    Don’t get rid of any of them ! They are all so unique and you will want them later on in life . And by then the price will go up even more . Keep them ❤

      I have never been concerned about if others have fakes and replicas, unless they are trying to pass them off as real to sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that horrible as they push brands to be innovative (the classic monogram print was created in part to fight off counterfeiting) which benefits us as design lovers.I guess I can understand folks not wanting the same bag as others, but if it’s a good *jklux* it would make sense that more people would want it, authentic or not

      I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *jklux* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.

    Def don’t count the neverfull as a bag and just keep it. The mini heart and micro Kelly are technically slgs so I wouldn’t count those as handbags. I’m okay with duplicates if I love the bag! I def have duplicates. Good luck and do whatever makes you happy as always 💕have a great day!

      I never care if other people have fakes and replicas unless they are trying to pass them off as genuine and sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that scary because they drive brand innovation (part of the purpose of classic monogram prints is to combat counterfeiting), which is good for us as design lovers. I guess I can understand people not wanting the same package as everyone else, but if it's a good *hotdups* whether authentic or not, it makes sense that more people would want it.

      I love a good *hotdups* because it helps me decide if I want to buy the real thing or NOT." That part right there. That's IT. I feel like people stigmatize dupes but for me, I pause on large purchases that are trendy or when I feel the overconsumption mania setting in FOR ME. (It's something I struggle with LOL! I'm easily convinced to buy things I don't wear or use. They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!

    I have a neverful that a client bought me for Mother’s Day when I was a poor struggling single mom. I never use it but I can’t get ever get rid of it because it was the nicest most unexpected gift I’ve ever received. She knew I wasn’t going to be given a Mother’s Day gift that year. I will keep it forever. I do try to use it every Mother’s Day.

      The variety of textures in the *jklux* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

    Thank you for sharing Maddie. POV: personally I would let the NF go, it will open up new emotions, with the Birkin, the mini heart feels more generic but the tweed is a real vibe, Hermès Kelly over Chanel Kelly, then I would keep the green Kelly. I reset my collection every 18 months-it’s brutal but it’s opened up so much style wise and emotionally. Best of Luck ☘️

    My opinion is to keep the Neverfull, it’s timeless and you might need a nice tote at some point in life. In terms of the mini bags, I’d keep the tweed and sell the heart. You’ll probably get a higher resale value on the heart and a cutesy novelty bag ages. When you’re 50 you may feel it’s too young, but a tweed Chanel bag is ageless & timeless. You can carry it when you’re 80 and it will still be perfect. Just my personal opinion.

    Honestly, I would think that if you have the slightest doubt in selling the bags, don't do it... because firstly, it's not like you need the money... and then don't ever feel guilty for owning things that you deserved ❤❤❤. They make a great story for the future...

    I would vote for getting rid of the neverfull - yes it’s sentimental but you still have the memories and take some pictures of it instead of keeping it in a crowded closet. I would also keep the heart and get rid of the mini tweed Kelly - the heart is quite special. I would still keep the pink Chanel Kelly - it just seems to be so much your style, perfect color and size. I think the green one is less your style than the pink one.

    dont count the neverfull. i have one and the on the go tote. i don't count them as they are my work bags. omg these all are hard decisions! but I'm here to enable, keep the pink chanel kelly. between the mini bags, I want to say sell both and that's because I don't do mini bags. but I know if you sold them you would hate yourself for it. but if you had too, i vote for the chanel tweed kelly because the heart one you can't replace as easily and if you do it'll be expensive versus i have a feeling the chanel tweed kelly you would be able to at a reasonable price.

    I would get rid of the mini Chanel bags. I get that they serve an occasional purpose and are supposedly iconic but they look ridiculous when worn on even an average sized woman. The only time I’ve seen them look good is on a petite woman probably because they are child sized bags.
