[@mzmerryweather]

That hamster bag cracks me up every time!! I imagine you wearing it, someone is staring..and you pull a carrot out and start munching... Great video Michele~ Have a wonderful day 😊

[@Yikes702]

I really love it when Michelle does a dark lip and slightly darker eye. ❤

[@stephb3321]

💯 agree. The makeup is on point. 👍

[@julieswann9729]

It brought tears to my eyes thinking of the hamster bag bringing a smile to your face. How many purchases end up giving us such joy? I love that

[@barbung3628]

I have to say that this is the best use of that room that you could have come up with. Great idea to make it a versatile guest room with California Closets so that you can store overflow & use it this way for filming! I am a longtime watcher and have seen the evolution of this room. The way you have arranged everything for this video is absolutely perfect ❤

[@geodegal5024]

I love how much enjoyment you get from your purchases, and how well you know yourself and your own style. As far as the "fails" are concerned, we all have at least one piece in our closet that makes us ask: what was I thinking? I've learned that when I'm on the fence about a clothing purchase, I always ask myself: "where are you wearing this?" If I can't come up with an answer that translates into my lifestyle, I leave it for someone else. Final note: that hamster bag found a great home ❤

[@didiqquintana600]

I’m catching up on your videos and so glad . Love these ❤

[@Allfeisty]

I LOVe everything! Especiallly the white shirt. So perfectly simple but with an edge and truly does go with everything.

[@jesse2094]

Love that you have your own sense of style and aren’t afraid to own it! I think the foot sneakers are hilarious. Also still in awe of your Prada haul and trip - whatvan amazing experience.

[@andreeapopa7317]

the sacai skirt and the prada kilt...

[@barbarasmith6229]

I’m so impressed with your technical knowledge of fabrics and how they work, plus talking about clothes being cut on the bias.

[@ShweMyaukMyauk]

She had a long career in that dept

[@terris2817]

You have impeccable style❤

[@wildwildwest1662]

I feel like I am in a classroom and learning from teacher Michele .🙏🙏🙏.

[@annemariec7659]

Appreciate you telling us the favorites and fails. I remember each piece when you purchased them and it was fun to see what worked and the few that didn't. My absolute favorite is the kilts. I LOVE the look of both as someone who like the feminine/masculine dress style. 😊😊😊😊

[@FeisReality]

Thanks for sharing your best and worst! My best purchase is maybe considered too basic, but the chanel ballerinas in lambskin are just amazing. ✨🤎I’ve worn them so much and they elevate most of my outfits, both at the office but also casually when doing errands and exploring cities during vacations. They are so comfortable to walk in and give me joy every time I use them. They are just really pricey, but I think they are classics and after looking for them for almost 4 years, I’m so happy that I finally got them this year🥰

[@aliciamolloy5948]

Hi Michele thanks for another Mishmas video🎄🎄🎄

[@TheMicheleWang]

Happy holidays!

[@Fengjessica]

I love that you love your purchases and not swayed by others/social media ❤

[@penelope-bochra3871]

Michelle the Prada coat looks lovely just left open over the anorak

[@catnip4587]

Oversized coats are in. Wear it

[@AmermanEversley]

Nothing we can do about fakes…I could care less how many people have the same bag as myself…that makes it really spoken for.. I hate when people say they don’t want a certain purse because everyone has it….well everyone has a hole are we gonna get rid of ours because of that? Everyone one does something different with their *hotdups* for example their style, your style will set you apart.

[@pamohriner6436]

What a treat- watching this video. That bucket hat is so cute but I would probably not get much use from it either. I love that you share your bags with your mom. My daughters can wear mine too. I feel good if they get more use. Miu Miu and Loewe are my favorite brands along with Bottega- I feel like they are quite luxury.

[@cakechopper]

Love your makeup in this video; the lipstick looks fantastic on you!

[@pappyone6062]

I love many of your goodies, especially the skirts and bags. I now want that Loewe bracelet bag Michele! And I love the donut strap on it. I really hope they come out with it again and in more colors as I will be visiting Spain in the new year and I want to get it there. Love buying from brands in their home country when I travel. Hope you have a very happy new year!

[@niloufarroohandeh]

Michele you are so beautiful and you have a perfect skin 😊

[@DuneGlam]

Rather long video, but not boring and I love the brutal honesty!

[@uchinawa70]

It is so nice to listen to someone who knows fibre and clothing structure. Thank you from a fibre nut.

[@louisesharpy]

Right. She was a knitwear designer. Love it

[@madelynsclosets]

Michele!! Dearest! I lovahhhhh the Prada black nylon coat on your worst list. It soooo chic when oversized! YES! rethink! Everything else totally agree with except try that Dior hat again. I think it's a hat for all time. It just takes a a little extra effort to style it...but I think so worth it. I see your initial desire with both the jacket and the hat. I say stick with both. They will stand the test of time. xo

[@sallyjones9702]

Yes!!! 100% agree!

[@christinaoconnell8288]

Wonderful Mishmas! Your Pharrell purchases inspired me, your Pharrell knit beanie which led me to purchase a Loewe anagram beanie which I think is my favorite purchase of 2024.

[@jessr.9448]

I look forward to this video every year!! Love your style, you’ve really inspired me to buy and wear clothing that I like even if it’s not “in style”. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@AmermanEversley]

Thanks for the video. I will say that fakes have been around for yeaaarrrrssss. I think it’s just brought to light now because of social media. I’ve seen LV and Chanel fakes and know how to get them if I wanted (Asian community) since like the 1990s. So it’s nothing new at all. If it seems a lot maybe people are just more aware with educational videos on authentic vs fake versus before. I wouldn’t let fakes and replicas change my mind on purchasing a bag or not. If I like it, I will buy it. And the fakes are never the same as the real ones. If people can’t afford it and are happy with *hotdups* to each their own. My favorite bag is the classic flap. Next is the Kelly, then birkin. I know many Filipino aunties that have replicas to all. And it doesn’t change my mind on them. If you look at the Asian community NEARLY EVERY LUXURY BRAND bag has fakes, including business affinity and trendy

[@charlottetrujillo2207]

Love all the Pharrell choices you made! Love the Loewe skirt and the kilt.

[@3monstersmom]

I love all your purchases. I love watching your content. Thank you for sharing

[@solopenny]

Loved this video! And I'm IN LOVE with those Prada black and white loafers!

[@meggiegreen6415]

Wow! Oh! WOW! As to describing clothing or anything you really the best on the internet. I can listen and watch your videos for quite awhile. It’s just a such a pleasure. Thanks for making my days so enjoyable. Merry Christmas 💖

[@bookmonkey1712]

I'm new to your content, but I'm lovinggggg it here. Your style is surprisingly silly 😲😊. So far your looks all come across as very polished, elevated casual 💯 for the everyday, so I was EXTREMELY amused by the Hamster purse. Also, I desperately love Prada and hope to visit their flagship one day! Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@lspl8802]

Take the Prada coat for Tailoring Michele. It’s so beautiful and you might get more wear out of it once it fits. It’s so lovely. If Prada offers free tailoring then there is nothing to lose on it.

[@YippyZippyZingZing]

Excellent overview ❤ love all of your favs (yes, even the ‘toe’ shoes 😊) …and we all have had misses like the few you have had too!

[@tzoe875]

I know this wasn’t a makeup video, but I’m mesmerized by your lipstick in this video! It’s so pretty. If you happen to recall what it is please let me know. I wish my budget included Prada, Chanel and Loewe.

[@everydayfefe]

I touched the screen so I could feel the leather on the Loewe bracelet bag, and it paused the video.😂😂😂😂😂

[@sparklefarter]

That kills me but, totally understandable as to why you havent worn the Dior tweed bucket hat. It's gorgeous and would love to take that hat off your hands. 🤭 Def try to wear it once during this season! Possibly for a date night or an event!

[@suzannebouse8747]

Love your bags and shoes Michelle I’ve got to thank you for introducing me to the dipytique hand exfoliator never heard anyone talking about it in Scotland but fabulous product and also now a fan of the softening one as well Merry Christmas and happy new year from Scotland xxx

[@rachelschillinger]

Oh my god the hamster. It is SO cute and im laughing out loud...and you are so right, having something that puts a smile on your face IS the point! I also adore the camel Prada anorak and the camel Chanel loafers. And ghe fishnet shoes!

[@juliel4096]

Oh no, now I have to buy these items! Loved this review and so glad you were able to use many of the items you bought for your trips. that hamster bag is super cute…

[@simonecarter6506]

The Dior bucket hat is great. Leave it out near the door and put it on when you are going to the Strip. The black tones will work with most of your wardrobe. Treat it more casually and don’t think of it as “special”.

[@annemarietimmerman7213]

Your style is beautiful!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩 Have a wonderful Christmas, dear Michele!!!❤🎄

[@simonecarter6506]

Keep the Prada coat. See what Prada say re alterations. I think it would look great styled open and not done up and belted. The colour way is great over the camel anorak.

[@arossi3702]

You are gorgeous! Skin and bone structure ❤

[@barbarasmith6229]

My clothing aesthetic is completely different from yours, Michele (not the makeup aesthetic, oddly); however, I totally enjoy your enthusiastic pairings and joy (i,e. The derby loafers and the kilted skirt). I love how you explain the juxtaposition of masculine and feminine touches and how that appeals to you and your sense of fun. Please keep it up!

[@Susan-kw3dt]

I think if you could get that black Prada coat altered, it could be more “everyday” wearable. If it were more fitted, you could easily throw on over jeans and dress it down. Just a thought! 😉

[@kathleenhorn792]

Happy Mishmas and Winter Solstice!❄️❄️

[@irmabeadles3739]

My favorite is the Prada nylon bag. And the Chanel stripes it’s giving French coast vibes its awesome!

[@dranandame]

Hi. Can we get info on the sweater? ❤

[@cshopper1346]

Wear the Dior hat with a white blouse and a pair of jeans!🎄🎄

[@alyshal417]

Yaaaaassssss! Watching with my morning coffee and finally putting up tree ❤️❤️love these long vlogs. And the declutters. Thank you for breaking your back for us 😂 but seriously. Please be careful, we need a whole Michele 💕🩷

[@JoyfulFreckles]

I love your style, what a great round up. That Loewe bag is stunning, for some reason i always thought it was a satin fabric bag due to the glossiness and softness of the pleats!

[@wendybrown3502]

Loved this! Beautiful favorites!❤😊

[@zhenshan456]

wow, amazing 2024 lux summary Michele! Glad you find your passion and a also can afford those lux. I am on the process of finding my true passion after retired. Still working on it.

[@wynorawishum5860]

Great video. Love seeing what you ended up liking most and not liking.

[@debbiebayani]

I’ve been loving your Prada collection and picked up the brown crossbody today at the Prada boutique in Singapore.

[@cshorca1125]

I loved that Prada cardigan in yellow! It is such a beauty. I have been eyeing it for a months now

[@Ellenspncer]

Loving these Mishmas Videos also your nails are beautiful love the color you been wearing 🌼🌼🌼🌼

[@zabindhanji]

Hi, I just came across your channel and was interested in the topic. I do think that you should give the Prada coat another chance. Go to Prada and see what they suggest in terms of alterations. I think that it fits your aesthetic.

[@teyataom]

Merry Mishmas, dear Michele❤

[@bonniegeppert3912]

We have had four hamsters Mable, Franklin, Elvis and Ashie. 🐹 absolutely love the bag!❤

[@ErinLOVESmakeupxoxo]

Thank you for sharing where the pajamas are from!!

[@user-hc8dh5tx5w]

I hope you try to wear the tweed hat this winter. It’s cute!

[@ClaraZeela]

Love Simone Rocha and Sacai! I had so many of their pieces then gained weight - so mad at myself ! Love all your choices !

[@cathy3546]

The camel hair anorak is my favorite. It is very classy. I could not wear that colour.😢

[@marthastahl-po8yv]

I adore the Hamster bag for the very reason you cited: he makes you smile. Isn’t it important as an adult to still wear or carry a fun item? And the Prada Adirondack is perfection. Loved this video. Happy Holidays!

[@larissahostetter2335]

My mom would always say, with t he clothes or robe that I would wear all the time "my wubby" lol love that you say it too!

[@ladyesther]

54:36 "So if I just stand there and I don't walk and I don't move...they're fine..." Lol. I have tried a few designer shoes and have not found them to be that comfortable.

[@jenzerr8856]

I’m not a brown bag gal… strictly black. But that miumiu bag is GORGEOUS. I’ve been eyeballing the ferragamo hug bag. But now I’m like…. Oh. Wait a sec. 😍

[@susiehoyle6113]

My favourite item is the Prada black coat, I would take it to Prada to alter

[@lauragalek]

I was going to suggest a video on what purchases haven't worked for you and here it is... thanks.

[@chriskrupadowns5777]

I purchased that same Prada Re-Nylon bag this year and it is a great travel bag! I got black. I also bought those Prada shoes you didn't like and after my try on, I returned them for the same reason. I am tempted by the Chanel loafers! Great video.

[@TheMicheleWang]

It really is the best travel bag! Maybe I need black too... 🤣 xoxo

[@liorab3002]

Love your videos very much because your 😊personality ❤❤😊❤every time waiting and know I’ll enjoy

[@mariavicente7669]

Todas as suas compras são elegantes! Tem muito bom gosto. Bom Natal 🌲 Beijinho

[@mpbeautyinsight]

I was surprised not to see your Zimmerman lace blouse as a fav (as it was mine !! ☺)

[@Mrssandydoo]

Loving these long videos❤

[@TheMicheleWang]

Glad you like them!

[@Newyorkhollywoodandvine]

Merry Mishmas

[@janediamond-tm2zk]

Take the coat to the Prada tailor and have them assess it!!

[@87HMoore]

I love your style!

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thank you so much!

[@aidamariedoques805]

Minecraft... thats what that sweater reminds me of. I used to be a nanny for this kid who played this all the time. Anyway, Im a new subscriber....and im loving your content. From Alberta, Canada.

[@ghadeeral888]

This is my comfort vids for sure ❤ can u recommend me basic casual loafers? I’m eyeing on YSL and prada.. maybe miu miu as well 👀dunno

[@Kitakita87]

Great finds! This was an informative video. That Prada is really a practical bag. I have a vintage one and I use it often. Do you notice how many times you say “I love this so so so much or I love this bag I love this bag”. Two or three times is more than enough. Just an observation but it can be tiring.

[@shelleyeatz]

I’m totally planning to buy the Prada renylon bag!

[@reneklein6049]

Good morning, Michele. The Golden Caramel coffee sounds wonderful. Pharrell is so cool. Great sweater. And I love the Celine vest. That blouse with the pearls, rosettes, and sash, is magnificent. I have the mesh shoes, but they're Nordstrom's not designers. I still love them. One has the buckle, the other the cross strap. Thank you for the inspiration. I'm crazy over the Schiaparelli sneakers. The Miu Miu sneakers are cute too! I have high arches, so I don't usually ever have a problem with shoes. I would definitely take it the coat to Prada and see if they can tailor it. You've got nothing to lose. Sorry that the Prada shoes are uncomfortable. Darn. I'd sell them on Poshmark or Mercari. I fell in love with the Chanel Maryjane crystal shoes when you first got them. It's a shame that they also hurt. Is it possible to return the hat or exchange it? Thanks, Michele. Great video!! ❤❤

[@lovetopisces]

For the brown bag and the whote shoes get matching leather color markers = great for small dings and scuffs. Also for the white cleaning with melamin pad soaked in cold water freshes them up quite a bit.

[@kimberlylware950]

The toe bone thing with the shoes is brutal, each step. The black Mary Janes make me sad though, they are so cute!! ( minus the bow for me). I know exactly what you mean. Again, each step.

[@jh115]

As a Brit, those black and white loafers will always remind me of Florence in 'The Magic Roundabout' lol! xx

[@applecrumble8625]

My favourite kind of video!!! 😍

[@Bdhstl95]

Love the bracelet bag but with the metallic ends. So cute!

[@ZurieRae]

You went to see usher and didn’t feature it? 😮 love that you went! Hope you enjoyed the show!

[@Sky-my1zl]

the prada coat still looks good on you

[@stephb3321]

I am also an 80’s child. Don’t forget those popular Ocean Pacific anoraks! Stripes halfway down the jacket. Seemed like every kid at my school had those. 😊

[@YippyZippyZingZing]

❄ ⛄ Happy Mishmas! ⛄ ❄ …Day 21! ❤

[@kempmcarthur2318]

This is making me wanna get a Prada piece 🤩

[@sea_g0at]

i cannot wait for the hamster name announcement. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Tweegrrl]

Your Chanel crystal ballet flats are a work of art more than a shoe. 😄

[@virginiajackson8437]

❤❤❤❤ I want that Dior hat😮😮😮😅😊😊 I would wear it all the Time 😂😂❤ I live in Washington state & it would be perfect 🥰 💞 not in the rain of course but it gets super clid here by the water & I would wear it everywhere 😊 church, grocery stores, shopping 😊😮❤❤ walking around downtown absolutely stunning hat I might have to save & get it !!😂😂😂😊❤

[@latherandlace]

We used to open one gift Christmas Eve and everything else in the morning, but now that all 4 of my kids have a spouse or a partner, my daughter splits Christmas every other year spending Christmas at home or inlaws. This year, we all gathered at my house on Saturday and baked, then on Sunday for Christmas with 3 of my kids and their partners and three of my 9 grandchildren. On Christmas Day, I will go to my sons house and give gifts to my step granddaughter, her partner, and my new step, great grandson. So, its a big blended family. Oh, yesterday I went to brunch with 2 of my kids and my grandkids. Unfortunately, one of my sons and 4 of my grandchildren live in Texas. Last year, he came and brought my oldest of his kids for 5 days and left on the 23rd. It was awesome because it had been 10 years since they'd been here. Next time, I have to head to Texas because I haven't met my youngest granddaughter!❤ My daughter is 11 weeks pregnant with their first child. So I will have 10 grandchildren and my son and his partner are trying to get pregnant! I'm guessing I'll end up with 13 or 14 grandchildren. And as of now, it's weird to have a step great grandson. She was very rebellious and wanted nothing to do with family and now she does.

[@larissahostetter2335]

Love Pharrell too!

[@nancydushay5744]

Michele I got the hamster just as you did…….Everyone has to says something about it……Have a Wonderful Holiday…… we named mine Hollyberry XOX

[@Soleils]

I'm happy the hamster got a shout out. ❤
