True Classic Pieces | Luxury items I've had for years but love more and more

[@mylifemyjourney1]

Quiet luxury is trendy but I don't think it will last that long. It is better to buy what we like instead of being influenced to buy trendy items. I think buying classic pieces are better choice like you just shared the speedy, Burberry coat, Birkin/Kelly, mini pochette....etc. Classic items are oversattured but in the long-run they do increase in price due to the demand. And it will never be out of style. Great video Eileen ❤.

I used to have Salvatore Ferragamo shoes for 15 years! The most comfortable shoes ever❤❤❤ they were gorgeous, really, elegant and classy

[@ColourfulNoir]

Wow that’s amazing! Xx

[@lauraespinosamendez34]

I agree so much with you on the Longchamp bag! It is such a masterpiece in my opinion and they might be the best purchases in a lot of people's closets. They are durable, light and stylish while not being extremely expensive or flashy. Great for travel, work or any other activities. Not to mention the cost per wear ends up being pretty low if you consider all the occasions you can wear it to. Great video Eileen!

Cashmere pieces. Pearls. Silk scarfs.

[@ansigbg]

Cashmere. I Will nerver get rid of my Cashmere until they fall apart. Love them

[@ColourfulNoir]

Agree! Xx

[@OoBIWIoO]

I am someone who isn't into logos, but some items like the speedy are just so iconic and i have it with the logos and never regretted it.

[@flohough1870]

Agree. Plus I think if you only have one item with a logo as opposed to being dressed head to toe, then it's fine. It's not like it's screaming "look at me."

[@OoBIWIoO]

@@flohough1870 I agree. It is all about the styling.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Agree! Xx

[@casuallylux]

I swear by my long champs too. I love my luxury bags but longchamps will always be in my wardrobe 🥰

[@ColourfulNoir]

They’re definitely worth every penny xx

[@katerinahoffmannova7309]

Lucky you that you have not changed figure for So many years! This is a reason you can use the things nowdays too. Love your video.

Thanks so much! 😊

ITA re Longchamp Le Pliage’s being a timeless, understated staple. After years of having nylon ones, I recently purchased a Le Pliage City Tote for travelling... still has the classic silhouette of a Pliage, but the coated canvas is easier to wipe dirt off. I love that it’s still got those sturdy bag straps, a touch of French heritage history behind it, but is much more low key than other well-known coated canvas bags out there. I also have a Le Pliage Pouch that I use as a quickly-get-out-the-door errand small bag. It’s very handy and easy to securely slip on my wrist when doing the groceries.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Love that! Xx

LV speedy 25, croissette, Pochette Métis. Gucci Soho disco in black. VCA Alhambra necklaces MOP and black. Chanel mini rectangular (I use them more than the CFs medium or small) and Longchamp bag!

Words of Wisdom! Even Minimalization should make you Feel Good! The Items that you can continue to use over & over can be Comforting & Give You Confidence Everytime you use them! If something just sits in your Closet (or Home) & doesn't get used it's just Worthless. To either sell or donate things will now bring a Smile to your Face & a Smile, Confidence & Comfort to someone else! Your Wardrobe of Clothes, Shoes, Jewelry & other Assessories are Well Thought Out & Planned & that's why it's all the Very Best for YOU! 🌷😊🇺🇲

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thank you for always showing up xx

[@karinefrommontreal]

I cannot agree more about the Burberry trench! I have mine (knee lenght) for 17 years now! Im using it a lot and it goes to dry cleaning 2x /year… still prestine condition. I also like the lady dior more than Chanel flap (sold all my Chanel classic flaps). When we experience style and items, we know at the end of the day what we really enjoy/fit our lifestyle and esthetic.❤ Thanks Eileen

My first Chanel bag fr my hubby is now a vintage item. I m amazed that I have grown to love it when I actually felt it was too mature for me at that time! My daughter loves it too!

My Burberry trench is my favorite, most used, and most versatile piece of clothing in my entire wardrobe! Love it, and didn’t know how much wear I would get out of it when I bought it to celebrate moving to a colder climate from Los Angeles over a decade ago!

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thanks for sharing!!xx

[@internetnobody3456]

Nothing beats the Longchamp Le pliage tote for me... I bought my first in highschool over ten years ago now, and currently have five 😅 Even though I've tried more expensive totes, I've never found anything that matches it in practicality for school/work. It's lightweight, practical and also doesn't hurt your shoulders even with heavy items. And with a reasonable price, I don't have to baby or care for it as much. Absolutely perfect

[@ColourfulNoir]

Totally agree! xx

[@flohough1870]

Your comment "what I would replace if I lost everything" is a great starting point for anyone who might be wanting to downsize. I think we often get so swept up in the purchasing and ownership aspect of things, we forget about actually loving something or how well it works in our lives. Also agree completely with you on the Speedy 25, it really is a Mary Poppins bag, sometimes I forget just how much you can get in a bag that size and shape! I think Damier Ebene (and even Damier Azur) both sort of fit the quiet luxury aesthetic because neither are in your face logos, just classy squares with the tiny LV name.

[@birdwellbrown5391]

So many things to agree with here! I’ve had my Chanel Reissue, my Fendi Fendista pochette, my Mikimoto double strand of akoyas, and my Cartier Love and Trinity rings for many years. I wear them all regularly and can’t imagine loving a replacement for any of them as much. I have a small collection of only 8 luxury bags and about a dozen pieces of luxury jewelry, and have remained happy with my collection as it is for a long time.

[@dijanawarrender8627]

I have a medium size Longchamp in navy and leather color flap. I also have an all red color in large. I like the light weight but I haven’t used them much. I like my canvas totes more I guess.

[@angelateevin-schweiss4024]

My Gucci soho disco is the most used bag in my collection and it’s still holding up pretty well after all these years. I also bought a Louis Vuitton speedy on a whim 8 years ago and I absolutely love it for travel - just goes to show that sometimes impulse purchases can work out too

[@ColourfulNoir]

Haha agree! There are several times I bough on impulse and they’ve become my holy grails xx

[@xiaoshuli5948]

Love your classic and low-key style always! I only have a longchamp large tote in gunmetal and a mini coach crossbody bag in coral which are 10 years old as I start my luxury collection quite late. I love my other much more expensive younger luxury items of course but those two pieces still mean a lot for me.

I believe 'Quiet Luxury' is a Marketing Term - to get people to buy more. 'Classic Luxury' is a Wise Term - to describe less IS more. My LV Mono Monty, Gold Statement Necklace & Pearl necklace, Wool Coat, Cashmere & Knit pieces and Coach Court Bag - worth every penny. Thanks for Always Sharing Amazing Information.💛✨️

I love my Rolex Daytona and datejust, really versatile and beautiful! As for luxury bag, my Chanel 22 small size is my fav, and I seem to enjoy it a lot more than my other luxury bags. :)

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thanks for sharing! A Daytona sounds lovely xx

[@bingkosaurus]

I love how you wear your lady dior, so elegant, classy, completing your outfit. I often find people who have lady dior bags said that those are too dressy, and end up only decorating their closet

[@ColourfulNoir]

I did think it was a dressy bag too but after experimenting with casual outfits, I now think the lady Dior is really versatile xx

Dear Eileen, lovely video, and very practical Mary Poppins (or Hermione Granger;)) bag. Due to a spine injury I've had to replace my shoes with -rather ugly- orthopedic ones. I simply cannot walk in 'normal' shoes anymore. Very sad, since all pairs were in good condition. I do hope someone picks them up at a thrift store and will enjoy them for some more years. Well made wardrobe pieces last such a long time😊. Have a lovely day, Carolina

[@ColourfulNoir]

So sorry to hear that, Carolina. I’m sure someone would enjoy and take good care of your pieces xx

[@parisryan5950]

Enjoy your video, like your collection and always appreciate your perspective on luxury life style. I have a Longchamp medium sized, but maybe it's time to get a large one lol. I buy luxury items for my own enjoyment, so not really going with the quiet luxury trend, though that Mulberry cardholder is very cute, simple and classic, I'll look for one myself. Also love your dress in this episode.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thank you xx

[@dianecyment1715]

I have had my Movado watch for more than ten years. It is so reliable and has a gold/silver band therefore, it goes with everything. I have my eye on a Patek Phillipe watch, but I can't justify spending over $10,000 on a watch. I would rather spend my money on experiences through traveling.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Traveling is always worth every penny xx

[@Alesanascreamokid]

I tried on that Burberry trenchcoat in the store a while back and can’t stop thinking about it…😂 I took some pictures of myself in it, that I just keep opening 😂 It fits like a glove! But it’s definitely an investment.

[@balletdancernj6894]

Classic pieces can last forever. I purchased the Large City Tote from Longchamp. I love the coating on the bag. I enjoyed the video. 🙂

[@burberryclaretred6676]

Well I finally sold the LV speedy in Epi leather it was a stressful purchase and it was so annoying ti use due to the opening and the zipper had to be replaced and when it was replaced it damaged the leather so there was no winning here ! I also got rid of my soho disco …but what I’ve had for a long time has been my Alexander McQueen and Burberry bowling bag

I just want to say your dress is FABULOUS. I absolutely love that wrap/neckline/stripe design. Amazing. Sad that they had such a good idea on the torso and then their execution on the shoulders didn't work because they didn't line up the stripes on the sleeves to the torso.

Hi Eileen, what do u think about Chanel Medium Boy? Thank you ❤

[@ColourfulNoir]

I used to own a new medium boy and a small boy, I sold both because I found them a bit too boxy. I don’t mind boxy bags if they come with a top handle, but I couldn’t seem to work the boy flaps - it’s like I didn’t know where to place them on me comfortably xx

I have had a pair of Chanel sunglasses for more than twenty years I think and I had an accident but my sunglasses were in their Chanel hardcase so didn't break but the case was damaged😮

Personally I would not spend that amount of money on a Burberry trench. It’s possible to buy really nice designs from other brands for about half the cost or less. The quality is still very good and I’d prefer a longer looser design.
