I loved the Fendi clutch and was like "I don't really use clutches" so I got a dupe from amazon. I've had it 5months and haven't even looked at it. Glad I went with dupe. It is frustrating to spend human American dollars on things that you like, yet maybe not wearing. I hate trying to sell these things, so I'm trying to be smarter about my style and wants. Great video 😍

[@PocketsandBowsTV]

Listen!! I wish I would've too! I love my fendi first but I rarely reach for it, mainly because it's a winter bag and secondly girl I don't even know LOL!!

[@jeanellreynolds7291]

Love your prospective and I agree with why you would pick the dupes.

[@CristaStylista]

I have a gold Bottega Pouch Bag Amazon dupe in gold, and it is amazing. They sold out super-quick, and I haven't seen them since! I'm eyeing an authentic pouch bag. Joan Clayton is 100% my style icon!

[@4Tresake]

Okay first: your nails are gorgeous! This was a great video. As someone who tries to buy more classic designer pieces (as in I want to keep forever) and with so many trendy designer pieces, it was good to hear your perspective on these items. Thanks for sharing!

[@PocketsandBowsTV]

Thank you so much!! I'm glad it was helpful!

[@GwendolynSolanke]

Thank you for the information. I loved this content. I already struggle with luxury purchases.

[@itslilnguyener]

Great video! I got my mini jodie in black when it first came out and love it. The price jump is crazy though and I'm glad I got it when I did. Because while I love it $2500 is not worth it in my opinion! So I will get another one but from amazon 😜

[@lasharondavis3138]

Loved this video and definitely agree on the statement about getting what you want for you. Love me some Bottega but personally have a limit of how much I will give a brand so a dupe here or there is fine to me. Definitely put the black/white pouch in cart just wish I had seen it earlier in the summer season. Brittany thanks but I truly was waiting to hear a word or two about that top because it definitely looks like it needs to be in my collection of pieces.

[@aalexlosingitin2010]

Definitely interested in the blouse!!!!

[@NYCttocs6973]

Me too ❣️

[@geemalia1420]

Curious about your thoughts on dupes of loewe puzzle bag, celine classic bag, and the mini kelly?

[@hickeful]

I Love Bottega and own some, mostly vintage hobo bags. They are so great and I love the leather and style. But I also got a dupe of the Jodie because I thought it may be just not a life bag for me. I got one and I am happy with it because it’s not a fake, just inspired. Great video, thanks❤️

[@she-she460]

You are one of the best dressed curvy influencers that I know. I enjoy your channel so much cuz you got Style.

[@PocketsandBowsTV]

Thank you so much! Dupes are great to try out different trends. I totally suggest that!

[@newyorkcutie]

This is the video I been waiting for. I feel creator’s always advise getting dupes but be buying the real. I will always buy the real because dupes are never my cup of tea. If I can’t afford the real I will pass on item or save my coin until I am able to buy the real. When it comes to shoes and bags dupes look cheap and you definitely can tell the difference if you are a real fashion girl. Not to say if you buy dupes you cant make the outfit pop but just not my preference 🤷🏽‍♀️. Now clothes I will go to Zara all day for clothes that carry trendy items but for example the Khaite cashmere sweater is a heavy coin but the dupe of that sweater looks horrible and the dupe could neva!! Thanks for sharing this content and continuing the conversation

[@PocketsandBowsTV]

I agree with both sides! I like getting dupes first just to see if I will reach for the item before I spend thousands, but one thing about me, I will buy both! Some ppl tell you to get a dupe and never buy them.

[@jaboubaa928]

I 100% agree dupe is different than Replica as well. I think buying a dupe is different than a Replica where it’s not the same vibe but they copy everything. I would rather save a get the real bag now for jewelry I might get here and there some replica but even that I never end up happy and always end up getting the real thing.

[@journeywithjell1594]
