Also, now that you are back it might be interesting to do a “best of Paris” video? Like your top recommendations for hotels, restaurants, sights, shopping of course etc. I feel like many of us trust your taste and travel to similar places!
Great idea! I'll have to revisit photos from our previous trips to Paris as well so I can remember everything. Paris is always changing and sometimes the simplest places to eat are the best!
What an amazing haul! Every piece is stunning 🤩 congratulations! And I’m sure we can all appreciate how you take the time and go over everything in your videos 👏🏼 thank you!
So many great pieces!! Love the dior jackets, the beautiful vca and the white classic flap!! Ah, what a fantastic trip!! Thank you for taking us along! 🤍
I missed your videos. Your style is very similar to mine and you come across so authentic, ur not acting for the camera it’s just so nice feeling like we are there with you unboxing.
Aww thank you! That means so much! The paris footage really slowed me down with editing because of technical difficulties with large files etc plus work got crazy! I’m so happy you feel like you were there unboxing with me!
Wow!! what a haul! Congrats on everything. The bar jackets looking beautiful on you. Thanks for also sharing info on the VAT refund process and letting us know about the points system at the Samaritaine. Looking forward to hearing about the process at customs and Hermes shopping. Great find at the airport. Thanks for sharing ❤️
As always, impeccable taste!! Love your aesthetic of combining classic with trendy pieces!! Loved all of your new goodies, especially the VCA Alhambra gold bracelet!!😍😍😍😍 Dior blazers are so chic! and the Fendi bag is amazing!! Thank you for sharing!!
Happy Belated Birthday Jasleen! Congrats on getting such beautiful items. Love them all especially the white CF, VCA bracelet, Chanel agenda and white Dior jacket 😍🤍 I also liked how you went over VAT and purchasing as a Canadian consumer. I can’t wait for the Hermes video and your experience. 🤍🤍🤍
Wow talk about luxury shopping. Now that's what I'm talking about! I'd been searching for a good luxury shopping haul but most peoples end up being a bunch of window shopping. You actually bought the pieces girl! And such great classic pieces. I'm a new subscriber now because of this video. Also what I love about your video is that you're clearly educated and know what your talking about. Thanks for sharing your great experience!
Oh thank you so much! You are too kind! I really did spoil myself this birthday! I’m glad you appreciated all the background information I shared. I really want my reviews and unboxings to be relevant and informative for others who may be looking to purchase similar items. Thank you so much for subscribing! Stay tuned, I w got backlogged footage of more unboxings coming up!
Love the voice over... "3 months later" Jasleen Everything is Gorgeous! Love the small white Classic Flap on you ❤ Thank you for sharing your birthday adventure!
You got so many gorgeous pieces! I love shopping in Paris, hoping to go this year in the spring. I did not know about the department store point system. Thank you for mentioning it, i will definitely try to take advantage of it
I feel like I was watching you live…even tho filmed back in November! Love-love that Chanel! I have to go to Paris now 🥰 Now I’ll finish watching. Wanted to pause to let you how much I’m enjoying this video.
I really want to see how you packed it all for the flight. This series was really great and I didn’t mind at all the delay. I’m planning on going to Paris for my 50th this December and you gave me a lot of ideas.
Awesome haul! Happy belated birthday and congrats for everything you got Jasleen. I just got my Guilloché bracelet back from sizing and I also changed the clasp, I love mine as well. I agree with you about the trainers I love mines too. As per the white CF, mine is 21B in the size small as well, but it’s a tinier different in the shade, I love mine, yes you are right they are not microchips just chips with an authenticity number lol. I hope you love yours!
Thank you so much Taty!! That's interesting that they changed the clasp - I didn't know they did that. I kept mine as is because I have big enough man hands to prevent it from slipping off my wrist lol. Yes, colours, even though permanent, can have subtle differences due to the hide and dye lot. Even black bags can be different. The trainers are the best!
@@therealshakeen that’s correct, even black ones you and I know this having different black flaps lol. Yes my hands are tiny and it’s kind of difficult to put it on my own unless I am using the magnetic claps. I didn’t know it was possible until someone told me and it’s way more easier now to put it own by myself. Enjoy your beauties, nice talking to you here Jasleen 💕
Love all your purchases and thanks for discussing the difference between the duties vs sales tax when shopping outside of Europe and entering Canada. Would love to hear your experience going through customs in Canada and how you have to pay the taxes after you exceed the $800 limit when you arrive. I’ve watch the luxonomy video before and her experience is just outright terrifying and I would rather not have to deal with that. I bought the Chanel 19 21A in grey in June 2021 and the 20B purple was also available and was CAD $500 less. Couple weeks later I saw on the Chanel official website that the 21B was $500 more than what I paid for the 21A so there definitely was at least two price increases in Canada between summer 2020 and summer 2021.
Glad the video was informative! Yes, I bet that would be so frustrating if they tried to charge duty! I’m my experience, it’s never been the case luckily. Oh so there was an increase! Good to know!
I think small is the prettiest size for the CF. The white is gorgeous and it looks great on you! Also, I think all white classic flaps are made in france.
Thank you so much! Yes, I think all smalls and mediums tend to be made in France. For a long time Jumbos and Maxis were mostly made in Italy. But now, I am noticing that that larger sizes are also made in France.
Hey! Shakeen I am your new subscriber and I really addicted to your vlogs so much and you’re looking so pretty and I wish you reach 7K Subscribers very very soon!♥️🙈😘❣️
Horreyyyyyyyyy🎉🎉🎊🎊I bought the white small classic flap from 21 B classic collection before the last price increase and it is a gem 💎 in my collection . Congratulations 🎈🎊the small is the most beautiful size .I have 3 small and 2 medium and prefer the small . Enjoy it
Omg I’m so jelly love all your purchases looks like you had a great bday I can’t bring myself to big y he Chanel 19 I just bought the coco Chanel small in the 22p collection the pink color it’s so beautiful my first Chanel yeaiii but I’ve been think about the Chanel 19
Love al your choices of bag! They are so lovely! Im having a hard time deciding whether I like medium or small flap. I like medium because it’s spacious.
it's interesting what Dacob says about the cross stitch. I looked into it after his video and vintage smalls in lambskin from the 90s/early series (I can tell they are small because they only have 7 diamonds) do have the cross stitch, so he is not quite correct that they never had them before now. Also editing to say the white small looks perfectly proportioned on you!
Thank you so much! Yes, they did have that cross stitch before. I also saw photos I had from a few years ago of looking at smalls in boutique and realized some had them!
Hi Bushra, I found the skirt lol. I thought it wasn't available anymore, but it is! I linked it and my bodysuit in the description box! rstyle.me/cz-n/ga647vc87r7
I’m glad I found your channel. We hv very similar styles. I really wanted the same VCA bracelet but I’m still on the waiting list. So I got the 10 motifs necklace cause it was too pretty to say no. I have the same white classic flap. I really want the mini flap bag that you hv but it nowhere to be found :(
Oh wow! The 10 motif! That is a stunning piece! You can double it up as a bracelet as well! I hope you can find the mini houndstooth- you never know you can find it on the preloved market!
Thank you for explaining the duty and taxes for Canadians! It is very useful! Do we need to pay for duty when we buy EU made goods from the US instead of direct from EU? Also! I love love love the Dior jackets on you! Esp the cream! The cut is so flattering on you, in all the ways you put them on (draped, worn open or closed buttons). I've always thought Balmain and Dior RTW are very you, much more than Chanel.
Thank you so much! So when you purchase EU made products from the US, you still only pay sales tax on the amount. (Minus the $800 exemption). But the kicker is, most of the time, there is no tax free shipping in the US- you’ll pay the state tax and then our provincial sales tax on top 😭 whereas in the EU you get credited their vat. However, if you are ordering online from the US from say Fashionphile, they don’t charge you the state tax
The guilloche scratches easily n loses its shine after a while. I bought and sold it after a month when i saw few scratches. Buy the hammered gold one. Thats the one u can wear daily. :)
Oh great point, Jiya. I have noticed faint scratches, but I know it’s inevitable with any jewellery. The engraving distracts from those though. I haven’t noticed any loss in shine, though. I wear mine everyday and even in the shower. But thanks for the warning, I’ll try to be more careful with mine!
I always prioritize packing my valuable pieces in my carryon hand luggage because I would never want to risk losing the items if my checked baggage were to get lost or stolen. Also, you really should keep the items handy so you can be ready to present them to customs - they don't always ask to see the items, but it's expected you have them with you both when you depart Europe and arrive in your home country. I hope that helps!
This was worth the 3 month wait, 😆.. btw, i purchased an organizer for my chanel 19 from handbag angels. There organizers have built-in base and side shapers.
I live in Canada and I always have to pay duties for Fashionphile items, no matter if the item was made in Europe. I don't understand. Nice haul though!
Interesting. So what you paid was a combination of provincial sales tax plus duty? Anything that I or one of my friends imported had sales tax only on the declared value (13%) plus maybe a $10-20 brokerage fee.
Love everything you bought! We are going this summer, so I am hoping I come home with something from Chanel :) Thank you for sharing the customs process and the final cost savings (or not). So, to understand, you need to carry it all with you, right? Did you just put everything in a carryon? You have so much there, how did you carry it all? LOL
Thank you! I always try to keep all valuable items in my personal carryon and or tote - just cause I’m paranoid my checked luggage may get lost. I’ll address this in another video!
Hi Angie, I found the skirt lol. I thought it wasn't available anymore, but it is! I linked it and my bodysuit in the description box! rstyle.me/cz-n/ga647vc87r7
Congrats!!! Love your videos and just subscribed! Your chanel videos are so helpful. I just got the Guilloche bracelet and plan on getting the matching pendant when I go to Paris next month. How did you call them ahead of time? I can’t figure out the number/email and I would like to see if they have it in stock and make an appointment. Thanks!
Thank you so much! And thank you for subscribing! I pretty much googled the locations and phoned the number. If you are calling from Canada, you have to dial 011 before Long distance charges will apply, just so you know. If you DM me on instagram, I can share a contact I have there with whom you can communicate on whatsapp. He's given me permission to share his details.
Great unboxing video...very detailed! I remember back in the day however unboxing stuff used to be fun...it was like opening a Christmas gift. Is it just me or are companies getting either lazy or uncreative in their presentation? Great video though :)
Then my channel isn’t for you. People watch for the information I provide. If your attention span isn’t suited to these videos, please stick to Instagram and Tik Tok 60 second unboxings. 🙄 By the way, I also flew all the way to Paris and spent a pretty penny, I’m gonna take all the time I want unboxing 😂
Oh my God Minni, then don’t watch! Most of my viewers prefer longer discussion videos as they contain information they find useful. If you were expecting a short video of just unboxing items, then that is very boring to film and watch and gives no valuable information to the viewer. If speedy unboxings are what you prefer, then please stick to Instagram reels and tik tok. I flew all the way to Paris and dropped a lot of money on these “few things” - I’m gonna take as much time as I like 😊
