SMALL LUXURY ITEMS: Why They're REALLY Not Worth Your Money and Are There to DISTRACT YOU

Are small designer accessories (or ‘SLGs’, which stands for Small Leather Goods) worth it? They’re typically priced within feasible reach when compared with a bag that might cost thousands. As such, they can really pull you off-course if you’re saving for the bag, but get bored and want to treat yourself!
Well here are my thoughts on why I’d ditch the luxury SLGs, focus on the bag and at most, get myself a belt (instead of the card holder). I really think that’s all you need as these coin holders/card holders and wallets get worn-out so quickly, it’s a shame to spend the money on something that won’t last as long (or look as fresh) as a designer handbag. Includes examples from Chanel, Dior, Hermes, Loewe and Louis Vuitton.

None of those brands worth the price, it's better get something on a generic jewellery or even have something custom made, I was going to get a Tiffany ring (silver) and for the same amount I got an emerald and 14k gold ring made for me.

Ashley Li I have quite a bit of Tiffany jewellery and I am not precious with my jewellery, I wear it in the shower, gardening, exercising, riding etc and I’ve never had a problem with anything tarnishing or chains breaking. Also the customer service for stuff like changing chain lengths has been really good.

As Angela said, it is really delightful to watch someone who purchases and enjoys luxury products yet still maintains an objective and sensible attitude toward their value. Sophie is clearly confident in her own abilities and does not need labels to prop up her self-image-and that is one of the most important lessons her videos teach.

These necklaces and earrings are the one thing where I wouldn't feel bad just getting a fake tbh. Even if I was a billionaire I would never pay that much for this kind of quality. Real gold etc ok , no problem but definitely not brass. I can get that without a designer brand label for 50€ easily.

Chanel prices are beyond insane - paid $1600 USD for rectangle mini flap around 5+ years ago + they are now more than DOUBLE - it is shocking! the only item from Chanel I would consider would be a classic long pearl necklace but only if vintage + low price - even worse, Chanel only covers bags for 5 years, I'll stick with Longchamp + Hermes who cover their bags/products for life!

I work luxury retail, some SLG are worth the money. However, most leather goods are trend items and will be heavily marked down in the sale. The one brand i recommend as a starter if you"re buying SLG is Mulberry. Their leather ages really well and is worth the price point.

@@helenaursing9877 If you're in or around the London area, check out the The Restory. They will professionally clean your bag and remove that thin layer of dirt and grime that accumulates over the years. If you want your bag to last another 30 years it would be money well spent. Designer goods, if cared for properly could last forever and be passed down to family memmbers heirlooms.

I see your point but my husband was gifted a MK cardholder over five years ago. He is very rough on things and it looks brand new. I’ve had a Marc Jacobs wallet for years that I got on sale and it still looks great as well. This is what I don’t get when people talk about the quality of luxury. You can totally get durable, functional SLG’s at a lower price point. It’s much more about the name, but that’s the case with all luxury in the end. Either way you go you really only need one or two; I think she means don’t collect SLG’s because after a few you could definitely get a bag instead.

I have been binging designer/fake designer videos for the last two weeks now, and it is so refreshing to see someone talking truthfully and honestly without bias about these items. I think for a lot of people, especially people who can't afford the authentic items (yet!) like myself, it's so easy to glorify or overvalue designer brands and items. Thank you for being authentic and honest about these products, it really does make me feel so happy to know that it isn't all sunshine and rainbows on the other side of a designer receipt; but also to know which ones are worth the spend.

For the last 15 years, I have been a massive fan of Louis Vuitton, and when I heard you were mentioning that the quality of the brand was poor, I didn't think much of it - since I have always compared my new purchases with my first bag from LV. But then I thought about it, and started to notice that with my two latest purchases, that the leather started to rip - and that's something I never thought would happen. It's odd to me that leather can 'rip'. Anyway! I wanted to thank you for telling your honest opinion. If you didn't mention it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it.

I'd just like to throw out there that my first ever designer piece was a LV Mini Pochette in damier ebene. I've had this item for almost 3 years now and use it every single day. It has no tarnishing, no scratching, no wearing of the canvas or leather bit, and the interior is holding up splendidly. I guess everyone's experience with Louis Vuitton varies which is a shame, but I've now purchased three more pieces (two bags and one more slg) all of which have no quality issues. I wish Louis Vuitton could get it together because I love the brand so much; it makes me sad when others don't have a great experience with them. This was interesting to watch. Have a lovely rest of your week, Sophie. 😊💖

The video I needed but didn't know it. Thank you, Sophie! 💕I have been eyeing a Chanel Classic Flap forever, but as I am still doing my post grad I've always felt guilty about "spending money I don't have", but if I add up all the little things I've bought I could have just spent it all on the bag. My problem is that I think people would judge me for buying a bigger luxury item. While all of my friends and family have focused on buying a house and starting to have families, I have focused on my education. I did a year of my Bachelor in NY, my Master in Paris and my PhD in Bologna in Italy. It's kind of a joke that I am the poor well-travelled student and people say things like, "I'd love to have your life, but I have responsibilities". Maybe I'm being sensitive, but I think it's a bit offensive. I feel like I work hard and I deserve to reward myself, but perhaps I am wrong. My question is: how do you handle others people's opinions on buying larger luxury items? 💁🏻‍♀️

Tbh you seem to be the one who works harder. Academic life is expensive and you're in it for the long term. And is so, so tiring. With that dedication you deserve to treat yourself (if you can afford it)! If someone says something remind them of your long hours studying and researching!

I agree with roxemary. I find it irritating when people judge my lifestyle. We have completely different stories but like you, I worked really hard to have the kind of life that I have. (That said, I know I had a lot of support too). You should be very proud of your accomplishments and totally deserve to treat yourself. When people say they have responsibilities, I remind myself THEY chose that life. They chose to own a car, own a house, have lots of kids, etc. We are simply choosing to put our money towards different things. No right or wrong, only what's right for us individually. :)

And, you are also so brave! You are/ and were living in other countries, studying, living your life. And that's the whole point of the other people: "i would love to have your life, but I have responsibilities". So what? Do that before having kids, if not, grab them and go. You are not a tree... Believe me, you are having much more right now than other people have. You'll be really grateful in couple of years, that you didnt spend your time sitting at home, watching tv, washing up etc. Life goes on, doesn't matter what you do for living. Education is the best investment, enjoy it! :)

Have been lucky with Louis Vuitton smaller products, not any wear at all, very happy with them! I will add Chanel as I learn more about them, not jewelry though, costume is just that. Thanks for your help!

Good point again Dear Sophie! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. Indeed I went to CHANEL the past year and as I was not able to afford not even a WOC, I ended up with buying a cardholder... Do not regret though, but indeed it was not the Chanel bag 💼 I was dreaming off... 😬😬😬. Excellent 👌🏻 video to make us THINK 🤔! 🥰💋🥰💋

Great explanation. But as a guy, I don't carry handbags so I tend to splurge more on card holders and wallets!
