Thank you Babes for all the love on our last Q&A! ♥️ I heard all your feedback and I’m happy to say that these Q&A sessions will be back at least once a month 😍 You loves are THE BEST! 🥹♥️🩷
Honestly, I’m mostly turned off by luxury bags now. I think seeing all these looters at these brands made me feel sick to my stomach. I don’t want to buy secondhand bc I don’t want to inadvertently buy stolen goods. The crazy pricing, the obsessive nature of some influencers also make this whole thing just tiring and I’m getting older and I just don’t want to manage all this inventory. Wow I’m such a downer lol. You are the only luxury youtuber I follow now and I still enjoy your content. 😊
LouisVuitton, CarryAll PM in black empreinte leather, oh my goodness this bag awesome for everyday! I’m 70, and I am still buying bags"………..and sneakers! 😀
I truly believe Phoebe Philo products are sold out because few units of each product were made and thus making it easy to sell out. Underwhelming and over priced.
I’ve been feeling the same way about bags lately too. I’m way less crazy about BUYING, but really enjoy watching and looking still. Maybe it’s the economy or some anti consumerism vibe I’ve been getting, but I’m feeling way more purse peace nowadays and am even thinking about selling some.
A completely unrelated comment but I need to tell someone who might care...not something I'm bringing up with my buddies over beers. I've already got most of my wife's Christmas shopping done and here's how it went down. She's a LV devotee and normally carries big bags but I picked up the Keepall 25 in Monogram Eclipse for her. I didn't like the guitar strap so I found the Monogram Reverse Eclipse strap that came with the Keepall XS on Rebag and bought that for her to use instead of the guitar (I feel like that will help make the bag look more feminine). Since she normally carries big bags, her SLGs are larger as well so I got her the Coin Card Holder in Reverse Eclipse and the Pencil Pouch Elisabeth in Monogram Eclipse for her meds, lip balm, etc. Minnie had mentioned that going "matchy matchy" with this bag (she was talking about the XS) and related SLGs could make it hard to quickly pick them out in the bag so I got her a light grey bag insert from Samorga for the 25. I'm pretty pumped. Anything I should do differently or consider between now and Christmas? I always appreciate this community because you help me look good for the missus : ) Have a great weekend all.
Wow, you’ve done your homework ! She’s going to love it all especially how in depth you went to make sure everything pairs well together! The effort you went for your wives gift alone is a gift! 🎉
I’ve always loved handbags, even as a young person, so I will always want to carry one that speaks to me:) No matter what my income or budget, I will always find one that I get excited about. I do go through phases where I am not looking for a new one or take a pause because something else has distracted me. It’s one of my three big interests. For some people it is shoes, cars, jewelry, jeans, gardening, whatever, not my business and not theirs either:) Great convo!
Hi Minnie, I agree with you a 💯 about Celine triumph logo!!! It looks like an overweight CC 😂. I feel it’s very trendy as well. As per the 16 bag, same thing happens to me, I like it but I don’t 🤷🏼♀️. Last but not least, thanks for answering my Dior question, have a great weekend!
I love how original you are! All the RU-vid influencers that talks about luxury handbags are now either on the Hermes journey, or already got the big 3 from Hermes, and they can’t stop talking about their bags. i do own a few luxury pieces myself but I (or maybe the majority people that loves handbags) can’t really splurge like that yet they are all what I see on RU-vid. It creates “peer pressure”, and I’m tired. so I stoped watching their videos and I have been sticking with you from the beginning!❤
Minnie this video is so right on. I waited and waited for Phoebe’s collection and was very underwhelmed. A couple of years ago I would have jumped on one just for the collection. However I still love my bags!!!! Happy Scorpio season beauty❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on PP’s collection too Babe ♥️ Hopefully the next round has some goodies in store for us. Happy Scorpio ♏️ Season Babe!! 🙌🙌🥳🥳🥳
Great video!! You influenced me to purchase the Loewe flamenco bag today! I could not decide on color .. all GORGEOUS!! ended up with the caramel! 🤩 can’t wait to use it!
Hi 💖 Yet another great video 🎉 I love your answer to the Hermès question. I agree with you on that. I will not buy any B, K or C bags, I do however have the Garden Party in the size 36. I can not recommend that enough 💝🩷💕 I love mine. I got it in Rouge H. It is a light bag and so user friendly. Run, not walk to get one 😂🤩⭐️🧡 Have a wonderful day 🌺 Lots of love from Norway 🇳🇴 Toni 💁♀️
I have the Mulberry mini Alexa in cornflower blue, and it’s a showstopper! I have a lady Dior in fuchsia lambskin, and I always think about selling it. It’s a very fussy bag - very difficult to get in and out of. If it wasn’t for the beautiful color I would’ve already sold it.
Blame covid as we were at home and did a lot of online shopping....things are now ok.....i have also stopped purchasing bags and all things unnecessary.....calm prevails.❤ this
I watch your channel for the bags but I must say I disagree about The Seinfeld ending. I thought it was so fitting of and for them. Most people didn’t like it. May I ask why you didn’t like it and what you would have done differently?
I was disappointed with the Phoebe Philo bag collection…definitely expected more. Will still look forward to seeing what she’ll release in the future though. But if same price point as current collection…I will lose interest.
Minne, Ive been watching you for years. You were my inspiration and give me the confidence to buy my first Louis Vuitton bag back in 2017. Ive built up quite the collection from sneakers, bags, SLG's, luggage and accessories. i've totally gone off designer goods and spending so much money on them. I am now happy with the collection. I had a spiritual awakening in lockdown and totally prioritised the good life and freedom, I sold my properties and moved to the countryside in the north of the UK. What I loved to hear today was your love for restoration. I'd love to see you document an upcycle and how you tackle it. I know this is totally off your channels path but would you consider it? Ps. i still watch every video, just incase i miss out! keep shining bright. X
Hi Minnie, yet another great video 💚💚 I swear I would watch you open an envelope 😂. My bag of the day is Coach Borough xl one of my personal faves, and coincidentally also my favorite all leather bags the leather is delicious as you say like butter. 💚💚💚💚
The Pheobe Philo bags were overall disappointing considering how long the collection has been in the works. The gigantic tote seems way overpriced, which is what many commentators have said, about the collection in general. I thought some of the jackets were interesting. I also heard that the items were sold out due to the low production numbers and many collectors purchasing, but I don’t know if that’s accurate or not.
I love that you used your old intro! I’ve loved handbags since I was a child so I know I will never stop liking them. However, I’ve recently felt just like you about the new collections. In fact, I seem to be more excited about adding new styles from mid range brands such as Polene, Aspinal & Naghedi. I do own the Lock Me BB in the greige color & It has quickly become one of my favorite bags from LV 😊 I totally share your thoughts about Dior handbags, but I must say that I have recently been eyeing the Toujours bag in the small or medium size. As far as Hermes goes, I completely agree with you as well. It is not my style & the Garden party is the only style I have on my wishlist.
Absolutely awesome video ❤❤ totally agree with you. And yes I get it I have spent 2k several times on my LV bags that I absolutely adore. And don’t regret even tho some of my friends think I’m crazy except for my fellow bag lady’s who totally get it ❤
Awww, the more and more videos I watch of yours, the more I love you, dear Minnie! 💗 My ‘bag of the day’ today was my Chanel emerald green top handle. I took it out and dared Mother Nature NOT to rain!…it didn’t! Yaaayyy! 😉 Love you, hon! ❤👜❤
Ohhhh Chanels emerald greens are gorgeous! I can only imagine how beautiful your top handle is! 😍💚 Thank you so much lovely Donna! 🩷 Wishing you a fabulous week ahead! ♥️😘
I hate the Celine logo too! I don't understand why a brand that is so minimal and sleek has such an ugly in your face logo. I love SLGs because they make me happy, the cuteness, the colour. 😁
I have 3 L.V. bags + several scarves, wallets, and charms and a vintage Chanel bag. I thought when I was younger that these things would make me happier, but I hardly ever use them. I don't feel happy anymore about spending that kind of money on a bag and then having to worry about them being damaged or stolen. I am a bargain hunter by nature and I have been more into cheaper designer bags lately.
Thank you for answering the questions I sent in!! I love your passion for handbags and the way you talk about them like the works of art I think they are. I share that passion so I love seeing others that get just excited by handbags as I do. The last one I got I squealed when I opened the box.
My love for luxury has changed as well. I think it evolves like everything- everyone goes through a process just at different times in life. Your tastes mature and you learn to appreciate the beauty and not the need to acquire.
I feel the same. Definitely not as pumped about new drops. I may like one or two bag but if they don’t want to offer it to me , whatever. I’ll keep my $$ then. Bye
I’m absolutely not into the new releases from any brand. I look it but it left me indifferent at this point. I totally see myself stopping buying handbags for the simple reason that I’m into classics and I’ve got all the ones I really wanted over the years. Today I’m carrying my birkin 30, yes huge Hermès fan here!
I feel that the new phoebe philo collection is only sold out due to very limited inventory or as a marketing tactic. I just agree it was underwhelming and most people I have talked to felt the same.
I was actually wondering if you stopped putting too many to the wish list nowadays. because I went crazy and started buying in the pre-love market then I realized I wasn’t even wearing any of them so I started selling them back. I think it’s just a love for handbags, the high and fortunate to be able to buy many but when you get a good quality vintage bags, you realize what they have now and with the increases, it’s not the same and not worth it.
I do rotate all of them but of course some more than others ☺️ Nowadays I am having more fun with the ones I currently have but don’t get me wrong, my eye still wanders. 😂♥️Vintage bags are amazing! 🙌♥️♥️♥️
@@Minks4All hahaha I know wym when I visit the Houston galleria I walkthrough the stores just to see what’s new and if there’s anything that wows me. Think I want to focus on Lux shoes rn I know that I will wear more. Keep up the great videos. 🫶🏼
Not necessarily, many AOL and Marc Jacobs bags are made in China and they have amazing quality. From what I was told, the newer ones fall apart quickly but I couldn’t comment from personal experience.
I own the Celine Small 16 in the black satinated calfskin and I love it. I was influenced to buy it from Steph at Handbagholic. I thought I wanted the Teen Triomphe but decided it was a bit too trendy. My Celine 16 is definitely giving off a 60’s vibe so I can understand why it’s not for everyone but the craftsmanship is exceptional. I have exactly two luxury bags, both from Celine. There is, however, one more bag I’m eyeing but it is super expensive. It’s from Joseph Duclos. I love everything about this brand. I am loving your vlogs! Very informative! 👏🏼👏🏼
Good morning and happy Friday to all!!! ❤ this video came in right on time. I’m debating about a Versace bag that’s a lil over 2k. I know it’s pricy but I want it my collection! I was debating based upon the price but in reality I want it in my collection as a forever piece to use and enjoy. Thinking I’m get it! I’m never gonna be over handbags either, but more selective about my collection the older I get too. Great video!!!
Thank you for answering my Celine question! I honestly thought you’d love the Celine 16 because of the Aspinal of London Mayfair closure lol we are all drawn to different things 💕 appreciate you always babe!
Hi Minnie! Another great video! Thank you so much for answering my question! I’m definitely a fan of the LV totes and think that’s a great recommendation for the Neverfull or the OnTheGo. I do love those bags. What do you think of the Graceful, also?
i want a david yurman bracelet on vestiaire collective lol. hopefully it's as obscure and rare as i think it is so that no one else buys it before i get the chance lolll
Always love the Q&A!! Love hearing about your other hobbies cooking & refurbishing furniture. I feel the same way about handbags I love looking at them but not as excited when they come out every season. And I so love Seinfeld still watch reruns. And I agree on the Season Finale. You probably heard they might have reunion for that terrible finale, let’s hope so 😆
Minnie!!! SO agree on everything you said today!!!..😊....esp.your thoughts on all the brands! yep,...goyard = shiny canvas- yuck-a friends tote tore and cracked badly...Hermes fully agree with you on all...dior, I feel you would like a preloved lady dior one in soft leather but new- WAY over-priced... cooking, decorating and Seinfeld all my favorites too! ❤
Minnie you came so early with this video and you are looking too too pretty in without makeup you are my inspiration and I wish you have a best week ahead 🥺❣️❣️
I love the info yasss miss it My bag of the day is LV croisette in DE New collection not for me I was before but not now nothing speak to me 😊 I love to admire what bag people rocking every day 😊 No Christmas wishlist I have everything thanks GOD
Oh my God, you sold the speedy 30 Mirakomi multicolor that you actually purchase brand new from the Boutique????!!!!! 😢😢😢😢 you have so many bags that look similar to a Birkin30 I find it really hard to believe that you would not want one if you were offered one from the boutique, and I don’t mean just to resell for its value it would be worth, but I actually want to keep in your collection…
I did, zero regrets too since the funds went towards something equally fabulous 🙌 I don’t have any bags that look like the Birkin so…yeah not my jam 😂☺️💕
The last question was so random, but I'm also a HUGE Seinfeld fan!! Back to handbags: I recently found out that some of the Aspinal of London bags are made in China. I'm a big fan, and have several of their pieces, but this knowledge has taken some of the luster off of the brand for me. How do you feel about that? Can a bag be considered "luxury" if it's made in China?
I found out they were made in China before my first purchase so it definitely turned me off but I have experienced some misses with items that weren’t up to scratch due to quality that I returned. Sad to say that many of these luxury fashion houses have quality control issues too. You’d think with the prices they charge, they’d be more aware of the product they put out. ♥️
I am really interested in getting a Longchamp Le Pliage Xtra S Handbag. I know that you have an XS, do you recommend an organizer? Zoomoni thin or thick? Thank you!
Hello Minnie!!! First off thank you for the video and second I love your beautiful emerald city green nail polish you are rocking 😊 have a blessed weekend 😊
Hi Minnie. I totally agree with you with the Celine hardware. I feel bad saying this but it's one of the worst I've ever seen it's too ornate or something. I love the Longchamp pink bag you have. I wish I bought it when I saw it in Nordstrom Rack 😢lol P.S. I didn't get a notification about this video and I have then turned on for you . I hope you have a good weekend 🙃
Hi Babe! ♥️ Sometimes the Longchamp pops up on Nordstrom Rack from time to time. Thanks for the heads up on the notifications, not sure why they don’t do through 😭
Recently got a Marc Jacobs medium leather tote bag in electric orange and I began to understand why you are raving about it, it packs a lot very sturdy and not at all heavy. I love it so much and looking forward to having the other sizes as well. Maybe the only thing I want to change in that bag is the size of the shoulder strap (could have been a little wider), but, overall, it is a very stylish and very functional bag.
Hi Minnie, just want to let you know that I am watching your videos from Taiwan and I really enjoy all your videos and gained very practical tips from you, really appreciate your work❤
