochette Felicie , a YSL woc and the mini lady Dior which carry all that and more. Also if you want the big bag, save for it, don’t buy the smaller item ie the WOC as you get impatient, keep saving to get to your goal or you will regret it with the price increases moving it more and more out of reach!

    I keep debating whether to get a keepall 45 or not, I guess not 🥺 idk. But, I agree with Jacquemus, designer shoes and Jewelry. Glad I passed on Gucci loafers and bought a look alike from Nordstrom Rack. Also, never buy designer Jewelry because not worth the amount of money (not real) and not great investment, instead buy real gold, diamond or sterling silver. I have some distance relatives in the gold bussiness and the re-sell value is equal or worth more in the long run.

    I always feel like stuff like sneakers and other items which brands are known for, should be what we get from those brands, for example I much rather would get a sneaker from Adidas/Nike than from Dior, because at the end of the day Dior is known for clothing/bags/perfumes/jewellery, how do we know if Dior is buying patents from established shoe manufacturers ? I'm not going to buy underwear from Dior (if they even offer that) as compared to Calvin Klein.
