My rule: never wear someone else's initials.

In my opinion a person should just buy whatever they like and love and not what is popular or trendy

I still rock my Valentino Rockstuds and get compliments every time I wear them. Don’t be a fashion victim, buy something only if you love it and you will wear it proudly forever.

Two years ago I saw some of Cristobal balenciagas original designs on exhibition. It was magnificent, some of the dresses could be modern, almost none seemed outdated. Nothing balenciaga puts out today represents in any way that original vision😩

If you love and buy a luxurious handbag, keep them. I do not care what anyone says, especially this video.

exclusivity is required for prestige, some designers lose prestige

I can’t wait until Stanley cups go out of style. I’m gonna laugh so hard at the clowns who have cabinets full of multicolored CUPS !!!! Like why did you need MULTIPLE REUSABLE CUPS 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Disclaimer: I do not own any “luxury”, designer’s big name bag nor do I wish to own one. Since there are omnipresent these days and everyone seems to have at least one designers item, they simply seem cheap to me. Also, it’s a matter of how people wear these items and only few really know how to style them, what cheapens them even more in my opinion. But again we all are different and entitled to doing whatever we want with our money. Enjoying your videos!

i still love and enjoy wearing most of the items that u mentioned hahaha esp VCA’s.

I can not confirm that. Just today I noticed again that some of the clothes on Dior's first day of sale are hardly available due to pre-orders. There are a lot of people who would like to say that, but it's not like that. Some things don't sell well, others do. When I'm in the store, I also see how other people buy handbags. They are also well attended. Dior also has a lot of things without a logo. People buy both with and without a logo.

I agree with everything except the following: Oran Sandals. Those are just classic wardrobe staples. Just as the YSL Tribute is their signature slide, that’s also a staple. I still see plenty of women wearing their Orans. True, it’s been counterfeited and duped a lot. However, it’s still a classy shoe that looks nice with pretty much everything you pair with it, which is why it’s still popular. Next, Valentino Rockstud. The Rockstud has become “the face of Valentino “, just as The Speedy is the face of LV. Recently, in Harper’s Bazaar, they spoke of how the Rockstud has become a classic that has reached timeless status. The Rockstud had super high sales for 2023, which is why it’s back front and center for 2024. Did you know Valentino makes the most money off The Rockstud line? I sold the pair I purchased many years ago and went to purchases another pair because I fell back in love. I still see them often. They look timeless to me and I get why Valentino has made it a focal point in its collections. Lastly, the Burberry Nova Check Print. You kinda lost me on this one, sis. Burberry created the Nova Check print. They literally have the patent on it. 😂 It belongs to the. That is their signature print! Also, Burberry is one of the leading “quiet luxury” designer houses, along with The Row. You see their print and you already know what time it is! Their pieces are elegant and do not scream money at all. I do own the Nova Check scarf and get tons of compliments when I wear it during the cold months. I also have. Burberry trench that gets tons of compliments. These are considered classic, staple pieces that always elevate your look. But to call it lazy of Burberry to always display their Nova Check, which is the logo of their brand, is a bit much. 😂 Just as the lion head is the logo of Versace. Do you feel Valentina Versace is lazy for displaying her logo as well? Anyway, I do understand it’s your perspective and you are entitled to your opinion. So, I respect it. Even though your perspectives are very humorous though.

We all knew that luxury brands mark up products a lot- but the recent dior incident has left me disillusioned. I previously was planning to get my hands on a couple bags, and maybe an hermes some day. But now it's looking like it'd be a waste of money seeing how low quality they have become.

Oran sandal is the best shoes I got from luxury brand lol, I’ve worn it for 3 years, ppl wear it for 9 years, never broke except some color loss

I begin to hate certain handbags because everyone had a real or fake one of it like those Louis Vuitton bags and Michael Kors. There's nothing wrong with liking the bags, it's just that everyone has one and The Birkin real or fake is rare to spot; practical too.

😂😂😂 love her voice with a natural chicky laughing... ❤❤❤

This happened with van cleef arpels back in 2010 give or take, it became popular with a ton of dups just no social media like today. Its been around forever and I believe it will survive unlike some lux clothing brands.

I love my Burberry people love fashion do not care what people think I love my Burberry

Just keep using them even if not in trend. You define your own style.

I would throw in Cartier love bracelet in that list too

Yes 2nd video please

Look at the demons and entities modelling for balanciaga 😳

a lot of these cycle. i don't have logos on my belts but i have absolutely no doubt that they will come back in style soon enough. "quiet luxury" is just another trend. it won't last forever edit: some are definitely deserving of the coffin emoji though ⚰

I love my Dior items and will continue wearing them.

I''ll stick with my vintage Hobbs leather belt from my grandmother, that belts older than me and still classic and in perfect condition, no logo's no initials and nothing flashy.

Oh my word I feel so validated! I've hate Valentino rockstuds since they came out😂 Why are they still making those??😅

The GG belt is the one of the few items that Sabato de Sarno has kept around from the Michele era.

Most people don’t care about any overpriced products ,bags,clothes etc.. no one would pay attention if influencer would not market them which is so obvious… or if you didn’t see the logos … belts are just belts and no one needs to see the logo on anything…

Concur.. would not give up my Burberry coat and purse.. the old usual pattern comforts me or perhaps just like the color combination? I still like and buy Burberry products…

I have so many nice high fashion items I love. And I must agree those “trends” you mentioned are so ugly. Besides Alhambra VCA. I just genuinely adore mother of pearl❤

I own Dior bags, and I personally don’t think they’re going to take much of a hit. I’m going to keep carrying my gorgeous bags, just like I still carry my Balenciaga bags. While I agree that you don’t see Burberry’s nova check as much as we used to, it’s still iconic. I just bought my first Burberry trench coat and scarf and I own a Mini Banner bag. LOVE THEM. ❤

good video

As ambiguous it my sounds IT IS NO LONGER LUXURY IF IT IS IN MASS! With all the RESALE of luxury or RENT OF LUXURY some items have become off putting

⚰️ 2nd video please

I still like the Alhambra collection though.

Everything you mentioned are items that became trendy, therefore now they’re tacky and fashion victim-y. I know an item has long been done for when I see it everywhere in elementary schools. When 10 and 11 year olds are rocking “Orans”, H belts, Rockstud shoes, and “Dior” book totes, it’s actually comical to see adults dressed the same exact way. ⚰️

I absolutely adore VCA. I think even the classics which weren’t mentioned in this video, such as the chanel classic flap, cartier love/tank/panthere, etc. all have many knockoffs and items that are heavily “inspired” by them. Usually, anything that is desirable or worth wanting will be knocked off. VCA is extremely classic, timeless, and the epitome of femininity imo. It’s my own personal opinion, but I think the Cartier love has reached overdone/tacky status (much less so than VCA Alhambra). Even so, many people enjoy the Cartier love which has its own appeal being a very classic bangle with clean lines and an easily stackable piece. All in all, as others have said, if you truly love something - don’t listen to what others say! Enjoy what you love and don’t subscribe to quick trends unless you really want to. Style should be about what speaks to you.

a friend of mine wear in summer Oran sandales from Hermes since last year and now they look like old slippers from old old time

Luxury is not beautiful. I dont want something that is not beautiful.

I stopped trying to buy self esteem from luxury brands decades ago.

I still wear my sandals from Hermes, and belt. I don’t mind if many people wear the fake one. Because mine already 7 years old and I still enjoy them. While fake Hermes sandals looks bad after couple of month. If you have money, you can choose what designers items that you really like 👍 don’t be fashioned victims.

Lazy is a good word for it

Burberry's "nova check" is part of the brands heritage. And I doubt that they will ever stop using it as a part of their brand identity. Hopefully just not overuse it. Anything overused gets overwhelming. Be it rockstuds, fendi logo, or Oran sandals. But too many influencers have the cash to burn and unfortunately these "haul" unboxings will continue one way or another.

I bought Steve Madden's sandals, and honestly, I can't tell the difference

I loved the Orans, but too many duplicates were made. I know, I bought a lot of them, only in good genuine leather. Once a synthetic/plastic dupe hits Amazon, we know a style is out, or is on its way out, at least. Those Asian mass-producers are at least 5 to 20 years or more behind style trends, I’m always shocked at all those 2000 styles in cheap poly they’re still trying to sell. Who buys that stuff?

Our parents taught us the value of money. We don't waste money on luxurious %oods. Save and invest your money for your future. When you have the money, then buy if you can afford. I stopped buying things in 2012 and use what i have.

Quiet or loud luxury....hmmm, doesn't matter. I wear what makes me feel good regardless. Not gonna let society dictates whats loud and quiet.

I actually love my Balenciaga pieces but not because they bare the name Balenciaga. I actually like their designs and appreciate them beyond their season. The Crush Tote is my favorite purse because it's hilarious and beautiful and always strikes up a conversation about how screwed up luxury fashion has become. Also the 10XL sneakers are my most comfortable shoes followed by the HardCrocs and the Bouncers. I really love the few pieces I have and think it's ridiculous to throw them out over the ad scandals (abhorrent as they were). If we want to go that route, that's fine. But we need to completely cancel every single brand under Kering. And while we're at it cancel Calvin Klein. We all seem to have completely forgotten the 90's, huh? And every single brand that's collaberated with Balenciaga has to go as well. So no Adidas or Gap or Under Armour or Yeezy. And better yet stop watching The Simpsons as well. It's just going too far. I'm not getting rid of my purse or my shoes.

Funny how everything in your list I saw in every store front on holiday in Turkey. The fakes are getting so good nowadays and with the Dior scandal I'm not going to buy any more luxury bags at least for a while. I'm glad I never bought the tote though I do own a limited edition D Lite handbag which is probably just as cheap to make!

THOSE HAVE NEVER BEEN LUXURIOUS ITEMS, those items have been mass produced and people have made a fool of themselves believing they were "unique" and telling others how wonderful felt to wear them

I never liked those Rick Star stud shoes, but now they look super-dated. No one wears heels like that anymore, anyway.

I stopped buying luxury handbags when everyone and their mothers caught on. If you have a great sense of style and good taste, you know and can feel when something starts looking cheap. Once it's offered to the masses and mass-produced, you know to stay away from it. I am 60 and my first designer bag was the LV satchel circa 1979 when I was 16 years old. Back then, girls my age didn't have a clue on any luxury brands. I still have it and now it is vintage. It is better than any of the latest LV bags offered in various styles/designs and materials. I also have the classic Chanel 2.55 black quilt bag purchased in 1990 so I suppose it is also vintage. I loved Kate Spade (I know, she's not at the Luxury level) for her whimsy designs back in the early 1990’s. I love all the unique pieces I have of KS, but once she sold her company, it was over. Cheap hard leather was being used for her handbags so I am no longer a fan. Ditto for Coach. I love the pieces I have from the 70’s and 80’s but never purchased anything after those pieces. My point: you know when to stay away. I am on board with quiet luxury; it’s the quality, design (classic), materials used that matter. Check out Shiv from Succession.

Quiet luxury is tacky.

Loud. Yes.

after buying chanel i stopped buying luxury bags. it only cost 57 dollars to make those luxury bags. hermes is a scam too. i dunno why people fall into that foolish games spending 30k with no birkin or kelly offers when they know it only takes 300 too 500 to create those bags

2nd video

talk about whether streetwear will ever be appropriate for burberry, daniel lee's loud approach seems to be running them into the ground

These designers are out to get your money... No thanks...😅

No, don't make a part 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I commend you for sticking to your values re the fashion houses in disgrace. They deserve it.

SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT!!! 🙌 Those ridiculous designer clown belts are so tacky, ugly and utterly tastless

⚰️ ...btw ur sense of humor..🤭

🖤⚰️🔮😂😉
