Luxury items you ONLY need ONE of! *Luxury minimalist collection*

[@angelamoore5102]

Agree! My luxury collection is minimal. Only have one bag for each lifestyle change (workbag, raining weather workbag, weekend bag, travel and small and large evening clutch). I’ve been a minimalist for few years and I appreciate the luxury items more.

[@nikkicleope7121]

Love your mindset! What pieces do you recommend?

[@angelamoore5102]

@@nikkicleope7121 my workbag carry LV bandoliere 25 in mono (I work at a museum so my bag is literally sitting in a chair in my office all day, no need for me to change it everyday) for rainy work bag I carry LV vintage epi cannes bag in black, weekend is LV pochette accessoire mono, small clutch is the mini pochette accessoire mono, large clutch is LV Ronde GM vintage piece in mono. And when I travel for work and personal travel, I use the LePliage large bag and LePliage document case in black. That is my whole collection. I use the same card holder and cosmetic bags for each of my handbags. I do not have multiples. Have to admit I would like one more bag the LV Boite Chapeau Souple M, but if I get that one will take away the Cannes. My wardrobe is so minimal in size and colors (black, white and nudes) that LV mono and black bags go with everything that I own and keeps me for buying more bags. Going minimalist has really been very liberating for me, it allows me to enjoy my smaller collection even more!

I just about screamed when you said that it doesn’t make sense to have multiple card holders/wallet!

New subscriber here, thanks for the sensible, practical and intentional advice!

[@proudzebraa]

In my years of lurking on KZbin, I have never commented on a single video, but this rings so true and I relate to it so much that I wanted to leave a comment. I love that you are realistic about your purchases and only buy what you will actually put to use. I really do identify with all of your luxury purchase "philosophies", and I love your videos and your collection! I am currently curating my collection, and I have: 1. LV Lockme mini backpack for travel. I sightsee a lot during travel so I wanted something I can be hands free. Initially wanted a Palm Springs Mini, but after a while, felt that it was too loud, so I opted for a more understated model. 2. Chanel Mini Rectangular for non travel day to night bag. 3. YSL nano sac de jour on rotation with the Chanel Mini as a non travel day to night bag. 4. Furla Metropolis for errands. Bought this so it can take a beating when I'm on the go. No babying needed! 5. Bottega Veneta Card Holder. I agree with what you said about cards! Barely even bring this out anymore, except for when I need to drive (drivers license) and when I visit the clinic (medicare). 6. LV Pochette Kirigami. TBH only bought this because it was value for money (3 in one lol) but found it functional as my dinner clutch, passport & travel doc holder when travelling and card case for all the other discount cards that I barely use. Still on the hunt for the perfect work bag and will be purchasing a key pouch soon! After this I'll focus on curating other items like accessories or higher quality clothing items. This comment turned out longer than I expected... haha

[@frederickthomas_]

Yes I think this info rings true for many of us! When I first began purchasing luxury pieces, I had the mindset you mentioned “oh let me treat myself to an SLG” since they are more affordable than buying a whole bag. But I’ve found more happiness (and use) when I have saved longer and purchased a bag that is part of my carefully curated collection! I also agree with you that some luxury pieces are much better as an understated piece, such as a bag for going into the office (speaking for myself). I still get the joy from carrying what I love but am not walking around with logos plastered everywhere. That’s what works for me but it’s a personal decision for everyone.

[@IsabellesStyle]

Yes! Delayed gratification is always best! No more impulse purchasing SLGs for sure😂 I am really also enjoying understated luxury items so much! Xx

[@tanesharedwood914]

Videos like this really jolts you out of the zombie like consumerism that we get accustomed to. I feel so much more clear when i have a specific bag ( or two bags)for each occasions. Once my neutrals are covered and maybe one pop of colour that’s it.

[@jennifermcgee8621]

I agree with you on wallets. I haven’t used one in years. They are bulky and take up too much room. I use a card holder and a little change purse for bills, coins, coupons and earphones. I have a larger catch all for my totes. Thanks all the great advice in this video.

[@BoltsandBlessings]

Great video on cutting out the unnecessary items. I’m also pairing down my collection to what fits my lifestyle and what I actually use. No more buying just to buy or hoarding bags. Having too many of the same type of purse, I felt like my bags were competing with each other. It’s refreshing to watch a video like this.

[@youheartmel]

I’ve never related more to a video than this. I love the minimalist lifestyle but still want luxurious items. I recently sold 5 luxury bags- 3 LV, 1 Chanel and 1 Dior in order to welcome 2 new Chanel iridescent pieces. In total, I have 4 bags now and I feel so much more at peace. I also have a couple signature scents- 1 warmer scent and 1 lighter scent. Thank you for this video!

[@Screamlovehoney]

Depends of the country really. In Finland, cards are the most popular payment method but phone apps are not very common and the transfer towards using them has been relatively slow. But nevertheless you are right; there is no need to have 10 card holders like many have. That just adds up! I have one Calvi card holder from Hermes and I am planning to get another one just to switch it up a bit, but that it is. No more than two is necessary.

[@suzannehall5200]

I am fairly minimal with my collection. The only points on which we are different are firstly travel bags. I have two handbags that I take for travel but not usually on the same trip. If I am going on a more casual beach holiday I will take a lighter coloured, more casual bag, but if I am going to a city that is dressier I take a more structured bag instead. As well as a day handbag I take a Longchamp La Pliage tote on the plane with my handbag and all the other stuff one has to take on planes inside it. I won’t put a handbag under the seat of a plane unprotected, it’s a good way to destroy them very quickly. And I take a nice but inexpensive clutch for dinner. Oroton makes some really good ones for this. Secondly, I won’t be getting rid of my two wallets any time soon. Once covid is over I think cash will be around for quite a while yet. There is the time when the eftpos machine breaks down and cash is the only option, then when you are out to eat and splitting the bill is not allowed and everybody has to add to a pile of cash on the table to pay for their portion.

Agree with what you said, especially on key holders. I really can’t be bothered to change my 6 keys out of my key holders, it’s so much work!

[@pianosparks]

Yes agree! I only have a few of each now as I have downsized and carefully chosen which bags to keep. I only have a few perfumes too like Tom Ford and Dior that I wear occasionally since I have a baby . It may be too strong/fragrant for my baby. Take care!

[@pleaissinee5218]

I have been used the key holder as you have since 2004. It worked so well and long lasting for 16 years. I just bought a new one but the same model recently to replace my old one.

This is a very helpful video. Thank you so much! I’ve recently come into some money and am planning on buying some luxury bags. The neverfull monogram is on my list. Now I know it’s a great work bag!

[@hellocatwalkcity]

💯 agree Isabelle. A curated collection is what works best for me as well. 😉

[@MariaLouiseLovesLuxuries]

I love this video - I completely agree. I don't switch out of my SLG's - it drives me crazy. The only exception is I have a card case and compact zippy wallet in LV and Chanel (which I can't get rid of it, I love them soooo much), so I may switch depending on the bag I carry, but I mostly use my Chanel's. Other than that, I have 1 mini pochette, 1 key holder and 1 work bag. And I prefer it this way as I feel I spent my money well because the items are getting used. I hate having nice things on a shelf not being used. So I use and enjoy my luxury pieces. As for perfume, I agree - I have a few, but I end up always wearing the same 2. In the summer: LV's Attrape-Rêves and the rest of the year, my scent from many many years, Coco Mademoiselle eau de parfum. The others pretty much sit on my vanity sadly. They smell so nice, but I don't reach for them as I really have my 2 favorites. Thanks so much for sharing these tips! xx

[@betsywicks6291]

What a wonderful video and so true! Finding items that actually work for you and replacing only as needed makes so much sense. I have found that some relatively inexpensive fill my work day needs and no worry about damaging an expensive bag during the daily commute. Choosing items that fill several purposes also makes the original purchase worthwhile.

[@SheilaMaddyLoves]

Totally agree on most of these! On SLGs, I’m still guilty of buying too many because oftentimes I fall in love with a colour or a print but I don’t want to commit to a whole bag so I buy the SLG instead. I don’t really use them though, so they’re really just for looking at and collecting haha.

[@oakasis]

This video is so serendipitous as I've been thinking of what items I want in my own luxury collection. Its refreshing seeing someone who acknowledges that more is not always better :) Hope you'll continue sharing more videos as you downsize and curate!

[@chickenEwing]

Hi Isabelle! Thank you for the video. I too prefer a curated wardrobe only with things I "need". =) I have the Saint Laurent Sac De Jour Large in Crocodile Embossed Leather as my work bag. Before I got this bag, I had quite a variety of work bags from the brands Zara and Oroton. I do love using those bags too but they would break after a few years. So far I havent bought more bags after my Saint Laurent. I really felt it when you said you recommend using an understated designer to work because we spend so much time at work and its nice to enjoy fashion during work days. I am blessed to be able to dress quite preppy for work. I usually wear suits.

[@dsy1081]

Totally agree with you - I have the same philosophy. I take it one step further and really only purchase things that have more than one use with the exception of a small wallet. My work bag is also my carry-on bag and my gym bag, my travel bag is also my evening bag. One black/silver, one brown/gold. In the states, I don't think wallets are going anywhere unfortunately. Most states, you still have to carry a physical drivers license with you to drive, and people have been reticent to go to contactless payments. Still mostly no cash, but people love their cards for some reason. I don't get it.

[@jadelightsword]

Mostly agree, esp on the SLG's. Do you think a makeup pouch/catch-all could also make this list, or why not? As for travel bags, I would definitely need two. One micro sized belt bag that the attendants at the gate won't count as an "item" for keeping my phone/passport/etc. readily available, which can double as an evening clutch; and one larger bag that can serve as my carry on, and my sightseeing bag. Because for all day sightseeing, I definitely need to bring my water, sunglasses, umbrella, an extra cardigan, a snack....I don't know how you can go sightseeing with such a tiny bag!

[@Oceangirl1234]

What have you got for a microsized belt bag that could count as an evening bag that sounds interesting

[@thalia7104]

That's interesting, because I used to carry my Alma PM as my handbag when travelling (very secure), and an additional backpack with water or some food. Then I noticed that I always only needed the water, whereas the other things I was just carrying around without using them; so I bought a small water bottle, that would fit in my Alma, and since then, I don't take my backpack anymore. I have to mention that I usually travel in pre-Christmas time, so autumn/ winter; I could imagine one would need more water when travelling in summer, when it's very hot.

[@jadelightsword]

@@thalia7104 that's true, maybe I should travel more in the colder months! I usually end up going when it's warm, and bring copious amounts of sunblock and sun protective clothing, along with water.

@@jadelightsword Haha, in the beginning, I always brought too much clothes with me! I thought, "Oh, when I'm in Paris, I should have those beautiful clothes with me, so I can wear them 🤩!" I never wore them 😑. 😂😂😂. Now I know exactly what I need considering clothes (usually dresses, they are perfect for my needs) - and I always bring a separate pair of shoes with me, even if I don't need it (one time, I was going to Vienna (just for three days, so I thought I would be fine with one pair), and it was already snowing in Munich - in Vienna, it was much more snow, a true winter wonderland 😍! But my shoes got soaking wet, I couldn't get them dry (I even tried with a hairdryer), so I actually had to buy a new pair 🤦🏻‍♀️ (btw, this pair of ankle boots I still take with me 😉)!). But do consider autumn and winter, it's a really beautiful atmosphere, and you can easily put your scarve and gloves in a medium-sized handbag 😊! I couldn't go in summer, I don't get along with heat, sun, and warm weather very well, and additionally, I just love that sparkle of Christmas lightning everywhere 😁! And, as I mentioned, the atmosphere is amazing in autumn / winter season 😊!

[@lolipena8051]

Agree with the cardholder, I only have one. The key holder for me, haven’t seen the need. Because if I have an organizer in my bag. I just put it in one of the pockets. When it comes to totes/work bags. I disagree. Personally if they are lux I need more than one. Need to rotate so that I don’t completely ruin them. However if it’s mid range like Kate spade I say you only need one. Before I started taking lux to work I used my Kate spade tote daily for 3yrs and it’s still kicking. The handles are fraying. But regardless still going. Perfumes I agree. Only have 4 and that’s to cover each season. Only buy when I run out.

[@anitaclemens2609]

Thank you for this video. I have 5 perfumes, two for summer and three for winter. I was wondering if you could talk more about how long perfumes last. I have inherited some from my late mother's and when I walk past her things I can detect her scent from the perfume bottles. I don't use her scents, but it is nice to "smell" her essence. This makes me wonder how long I should keep my own perfumes. About the work bag, I use to purchase a good quality hand bag and use it for the season, I would store it in a drawer in my desk. But I would use it so much, that by the end of the season it was pretty much beaten up. I end up donating it or storing it away at the end of the season in case I needed to use it the next year. But I rarely do look for it again. I do use a tote for work to carry my computer, lunch, tea and whatever I might need for work. Now that I am mostly home, I use them when I do local errands/shopping, so I can just throw in a purchase from CVS or other small purchase. I rarely take my good designer bags out because they are made of soft lambskin and I do not want to ruin them, especially in a New England snow storm. I use to buy key cases, this video made me wonder why I do not do that anymore. Lately, I just throw my keys in a pocket on the outside of my bag or just inside, because I have so many small plastic cards on the key chain that I have to take out all the time when I shop/go to the gym, etc (not credit cards). I should probably keep the two separate and get myself a key case again.

My collection is semi minimal. I have a couple of options with bags because I like some variety but I'm also too lazy to switch bags. I kind of regret buying a luxury wallet. Wallets get dirty way too easily and I feel guilty using it because of that. With perfume, I ended up becoming a minimalist by default. I get sick with most perfumes (probably my body chemistry or allergies) so I stick to a few. It actually feels like a mini victory every year when I finish up a perfume bottle.

I like being a minimalist but at the same time I do enjoy nice things and I am willing to invest in a few of them. And when you were talking about a small travel bag, I thought of that black Lou Lou bag even before you pulled it out :) it's beautiful. Nice picks all of your things

Love this video! I must add watch into the list too! I think 1 or 2 nice watches are enough in one’s collection :)

[@LuxPending]

Agree with everything you said, especially about wanting to reward myself for working so hard but fighting to hold off

[@christinespiteri5947]

Thank you for making Melbourne's lockdown so bearable.. I am inspired by your take of being 'classy' first and foremost.

[@TheAgnesrabino]

I like the cardholder you featured but I saw it in polka dots in another vlog. However, it's no longer available. I wonder where else can I find it🤔😁

[@__sj.diary__1167]

So true💖 I love being minimalist😊

[@YennieMC]

Yes!! I live by this! I don’t need multiple bags of the same kind 😅

[@hongngatruong323]

Because you recommended this bag i really want to get this bag but I don't know which color should I get. I just worried the white colour get old quicker than the black, please help me which colour I should get please?🙏

[@anna-liisapitkaaho-pussila770]

Words of wisdom 👍🏽 Love your channel 🥰

[@IsabellesStyle]

Aw thanks hun xx

[@Divinenubian]

Great advice you just saved me alot of money to put towards a ysl bag

[@ninierose44]

I have been eyeing the speedy B for such long time. Hope one day I can afford to buy it. Only one LV handbag is enough for me since I already have a few MK, Coach, Kate Spade and Teddy Blake handbag in my collection.

[@roswelg6836]

good advice. whats the wear and tear of your ysl camera bag ? im planning to buy but i read some bad reviews. thx

[@rikkipoynter]

Because I'm disabled, I do have a few different wallets and bags depending on the day or what I'm doing. For everyday, I like something small and easy. I can do with your basic card holder and bag. For travel, I do like RFID blocking and Mahalo Cases actually does something where they have a phone case that is magnetic and some specific wallets are RFID blocking so to make things easier, I do like the idea of those. I've recently been diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome now so it's a journey to find other things that work with me now. ... i recognize the products i just mentioned are not luxury but still lol

[@emanuellyschubauer]

You are back! 😘 Thanks for another very thoughtful video. 😊

[@IsabellesStyle]

Aw thanks hun! I am happy to be back😍 xx

[@Ployrinlapat]

Thank you for this video! I agree with everything you said.

[@MaykoYang]

Isabelle, if I have alot of black bags (but I love black), would it be tacky to get a black mini Lou also? I debated about white or tan but I really love your black mini Lou also ❤️

[@Jennifer-pb7zq]

I did realise that I actually only need one cardholder. Thinking of downsizing mine. But I the LV Mon Monogram is so beautiful...

[@JessieBanana]

I personally don’t understand work handbags in general, designer or otherwise. I prefer a very robust, compartment oriented, soft briefcase. One that I can easily take to the airport and works with my luggage. I want something with comfortable straps, that will hold my laptop, tablet, personal and work phone, files and whatever else I need to carry with ease. I spent a bit more money recently and got a Tumi, cause cheap bags were literally disintegrating every year and just in general looked less polished day to day, but as for a handbag it would less useful and kind of burdensome. I don’t want to think about caring for my bag when I am work running from meeting to meeting...well pre-COVID.

[@fatimazahra-jg1fs]

Really love the idea and the message of this video! Explained very well too! Maybe I need to rewatch this everytime I have the urge to buy something that I don't really need, as a kindly reminder. 😂

[@LadyGrace67]

GREAT video! I love your streamlining tips.

[@theworkflare]

Oh this is such a great video. But I have to disagree with having just one workbag, I have a 9-to-5 and majority of my clothes are for a 9-to-5 wardrobe; so I find that I need a black bag, a dark blue bag, a beige bag, a white bag, and a dark brown bag. However, I absolutely agree that we don’t need more than one keyholder nor do we need more than one cardholder; maybe you can have a bigger wallet if need be but an extra cardholder would be redundant. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I thought this video was very useful. 😘😍

[@pattaratidahansiripongsaku8408]

That rose lv perfume is soooooo good, love it

[@Lala-bi9mc]

No amount of therapy could get me to stop buying so much things 😭😭😭 lol. Anyway, LOVE this video. It really puts things in perspective. Also, I have the same card holder from YSL but in the red leather. I don’t trust Apple Pay or anything that requires me to store my card information. I work at a bank and we’ve been dealing more and more with ppl getting their accounts hacked.

[@nadistic]

I’ve been enjoying your videos more and more recently, but I’m completely sold with this one! Very very solid points especially the key holder one! I shall replay your voice in my head when I find myself checking out preloved Chanel key holders when I already own one from LV. 😂

[@IsabellesStyle]

Aw thank you so much for enjoying my videos hun, it means so much to me😍 yeh we don’t need to spend more on any more key holders😂 xx

[@xingfu5839]

Im exactly like you on perfume. And i totally understand with the bag concept

[@sandra_w]

So good to see you! I love your channel :)

[@Tom-mx4li]

You are right! Just only one collection in every branded item. What the used of having so many bags, it was crazy and sick and just only to show-off makes arrogant. Wearing expensive luxury bags no cash only credit cards.

[@Liveandletlive0101]

I personally need a black, nude, white and/or pop of colour(red) bag in every category. I also love LV damier ebene for bags and slg’s.

[@miterca]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Love this video and completely agree!! so refreshing to see a video like this

[@shrutisingh1375]

Really liked this video! Perhaps more categories could be covered in other videos - minimalist belts, accessories, weekend bags etc.?

[@faithxlove1]

Hi Isabelle! Where did you get the 2 wall art from?! Absolutely love it!!

[@MeticulousShopper]

I have never used touchless pay from my phone. I definitely don't trust the security enough to upload my cards to it!

[@IsabellesStyle]

Fair enough! Xx
