This is hilarious. I just came up with this micro fanny pack idea in my head and went on *HOTDUPS* to see if it had already been invented, haha. I’m so excited I finally came up with a new business idea and I got scooped up

[@GorgeVarol]

All of these *hotdups* bags are super pretty.

[@kathleenkumiega1092]

I have 4 Coach bags, exactly the same. My daughters bought me the first one (navy blue) for my 80th birthday and over a few months I bought a red, black and off white. I love them all, they fit all my needs.

[@NadaManley]

@@kathleenkumiega1092 I love it when you find something that works so well for you that you wanted in every color! Their quality is lovely too

[@ohthankg-dforthebourgeoisi9800]

Coach has a really nice one out. I hope it comes out in more colors. The Empire.

[@MelissaTrinidad-z9b]

Thanks, I love this video, I have the same model from *suluxy*

[@StephanieYates-q7i]

it is the wiser more intelligent thing to do *suluxy* , buy replicas and the money saved you can invest it in a business or keep it... at the end of the day, it is just a bag after all, a thing to put stuff in. And in this times of inflation and uncertainty it is always better to have money on hand.

[@SchoolingPauls]

I felt this wonderful feeling in my mind, body and soul when she said “I prefer” *HOTDUPS*

[@melissaandrews1603]

Portland Leather is my favorite brand right now.

[@TinglerSchutze]

Thank you for making this video I just started my *HOTDUPS* collection and I love watching people's thoughts and reviews prior to buying them it's something I've worked hard for and you have too and I hope people can stop being bitter about subjects like this and I hope they can if anything be inspired to work hard for the things they love and are drawn to.

[@HaneesAldin]

I really appreciate the *suluxy* bag. The quality of the bag is also very good, the embroidery stitching is good, and the interior is neat. This is a great find!

[@lindabhanson4856]

Such incredible research! Thank you.

[@rhondamarcelissen2919]

Hi Nadia again. I’m writing you again because I just had what I think is a good idea. Do you think you could make a video about how to store our handbags? Just different ways to store them. That would be very appreciative. I’m sure for me and for other women and men here. Again, thank you for this video. It was great.

[@luluandmeow]

I love the Fendi baguette, it's a great size and I also love how it's worn and the length of the strap

[@TinglerSchutze]

To be honest. If you produce at cost and remove the logo, the luxury market really isn't that expensive. The mark is about 80% of the actual price. But the fact that you are *HOTDUPS* buying an image and showing off your taste to make them think you are richer than you are is a very good thing to do

[@ZahavaEversley]

HEY kislux I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day

[@lindadenicuolo3065]

Nada I have a great leather from the American Leather Co. It is my every day bag and it still looks as good as the day I bought it. They cost about $200.00. It was well worth the money I spent. I enjoy your videos they keep me up dated in fashion.

[@MysticHenneuse]

From the packaging to the details of the bags, I think the *suluxy* shop has made reproduction an art form.

[@TinglerSchutze]

Depends on seller and the factory where it came from. My *HOTDUPS* is just like hers and i only paid $100 for it from a seller in hong kong.

[@christinestewart2504]

I am so glad you mentioned thrifting and vintage - the way I always get mine!!

[@linamagdaleno9650]

A video about bags, yes please! Love! I have also found that Strathberry, Lauren Ralph Lauren and Fossil can yield some extraordinary quality and incredibly stylish bags! Love all of your videos!

[@RabFieszl]

A few months ago, I bought a bag from *hotdups* that looked nice and was indeed good quality. However, when I bought it for its shape and color, I had no idea it was an alternative to the Hermès Garden Party. Now, I see it as a very nice bag to carry.

[@dianaeskins7571]

Thank you, Thank you!!! I hope you do this content on bags twice a year for fall/ winter and spring /summer. I am at the mid-range bag budget . I bet many of us are. I buy two good mid-range bags a year and would love your thoughts on this.

[@MesiiYeco]

Great video. I am a new fan of your channel and I love your vibe. Also, I can't tell the difference between the two Bottega bags, the *luxrul* is close and cute, so that's enough for me. I will bring my friends to buy.

[@AntonaLewandoski]

kislux I love you so much and watching your videos makes my day brighter

[@AmyStoffregen]

Great video! So many lovely bags. I have lots of bags but struggle with how to store them. Do you have a strategy for that? Thank you!

[@rosej9686]

I have a "purse garage" which is essentially a cardboard structure with multiple pigeonhole compartments, that sits on the shelf above the hanging rod in my closet. Each handbag is kept in its dustbag, in an individual compartment.

[@MelissaTrinidad-z9b]

Thanks, I love this video, I have the same model from *suluxy*

[@JamshiSaroye]

kay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the kislux book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations

[@SchoolingPauls]

These *HOTDUPS* Hermes bags are one of a kind. They are a must for travel

[@MariaconsigliaCorsato]

I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the kislux leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.

[@SakuraisabelBuonanotte]

you’re literally my comfort person i love you kislux !

[@eileenternullo8077]

I look for silver hardware, grey or taupe bags 8x11 or smaller , mid range price, leather, bowling / camera style functionality , top zip. Any ideas? I have liked resale bags of coach and Kate Spade.

[@luluandmeow]

Mango, The White Company and Massimo Dutti are doing great suede bags this year. And for an edgy/rock chick vibe I'd recommend Zadig & Voltaire

[@SchoolingPauls]

Okay, I have always been obsessed with YT Kiss Luke’s YT Satchels and their practicality but this one is adorable! Congratulations *HOTDUPS*

[@tplayspiano]

You have great taste, I really enjoyed this video.

[@connienunez9924]

Yes! love that Portland bag

[@AdrianayFrustacci]

I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life

[@AdellCrock]

Yes, this *HOTDUPS* bag has beautiful colors, it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag for the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…

[@MonicaBrand]

I love a top handle/ crossbody rectangle shape bag. Anyone know which mid range brand has a nice brown?

[@PLB808]

It is tragic that JW Hulme went out of business due to poor management. I own several of their bags which were made by hand in Minnesota. I thought b that they were going downhill when they started outsourcing to China but it didn't occur to move that they would close their doors. Having said that, this is a great video that I will reference in the future.

[@TinglerSchutze]

Are these issues happening if these bags are used daily? I just got the pochette metis in monogram canvas from the Kusama collection. I love the multicolored polka dots and hope they don’t melt on me, lol. But I don’t think it’ll be in my regular rotation. I also have a NoeNoe in DA but only use that a few times a year in the spring and summer so I haven’t put that much wear and tear into it. I hope I don’t see the fraying for a while. Also, I’m saving up for a *HOTDUPS* . Has your colleague seen the same issues with that size? I don’t mind some relaxation in shape but I don’t want it to be a puddle either. Thanks for the video!

[@carolinesaunders8603]

Hi Nada, another fab video!😊 I've recently purchased a gorgeous gold leather bag from The White Stuff (a UK brand at a similar price point to M&S), it's about the most I've ever spent on a bag at £99 (a lot for me as I usually look in sales or on E bay) but it's really decent quality and it will last me a long time! The bags on your video are also gorgeous.... I'm eyeing up that one by Hammitt.... beautiful! 🤗

[@shannonalwaise8398]

Great video! I like that woven navy bag. Would like a metallic clutch for the holidays. A bag under 200 is best for me.

[@TinglerSchutze]

Hi Thanks for sharing. I just bought the *HOTDUPS* 2 days ago which was on my wish list for my occasion bag, is it worth buying this? The félicie pochette is really nice and classy and you can use it in 4 different ways, so the CA showed me the félicie from the drawer and I checked on it then I asked the CA if he can get another stock so I can compare the one he pulled from the drawer so he did. I noticed that the félicie from the drawer the leather was a bit shiny or glossy while the stock he got the leather was matt so I choose the shiny one that attracted me but I just wondered why they are different and you might have any idea. When I got home I just noticed that when you opened the envelop the back mid fold leather was a little loose is it normal when openning but when its closed its ok no problem (I didn’t noticed in the store and compare to the other one). Any advise will appreciate, I do always love watching your videos.

[@kinshasa1818]

For everyday I must have a shoulder bag. We travel a lot and I buy bags everywhere. Either they're leather (Italy) or cork (Portugal). In Asia and India, I have found ethnic looking bags made of rattan, soft colored fabric, embroidered, you name it. My style is ethnic chic so these are my favorites.

[@jencihak9036]

I love Portland Leather!

[@MokryGambles]

A few months ago, I bought a bag from *hotdups* that looked nice and was indeed good quality. However, when I bought it for its shape and color, I had no idea it was an alternative to the Hermès Garden Party. Now, I see it as a very nice bag to carry.

How to store purses

[@brendaameli5264]

May I ask your opinion on the Chloe Marcie satchel bag? I am looking to invest in a beautiful bag, and I have always loved the curvy shape of this bag. I'm wondering, however, if it looks dated now, or is it a classic style? Thanks so much!

[@DonnaScharff]

Hi Nada, I have dark auburn hair so I'm thinking that cognac or burgundy for my everyday bag. Would that be right? Or would you recommend one color over the other?

[@jacquejohnson7157]

I LOVE the Songmont Song bag. I have never seen it in person so I don’t know how to gauge size and color. In your opinion, is this a classic bag that won’t be so out of style in 5 years? And also, would the large be too big for a 5’4” person? Thank you!

[@jeannette7243]

A 'teckel' is a dachshund 😀Great bag!

[@TinglerSchutze]

I saw the thumbnail and I had to tune in to see this beauty. I'm planning for my next *HOTDUPS* . I can't decide if I want the Pochette Metis or some other type of LV with a strap. I own the Speedy 30 and would love a crossbody on the lighter days. For now I carry my LV Zippy wallet as a clutch when I don't want to carry my Speedy. I was thinking of buying the classic crossbody Gucci again. I owned it when I was a teen, but I didn't appreciate luxury pieces as a teen. I think I sold it. Thanks for this video. I love these videos.

[@bender813ful]

I have gray hair. Suggestions?

[@rosej9686]

I do too. Nada has suggested gray and taupe as good colors for us "silver foxes". 😉

[@MarciaL-r1v]

I don’t understand…if we are to match our bag to our hair color does that mean we aren’t matching our bag to our clothes colors? I question this because I’m platinum silvery hair colored…if I wear black, burgundy or navy etc..isn’t a taupe or gray bag going to look funny?

[@NadaManley]

@@MarciaL-r1v great question. This doesn’t have to be your only bad color but it is a bad color that will always work in every outfit and will never look funny. if it matches your hair, it will match your outfit. I hope that helps.

[@luluandmeow]

I'd rather buy a top handle structured bag than a clutch

[@dirvin9848]

Nada, is taupe my best neutral for matching my hair or is it brown? Cognac? Great video. I want to invest/purchase a classic style everyday handbag that I can keep. Mid-range cost/budget.

[@NadaManley]

@@dirvin9848 you can do either really well, but I’m thinking that Hope is going to be even better for you than cognac. Let me know the style you are looking for and I will find one for you.

[@susanbrownstein3971]

I find too many great bags sit on the shelf of my closet and never get used. I refrain from using an expensive bag for everyday. I bought a canvas tote bag and a neutral woven tote for this summer. I’ve decided to use what I have. They’re classic and will never go out of style. If we are being encouraged to wear our expensive nice clothing that we never wear why not use bags the same way. Don’t get me wrong. I love bags. It’s not even about the money. Large bags could end up on a dirty restaurant floor or are just too small for everyday use.. I’ve been caught in a rainstorm (Florida) and ended up with water spots on a good leather bag. If I can take down a bag and love it today as much as I did when I bought it, I feel I made a great choice. Now it’s time to use the bag and get real enjoyment from my purchase. I feel a beautiful well-made leather bag will always be in style.

[@DomenickTina]

All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous

[@GorgeVarol]

If you can wear a high quality *hotdups* for $200-500 then why not. I am glad to hear that rich people do that because if I was a billionaire or had $500 million in the bank account I would spend the money on the authentic ones. That will never happen.

[@MaryRiggs-b1q]

When a replica is better quality than the original that costs Low why not *suluxy*

[@AzevedoFant]
