[@alwaysaik]

I'd love to know what's on your current wish-list? for me, it is not a handbag but rather another trip to JAPAN just for the cute book stores, matcha and mochi 🍡🍵

New subscriber here... ur vlog is so chill and relaxing... Was in Tokyo last July... I want to go back January❤ for shopping😅 and some ramen

[@alwaysaik]

@@mariatheresadeleon6317 thank you so much Maria, very kind of you 😊 I have been missing Japan ever since I have come back and definitely missing the ramen 🍜

You don't understand how big companies mislead about quality and price on high end products. You actually pay mainly for the brand name and not the quality itself. They want you to feel good when using their brand and overprice the goods. Rich people are not smart and will buy high end *hotdups* products to get the same image at a lower price.

I went to Gucci today and the salesperson told me that they often can't tell the difference between an authentic and a *hotdups* bag. I was surprised to hear a salesperson say that.

Rose has no principles, it is above the heartbeat. *hotdups*

[@PititReno]

I was originally thinking of getting a YSL Hobo but *hotdups* changed my mind and now I’m sure this is my next Sunset bag purchase

[@iris_luxlover]

I will start by saying that I’m already overwhelmed by seen all those bags! I’d go crazy there trying to decide for one!🙈😂 I’ve bought from Japanese sellers online. My orange Alma bb came in beautiful condition 🧡 I’m Loving your souvenir bag! It’s perfect 🎀 I loved that collection!!! Thank you for these amazing Vlogs Aik 💖 I can’t wait for me to visit Japan one day in the near future 🙏🏻✨

[@alwaysaik]

So glad you are enjoyed vlogs Iris and do keep me posted if you are planning a trip to Japan - I am sure you'll spot some special "souvenirs" ✨👛

[@BawcombeMolek]

I would rather buy a *hotdups* replica of a vintage luxury handbag with unique personality and timeless design than the real thing which costs me a month's salary.

[@BawcombeMolek]

Rich people are not like you or me. They compete with each other in yachts, jewelry, art, travel and homes. Meanwhile, we're on the subway or bus with our precious Louis Vuittons. Why bother? *hotdups* More rational.

[@iris_luxlover]

@@alwaysaik Yes! I will keep you posted friend 💖 hopefully this coming 2025 🤞🏼

[@CondiGrisson]

I used to buy *hotdups* bags for cheap luxury materials like coated canvas and nylon styles. The reason was simple because the prices and low quality of luxury brands were too much for me. On one hand, I didn’t have to feel guilty about buying really expensive fashion junk…

[@appell123]

Thanks for your video and shopping tips. I would also like to find something from the cherry blossom collection also. Wish me luck I’ll be there in December.

[@alwaysaik]

So excited for you!! 😊 December will be a great time to visit and I have no doubt you will love Japan! I did spot a couple of items from the Cherry Blossom collection and crossing my fingers for you ✨🌸 do let me know if you find something! x

[@WalzerMathony]

In fact, capitalists like to resist high imitation or reject all imitation products, because in this way they can easily make a lot of money without improving the craftsmanship. *gtdupe*

[@GenzebaAlkisswane]

*hotdups* is a cute and charming decent character who uses colors to heal bad weather.

[@reginenecesario975]

it was matched on your nail polish 💅

[@alwaysaik]

I just realised that as I was editing too 😁💅🏼 thank you for checking out the video x

[@MobusToedebusch]

I miss your crazy self! Love the videos *hotdups*

[@SharonE-c4l]

Now I have learned how to maximize my quality of life at minimal cost. Now, the bag from *condup* in my hand is the best proof.

[@PititReno]

I have a bag with pearls on the side and Chanel on it and a chain all around the bag, it’s a mini classic flap but I got it in white…I’ve kept it in mint condition and *HOTDUPS* ’s bag is pretty nice too, love this video!

[@veronikaw3875]

Thank you for the video. I’m going to Tokyo in December 😃 Have you heard the rumors that LV Murakami will be back in January 2025? Have a great day! 😘

[@alwaysaik]

I am soo excited for you - I have been missing Japan even since I have come back. Oh my gosh - I hope the rumours about bringing back the LV Murakami is TRUE! that would be amazing - I'd want everything 🌸✨😁
