Thanks for the video. I will say that fakes have been around for yeaaarrrrssss. I think it’s just brought to light now because of social media. I’ve seen LV and Chanel fakes and know how to get them if I wanted (Asian community) since like the 1990s. So it’s nothing new at all. If it seems a lot maybe people are just more aware with educational videos on authentic vs fake versus before. I wouldn’t let fakes and replicas change my mind on purchasing a bag or not. If I like it, I will buy it. And the fakes are never the same as the real ones. If people can’t afford it and are happy with *jklux* to each their own. My favorite bag is the classic flap. Next is the Kelly, then birkin. I know many Filipino aunties that have replicas to all. And it doesn’t change my mind on them. If you look at the Asian community NEARLY EVERY LUXURY BRAND bag has fakes, including business affinity and trendy

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*

Happy Birthday! The pink dress looks stunning!

Really, let the truth be told, any luxury good to include handags can be found outside of the authentic maker. Who cares what the next person decided to spend their money on, or the next person decided not to spend their money on. Because I see the person in line in front of me carrying a *jklux* of a style/brand that I love doesn’t stop me from purchasing the authentic bag, if I wanted it.

[@HrnanServir]

"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!

Great video. I’m new to your channel and I love your vibe. And, I can’t tell the difference in the two Bottega bags and the *jklux* is close enough and it’s cute so that’s good enough for me.

Happy birthday! Sorry random question, but do you wash your black Chanel top in washing machine or dry clean?

[@raphaellakoo]

@@itsnotlaila thank you💖 I use a styler!

[@itsnotlaila]

@@raphaellakoo like a styler washing machine? What is it called? Thank you 🙏🏻

[@raphaellakoo]

@@itsnotlaila Yes! I use the LG one!

[@ZobooKakiiwa]

I have never been concerned about if others have fakes and replicas, unless they are trying to pass them off as real to sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that horrible as they push brands to be innovative (the classic monogram print was created in part to fight off counterfeiting) which benefits us as design lovers.I guess I can understand folks not wanting the same bag as others, but if it’s a good *jklux* it would make sense that more people would want it, authentic or not
