Luxury Items I Wouldn't Buy Again...and What I'd Buy INSTEAD

[@gaiamorgosi7181]

It’s such a heartbreak when you’re wearing something that you like and makes you feel awesome and then suddenly, something happens and cannot wear it anymore for ethics/sentimental issues, especially when you spend a lot of money and love towards the piece.❤

On the Balenciaga stuff that we bought prior the controversy. I also bought their sneakers with my best intentions and wore them maybe 3 times before it became a No Go. After a couple of months of feeling super uncomfortable wearing them I decided I’m gonna use them. I know I am totally against what they did, other people can think what they want. But really most people, you’re gonna meet on the streets, have no idea what happened. For our community it was a big thing, but worldwide just a brief news that people only read the headlines and forgot. But if those people have something against you wearing clothes you spent your hard earned money on, they are free to buy them from you/me and burn them. I definitely won’t buy any new ones, but just wasting a piece of expensive clothes isn’t a right and conscious thing either. I understand that for you being an influencer, posting your outfits online, there is a unnecessary high risk of unnecessary criticism...

[@josephinesbeautymagnets6787]

You should care, because of your self, not what others think. I have a lot of there stuff, so does my 12 year daughter too. I don't wear it, I did throw it away, and I don't want to be connected to some brand like that, because of my self, not others. Because having there stuff now is a statement, and a bad one. I'm not an influencer, obviously, but everybody knows what happened. My reputation as a business woman, a mother, and in general an intelligent woman would be ruined. Again you where this on your face.

I would totally go and bring the shoes back to Fendi. It is eventually a quality flaw. Two months?? They have to refund. Some credit card companies also guarantee quality for much longer than that time so I’d really look into that. Ok, proceeding to look the video further 😂😘

I agree she should return them. I doubt she wore them more than 10 times before she noticed the tiny defect. They are too expensive to have such a flaw.

[@iknowright140]

Psychologically, if you reframe your thoughts from “getting rid of it” to finding it a new home where it’ll be loved and used as much as it deserves, that may help you let go of things that you’re not loving or using as much as you feel you should ❤

[@BlueMoon-z1q]

Fendi is a bit disappointing with certain items as of lately. Not only the shoes, but I also heard quite a few stories about the bag handles breaking (Not fabric, but the plasticy kind) and even already arriving broken. I feel like that with all of my designer items, I have had no such issues as holes and such thus far. Fingers crossed 🤗

[@dissolved29]

I feel the same way. Lately I’ve been looking at the leather baguettes (I have some vintage early 2000s pieces that I love and was considering the updated version) and compared to my 2006 one they feel… well, different. Same for the canvas pieces, I have a Pequin Boston bag and it just feels more robust. I do realize that those fashion houses work on their materials to make them softer, lighter etc. and don’t want to enter the ‚it used to be better’ chat but in some instances it just feels like it actually did.

[@a2s258]

I completely understand your Balenciaga dilemma. I have a couple of city bags pre Demna, but because of the scandal I don’t feel comfortable wearing them. I think when there is a change at Balenciaga (ie goodbye Demna) it’ll be fine to wear what we have, because we aren’t supporting what happened.

[@CassieThorpe]

I’m glad I’m not the only one that feels this way 🫠

[@Sarah19R]

Exactly the same thing happened to mine last week (in the white). 5 weeks 7 wears max. Fendi were amazing and offered to replace. I exchanged towards a bag because I could see happening again 😢 I miss them but not for that $$$

[@mikeantonio3163]

Cassie, I'm shocked you're not storming into Fendi and demanding reparation! If there's no warning that the mesh becomes holey with little wear, then they're not fit for purpose.

I use the smaller pochette for clubbing, both pochettes on the shoulder for dinners, the strap for my Palm Springs mini and the coin pouch for random bobs lol I wouldn’t sell, I’d repurpose each part tbh

What is wrong with all of the people in these comments? Do people who were abusing as children have the feeling "just go away"? Have you considered the people who look at you negatively were impacted by exploitation and child abuse and think you support those kinds of people or actions too?

[@rimun5235]

@@notme1255 Ok, the scandal is warranted and it was distasteful but Balenciaga was not molesting children here. I think we can all agree, it was poorly done on their part but to equate that to child abuse is too much. I don't own anything Balenciaga, I don't buy it either but it was a poorly done photoshoot. They weren't being the catholic church here. I think we should criticize companies for what they've done and not equate it to what is incredibly much worse that they didn't do. Having kids holding BDSM teddy bears is incredibly creepy and disgusting but being abused as a child is beyond that.

[@sarab6415]

It's certainly not a comfortable topic, but the people who judge you the most are the victims of that abuse in their childhood.

I always say to people that you should always let the stores know as it’s one of the only ways for them to know if there are faults or issues & there’s nothing to be ashamed about either as you love them & want to keep wearing so please at least try! Keep the Balenciaga x Gucci jacket, yes for now it’s still a bit 😅 but it won’t be in the next year - fingers crossed they don’t go rogue again - & yeah I mean it’s still Gucci too 😊

Thank you for your honesty. While I don't generally buy luxury (yet, but more to do with budget), I don't want my hard earned money to be wasted on any purchase. Unfortunately, I have been disappointed by an Anine Bing bag that I purchased. The lock closure turned out to be flimsy and broke. I got it repaired at great cost, but within weeks, it broke again. I am hugely disappointed and heartbroken as I loved this bag. Alas, I could not have foreseen this when I purchase it.

[@michaelfurgala8255]

This is always the saddest part about building a collection. There will be pieces you fall in love with, but some time passes and for one reason or another, you're filled with regret over them. There are numerous pieces from the start of my collection that I have never even worn like this beautifully loud but ornate Moschino jacket and pants set, or my wonderfully oversized SS20 fashion show edition Lacoste polo, or the teal suede Dunhill sneakers, or the several Bottega RTW pieces that I thought were my style. The list unfortunately goes on! Then of course when I found pieces that were very much my style from Balenciaga, I had to retire those as well. I'm happy that the list of luxury item purchases you're not happy with is on the smaller side for you!

[@pixi3d3ath47]

sometimes i get a feeling that if a luxury item is duped, i no longer want it because there’s probably something similar i’d like or the brand is the only reason, not my need for some sort of practicality. that being said, i adore blumarine because i always feel there’s something new and innovative from them. i’m considering getting their costume cross earrings + pink pants or a skirt set because i love the colors and designs and i usually spend less more on basics. i used kibbe type and color season to rule out what i do/don’t want and it keeps me from ill advised purchases

[@christine_songbird7226]

I bought a preloved Balenciaga camera bag in a gorgeous fuchsia that has an adorable picture of a kitten on it (I’m a cat lover) and it is adorable. Obviously bought it before “the incident”. Haven’t worn it since that happened but I haven’t sold it. Just waiting it out for an appropriate period. But it sucks. Can’t wait to see you unbox some new Chanel trainers 😂

[@theonlylady007]

When the multi pochette came out I knew it was a trendy piece and wanted something similar but more classic and I went with the new wave pochette. I have not regretted that. I love it and not too many ppl have it. Totally elevates any outfit I wear with it. So, I suggest that as an alternative. Not as much space but it make up in style 😂

I also preordered the Gucci x Balenciaga Horsebit bag, and I had a bit of the same feelings when I was wearing the bag. I use it less now, and it’s a shame when you just adored something and someone else’s actions changed how it made you feel. I use it sparingly still just because I bought it from Gucci and it’s a classic Gucci style… but now I wish i had just bought the classic version!

I’m tallying up the amount of items on your regret list that I also have and am too stubborn to admit that they may or may not have also disappointed me in some way. (I do love my Fendace matches, and they’ve not failed me, my multi pochette still brings me joy, though lately the men’s bag collection impresses me quite a bit more than the women’s. My Prada double wheel sneakers (I have them in 2 colors) have made me bleed more times than I’m willing to admit 😂 I love the chain cassette, but it’s your review that ultimately deterred me from purchasing it.)

I bough the Gucci hour glass, twilly, the balenciaga belt from Balenciaga side and the long pumps and the balenciaga triple S. all the same pattern and I wear almost all but the jacket cus is always hot in Texas around this time. So don’t feel bad do you any ways Balenciaga ain’t going no where is all the same owner. Balenciaga was going up but had to mess up like this so now it is back to the bottom and starting at below -100 again but is a quite brand back again that is what I used to like about before it went south following Moschino but in a goth no spunky way.

I tend to avoid logos in general because i don't want it to be obvious how i spend my money. Knowing how a person can massively mess up a brand, my choice felt very validating. If I owned anything Balenciaga or bared their name, I'd put off wearing it until they change creative directors

For the jacket, Maybe you can consider a customization by an artist, like putting X’s over the Balenciaga logo or the word “cancelled”. The jacket would definitely be unique and a conversation starter. It would sort of be like when people put artwork on a Birkin or pair of sneakers

blue Burberry trench is great 👍 by they way, i finally got my DG shirt (after 6 tries)! Short sleeved majolica is mine after a year of trying and buying )))

Thanks for the video! Some of those items I was planning to buy, soooo thank YOU! What did Fendi say about the trainers?

I was surprised when you said the Kelly pocket wallet and didn’t mention the lock poking out! That’s usually the first complaint. I have one in black w/ GHW and I really love it, I pack it to the gills 🤣. It stores my keys, money, cards and coins yet it doesn’t look bulky at all. I think it’s because mine is in Madame leather, so it’s really pliable and soft. What kind of leather is your wallet in? Maybe it’s too stiff? In any case, if you sell it you’ll definitely make your money back.

The Kelly pocket wallet is an excellent piece. I have it and it’s a great wallet if you can get it.
