Why You Only Need ONE Designer handbag! Social media and marketing can make you want more and more, and as someone who does youtube and also watches it, I feel the pressure haha! Realistically though, you only need one luxury handbag, and if you pick the right brand, style and colour - you should be able to get it to work with most outfits. My recommended bag is the Chanel Trendy CC (It’s a good size and yet fits a lot, it’s elegant (good for day, events and evening), it’s classic and doesn’t look to be getting phased-out or dated any time soon, Chanel is always a good idea lol, and it can be worn crossbody/shoulder and by the top handle.
Owning only one handbag is great (financially), but I think it can help you to be more disaplined with the clothes you buy (as opposed to purchasing lots of things in styles you probably won’t wear much, if you’re matching everything to one bag, you’ll end up with more of a ‘capsule collection’ and a colour palette where things can be interchanged.

It took me too long to really get this. I have spent loads of money buying inexpensive luxury bags that were not the Chanel that I really wanted. As a result, I never felt actually HAPPY with what I had. I finally bit the bullet and bought a Chanel. I chose black for the reasons you mentioned and I still have other bags, but none upgrade an outfit the way the Chanel does. And, because I have what I want, the influencers don't impact me now. This is great advice and a great video.

She doesn't condemn the industry, but provides a glimpse into the reality behind the marketing. I hope you get a chance to check either out.

Some people on social media are always talking about how poor they are, but I think their is a big difference between really suffering from economic hardship and those who spend all their money on designer clothes bags, leaving them next to nothing to pay their bills with.

Hello Sophie, this is a fantastic video. With Instagram influencers, everything has become about consumerism in a completely over the top mindless way. I personally believe that if someone has the money, they can buy as many bags as they want. The problem is that people who are not even close to that income bracket are influenced to think they should also buy every new style of bag out there. What you have illustrated so clearly is that a few quality timeless items are more than enough to look stylish and elegant. Add to that clean shiny hair, good skin care, well-kept nails and good manners and you have an elegant and classy lady. You look fantastic in the silk pants and black top! ❤

I agree with you Sophie 100%. Less is more and over the years we accumulate so much that it becomes difficult to combine things in the end of the day, not to mention we run out of place to accomodate them. I personally do give out clothing a lot and investing on a key /capsule wardrobe and in more sustainable natural materials it is a small effort to save the environment. I am proud to see so many young people nowadays moving to that direction, avoiding mass consumerism and embracing the Greta effect in saving the planet! On this video, I totally agree on 3 key bags: black/beige and an evening one in black to cover you for every occasion. The key is not in buying but in maintaining. Same like with good wines you want to protect your items and regularly clean them in professional places so they will last over time. Silk is definitely one of those materials but it does require care. By the way Sophie to come back to your video those aubergine trousers look amazing on you. I checked on Lilysilk and their pictures for these trousers are horrible. It made me kind of wonder if they are the same pants!;) Keep up the great videos and unless you have done already I would suggest a key/capsule wardrobe video will be great to do.

I wish I had seen your video earlier; I always felt this way. I had the small Trendy in black when it first debuted, though I felt it was too bulky for casual everyday. I ended up buying the Trendy classic black woc for $3100; it is very elegant and not bulky, and I don't pack for overnight every time I leave home. It actually works with everything, and if I need a shorter chain for a handle, I can knot the chain on the inside flap. One of the problems I had with the Trendy handbag when trying it on was the chain actually slipped out of the riveted opening; not something a $5600 bag should be doing, though it is my favorite Chanel style. Because I am a true winter with salt and pepper hair, I don't wear warm colors at all, so I might buy a gray classic Trendy handbag if one comes up.

Sophie- great video! Would you consider doing a video/video series where you take your classic/timeless luxury bags and show alternatives with a similar look in different price points? Like Tory Burch who has been showing a lot of styles that are similar to high end. Even Coach has upped its game. That level. So what would be alternatives to Chanel. If you have a budget of $600 per bag, and you wanted to build a collection at that price point what are some great options.

Thanks for this helpful video. The color and style of bag you chose is ideal. Wish I could wear silk, but after finding out how it's made, I can't support that industry, it's cruel to both people and animals. But I have to say, you have wonderful taste and your outfits look amazing!!

I like the YSL that you have on the dresser! I think that would be my one bag. Idk why but I gravitate towards YSL since you showed your little black one a couple years ago.

Plus YSL is more affordable in comparison to Chanel or Hermes.

please note, my husband has a Burberry jacket he bought in Scotland over 20 years ago and it is...still so handsome on him. He always looks classic wearing it. Now how many other jackets would someone buy in those 20 years?

I SO agree! The Jumbo was a bag I wanted for years but it's just too big, I'm tall and curvy but it's still too large . I ❤ the M/L size or the mini. The Trendy is my fave! It's my one bag tag for sure xxx

I'm iffy about investing in a Chanel bag because I sometimes dress like a homeless person on a casual day and Chanel bags would definitely look awkward on me :( I was wondering if you ever had days where you dress super casual (just a simple t-shirt, jeans, sweatpants, etc)? If so, what kind of bags would you style with your "lazy" look? I'm just curious because you always dress so classy and put-together! BTW this quarantine in the U.S. is driving me crazy and binge-watching your videos are super entertaining! Being interested in luxury goods have been consequently associated with being "stuck-up" or "shallow" and I just want to say that you break all those stereotypes! Thank you so much for your videos!

I totally agree that one only needs one designer handbag. If you really know which bag would satisfy all one’s needs and design preference, then great. I think I could limit myself to 3 designer handbags.

What a fantastic video Sophie. Soooo true. I tell my children (2 girls) that quite a bit. It's better to invest in certain items even though it's a bit pricey and get more use out of the item. It basically comes down to cost per wear.

@JillMaurer 4 жыл бұрын

This is my favorite video you've ever done! I have over 50 bags and have to agree that you really only need one. The Chanel you chose is the perfect size, scale, and color. For me however, if I only had one bag I wouldn't want it to have the large logo on the top. Do you have a suggestion you would recommend for me if I were to only have one? xoxo

@yinglin9537 4 жыл бұрын

I would say you need a dark bag (black or navy), a nude (beige, light pink, dove grey), and a tan , and you can choose size based on your lifestyle. You dont need a pop of colour if you feel intimidated, and if you dont go out much, no need for clutches or super tiny bags. You need to know your fashion style and what style of bag you enjoy the most. It took me a long time to realise i hate mini bags, and i need medium to large size bags and i love top handle bags with a strap so bags like Loewe puzzle, celine belt bag, chanel trendy cc, coco chandle and hermes kelly are my fave type of bags. Everybody is different 🤷‍♀️

you are so classy i love it , and i agree when you wear a luxury bag, you need to get the appropiate look . I Saw so many people especially in switzerland or london wearing expensive stuff without trying to look good or worse , having damaged shoes along with their Gucci or LV bag, such a shame

I loved this idea! I never thought to put nude handbags with black shoes/accessories. It looks really nice. Like you said, it really does stand out. I'd love it if you made a video on how to build a stylish wardrobe when your style has changed. My old clothes aren't really my style anymore and I gained a bit of weight recently. I feel like I have to start from scratch. 😅 I have no idea where to begin building a new wardrobe.
