40 OF THE BEST & WORST LUXURY HANDBAGS | Lydia Elise Millen

[@JNC611]

you have the dreamiest handbags!! This may be a weird request, but in your handbag videos (or when you unbox a new one in vlogs) could you also show us the inside of the bag to get an idea of space/layout? Im always curious about the internal configuration haha

[@therealisabelbf]

Same! Always interested on the inside!

[@qnt1017]

I kept waiting for Lydia to unzip the bags and showed us the inside 😂🤣😂🤣

[@hellog4944]

Totally agree

[@laurenbutcher7076]

So true! I’m so intrigued by what she considers a good work size too - like, would that reallllyyy hold a laptop, diary and all the other work stuff?! 😂

[@dinavienna]

Me too

[@CD-mj1zs]

I’m snowed in with two kids and my husband is essential personnel so I’m on my own. You have no idea how happy you’ve just made me...no idea! Best wishes and lots of love!!!!!

[@bunnymom9842]

The Dior celestial bag is a masterpiece.

[@dolledupbyj]

Agree! Literally a work of art.

[@brendareid8522]

I tried to get that bag . Sold out everywhere here in Canada .

[@thepursewhisperer2686]

That’s my favorite too 😍

[@fschapers4788]

Shoe collection next???? Loving it!!!

[@LisaVliegen1996]

Oh yes i would loooove that! 🥰

[@annieamie9771]

Seems like Lydia needs a little break from collection videos after this 2 hour ordeal! :p But agree a shoe and belt collection would be nice to see.

[@debs7876]

A shoe collection would get 2 million views as well!!!! 😍👠

[@b.e.7200]

Yes please

[@dolledupbyj]

Yesss would love to see that!

[@lunarfaerie8552]

Effortlessly stylish, I love that you’re not afraid to say that your taste in clothing and handbags has evolved and the bags deserve to have an owner who with love them and is also in love with them.

[@MoniqueARuiz]

I can’t remember if you want feedback on videos or not, but would love to see a video like this that shows close ups of the items and how they look inside, and even pics of how you’ve styled them previously when wearing them. A lot of work, I’m sure, but it would be appreciated 😊

[@lizzielovesyou007]

I LOVE this idea

[@lizzielovesyou007]

Even comparing the different size bags that she has in the same style and showing what can fit in each one and things like that

[@TherMon1]

[@leannelang2579]

I feel like you should own a Celine bag. So timeless, sophisticated, and stunning range of colours. Very understated. I really enjoyed this video, thanks for sharing ❤️

[@hayleymeyer6707]

I remember the Chloe Nile days! I loved how you styled it so much I actually bought one for myself a few years back 🥰

[@Buttercookiesssss]

Love how you change out your collection over the years according to your preference and style, so it's not too boring at any one time ❤️

[@dahliamercado2940]

I think your grandpa would be so proud to have you toting his bag around the world. You should get it repaired for travel but not completely restored to where his use is lost ❤️

[@daliamcmahon5884]

Who is her grandpa??

[@sharonjoyce8437]

I love your collection and my favorites are the Birken, the Celestial Lady Dior and the Garden Dior. Love those styles and I love your style and how it has evolved over the years. I believe most of your bags are the timeless classics. Love the Flame Fendi also - Stunning!

[@glamluxemama]

She has the perfect collection!

[@kellyl419]

Hi Lydia! I enjoy watching these kind of collection videos.. it’s like an escape for me, especially on days like today when I’ve had a long am with the kids, sending them off to school, & folding 3 loads of laundry.. it helps the chores go by quick and a little pick me up! Thank you for sharing your beautiful collection! You are one of my faves on KZbin!

[@lindsaypeterson9502]

The Chanel classic bag is the greatest bag ever designed, in my opinion. I would rather have that then a Birkin bag any day.

[@Maaikeintheater]

Me too 🤣

[@cassandrabass2479]

Definitely agree! Not really a debate lol

[@thepursewhisperer2686]

To each their own 🙂

[@vanl4362]

I agree

[@sakuraflower7245]

The only Birkin bag I have any interest in would be a black 25 in gold and/or silver hardware. I can see why so many people like the Chanel classic flap, but it's a bit too lady-like for my style and I feel too many people have it. I think the Boy bag is much more striking and interesting.

[@hannahschwab7643]

I love the video already and actually makes me slightly sentimental as well - i just realised how long I’ve been following you for when you told us for how long you’ve had the gold serpenti! Its been such a while and the journey is incredible! Your taste is so nice❤️

[@Deekins73]

Same! I was watching and thinking "wow we have had that bag for a long time" :-)

[@tassjournal]

yessss! i remember the story when she got her chanel boy bag, the balenciaga and first time her antigona and all the bags that are still on her collection. happy to watch this because i miss lydia the bag lady!

[@enriho]

I was getting an anxiety attack, your videos always calm me down and take me out of my head, thank you, you look gorgeous as usal 🥰

[@deezame]

Hi, hope you’re feeling better

[@enriho]

@@deezame much better thank you didi 🥰

[@katherinemestizo8337]

Not gonna lie, I do love that Lady Dior floral print limited edition bag, I think that it is gorgeous and something I would love to own if I ever come across it. But I agree with you that right now, I am obsessing over the Hermès bags. I have the Jypsiere and I am looking forward to getting a Birkin or a Kelly or even both in the future.

[@kikim2749]

That floral dress makes your eyes POP. So pretty!

[@catnip4587]

Loving the belt

[@lauravandelft2256]

This is the video that made me fall in love with your content last year, love this one even more 😍😍😍

[@BrookeDavisObi]

I definitely remember the iconic Chloe Nile days. You almost made me purchase one lol! Girlllllll, please don’t sell your Chanel classic flap. They are so expensive now with all the price increases and you might change your mind and then want repurchase. I think you will regret if you sell it!

[@dolledupbyj]

My favourite content of yours! In a world of bag unboxings, it’s nice to see what you’ve actually worn and why you love it or don’t love it anymore.

[@mylenelemay1046]

One day I will have a luxury bag of my dream 🙏❤️ I lost my job because of covid but as soon as I safe enough of money I will gift myself with a beautiful bag 😍 thank you lydia for Making me dream for a minute🌹 xoxo from france 🇨🇵

The Bulgari Serpenti Forever is so beautiful! I broke my arm in 2 places in the snow last week so thank you for keeping me entertained while awaiting surgery. I'm currently on the hunt for a bag for my 30th birthday so have loved this video, thank you Lydia ❤️

[@dace8828]

Oh what a shame, hope your arm heals soon

[@nikkiponcsak]

Awe, hope you get better soon-sending healing wishes!!

Hope you are well soon!

[@ItsmeImalot]

My personal favourite is the Tod's and the Pochette Métis. They are timeless practical and do not break the bank.

[@AnyaYabe]

Your last handbag video was the one that randomly got into my recommendations and led to me binge-watching your vlogs! have been watching for a while now and your vlogs are my favourite :)

[@NoorKhan-bz8ek]

So excited to watch this! You have amazing taste in handbags. I can only hope to have half the amount of grace, style, and femininity that you have! Lydia, could you please do a "How I Care for my Birkin Bag" video. Like if you store it or keep it for display, and how you maintain it and make it look nice.Thx, ily! ❤❤

[@nicolefmullen]

That black metallic Serpenti Forever is STUNNING! So so magical 💫 sometimes I take my Chloe Drew to the corner shop, just to give her some wear!

[@SuperHuddin]

I enjoyed watching this bag collection and reasons for each bag. I love the story behind them. Personally I don’t think Lydia should sell the Chanel Classic flap, you never know she might miss it but do what makes her happy. My favourite is the Chanel trendy!

[@Fiery309]

I’m having a hard time imaging anyone wanting to sell a chanel classic medium flap, haha - that’s the bag I dreamt of 20 years ago and own in many colors! 😍 However, it makes total sense if it isn’t you!! 😄 I love that your collection is practical (insofar as it fits you) and beautiful! Love your videos! ❤️

[@therealisabelbf]

Just wanted to leave another comment saying it would be amazing to see an updated shoe collection too! I know you have wonderful pieces!

[@afreenwright5160]

It’s interesting how regionally popular certain bags are. For example, in NY where I’m based out of, I can’t recall ever seeing anyone carrying Bulgari bags. And yet lots of the UK bloggers, like you and “In the Frow” speak of them often.

[@carathomas8398]

I love these fun videos and learn so much about each bag....I love all of your stories because that is what bags are all about! Such a beautiful collection and it is wonderful how you display them and refine your collection to meet your needs and how you carry each piece.

[@nisreena4108]

Omg .. I have been waiting for this video forever .. I watched your last one about 50 times or more and I still have it on my list of downloaded YT videos

[@laurar9357]

The Jane Norman carrier bag craze! 😂 All the 00's school kids know that was the height of coolness

[@kristiburis3924]

I have watched you carry Louis Vuitton Pochette Matisse to the point that I bought a pre loved one!!! I love your videos! They got me started watching Ali’s. Your videos got me watching Victorias and hers got me watching Alex’s.

[@GlitterMommy]

It’s so funny watching this in 2023 when Lydia was talking about the Petite Malle and how she would buy a small trunk in a heart beat. In 2022 she got the petite valise which is exactly what she described. I bought the Petite Valise bc of her. Love your videos!

[@anne-mari]

You have such a lovely bag collection! Also nice to hear that you're not into exotic leathers, those poor crocodiles and other animals are treated so cruelly.

[@linlove7929]

I’ve never put twillys on my handles and they are ok. One Birkin is 25 years old. Yes there is a little wear but that is to be expected. Hermes will spa the bag and make it like new if it really bothers you. Just wear your bag and enjoy it.

[@kristinam.p.5058]

I wonder how much the bag was 25 years ago?!

[@linlove7929]

@@kristinam.p.5058 about £1800-£2000! It’s gold with gold hardware 30cm. Still a classic x

[@isabelmillican6790]

Fully remember the Chloe Nile times, I became obsessed with the bag after seeing you wearing it all the time. Managed to get one basically new second hand when they were all sold out. Was my first and as yet only designer bag and I am still as obsessed today and wear it constantly. That was nearly 4 years ago now, crazy!! Loved this video Lydia, absolute bag collection goals😍❤️💋

[@arcdanner]

Lydia you are always such a sunny person even though the weathers so foggy.. lol. I always come back to this video for reference because I am starting to grow my own handbag collection and I have a few of the same interest in bags so it’s very helpful and informative. I just have to say, every single time I’ve watched this video, and see the lady Dior bag in sage green. My automatic mind goes straight to: You hosting a sweet intimate greenhouse wine and cheese night with you in a neutral or nude linen outfit or silky neutral dress and the sage green Dior bag by your side. I think those colors would be so dreamy and elegant but also laid back :) hope you are well and hope you see my comment, I’d absolutely love to see you create a photo like that in your own way. Xoxo stay well!

[@arcdanner]

*and candles and plants everywhere*

[@vandakat]

The ones that stood out to me are the sage green Lady Dior (that color! 😍) and the Carolina Herrera and Tods tan bags (so simple, understated and quality looking!).

[@rachelleea]

I believe that chanel classic flap is the medium and i did find the medium slightly too big for me and I've found the small I have is amazing

[@kayceedaye7209]

I loveee these kinds of videos way too much. That celestial Dior is just 🤩🤩🤩!!

[@karenvaladez589]

i love the dior limited editions and i agree that the minis are more elegant and i also love the fendi peekaboo. the tod brown purse would be perfect for my mom. i personally like wearing more affordable bags as everyday bags and more expensive bags for occasions so i tend to gravitate for small evening luxury bags.

[@rebekahduhaime8713]

I originally found you via the first time you did this video! I’m so glad to see an update! I just find you so relaxing to watch!

[@reneeinla2.0]

I love the Chanel Trendy CC the best of all your bags. But the Dior Lady with the wildflowers is a close second. Thanks for sharing. 🥰

[@anarodrigues6136]

Can we all appreciate the fact that you KNOW the names to all of your handbags? WOW! I understand what you're saying about the Classic Flap... Although it is a classic, I wouldn't want it either. It's too "heavy" looking for me... I much prefer the Trendy CC or one of the less popular styles. My dream bag is the Lady Dior in small and I must say I love all the models you've shown! The Celestial one is just pure art! You have a beautiful collection and you made me think about which bag I really want to be the one to start my designer collection 🤍

[@pxl4689]

I liked how your cat interacts with you as you speak. Cute! My favourite is your Bvlgari Serpenti top handle! Very classy and understated yet glam enough for special occassions

[@ShortStoryRelaxation]

Love the story of your grandad dressed to the nines escorting your Aunt to protests, that’s so wonderful ❤️

[@oliviagwynne7569]

The lady diors are my favourites. The space and star themed one is the dream

[@marushkova]

This is the most useful and full luxury bag review I've ever seen! Thank you so much for sharing and making it easier for us girls to chose between the iconic bags

[@paulinajarecka6077]

I would die for the Hermes birkin bag, It is so beautiful. But being more down to earth I will go for fendi peekaboo in burgundy. I love this bag since I saw It in your channel a few years ago.

[@glamluxemama]

The mini Lady Dior is definitely the best size. You have the best bags!

[@nadinelouise2406]

Your celestial Dior has always been and always will be my favourite bag of yours.

[@Annabelf2020]

Would it be too much to ask for your update on shoe collection! Obsessed with this Lydia!! My faves.... the peekaboos .. the fiery orange is unreal!! ❤️ In all honesty though, I wouldn’t be able to choose if I had to! Xxx

[@EEN63]

It is difficult to pick a favorite but I always love the Chanel Trendy! It’s just gorgeous, practical, not too big, not too small and timeless! 😍🥰😘❤️

[@elodiegrenier968]

My favorite is definitely the small pink lady dior 😍 if in the future I ever have money to spend towards a luxury bag, it’s definitely going to be this one !

[@emmacamfield7009]

The best thing about your channel is how informative it is. Have been watching for about 3 years and while I certainly don’t go out and buy everything featured, I have loved and learnt a lot and every now and then I find a product that is exactly what I want or need. By Terry Cc serum, L’Oreal life’s a peach blush, Dennis gross 2-step peel, lano, cosy clothes!, st tropez purity, Dior forever foundation, aerin amber musk, zoflora!, jam shed, all things linen, lemon and ginger tonic lol, hm x Joanna Ortiz... just to name a few. And now, the fendi peekaboo. Every time I see one of them on your channel I think omg I need that bag in my life. 😅 Thanks for adding style, comfort, beauty, confidence, inspiration and aspiration to my life. ☀️

[@shravanthigopinath]

I like how you have downsized your collection based on what you like or no longer use. I draw a lot of inspo for my bag purchases from you - i have probably watched the previous bag collection video (50 best and worst luxury bags) a dozen times.

[@debs7876]

I’m so excited to watch this! I just watched your last purse collection yesterday ! What a coincidence!!

[@nathalieBr]

"...which is the collection that I have built since.... MEOOOOOW" lol :-D

[@amysmith5585]

I love the majority of your bags but I really like the black limited addition lady Dior best. Side note: You can take your large Louis Vuitton travel bag into your local LV store and they will fix it. I had an issue with one of my bags. I had the best customer service experience and felt like a valued customer through that experience. They stand by their products! Just a thought!😊

[@manbagmike4478]

I loved seeing your take on bags that are good, and are not good. Great selection here. I must admit, I have mixed feelings on the Chanel classic flap, myself.

[@RalphMckinnon]

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

[@19irene96]

Feel exactly the same about the Chanel classic flap! It just doesn’t do it for me. Love the mini and small Lady dior!!! Omg and that celestial 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@udjdbfsjbddkh9740]

Sometimes I watch this youtube channel about "luxury on a budget" for fun and she was unboxing a bag so I checked the website. I have to admit that in the picture the bags looked pretty. I will always appreciate a luxury handbag and probably be a bit jealous but personally, I´m happy with the website *BAGXGO.COM*

[@aliceblake4704]

I think my favourites are the sage and the floral Lady Dior, and the Chanel trendy.... tough call, they’re all so pretty! I’m always surprised you don’t have more prada... Anyway, loved this xx

The Chanel double flap 😩😩🤤 lockdown with a 4 year old (who is a little too much like me 🙃) has me clinging on to videos like this!!

[@tanyaoneil-urquhart5141]

Not a fan of the Chanel Classic flap either. If it’s not you just let it go....Also (sorry) NOT a fan of the Birkin 30, I actually find it an ugly bag, and I realize I’m probably in the minority in my opinion. But, I LOVE your Lady Dior bags!! I think that you’re love of mini bags is spot on, they look great when you wear them! Love your hold all’s!

[@safdee]

The pochette, capucine and fendi peekaboo are so you! I remember when it was all you wore- still a fan 🙌🏽😌

[@misstrcarter]

I'm not a big fan of the sage color (or green vibes in general) but when I saw the sage Lady Dior, I could just imagine me wearing it with an all black outfit. A surprising pop of color in the middle of winter. Funny enough, I don't think I could see myself wearing it in the Spring which it seems perfect for.

[@cherylsommers3592]

Love the look of the classic flap, hate trying to get anything in and out of it.

I hope to add to my collection soon. I liked the Lady Di bags from Dior. Don’t get me wrong I like the trendy bags, but can’t justify the investment just yet. After watching the 2020 handbag episode, I bought the LV Pochette this past Fall. I absolutely LOVE that bag too!!! Thank you!
