This Is Why You SHOULD Go Into Luxury Stores (Even Without Money) 

id choose death before i chose entering a lux store lol

@@AGirlNamedVan Oh no! Don't feel like that, a luxury store is just a store, you have every right to go in!

"Goochie" You are one of the most low key hilarious people I watch.

Good video👌👌❤❤🙏🙏

Just registered. Is ACST American central standard time?

Thank you

ty!

Thank You ! This is the one !

👏👏

👏👏👏

Me too. I'd rather splurge on a lovely spa day than a handbag and it's alot cheaper even at a high end spa!

That’s not a reflection of Hermes. It’s a reflection of the Brazilian culture. I live in the US, but grew up in Brazil and worked for Cantão and Redley for many years when they were huge! First of all, people will treat you better there just because you are associated with the brand, even if you just work at a nice store . Easy to get an ego in that way, especially because you make friends with all the rich and influential people that shop there. So the sales people in Brazil that work in luxury stores do discriminate and there is a toxic culture going on for sure. I remember I was presented with a lookbook where my manager said I should look and act a certain way, and said I looked and acted “too suburban”. It messed with my head so much. Here, I go to Beverly Hills and people that work at luxury stores could care less if I seem like I have money or not, especially here in California where everyone dresses more casual, even the ultra rich. The consumers here do not make friends with the sales people in general. It’s like in and out, or if the sales person is such a phenomenal salesperson that they become the client’s brand concierge and some contact develop between them. Too bad you walked away from your scarf. Hope you can get another bonus and promotion and can go back to a better experience. 😊 Boa sorte!

Oi! Eu já passei por uma situação parecida numa loja do Boticário, acredita? Eu moro numa cidade muito quente então estava de shorts e chinelinho..... Fui provar ( para comprar) um Lily que está na casa dos 200 reais e a vendedora me olhou de cima a baixo e nem queira espirrar o perfume na fitinha pra provar. Vim embora, comprei pelo site e registrei uma reclamação formal contra a franquia da cidade do ocorrido!

Don’t blame the brand. I went scarf shopping at the Hermes store in Paris, and they couldn’t have been more polite or attentive.

Exactly! Terrible brand with horrible sustainability rating. I went to buy sandals in Lisbon, NO ONE even acknowledged my presence except for a security guard, lovely person. I'm so glad I never bought anything from them, besides designer things are for people with no self esteem, people who are comfortable with themselves and their lives support local small businesses like you did👍

@@eucianelelis4228 I respect your opinion, however that was not my experience :) I spent 3 months in Brazil and received only excellent service everywhere, except for Hermes 😅 That same day we visited other luxury stores and were greeted with smiles and offers to help.

Happy with your story 😊

That is a great story. Whether you are a customer or an associate you (we) should never be anything but kind to our fellow woman/man. It always, always, always pays off. Sometimes you even live to see it pay off. But, it always does! I am grateful to every associate or sales person or whomever who took the time and made the effort to show me kindness. I am also grateful for those who do not because it reminds me of how to behave.

I think it depends on the country. In the US, it usually doesn’t matter how casually you dress. In several european and asian countries though, dressing casually isn’t really common and some salespeople can make you feel uncomfortable.

Look at A call for an uprising and Jeremiah Cohen channels. These brands are all owned by satanists and paedophiles . They put their satanic symbols on the clothes and bags. If I was you, I would sell it. They should be ashamed of you and not the other way around

❤❤❤❤❤ Love this

Exactly!

Make sure to watch this video, I'll teach you how to deal with that.

Thats proplem happening to me in most stores so i start prefear to shop online the problem with it is that i prefear to check the item befour buying 🤦‍♀️

100 percent! I’m someone who struggles with social anxiety. I shop when I want my me time. If I wanted to be surrounded by people, I would be clubbing with my friends. I love mid range stores such as Brooks Brothers and Reformation, where you can have your you time, but have their great customer service at your disposal when you ask for help. Also mid range stores I’ve found have equivalent quality as my favorite luxury brands, but at a fraction of the price

Give her smile and make her feel wierd 🙂 automatically she is gonna stop ... if she asks any help say thank you 😊

Oh! Where was this and why did she assume you and friends could not speak Dutch?

You did the right thing! It's so important to have boundaries and to stand up for them

3 tips to live by!

Preach. This is just great life advice, regardless of where you are.

I was told this also from the store I worked at and it was so true! Old money dressed so quietly and no labels or branded clothing. They spent the most money in the store. Never ever judge a book by its cover.

True. The rich drive Range Rovers. The really rich drive Toyotas.😉

Typical in countries like New Zealand!

A lot of wealthy people dress down, you would suspect a thing and they want to keep it that way. Others may just not care about looking expensive. I mean look how Elon Musk dresses, not really the poster boy of class and high society.

@@Mmmmkaaay I have both thankfully❤ I keep my 2010 Toyota Camry as a reminder of where I started and the Range Rover supercharged my husband and I purchased a few years ago as a reminder that hard work pays off. I love these videos. Reminders that although we work hard, we deserve to be in these spaces and it’s okay to make designer purchases if you want without feeling guilty about it. Sorry for over sharing just wanted to say that. ❤

“It’s not about your wealth, it’s about your attitude” - this is incredibly valuable advice for me as a customer, thank you! 🛍

How did they know that you couldn’t afford to buy anything 🤔😏 ….so strange 🙄

I have the same situation, went to Chanel store in Niece and shop assistant ran after me just to open the door for me. I was dress in casual shorts and backpack as a tourist. That was nice experience

I'm so happy you found an empathic hairs. Many people don't seem to understand or care how even small kindness can make an enormous difference in someone's life.and

Hi fellow trichter :) I also have trich, it affects my eyelashes/brows, I would hide under ton of pencils and eyewear..until one day I just got over it. I call it being on my Mona Lisa era, where I might be missing some eyelashes or eyebrows, which is an absolute renaissance perfection :D

Maybe sweats was from Hermes 😁

Actually rich people don’t flaunt their wealth they are low profile types in public

​@@Angellady11 some do some don't. I consider myself sort of rich and I like to keep a low profile. I never dress in a way that you can tell I am rich, unless I go to an event, but for my day to day I look quite 'normal'.

Hmm, a bit strange as she as ordered it prior or maybe had a very long purchase history at the shop. So none of them judge her, because money spent speaks for her

I had client coming in lululemon sweaty from a class and buying 300K USD diamond earrings. Lady came for an appointment in a beach dress getting 2mil ring.

The others should watch and learn.

This is a good idea to get one’s feet wet with luxury shopping. You are correct that department stores are set up to allow for browsing, so it gives a person a chance to get used to the store.

Yes, I specially loved to go to one particular in Paris whenever I visited it

This is so true! Great point

Thanks!

Saludos ❤️❤️🇦🇷🙏

I think, that those who don't buy or not able to buy a bag!!! for 50 000€ are really, definitely 1st class people, then those cheated, who purchases bags!!! for such crazy money☹

I was at a Tanger Outlet and decided to go into a luxury store just because I could (to protect the innocent, I won't expose the store's name). The employees were verbally polite, but their body language spoke with such an impertinent manner. Regardless, I still walked about the store and browsed with a smile, even though I didn't buy anything.

If you are worried about being treated like a second-class person, you ARE insecure.

@@BearAndBunny0605 why not just say what store it was. Literally nobody will be affected by it

@@joanreynolds955 or maybe she had a bad experience, not all retail sales person are nice 😅

she missed out on her commission

I can vouch for that. I was with a friend at les Champs Élysées in Paris and she wanted to buy a wallet at the Louis Vuitton store for her stepdaughter back in the States. We waited on a long line, finally granted entry, and were subsequently ignored by every salesperson at every counter. My husband, who speaks fluent French, tried to assist, but to no avail. We did look like Americans but we felt like such un-persons. In the meantime, we noticed a lot of people sitting around on comfy chairs playing on their cell phones and being served glass after glass of champagne. I guess those were the preferred customers. After a half hour of this, my friend gave up and said she would just go to an LV store back in the States and get the wallet there, but she thought it would've been a nice touch if she could have told her stepdaughter she had bought it in Paris.

Im sorry you had such an experience:(

I am so sorry 😢

@@verysophia it means a lot to feel validated. I am sure I am not the only one.

@@tessy28 thank you. There are some stores which are better than others.

@@Rozumarix I would agree... some stores make me feel like that!

The Heathrow arcade is my shopping Achilles heel! I seem to always have a new bag, scarf or shoes when flying through Heathrow =). I dress like a vagrant when I fly (Sorry Anna!), but I would say I receive neutral to OK service in general. Sorry your experience was negative.

I get such a kick out of the unjustifiable arrogance of *some* sales associates----they earn less money than majority of the people there to buy the products yet act superior. LOL

I went to the Heathrow Chanel to actually buy pumps..the assistants were so rude that I decided against buying them from them.

Same I never felt insecure and never felt like I'm not worthy to enter a high-end shop. In my experience I've never met a snobby and rude sale associate at any luxury shops. It's usually at those fast fashion shops like GUESS, Forever21, Victoria's Secret and H&M I've experienced shitty sales associates lol.

I am surprised to know so many people feel intimidated by anyone, including a glorified cashier😂

In this case it's a lack of service. So that means it's not as luxury as it tries to seem

I had this in a Parfum store. I was dressed in a wellensteyn coat and jeans and leather Boots. I live next to the store. Since today I don’t understand why the security guard followed me like a criminal through the store. He was standing behind me all the time. I promised myself if this ever happens again, I will be very loud and clear about my disappointment!

Thank you for sharing this!

Im glad you are like that, but not everyone in the business are, most of my male friends work in designer stores and they all talk about how they comment with their colleagues on someone’s way of dressing or the items they carry as to see if they have money to spend or little or non, not always are they nice in their comments, bare in mind most of them can only acquire the cheaper items, even with their 30% discount . I dont feel intimidated at a luxury store but I definitely understand why some people are ❤

@@marisamorais3150 sorry to say it, and I'm not trying to sound harsh, but your friends sound very shallow and like they are self conscious about something like perhaps their status and intimidated by money and that's why they are trying too hard and appear to look down on others. Often when people ridicule others it is because it is something they strongly dislike about themselves. They seem to have the insecurity of not feeling like they actually fit in themselves, trying to be nouveau riche but without the funds. My ex-boyfriend is a very specialized doctor and one of the tops in his field. He has also been a professor in college in addition to having a private practice and he has written several peer reviewed and cited research papers. He does not dress the part outside of work and to look at him in his day to day world, you would never know he had all that going on. He comes from generational wealth and they do not make a show of it. He has clothes tailor made without designer labels showing. He will walk around with shoes so worn you'd think he dressed sloppy outside of work. He wears things to death but when he buys he makes sure it is top quality. He collects luxury vehicles and classic cars and his kids have luxury vehicles. He goes on nice vacations when he wants and he has some celebrity friends and some who are attorneys who represent them. He can be very generous but does not make a show of it and keeps it very low key. His daughter's walk in closet is stacked with Chanel shoes and she collects different designer clothes and handbags and accessories. She left quite a bit behind when she went off to college but not after she went shopping for her move. Apparently she feels she has to fit in with her friends and that's why she does so much to have a certain look. She is at the phase when she is very impressed with celebrities and likes to hang around her father and certain friends of his. When the doctor walks into a place he buys what he wants and gets out. If he is buying for someone he is waiting on he is patient but if your friends were to be dismissive of him they would be making a huge mistake. His spending habits are unpredictable. He can drop a couple hundred or so on a meal for two but then at the next stop he will decide he would rather order the Mercedes Benz parts and install them himself than pay for the labor.

If you saw me you would think that i wouldn’t spend but i actually do coz i need to buy stuff for my boss 😅

Albilevizm ,, i know too hahaha if the person look around try to find products for other people they would look clueless and confused but idk (again) i just know you'll buy if you find the right products

@marissa but actually you know what ? We are a sales assistant that got minimum Wage really envy and love how you guys the person who can afford luxury items dressed. They just have an aura, maybe her dress actually cheap but look amazing in my eyes, and don't forget many people project their insecurities through you too, that's what your male friends did

and yet there she is only working as a sales assistant which is nothing impressive. You could be an engineer. A scientist. A nurse or doctor. A university lecturer. Someone with an education and worth.

Oh wow, what's wrong with sitting? Crazy

Incredibly wise advice. It’s up to us to simply be confident but always polite.

Awesome!!!!😂😂😂

This is why, after working fast food, clothing retail, and as a waitress during high school and college, I'm going to insist my children work the same type of jobs when they are old enough. I have never left a garment on the floor or inside-out on the hanger in a fitting room, nor have I been condescending to a waitress, bc I know exactly what those jobs entail and how much money they are (not) making for that work.

You are very right. I ended up as a shop assistance (in museums, after going to university) and it's really a dehumanizing job. Not only you have bad timetables, but you feel totally useless, a robot, humiliated by clients who think you're just a waste with no culture at all. Sadly there's bad days when you end too tired that you discharge your frustration into a normal client. And I really dislike that to happen, cause everyone is human, me and the client. But there's clients that really enjoy making you feel bad.and then someones comes and treats you as an human, with just nice, quiet and understanding behaviour, and you just want to cry cause the contrast is intense.

Oh dear. I sew myself and love looking at nice fabric...including upholstery and other home decor fabrics. Some of them are really quite spectacular. With a price to match. Doing the mental math for your windows made me a feel little faint 😅. Nice curtains are such an eyecatcher in a turn of the century appartement, though. And unlike with a special occasion dress or something, you get to enjoy them every day for years.

Please tell me why!

​@@gigic.7809 As a Interior designer I'm dying to know as well why you were ushered in the back room! I love to get my hands on some sumptuous textiles !

My guess would be the ceiling height, but idk.

@@hollyholman6375 yes because of the ceiling height!

Just remember money you can find but you? cant be bought 😘❤

This. 💯

“I earn more money than those shop assistants.” You seem to be placing value on how much money you make (that is, you make more than the shop associates so technically you’re higher up on the social hierarchy). Why even have this mentality? They are being judgemental. No need to stoop to their level.

I wouldn't want to spend my hard earned money in a store where the salespeople treated me rudely.

Yes.... Not many things were "not for us" also, I remember.
