Seeing Michael’s fashion evolution over the years lets me know just how much he loves, respects, admires and appreciates the work you do, Karen. That’s a real gift. You two are a real dynamic duo!

[@michelles2299]

Yep man servant

[@GabriielaElectromecanico]

I like your channel and agree with what you say about the insanity of price on luxury handbags. Not bragging but I can easily afford the real deal but I chose not to. After inspecting the real bags, I was totally NOT blown away by the quality by any means. Im totally ok with having *jklux* . I'd rather with smart with my money than blowing it on luxury items. Thank you for bringing this to light.

[@sandykerr60s]

I love it when Cassie and Nii do it because he is so disinterested generally but manages to have very particular opinions once per year, that always surprise Cassie. Michael has good, strong opinions all year through and he kind of enjoys this so he's not just trying to get it over with as quickly as possible - he's having some fun with it. I love hearing from both these guys.

[@shelsgyal4305]

My hubby is pretending to be sleep but he is watching along lol Now we need Michael's best and worst purchases!

[@KarenBritChick]

I was thinking of that

[@StewieLaemmel]

You look very comfortable. In addition, I really like your previous video guide on shopping - it would be great if you can continue this series elsewhere. *jklux*

[@RubyyHerold]

When made with Chinese leather you never know where it comes from or what the leather is made of *jklux*

[@GabriielaElectromecanico]

I love your voice! Thanks for sharing your lovely *jklux* bag / wardrobe collection :) I actually love how you store your collection and definitely an inspiration for me in my future home

[@CAM-nn4bx]

My favourite thing of 2024 is watching Michael’s style evolve, it’s been a great transformation 😁

[@KarenBritChick]

This!

[@GernotAppelhoff]

En el momento en que vi el bolso *hotdups* supe que tenía que tenerlo.

[@KiiranDunham]

Love watching your vlogs especially the ones you make of my local *hotdups* store. So cool seeing how you think when you are in there .

[@BenedettaAuris]

*hotdups* I love you so much and watching your videos brightens up my day

[@GabriielaElectromecanico]

The variety of textures in the *jklux* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

[@RunningErrands-np7ju]

Michael's taste is SPOT ON imo. And, huge drum roll for that INCRED. YSL msgr W.O.W. ‼️😑. U 2 ROCK!!!

[@andie9762]

Firstly, I loved that you acknowledged Cassie. Secondly, it’s so interesting to listen to this Michael who is so assured in his opinion. Wow!

[@cywoods60]

NO He should not try on the Tabi

[@beautifulnour]

Totally agree 👍

[@mariellaecheverri3551]

Michael is a Saint! Thanxs Karen❤

[@sohogrunge]

yall are such a gorg couple. goals fr

[@helenbarton5138]

What a fantastic guy your Michael is. He is on the way to being YOUR fashion guru. Loved this so much.xoxoxo

[@susanma4899]

I would've chosen the. brown leather jacket as the best! I've been crazy about it ever since you bought it.

[@BenedettaAuris]

Girl. That *hotdups* bag, you look amazing carrying it!! I love it!

[@Jenanne13]

I have loved Margiela boots for years so it makes me happy that you two love them as well. Michael is the best. Love your style; you’re an icon.

[@KarenBritChick]

I'm glad you like it!

[@GabriielaElectromecanico]

Young Lady, you spoke my feelings about buying look alike before spending money on the designer to sit on my closet shelf ( been there and done that too many times) Thank you , and I just subscribed to your channel, love your reviews and research *jklux*

[@karenadams6287]

what a great couple you guys make.

[@deborahrose7047]

You are such a lovely couple, so nice

[@KarenBritChick]

Thank you 😊

[@silviasauc8570]

bravoooooo Michael!!!❤ my favorite couple❤❤

[@cindyguggino-pn4uc]

I love vintage bags too!!! That alligator bag is a beauty! Love it! Best in show for sure, because it is a forever bag. ❤

[@KarenBritChick]

Definitely a forever piece!

[@cb4664]

People sleep on Tods but they have some of the best craftsmanship among shoes and their bags are beautiful. Tods and Ferragamo are my top as far as quality.

[@KarenBritChick]

Agreed.

[@LaurenSpaights]

Wholeheartedly agree!

[@ozywomandius2290]

Yep, I saw those and realized I’ve only cheap knockoffs all my life

[@RubyyHerold]

No one has the right to be offended by what you do with your money, you work for it, so where you spend it is entirely your choice. Enjoy your *jklux* and don’t feel guilty

[@GernotAppelhoff]

Love thiss..every summer I pull out my little black *hotdups* clutch and this summer I'm coming out with new heels so that will be my summer wear

[@TyRhooooone]

Would love to see him try the tabis!

[@noneyah3529]

That boot is Stunning

[@tracymason2384]

I adore you two!

[@jadefreeman8901]

So fun love the way he doesn’t want to hurt your feelings ❤❤❤

[@dinapawlow1622]

Michael, your fashion acumen is impressive! Such a lovely, loving banter between the two of you. ❤

[@leanebony]

Karen no doubt about it you have style and flair when it comes to fashion. You always make it work. I do agree mostly with Michael on his selection, we both seem to have to same taste in fashion. Great vid.....love getting MIchael's feedback .

[@tovaschonbeck2372]

Michaels skin routine!! He looks amazing!!

[@iLoveLeatherNYC]

Love when you have Michael on. He has good taste, after all he picked you, lol. These kinds of videos are fun, may I ask you pull out, organize (put all on a clothing rack?) and /or tray what we are going to look at for each category? He didn't want to be critical (and hurt your feelings), but you did ask him for his opinion - - let the man do what he is suppose to do. He's a gem.

[@janicehall82]

I think Michael was on point! Fun video!

[@KiiranDunham]

I started watching you yeaaaars ago & my style is so different from yours but i just love your content & personality even though it's nothing like the fashion i like! love you! *hotdups*

[@danijela7998]

Michael is such a great guy! Together you are a wonderfl couple! wish you all the best 😍

[@yvonnedozier5468]

Glad you took the other pants off I like the pants Michael picked

[@kashkakent3511]

Yes… try the Tabis

[@harryandthehippychick]

Oh I loved this video so much! I’m impressed with his knowledge of fashion but then again look at who his teacher is!!! I loved this so much now we just need to get him to try on a pair of tabis 😂

[@sunnysideup33]

I'm a bit sad, that we can't see the 2-3 jeans on you Karen. But ... that video was great fun

[@AJ-jt1xp]

The haircut is a crime, somebody needs to pay that, sorry! Other than that, i agree with all his rankings ❤

[@stephaniec3118]

Love your hair 😍and your husbands 😊❤

[@Star-tw4yy]

Agree with all of his choices😊And of course, love how all of the pieces look on you…Omg, that blazer is Gorgeous. Ingrid

[@cmomo02]

I looooooooove Michael

[@fragutazbirciog4244]

As ucide pentru cizmele alea cowboy!😂cele mai frumoase din câte am văzut!sunteți minunați amândoi!Sărbători fericite!

[@eonarts]

I LOVE the cowboy boots and they NEVER go out of style!

[@KarenBritChick]

@@eonarts ever

[@milicaradil7711]

Ok I totally agree with the worst shoes 2024😳🥰

[@icemeoutlikeelsa]

That Saint Laurent bag is so cute but I HATE that they put canvas straps. Would it kill them to put a leather strap. Maybe I should buy it and take it somewhere to get replaced.

[@dr-k1667]

I love hearing from Michael especially after watching both of you for YEARS and seeing him blossom into who he is today. Thanks to Cassie ( just subscribed recently to her) for inspiring this video!

[@janeofalltrades1976]

The cowboys boots are a keeper. They’re Amazing!!! Works of art!!!

[@367Play]

Cowboy boots here for 30+ years and remain my fave. When part of our personal style hits its life as a current trend, we are seen as trend followers 🤪 Then when the trend fades, we are seen as out of style. Then when the trend is long past and we are still wearing our personal style that’s when people get it. The fun thing is not caring, because all along we are dressing for ourselves.

[@marionmcgovern1845]

Loving this! I love your dynamic and how your love for fashion and style have rubbed off on Michael. He has obviously been listening as your own journey has evolved. My hubby is clearly listening to me too after 34 years😂... Out Christmas shopping and I picked up a skirt for myself for over the festive period... he had to tell me to put it back, he had already bought it for me for my Christmas... oops, that's one surprise gone 🤦‍♀

[@benitacarnes5241]

No on trying on those boots. Agreed with him about those jeans or whatever they’re called. Love that coat! ❤

[@AbrahamBenitez-z4e]

Yesssss! He should try on the shoes.👞

[@ozywomandius2290]

Y’all are always a joy! I do want Michael to try the tabis, btw. Such a divisive look!! They look like sth my partner would have in a fantasy life 😄 thanks for the fun!

[@Mialamorena1]

THIS is so much fun!!! It's like window shopping with you guys!! Thank you Karen and Micheal for a GREAT watch of a video!!!

[@RunningErrands-np7ju]

K, I'm just devastated for Michael's hair cause we all hate a 'rough cut'!! I think he needs to find a "London's type cutter he can ' contract with that specializes in SCISSOR OVER COMB work. All will be well and this MUST be dialed in ASAP in my humble opinion. ,👃🌲💚✌️

[@angelenawilson1589]

I have a request to bring back your curly fro wig ❤❤ It’s so fabulous like all your other wigs but we haven’t seen it in soooooo long. U were sportin’ that look when I first discovered u on KZbin and thought omg this woman is just so stylin’ and profiln’ and she so reminds me of Tina Turner with that hair!

[@gloriaevans5693]

Michael is a very smart young man he has style he don’t even know I happen to dig the haircut it will grow out soon mr fashion guy you to are perfect ❤

[@lj7952]

It would have been fun to see the best 🫡styled together vs. the worst🫣

[@JillBrewerVideos]

I agree with Michael!! On everything! Especially those last jeans….

[@jennyjenny293]

Love you guys! The LR pants are in a Glen Check. xo

[@dawnhill891]

No he shouldn’t try on the shoes! Another fun and entertaining video!!! I loved it🎉 Thanks for sharing ❤❤

[@daniel20975]

You two are a mess Michael did really good and I agree with him. Love, love you guys. Love seeing the interaction with you guys and Michael turning into a fashionista.

[@danielleburroughs232]

I always enjoy your videos together. I would have liked to see all the items that Michael was picking from so I’d know if he was off or spot on😉

[@treatstreats7149]

You guys were in a tiff today

[@susanhoward7106]

Nooo don’t do it Michael! Step away from the toe shoe’s!😂 Love you both!💖💖

[@michelleb9479]

I LOVE Y'ALL ❤❤

[@Rittleturtle]

Michael is such a nice handsome man and you guys are beautiful couple! I wish to see Michael in a nice modern suits with ties!!!

[@crucianlam3425]

always enjoy michael’s input!!!

[@colstonlchinese]

I dig the cream moccasins.

[@zzzzzzz7zzzzzzz7]

Love hearing Michael’s opinions! I think a chunky Tabi loafer would be perfect for him!

[@KarenBritChick]

@@zzzzzzz7zzzzzzz7 me too. I’ll record the moment when he tries one

[@GabriielaElectromecanico]

Perception is everything, I remember saving up for my first LV and some coworkers automatically thought it was fake because I was a young black girl. At that point I really stopped caring what people's opinions were, people will always have their opinions based on how you look. After this I shopped in *jklux* . If you drive a Bentley and get out of the car with a fake Hermès, no one will question you.

[@diy_it_home3432]

Hi Karen, loved this video!!! But that cowrie shell bag strap ….WOW!!! Can you provide details?

[@karen5912]

Karen, you struggled to let Michael have the floor but his view was really good. His perception is out of your norm. He watches you and knows what looks good to his eye, hence your beauty. Well done Michael.

[@cb4664]

NO! Leave Michael alone! ❤

[@gracelayne1978]

My favorite is the vintage alligator, please remember me in your will. Grace

[@ozywomandius2290]

😂

[@RunningErrands-np7ju]

K, let's just give it up for the. GATOR REGULATOR!!!!!! this incredible bag STILL just takes my breath completely AWAY!!! 🎉'

[@maried.9642]

What size is your lv empreinte bag? Love it and it appears to be the perf size!

[@Fragmentsofanordinarylife]

I'd like to know Karen and others' thoughts: when you feel very down what change of appearance helps you most? Hair cut? Hair dye? Clothes? Nails?

[@JayyBee5557]

Love the cowboy boots def keeper

[@RuthHasell]

Would have loved to see the array that he was choosing from….

[@Happyfitmaree]

Love this. Curious if you prefer your andiamo over your large jodie

[@KarenBritChick]

I do because of the strap. The large Jodie strap is a little harder to sit over coats because of the strap drop. Still love it though

[@shanekae]

His entrance was 🔥🔥🔥.

[@ofkgjsl]

Karen, you have SO much mens wear, please do a styling video with Michael as your model combining his fav pieces with yours and … maybe make him secretly wear the Tabis 🤫 Off topic: just randomly came from a NY apartment tour video where a girl was living on 4sqm and now seeing your home… owning this in NY… you must be millionaires

[@Je_suis_gayane]

Michael can buy Taby shoes but in loafer style they are really cool. They are on wish list too.❤

[@lindaperdue8952]

MORE Michael.

[@Dr.Wolfstar]

Yes, he should try the boots but MALE version. No heels ! Very cool boots! Japanese vibe :)

[@KarenBritChick]

Exactly that’s what I want for him

[@tammysteele5030]

Love you! Adore Michael ❤😂! But I really dislike anything, Tabi! Yes, I am yucking this yum. However, this whole video was priceless! 😂😂😂

[@jmk1962]

Totally agree. Who wants to wear camel toe shoes/boots. Yeuck!😢

[@carolinegilles9181]

Agreed with Cowboy’s boots..A must to me as well since my teenage..! Tod’s are so comfy and timeless..! To me YSL jackets or Tux are the best on Earth..! ICONIC ! Not a fan of that greyish with orange band coat..! Love Tom Ford shades as well..! Happy Holiday guys ! 🇫🇷🇺🇸🇬🇧🎄🥂🎁🛍️

[@jmk1962]

2024, the year Michael became a fashionista.😅

[@DonnaAntenucci]

I agree with Michael in regards to that green purse lol

[@AbrahamBenitez-z4e]

You should be gushing over that jacket. It really fits you like a glove. It looks amazing. You did nothing but a belt and an amazing shoes or even boots it’s because it’s cut to your body like a glove.❤

[@monopinion77]

Karen i love how you lay back and let him express his opinions. Sometimes ladies tend to ask their hubby's opinion but refuse to let them talk or express Kuddos to you and happy life with your man. I subscribe now.

[@KarenBritChick]

I try

[@GabriielaElectromecanico]

"I love a good *jklux* because it helps me decide if I want to buy the real thing or NOT." That part right there. That's IT. I feel like people stigmatize dupes but for me, I pause on large purchases that are trendy or when I feel the overconsumption mania setting in FOR ME. (It's something I struggle with LOL! I'm easily convinced to buy things I don't wear or use. They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!

[@1110karin]

OMG I love the cowboy boots that you sold, it's the color that was so fitting but the ones here I like but I would dye the white a darker shade. My cousin's kid from NL came here and we went to the western store and he bought boots like yours, a black felt cowboy hat and a beaded belt and his mom was so angry and said people would laugh at him, needless to say he has never worn them and they were bloody expensive.

[@fashionwithoutlabels]

I on,y suggest panning the camera on all the items Michael was choosing from. Like we couldn’t see the coats nor all the shoes he choose from.

[@deniseoates7147]

Good motto to live by is if you don’t want to know the answer don’t ask the question. Teehee!! I would really love a picture of all the things that out in each group category that he will be choosing to make it more interesting if we would’ve chose the same.

[@ummAbdulAleem]

That coat with the orange stripe in the back is so nice. Who is the designer?

[@vena936]

Michael can be my brother from another mother ❤😊

[@julia.george4951]

I have to say I love Micheal’s bag, I’ve been looking for it since he got it, want to get it for my partner 😊(think I need to get it on my travels )

[@pamk1967]

I'm mad for Michael, whoever cut your hair, Nah Bruh! I hope you got your money back. You are a kind soul. Great vlog ,Karen!!✌🏾❤️❤️

[@shoogasweet5847]

The pants pattern is called Glenn plaid. Those are beautiful.

[@anumatis]

I cannot imagine to wear those inverted heels. It looks interesting, but I wouldn't pay a dime for it.

[@jeanniebora-mapendo8836]

Karen , you are lucky to have Michael , he is nice person

[@KareninHouston]

No he should not try on the Tabi

[@michaelamarusak2802]

YES, try them on Michael!! I love when he is a part of your videos!

[@smpbiker9233]

Best dynamic fashion duo for 2024 are you two x too good to be true. You bring joy to our lives and make us all hope for the best in humanity for some reason. Good job 🎉
