Three Mid Range Bag Unboxing | Ft. DUYP & Paris64

[@rebeccadaniels7046]

I have 2 DUYP Paris 15 bags in the standard size and I just love them! The leather is soooo nice, as is the quality (stitching, interior fabric, leather and hardware). Melodie did such a beautiful job with them.

[@Somehowadulting]

She 💯 did!

[@DeeHigginbotham-mv3gc]

I love DUYP. I have the small Boston Bag, the Paris 15, the Josette, and the Pochette Accessorie. They are all fabulous bags. I also have a wide variety of SLGs she had made. Everything I have bought is always high quality. It is great to find nice items that are affordable for me.

[@Somehowadulting]

You have her entire collection! I think you definitely get your bang for your buck

[@mrsleyva]

That DUYP Navy bag is super cute 😍

[@Somehowadulting]

I know everyone has been on a burgundy kick. I apparently have been eyeing all the navy bags.

[@MelissaAdams-Wade]

I love DUYP bags. They are luxury quality. The Le Petit paris15 is such a great size. It holds all of the essentials easily. I just love it!

[@Somehowadulting]

They are a great alternative to the LV ones

[@myluxurycloset529]

The micro Paris 15 is EVERYTHING 😍😍😍

[@Somehowadulting]

They're super nice!!

I loveLoveLOVE that you share your HONEST opinion with us, but you take it even further. You share with us, what you shared with the company of their product. Gorgeous pieces and this makes me want to buy. TFS🧡🍂

[@Somehowadulting]

Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoy my ramblings. Let me know if you end up getting the bags!

[@HandbagFoodie]

Enjoyed hearing if your feedback! It’s great to see how indie brands really take feedback to heart and incorporate it in subsequent versions of the items!

[@Somehowadulting]

I completely agree! That's why I love indie brands.

[@reinagiron-hh2xi]

Love the DUYP bags!! I might need one! 😂

[@Somehowadulting]

The word is not might. The real question is which color

[@chiuchiufamily370]

I loves all my bags and slg from DUPY ❤❤❤ I totally agree with you with those cotton strap it needs to be stronger it to soft , hopefully Melody will improve that. L V always have problem I’m tired inspecting the bag every time I order it always have leather cracking and stitches is coming out luxury item need to be better. As now I loves all my DUPY pieces ❤❤❤

[@Somehowadulting]

Thanks for sharing! LV pricing is out of control. I visited the LV store and saw that the made in Italy gold stamp was smudged. I'm like how is this ok?!? Quality control is non-existent apparently

[@missemarie1]

your the queen of mid range. I love that navy/gold Paris 15, I sold my pochette Metis the empriente noir bc leather didn't hold up and became faded and ugly in less than a year and I had to have the clasp replaced. I have a few DUYP SLG and they have held up super well with daily use. I don't like the DUYP logo, that could se improvement. Are you going to get her new Madison bag? They should gift to you for a review. HINT hint.

[@Somehowadulting]

HA! I think at this point I am. Yesss I did notice that! I had my enmpreiente in like a plum red..it was super faded. I still have my on to go in black that one has held up well. Yea I would love to see less logos on DUYP too. I don't think she needs me to review the Madison bag. She had thousands of preorders lol plus, HCC has a way bigger reach than I do.

[@myluxurycloset529]

Of course i love the le petit too❤❤❤

[@cathavenicethings]

I would prefer these two DYUP bags to not have compartments so they could fit more, even if they looked a little different profile-wise. The micro bag will fit my phone if I took off the case, but I am a clumsy oaf so that's not happening. (Well, technically my phone with case will fit in the micro bag but then the bag is almost impossible to open.) But maybe I am just not a compartment person and maybe the compartments don't bother other people.

[@Somehowadulting]

I can see that. I actually wouldn't mind if they were no compartments either. Maybe great one that has an insert to great that compartment if you want?

[@sharetac9296]

Thank you

I often look at the DUYP site, cute things, but… don‘t know, they are either too much kind of dupes for me or I don’t like them enough because they look too random (medium pochette). Or they are sold out bevor I can klick on buy (hcc x duyp). Some items are cool. The straps for the Longchamp purses for example, or the „caves“ for the LV toiletry bags, but you can buy these cheaper on amazon (and I feel too old to wear toiletry bags as bags). I think, the bags they offer are too expensive considering they didn’t come up with the design. I thought the company is in the US, in Texas? There are some items they only sell in the US.

Fun

I do not like when brands outright copy someone else. You need to have your own designs. I said once and I will say again: I do not like dupes and never buy them. If I cannot afford original - perfectly fine, I buy something else. But never ever a dupe. There is such a thing as intellectual property for a reason.

[@user56gghtf]

Going by your logic the only jeans people would be able to wear are Levi's since they were the first. I'm pretty sure most people that own jeans don't just own Levi's jeans.

[@anakabakchi6023]

@ well, I think we can all the the difference between using common designs like “straight jeans” or “wide-leg pants” and when a no-name bag looks exactly like Louis Vuitton or Hermes or Row. If it was just a bag with a clap-no problem but the use exactly the same proportions, lock and handles. You do not need to agree with, it is perfectly fine. I am just saying that there is a difference between “black sweatshirt “ and “scuba style Lululemon” black sweatshirt.

[@KRP-tq8hh]

Louis Vuitton outright copied the Coach Cassie, which Coach evolved from their own Court bag. Designers, even major houses, outright copy other major houses. Odds are you have bought a dupe but didn’t regard it as such because of the label.

[@user56gghtf]

@@KRP-tq8hh The Louis Vuitton Pochette Metis is a redesign of the Louis Vuitton Monceau that was first released in 1986 not the Coach Cassie as many people believe The Coach Cassie was a redesign of the Coach Court bag which was first released in 1989.

[@user56gghtf]

@@anakabakchi6023 There are plenty of no name handbags from Target, Walmart, Micheal Kors, most stores in the mall etc. that got their design idea from some other brand or creator. A design is a design. Just because it's "common" in your opinion doesn't make it not intellectual property, as you put it, of another designer. Most of your wardrobe is a copy of something else someone or another company originated otherwise your entire wardrobe would all be couture one of a kind pieces including your handbags.
