    I've never heard those specific critiques of the Constance, nor have I had those issues myself, but we also have very different body types so perhaps that explains it. I think the Constance is actually prettier than the birkin and since it's often harder to obtain, I get more attention when I wear it versus my birkins, so it also brings me a different feeling, but I like both!

    • @myclosettravels
      @myclosettravels  3 роки тому +2

    I like Constance because in a way it’s not as recognizable as Birkin. When I go to the mall or run quick errands, it’s nice to have something cross body. I noticed that I do not use Kelly as much for daily because of sellier style. I love oran sandals as well!

    Your Clic H bracelet matches your hair! But yeah, I feel you on them...I have two and don't wear them much. I don't have many Hermes items, but my best would be the Evelyne bag and the worst would be my H belt (I think it's called the Constance belt). The sizing on mine with the holes is weird and I just don't like how low it sits. I wish I had gotten another hole/smaller size for my waist, but I bought it for jeans. Barely wear it.

    • @myclosettravels
      @myclosettravels  3 роки тому +1

      Love hearing that your best item is the Evelyn 💕 Would you be able to ask a cobbler to add a hole for your belt if you think it would work better for you now? They even sell the leather hole punchers online - I've made my own holes to my Chanel belt so I can wear it on the waist and hips 😉

  • @KawanasStyle
    @KawanasStyle 3 роки тому +2

    Very interesting. I agree with you on many points. I agree that at many of these price points especially Hermes, you should not have to limit yourself to the season that you can wear it. I understand having bags that may be preferred to carry seasonally, but shouldn't be obligated, because of structure. I struggle with ANY silks even twillys. I love the packaging, but honestly .. I purchased a 12 pack of Twillys from Amazon that work just as well.
    I am very big on cost per wear so ideally I like to invest in items that can be used ALL of the time ( Impossible right)?
    Great Video.

      Better in terms of use? Perhaps, since you can wear that one crossbody and can easily use both hands to open and close the bag. But personally I have a lot of mini bags that I’m not as interested in getting a C18 🙈 I’ll keep the larger size and deal with the hassle 😂

    It's so nice that you can wear your Oran sandals. I have very narrow and bony feet, so my feet would slide right through them. I opted for the Santorini sandals because the ankle straps help them stay on my feet.
    Your sunshine yellow Birkin 30 is so pretty! Definitely a nice color that you can wear year round!
    Thank you for your review of your Constance 24. I'm wondering if the heavy H buckle is part of the reason why your bag slips off your shoulder easily. I heard that comment from another youtuber. That would definitely bug the heck out of me too! Now I'm rethinking whether or not to get one. Would you be open to getting a Constance 18 since the strap is longer and therefore you can crossbody it comfortably? Also, I wanted to get your opinion on the Mosaique bag. It has the same infinity strap. The strap in longer on the 17 size and shorter on the 21 size. Do you think that bag will have the same shoulder sliding issue as the Constance because it also has a large metal closure? I haven't had a chance to try one on yet.
    And yes, I would love to see an Hermes bag comparison video! Thanks Katie!

    • @myclosettravels
      @myclosettravels  3 роки тому

      So sorry to hear about your struggles with the oran sandals! But the santorini are beautiful too 😍 sometimes I struggle with ankle straps because they rub my heels and I blister too much, so I get scared to try new ones 😭
      I think the issue with the should straps might have to do more with the shape of your shoulders and your frame than the handbag itself. Of course, there can be some elements of the bag itself that can make this worse, but I say this because I don’t have the rolling off issue as much when I am wearing lighter layers because the bag will actually stay on my shoulders (I have a relatively larger frame for an Asian woman). But the extra layers sort of ‘round out’ my shoulders, which I think makes the straps slip! I hope this makes sense 🤔 so having said that, if you typically have that issue with the Constance or other handbags that are similarly shaped and sized, I think you would continue to have that issue with the Mosaique bag too.
      Personally I am not considering the 18 size - I have a lot of mini crossbody bags, so I’ll keep the larger 24 and live with the fact that I cannot crossbody it 😉

      The Constance wouldn't be for me either, simply because 1. it's a shoulder bag, and I prefer top handle bags, 2. it would be to small for my needs. But I can fully understand all your points you mentioned.
      Loved the video 💞!
      Oh, right, my best Hermès pieces are the Bastias, I use them a lot, two pieces I just recently added to my collection, the Agenda PM Simple (great if you want to take a small calendar or notebook with you) and the notebook Ulysse Mini, and I also like the Guernesey Cardholder and, since I carry coins, the Portemonnaie 24 (something different like the Bastia, less versatile, it's really meant for carrying coins, but definitely enjoy this item), as well as my Silk'In Compact wallet and Coin Purse (the Coin Purse I use for my earphones or as a little catchall).
      What I rarely use is a piece many other people rave about: the Calvi cardholder. I suppose I don't have enough cards to fill it up, so it's a little bit "loose", if that makes any sense 🤔. 🤗

    New subbie here and LOVE and appreciate your honesty! Love the look of the Birkin but what do you do when you have to go to a public bathroom with that hand held bag? I adore my Hermes punk ring and bracelet-both in rose gold.

    • @myclosettravels
      @myclosettravels  3 роки тому

      Thank you for watching, and welcome! 💕 When visiting a public restroom, I will either ask someone to hold it for me outside, or worst case I will hang it on the hook on the bathroom door. For the occasions I typically carry my Birkin, I know I usually have access to ‘nicer’ public bathrooms if that makes sense! For example, if I’m going on a picnic in the park all day, this probably is not my handbag of choice 😉

      I haven't seen a smaller Constance in person yet, but personally I do not want to add one to my collection because I already have so many mini bags. I love the size of the C24, it's just a bummer it cannot be crossbody on me! 🥴

    Oh no, you look gorgeous in those photos with con con. It's not the straps, it's time you want to live in a better body shape for you. I would work my butt out to lose weight and I'm trying to lose 3 -4 kg to attend my perfect weights. It's hard because I like food. 😂 Actually, you can add a piece of fur handle cover. It would help your bag stay on your shoulder and the fur looks so elegant and cute for winter time.

    The only issue I have with any Constance is a Constance in Epsom. To me the Constance is the most beautiful bag, and I would never ever in 1 billion million years separate myself from one of my Constance girls😊💕💫

    • @myclosettravels

      Do you consider epsom too stiff for a constance? Or you don't like the texture of epsom leather in general? I'm curious why you don't like the constance in epsom 🤔 I would absolutely put the pocket square in a pocket of a blazer, but very few of mine actually have a breast pocket. It's why I haven't found myself using it as much as I thought!

    One last thing it’s like nobody taught this current generation how to build a wardrobe, y’all just seem to buy a bunch of crap with no thought of how it will better your wardrobe. Make a list of what you are missing in your jewelry some thing that’s missing in your coat something is missing in your sweaters something that’s missing in your pants something that’s missing in skirts or dresses. The list will be constantly changing his new collections come out as things get old and worn but good Lord have some thought into your purchases. I’ll actually have never sold one piece, I have given away pieces that I have literally worn the crap out of somebody who doesn’t mind a gifted piece of a very vintage luxury.

    • @myclosettravels
      @myclosettravels  3 роки тому +1

      That's absolutely how I approach purchasing items for my wardrobe! But despite best intentions, I still get pieces that don't work out - either my preferences changed or I discovered an aspect that doesn't work for me, but it was something I came to learn once I had the piece. Sometimes you just have to try to know what works for you.

      @@myclosettravels As sweetly as I can convey this, money is much more valuable to me than it is to a younger generation. I see so many fashion mistake videos on UA-cam. But I get it, content is a constant necessity in the world of UA-cam creators. In my eye, Epsom leather, looks, feels & wears “cheap”. A Constance is a true ladies bag. It was not built for multitasking. It is not for those in a hurry. It’s a perfect finish to a perfect outfit. It’s for a lovely shopping day and catching a fabulous lunch with friends. It’s for a day in to night. I love seeing it in a box, swift & goat leather.
      You are lovely and I don’t know if you noticed but that pink Clic Clac H bracelet looks amazing with your hair color. I’m sure you could find an inexpensive navy blazer with a pocket. Navy goes with so much in that pocket square would look fabulous With it all. Theory has a cute one😊💕💫
