I see some comments of people regretting buying bags because they didn’t hold value and I’m only 23 but I don’t buy any one of my bags with the thought it will hold value. I simply buy them because I love them ❤. I hate when something doesn’t work out for me and I have to sell it!

@bluestarstsl 3 ай бұрын

My only regret is not buying Chanel earlier when is so affordable 😂 now i think not worth the value anymore

@leebeaute 3 ай бұрын

Agree, Definitely not worth the current prices!

You can get some really good bargains on the preloved market if you do your homework. I bought a jumbo single flap from Fashionphile last week for close to a third of retail price and it’s in fantastic condition. The vintage ones from the 1990s are very much sought after and the prices have gone beserk but most people don’t realise that there’s a batch of bags from the mid 2000s up to 2008 which look like the current style but are still old enough to have the 24ct gold plated hardware. They are going for a fraction of retail prices, and vintage prices, at the moment because most people don’t know they exist. For the most part they aren’t advertised as being any different to newer bags so you have to know what to look for and spend time searching through listings.

When I was in my 25 I did spend so much money on designer stuff mostly bags .. now I’m 45 I regret wasting all that money on things that they don’t really hold value. Specially because I didn’t have lots of money. I’m investing for my retirement.. I think Is good to invest like you said 2 good bags..

@leebeaute 3 ай бұрын

Me too! At 50 reflecting on my past 30 years of purchasing designer goods, probably only 20 percent were wise, rest definitely a waste of money!!

@Renuka-hx9jc 3 ай бұрын

Me too but did this mistake with designer shoes, bought too many and as per my lifestyle I hardly go anywhere aside of supermarkets and malls. So all those shoes are collecting dust in my closet and when you add up it’s a lot of money wasted.

@angieN2288 3 ай бұрын

I have to agree but don’t beat yourself up! You’re only 45 and there’s still a long way to go.

@catherin77 3 ай бұрын

Relate a lot, but think it's all that rush when as a grown up you reach that financial independence and more about the notion being able to afford something (while you absolutely love the design of course). I enjoyed my first designer bags more than recently acquired purchases, on the other hand my YSL and LV bags increased in value without me realising it lol Smart to invest in 3-4 that you love including a timeless classic style, rest best invested for the future (buying a home or later on financial wealth)

Your number one point is the one I use to try and curb bag buying! There’s always something on my wishlist and I think I need a particular bag because I love the style…but then the new season comes around and no surprise, there’s a new bag I want 😄

@amb163 3 ай бұрын

That's a really good list. The only thing I would add is -- Never panic-buy. Give yourself at least a few days (if not a few weeks) to consider a new bag. Love at first sight can fizzle out really quickly, lol! Especially if you figure out later that your new bag doesn't even fit your phone.

@LUHOLIFE 3 ай бұрын

Exactly never panic buy! I live by that now.

Fantastic info, Amie! I, especially, like the idea of having pix of your outfits, so you can use them to make good handbag choices! I think that the best thing that I’ve learned is that I can only go to so many places/week where a luxury handbag is used. At this age, I might only go out up to 4x/week-ie. where I’m going to socialize or actually ‘hang out’ with people. Therefore, I don’t NEED 30 luxury handbags. I might WANT a few more, but, I don’t NEED them! 😉 Have a lovely week, dearest Amie! ❤👜❤🇨🇦

I started my Hermes journey before I can afford a birkin. I decided to get all my essentials from Hermes like blankets and work shoes and ready to wear. Nothing went out of style and I can wear it on any occasion and not covered in logos. Then when I was able to afford my first birkin I got my dream bag and color and size with no wait time because of the relationship I built with my SA. I skipped all the limited edition items from LV, and Chanel.

@meghans2403 3 ай бұрын

Excellent tips! The difference of items in person from the same brand with varying price points is a very good point. I am fortunate to live close to many boutiques and I now always go in person before choosing. Price can be deceiving!

@MichellebytheBay 3 ай бұрын

Interesting topic, Amy, thanks for making the video! When I’m looking at a new bag, I ask myself which bag in my collection would I not be able to wear if I was wearing this bag? What am I duplicating? I also have been curating to the point where if it’s not a brand classic piece, I don’t buy it. I will lose interest in a seasonal or trendy bag very quickly. The caveat might be a bucket bag or a seasonal bag.

@thelightersideofluxury8352 3 ай бұрын

You are so right on the sale items (and I agree the Chloe Marcie is the exception because it’s classic and the neutral colors also go on sale)….if a bag is on sale there is a usually a reason. Great video!🩵

@thqvega 3 ай бұрын

Great tips!! Just that not everyone goes for classic bag. I’m sure a group of us goes for individuality. I for 1, don’t like to look similar to most people and go for designs I like , and not becos if it is classic or not :) thus sale might be good! 😂

@littleindulgences7679 3 ай бұрын

Excellent advice and sooo timely for me. I am currently going back and forth between buying a Saint Laurent LouLou or the Puffer LouLou (both in medium) and I have been tempted to buy the LouLou preloved because I have found a great one from a trusted seller but honestly I know the puffer is more my style!

@pappyone6062 3 ай бұрын

The puffer for some reason is easier to use. It’s less bulky, I love the more easy west style amd one open pocket, the strap is a bit shorter for better crossbody and the snap lines up itself. I sold the small loulou because the flap is harder to close. I love my small puffer.

@melocoton7 3 ай бұрын

definitely pre loved. Of all my bags there is only one I bought new at full price and that was the LV World Tour Speedy. That's also a reason I will likely never sell it. It feels "mine". You'll take a 30% hit with most brands any time you want to sell something on. So if I already paid about 30% less to begin with I am less hesitant to sell a bag. The other bag I bought new was the Loewe Anagram tote, but I got it on sale (department store, not directly Loewe). Amazing bag and great quality. Will likely keep it for a long time but if I were to sell it, I don't think I'll lose too much money on it thanks to buying it at a lower price.

@Seemstobereal 3 ай бұрын

Over a period of years I have learned that I really like more practical bags from companies like LV, Celine or Loewe which I can use regularly as compared to the top end bags like the classic flap or H Kelly or Birkin.

@gurgonebad Ай бұрын

I had Chanel Envy for 11 years and never seem to save enough money to purchase one as every single time I have enough money to buy one the price would go up another 600 or $800. This year I decided to look through all my closet and sold more than half of the bags that I was not using and guess what? I was able to purchase. A Chanel classic flap!!!!

As I’ve gotten older and am busy working and in school the reality is I don’t like bringing my designer bags there. People are so judgey but it’s also not practical. Designer bags have lost their magic IMO. Then again I do have over 8 of them so I’m over it at this point.

Thanks for sharing these learnings. I am guilty of so many. I am considering buying a pre loved Chanel small CF in chevron pattern in caviar raspberry red color with SHW, I am getting it at a reasonable price. However I am not so sure about the chevron pattern as I am most used and inclined on diamond quilt and I already have 3 black Chanel bags. Any advice would be great! Thank you

Hi! I just watched your save or splurge video from years ago... What do you think about wallet on chains? Are they worth it to spend or no?
