Moral of the story : Quality first, brand second. If you're comfortable and confident of being who you are, you don't care on what people say about what you wear.

[@perspectiveofme]

Exactly!

[@allytrudie864]

Quality only. Brand means nothing unless you lack all self esteem and operate at the level of a high schooler brain.

[@Seraphine07F]

​@@allytrudie864 Exactly

[@anttoronto3202]

They look more luxurious because they don’t scream at us. Subtle, classy, unique. Even Hermes bags are yelling these days. 😂

[@Serena_9]

Hermès bags aren’t screaming luxury. It is some of those who own the bags are bragging on social media.

[@maryama8998]

Exactly social media has just made every brand so cheap.

[@zebrastripes3786]

It’s because they are not better quality wise,you’re just paying for the logo. They pay some celebrity to wear it,create a fake relevancy for it & people fall for it.Not saying quality is bad but not worth that price tag

[@555Plus]

Only thing that scream is their popular men's belt with a large "H" buckle.

[@user-ek5ls6hp9i]

i agree

[@ninanina4324]

Furla is also timeless! It is an Italian brand founded 1927.

[@bs-hl2ir]

​@@karatnI think I saw some Coccinelle bags witb suede lining

[@perspectiveofme]

Oh I really like that brand. Might make a video about it soon!

[@zeldalazino463]

100% agree!!!

[@mommawolf9653]

Love furla.

[@myartfulife]

❤ Love Furla too!!!

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

Please, “bore me” with more mid-range brands! I want to hear your whole list! This is the price range I shop at; I want top-quality, natural-fiber/material, classic items that I will use forever, not status logos.

[@Jenny14349]

I’m so happy you introduced me to these brands because I’m looking to buy my first luxury handbag and I’m not interested in Chanel or those other big ones. I am ready for part 2,3,4,5 and so forth. If need be, I hope you create a whole playlist on this.

[@kemabenjamin6087]

COACH has really improved their designs. Quakity was alteady outstanding.

[@elizatinygolfer]

More mid luxe bags please!!!!❤

[@junejasminedavis2275]

Yes totally agree

[@Seraphine07F]

Nothing mid about these! These are better quality than Chanel & Gucci & more (& anything LVMH is terrible quality now altogether) I have some Vintage from my Great Aunt but would never buy the current versions🙏🇬🇧

[@jo6731]

A lot of British royal women like Camilla, Sophie, Zara, Catherine regularly carry an Aspinal of London bag.

[@Seraphine07F]

Definitely

[@LilMilady]

I have that emerald green Aspinal bag and it goes with just about everything. Basically any green pairs well with most colors, as does a sunshine yellow. I have many bags in both hues and my two winter coats are a mid green and golden yellow. Taking chances on bags and coats are a must and green is a color that will pleasantly surprise you. Yes, do more mid range bag videos. You are right, they are a better investment today than their high end competitors.

[@jocelynsmyth6604]

I had never heard of the brand before today (I'm a little ignorant on the subject) but oh my gosh ot's beautiful! And seems to have some good ethics behind it

[@ouafa2007]

I like "Liebeskind Berlin" a German brand. Nice design and good quality for reasonable price.

[@justynakania151]

i love their shoes!

[@catherinemori4496]

We need to talk about Mulberry! 😉. Beautiful! Gorgeous leathers, made in England to exacting ethical standards. Workmanship first rate. Has twice-yearly sales. I order then. It takes about 3 days and shipping of 30$, all taxes are included. So, the Canadian price on the website is exactly what you pay!

[@cookiedough641]

When are the sales 👀

[@lydialarina]

Thank you for sharing this! I didn’t even hear about many of the brands you mentioned in this video, but it’s definitely worth checking them out. I’m very glad I found your channel!

[@acs3451]

Bally, is also a great brand. Or longchamp.

[@GhislaineBeauce]

Aspinal are much older than 2001, Margaret Thatcher used to wear them when she was Prime Minister in the 1980s.

[@smorris7115]

Loving your channel! I appreciate the luxury brands and own several Louis Vuitton,Gucci bags...however I am also very conservative and legitimately had guilt spending that much money just for brands sake. I'm now at the stage of not having FOMO. I'd much rather own an exceptional quality product that doesn't scream a brand that everyone and their aunt now has(fake or not). You are offering great options for those that want quality under the radar...that leaves the observer to say..."I love her bag...I wonder what it is?" The true definition of quiet luxury.

[@missswiss7538]

Yes!❤

[@chrsitineadriaenssen6074]

Longchamp and Bree

[@cduff4505]

I’m so glad you add Coach! I have bags from Coach from 25 years ago to today and the quality has not changed over all the years! Looks like I may be branching out to a few new designers! Thank you for the video!

[@reneesmith695]

Yes to more videos about budget friendly luxury quality bags!❤

[@96unique2]

Would love to see a part 2! Already have my eye on a 2 of the bags in this video

[@vanessaredford9731]

LOVE this! I've been looking for a truly quality bag. Now I have several terrific options. I appreciate your channel 🙏✨️

[@alexandrasmith7682]

Two important things to remember ...... Buy leather if you can afford as it truly last longer (except if you follow an alternative lifestyle then you will know the equivalent) ..... And buy the shape that works for you! I am five foot tall and under 100lbs so I really don't suit massive bags ..... I buy camera, small totes, work bag is the ever useful canvas, and I buy tiny bags big enough for a key, lipstick, and credit card that have a shoulder or wrist handle for evening. I primarily purchase Aspinal of London, LK Bennett, Russell & Bromley, Tory Burch. Always interested to hear about lovely new suppliers but the "problem" is when you have found the bags that work for you, you tend to stick with them and just treat yourself to be new colour!

[@wizardscauldron]

I adored bags and have these brands: Chanel, Furla, Cole Haan, Coach, Diane Von Furtensberg, Lancel, Sequoia, Kate Spade, Marc Jacobs, Longchamp, Ferragamo, Dooney & Burke, Rebecca Minkoff. Coach was the first pricey brand I ever owned. And shopping at the Chanel boutique in Paris was amazing!!! I took a photo with my chanel shopping bag at the staircase leading to Coco Chanel’s apartment. Glad I bought it since the bag increased in price by $2,000 in just a few years. It was about the entire shopping experience.

[@pashminagal]

Yes, please do a part two! I hadn't heard of some of these brands before, and I'm sure you have more gems up your sleeve!

[@perspectiveofme]

On it!

[@tatianah869]

My new fav bag I wear everyday is a Berliner Bag Harlem backpack. It’s super affordable and very chic. I get so many compliments on it every day.

[@junejasminedavis2275]

Yes please more videos about middle affordable branches … thank you so much .. great work

[@embeee2011]

Love Coach, Wandler, and obsessed with this video!!! Looking forward to checking out some of these brands which are new to me! Well done video!!!

[@perspectiveofme]

Yay! Thank you!

[@diekleineprinzessin]

The german brand "Aigner". What do you think about the quality and designs? Do you know them already? I think they are great. Especially the Amal Chain is a piece of art because it has leather on some links. I would love it, if you would do some research and make a Video about it?

[@loriblack5785]

Learned one new one. Great video, love to see underated brands get some airtime.

[@LoveFromALondonGirl]

Loved loved this video ……… please can do another mid range designer bag range? I had no idea about Lalage Beaumont …….. literally obsessed!!!!! Thanks xx

[@1queenruler]

Your videos are fabulous for me as a Personal Stylist, thank you and keep it up!! ❤ 👸

[@Mari-hh6it]

Loved it! I would like to see a part 2 of this video xoxo

[@savvyroca]

Thank you for sharing! I havent even heard of Lalage

[@Selflovingsoul]

Love some of these styles. I would love it if you could link all of these mid-range luxury brands in the description.

[@asharamisal4382]

Yes definitely yes more videos on this! I would to you easily for hours lol. Great video thank you!!

[@elisaelisa371]

And behind Aspinal design, there is the fantastic and beautiful Mariya Dykalo. Such a talented woman!

[@Lily4444]

The Bridge Italy and Rebecca Minkhoff 👌

[@karenc7711]

Very nice video, thank you. I ordered a Lalage Beaumont handbag which should arrive soon ... can't wait. It resembles a Kelly bag at a fraction of the price. BTW, it's pronounced "la la ghee" ... Just discovered your channel and have subscribed. Best wishes!

[@expensivenoodle]

YES to everything in this list! 😍

[@GlamDrMona]

I have been loving your videos! Please do a part 2. xoxo

[@perspectiveofme]

On it!

[@shelhoyt]

More like this please!

[@tabby8166]

love this list! please create more of these vids

[@poppet808]

All the options you showed are beautiful and the best part about them is the don't have screaming logos and brand name printed all over them!

[@jala22]

great video, to the point, and exposed me to great brands i didn't know about!

[@perspectiveofme]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@lucascavalcantelins5458]

Aspinal looks really beautiful.

[@kwokleongawyong2895]

LVMH , tapestry, Chanel really kill luxury fashion, are fashion without the designer's soul. Is has become a souless corporate detached endeavour.

[@GiselleMetcalf-Grosso]

Great purses, and I love your picks. Your voice over is also very professional. I just subscribed.

[@perspectiveofme]

Thank you so much! And welcome to the family! :)

[@shaneilellis9832]

I'm always supporting.

[@ktakea76]

Would like more recs in this space!

[@QueenV14]

Love Coach 💜

[@kimberlysoto6864]

Any given day on one walk through atlanta Airport for me at work, I see countless LV Neverfull bags. Interestingly enough they were the cost of a stimulus check back in Covid days. 🤷🏻‍♀️. To me it’s not luxury when dime a dozen on any given day are sighted. I prefer to look at a bag as an expression of art , creativity with what your wearing to enhance a look. Somehow dime a dozen and everyone has one just doesn’t give that feel of a luxury bag status any longer in my eyes. If you see it coming and going then it’s no longer a special item. These bags depicted in this video are beautiful. And none of these brands have I been acquainted with. Interestingly a couple of these mentioned were London creators and companies. Handbags are extremely important in British style, hence those gorgeous bags. Thank you for sharing!!

[@violakarl6900]

strathberry is amazing too imo

[@aBirdAndHisBoy]

I just discovered Aspinal around Thanksgiving and I LOVE them! Beautiful designs and great prices!

[@wendishaver9520]

need more of these videos!

[@clockwatch5222]

The upper middle class are the biggest customers of luxury brands. Since the cost of living crisis, luxury brands are now facing a down turn in profits, as the upper middle class are spending less. The elite buy almost unknown quite/stealth, uber luxury to symbolise their class & wealth to the other elites. These creme brands are not seeing a down turn in profits, as billionaires can afford to keep spending, despite the cost of living crisis.

[@jayblack3926]

Love to see more midrange brands, Longchamp?

[@ah5721]

Dooney and Bourke should have been on this list , quality leather and timeless styles in the Alto and most of the Florentine collections !

[@lorichartrand6465]

How do you feel about Staud? I just purchased a large tote from this brand. I like the details. 😊

[@camillefunn6405]

Great video!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@yothiga]

More of these please ❤

[@nikolajovicic174]

Lalage seems to be the best choice among these brands, though with a bags costing +$1,000 it's not that cheap to begin with.

[@DarrylRajamae-tx3fk]

The bags look like they are well made the styles look nice

[@cyberartsy]

Part 2 please!

[@andoriasay5888]

Polene next please ❤️❤️❤️

[@nmm5214]

Parfois the bag i brought from that company is durable and is able to withstand rainwater to a certain extent. The outer material is water resistant.

[@giannas1096]

Yes more videos please!

[@user-ek5ls6hp9i]

these are stunning!

[@LiLi-ps5vb]

I have a Demellier Vancouver and a London MIDI. While they are beautiful, they hold very little. I have a Loewe Flamenco mini that can hold a lot more than those, though it looks much smaller.

[@c.grande6552]

Yes interested!

[@user-fz4qb8vx4i]

Yes please post more of mid range great bad brands!

[@milaberi9491]

Great video! Thank you ❤ We are waiting for the part 2 ❤

[@rachelle.alexis]

The Lalage ones are exquisite

[@bagloverlux]

Never heard of LaliageBeaumont. ❤

[@PetulaAlicia]

Yes, please give us more mid-level brands.

[@millameira8752]

Love it! ❤

[@evie1111]

I love Lalage❤❤ will buy that soon its closer to Kelly which I wanted but cant afford it

[@bindlesnort7705]

Tusk New York …amazing quality and great prices with excellent customer service.

[@jayadama1301]

Handbags are addictive!

[@stephaniemoura9325]

Please keep going!!! I’m begging haha

[@user-vs8vb5ud1k]

What about Donney AND Bourke, a bite old lady in some styles. I've come enjoy what I've seen on QVC, and one day, will own a florentine bag yet.

[@kellijasper5912]

I purchased one a year ago after wanting one for several years

[@CF.]

I just bought one. Better quality than Chanel.

[@druidriley3163]

Bought one at a thrift store. Still in excellent shape, will probably outlive me. Have a Coach that I love. Have my eye on a crossbody Dooney & Burket at a thrift store.

[@TheresaTV1]

I adore D&B. Quality is excellent and they have the top-tier limited edition Disney prints! ❤️

[@dianamayfield5615]

I have several D&B bags and even after years of everyday wear, they look brand new. Great quality.

[@CherittaStewart]

Yes for more mid luxury brands

[@rhabarber3395]

I love coach so much ❤❤❤not so expensive amd good quality

[@Sayuri240]

Yes, more please! ❤

[@gihanzohdy3284]

Tory Burch also goes unsung and the brand does excellent products.

[@Nighlune]

How do you feel about Michael Kors and Kate Spade? My wife and I love shopping with them.

[@TheresaTV1]

I don’t think they are considered mid-luxury brands.

[@ancutagemanaru]

Great. What about Ameli Zurich?

[@pepercat17]

Dooney and bourse’s Florentine!

[@allwhatilove914]

*A Kelly also comes with a shoulder strap. 5:40

[@mariala5553]

Tod’s, please.

[@acha77arc]

What about brands for men. I love your content.

[@afairwoman7410]

What do you think about Brahmin bags?

[@caro....]

My favourite is Liebeskind Berlin ❤

[@wizardscauldron]

What about Lancel (Paris), Sequoia, LongChamp, Sezane, Ferragamo?

[@cosmic-tiger]

Two things regarding Aspinal. You feel like it’s a bag royalty would use because it is a brand the royal family uses! The late queen had Aspinal of London bags & so does the Princess of Wales. Also, the founders name Iain is pronounced Ian (ee-an).

[@JoleeSO]

Love it

[@EmmaHacker-kj9un]

I bought a Wandler Hortensia medium bag in tan croc in 2018 for less than $350. It was on a crazy great sale and the brand was less expensive then. I would have been priced out at the nearly $1k it costs now. My bag still looks brand new and I get compliments on it constantly. I’ve been burned by Coach in the past and am not interested in revisiting. I would much rather support a less well known brand.

[@jamisonrayned.7052]

Coach turned me off after a handle was peeling a month into use. This was about 10 years ago. They didn't stand behind product either

[@deannstanglenny9431]

Same, was told it was my fault as I held the handles with my hands after 2 weeks😂. Luckily our retail consumer dept was a few doors down, I informed the sales individual that I shall go there and she can discuss this matter with them … alas ..instant refund. Second bag with same issue in short time. My last Prada lasted me 10 years with everyday use, handles still perfect. I will never spend a cent on any Coach

[@nida_ihsan]

It would have been better if u had mentioned the links of these brands as well

[@lindabertino5987]

LOVE Karl lagerfeld

[@christinisamathnerd]

I'd love to get your opinions on Brahmin bags. ❤

[@TubeYoYOYO]

Please share mid luxury non leather brands - for people who are against cruelty towards animals
