[@OdaGulland]

It’s so so refreshing to see someone thoroughly reflect and think about a purchase the way you do, Brittany! I feel like you really appreciate the quality and material of every item, while considering both practicality and style in the thought process. And you take care of everything in your wardrobe with such respect I feel like, and that is so inspiring to watch since not many others do that. Thank you for all the videos you are making, they’re my favourite!

[@sharifa7561]

perfectly written and 100% I agree with what you said.

[@Corkyromano]

Dresses would be lovely. I’m on the shorter side too so I’d love to hear about your choices.

[@alittlepinkfish]

Can you please show your closet and how you atore items like shoes and bags in their dustbags. I am an out-of-sight, out-of-mind type of person and need to see my items "on display" to remember i have them so i remember to wear them. id love to see how you store items and hear about your philosophy behind such decisions! Thanks

[@aliaelborai]

Would LOVE a closet tour as well

[@annecoddington9903]

I love this series!! Would you consider doing pants at some point? I admire the way you style pants and think it would be very informative. Thank you!!

[@crazyreddoubleq9843]

Anne Coddington same! 🤩

[@alejandraclevesmorales1741]

Same!

[@roxanarodriguez6281]

I would love to see dresses next! I find your style very inspiring, and every week I look foward to your videos.

[@loveanddaisychains]

This was so informative! I’d love to see dresses next x

[@robertah2353]

I love that your bags don’t have flashy logos all over them. Not that there’s anything wrong with bold logos, but I feel like you buy designer bags for the quality rather than to show off the label

[@evra1410]

This!

[@robynnordstrom7799]

The thing I find most compelling and interesting, as someone who doesn't have the lifestyle for investment bags, is the consistency of style. It makes absolute sense that the person who owns the shoes from the previous video would own and use these bags. That's the sort of thing I need to remember with my purchases! I look forward to seeing your next video!

[@twilightrachel4]

I GASPED with delight when I saw this in my subscriptions this evening. Delighted already.

[@tkjm94]

I must say, the Jill Sander bag did not caught my eye at first, but the more you talked about it and the way you styled it made a lot of sense! It's very discrete but a very unique shape that makes outfits that bit more special and interesting. I've never given much thought to white bags but the Musubi absolutely takes the cake. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on your dresses! I'm quite fond of the big silhouettes as well. Yet another great video! Thank you Brittany xx

[@StCh222]

Me: - sees this video in subscriptions - Me: - G A S P - Me: - runs to pour myself a drink and get a snack before settling down to watch the video -

[@devoted2acoustic]

Please dont stop this series! I love to hear you speak about your things, even when it would be socks or underwear!

[@inadurante]

Thank you for this informative video, Brittany!

[@bertuchins99]

Hereu is a catalan word, so you shouldn’t pronounce the H, then the ER is pronounced like “air”, then the E sounds like the e in “bed”. It’s hard to explain the U since in english you never pronounce it as we do, but it’s similar to the first sound you hear in “one”. So it would be something like “air-e-o” (it’s hard to explain, I tried my best). Love your videos!!

[@dcoughla681]

I love how you have a very sophisticated, understated, neutral signature style in your wardrobe and home & your bag choices fully reflect that. It’s impressive that you make very considered, thought through purchases. I agree with you that spending 350 quid on a basket bag is ridiculous particularly when they scratch most of your clothing. The Acne Bag was my favourite. It was a very chic piece but didn’t scream designer. Great vid. Thanks, Brittany.

[@Jubaco117]

Please do more videos on interior design! Investment furniture/design pieces? And maybe a series on wardrobe staples/wardrobe capsule?

[@yersey86]

So willing to watch a dress video next week. I always learn something useful with this kind of videos of yours.

[@leoliebt]

I really, really like the series and fell in love with the Jil Sander bag. I would vote for the coat-video next up!

[@ting-ting7001]

It is beautiful the mini. I’m thinking on buying myself one. It’s gorgeous. It’s still in style 4 years later!

[@clover4me]

I so enjoy your work. I find myself going back again and again through your vlogs, which illustrates your timeless fashion sense. Thank you

[@kitkat8821]

Would love a video on how you decide where to invest in your wardrobe, how to save up the money, etc. Love this content! xx

[@mirandafrazier1]

yes please for dresses!

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

❤️❤️❤️

[@gmsk1]

I had the musubi in the baby pink and loved it, so beautifully made but i just did not wear it enough so sold it. Now you've got me wanting the white

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

Thank you for watching! ❤️ Earlier this year Acne released a limited edition taupe coloured Musubi. It was STUNNING, and I very nearly bought it, but exactly like you did, I think I would have ended up selling it through lack of wear. Sometimes I like the idea of specific colours, but when I try to wear them, it doesn't work.

[@gmsk1]

@@BrittanyBathgate1 I hope you include the sofie dhoore dress in your dress episode! I wish she would release them as i missed out :(

[@persephonescurse]

Thank you for doing such thoughtful and thorough reviews, I especially appreciate your acknowledgment of the part spending your own money plays in the psychology of how you feel about a purchase. However, I am now conflicted about which colour to get the Musubi in, I always thought the white would be quite difficult to care for but it’s held up beautifully. I’d love to see coats next, though I am in Australia and understand if you choose something more practical for your current weather situation 😊

[@MissAlecsandra]

Hi Brittany! Really insightful information which helped me decide and finally take the jump with my Acne Musubi :) Would really like to see an updated bag review, as you were also mentioning one time about the Low Classic Lucky bag. Looking forward to your feedback for the Low Classic one, the Lemaire camera bag, The Row banana bag and anything else that you feel like sharing. Much appreciated! Bisous!

[@duinsophie]

I would love a video on how you care for and clean your leather goods. All your bags and shoes look like they're in such good condition 😊

[@AnetteWang]

Hi. I've just discovered you channel and IG through Estee Lalonde - lucky day for me. In an over saturated social media world you really stand out as someone that choose and buy your investment pieces for long-term and your own style in mind. I really look forward to dive into your earlier content and to follow you going forward. Thank you for a in-depth review. No less than three bags made it to my consideration list. My much loved Alexander Wang bag sadly needs a replacement, I think the Acne one is a good contender. Thanks again, wishing you a lovely evening.

[@khulanbayartod1138]

You do have that rare, neutral without screaming logos bag style that not many other youtubers have. Love ur handbag collection.

[@kenxakenxa4095]

Such an informative video. I was thinking of buying the Tulip Tote but now I’m sure it’s not the bag for me. In love with the design but for me practicality is no 1. Love your videos, a competely new quality of fashion content 😘

[@Johnny-gl2hn]

YES to that trademark bag! I have the same one in black and was just thinking about how much I still love it

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

Making this video made me realise I need to wear it more often!

[@FlyingSnow]

Definitely dresses. I really enjoyed seeing the reviews of the smaller independent brands.

[@JuditArCa]

I love this video so much 😍😍😍😍 I think that maybe "jeans" could be useful?? Either way, i can not wait 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@badnut]

I remember seeing your Instagram posts with the Acne Musubi so often 😂Love the look at it and definitely putting it on my want list! I love smooth leather bags too but the scratches are often the most heartbreaking after all that outings. So tough!

[@cavelleardiel]

The increase is because leather is becoming more scarce. You see since there are so many vegans the manufacturers realized how much cheaper it is to make shoes and bags, etc out of man made materials and still charge the same price as what leather used to be. So quality tanneries are what is left and hence the increased in price. This started a few years back and will only increase.

[@ellenmcquaid3888]

Sometimes I just put your videos on while I’m working (even if I watched them). I find your voice and demeanor so soothing!! Thank you for sharing this!

[@darcyjohnson957]

Please do a video on dresses next!

[@cookiepacific3556]

I would love to see dresses next but anything you do is so nice & calming to watch. Thanks Brittany for the thought that goes into each vlog & Your purchases.🙌

[@destinyeb2498]

You guys I have the basket bucket bag (38:04) Brittany showed from the Worn Store/Australia. And I’m in love it’s so beautiful in real life. It was so worth the money and yes, I did buy it bc I saw BB wearing it from her insta. And I’ve never made a better purchase. I did think about it for several weeks before I took the plunge. Overall 20/10!!!

[@deartokki]

I absolutely love this series! Well you're entire channel really! Your thoughtful approach to reviewing each bag is so genuine and useful and you describe the bags you love in such a lovely way that shows such respect for the design and how they make you feel. I've been eyeing that Jil Sander's bag and the way you speak of it is making me take another serious look at it! I can't wait for more videos (especially your outfit videos ;D) and can't get enough of the glimpses we get of the interior of your house! It completely reflects your style and I love it!

[@karolastawik]

This series is so amazing! You are the reason why Musubi Bag is a serious consideration although I might have more feelings towards the black.. Was a bit surprised about your opinion about it but I hope it’s only cause your heart is more stolen by white but black you’d also recommend anyways. Cannot wait for next episode with dresses! And I think coats/jackets would be also great just later on (please mention more about your Barbour then). I hope you will also consider the tailored trousers episode as the good good ones are so hard to find - would be great and for sure very informative to hear your purchase process with them! Thank you for being such a sincere personality in the social media scene! You are the biggest inspiro! ☺️

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

The black Musubi is beautiful and for anyone who is considering a black bag I would highly recommend, but the white will always be my first love. Thank you so much for watching ❤️

[@karolastawik]

Brittany Bathgate Thank you so much for the reply! As great as seeing new uploaded video of yours is, getting a notification that you replied my comment is even better! 🥰☺️

[@sabinehhhh]

I really appreciated how you showed which bags fit books! I have such a hard time finding smaller crossbody bags that still fit the necessities + a book. I wish the Sophie Hulme bolt bag was in stock, but I can completely understand why she stopped running the business.

[@jsclem6996]

Cannot wait for dresses! You have some amazing dresses!

[@DOAHAVA]

You are the very reason why I bought musubi mini! I love it. The strap is quite wide, sometimes it feels a little bit sticky around my arm. I put them in the dust bag during the summer but will definitely bring it out when the weather gets dry and cold 😉

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

Oh yes, I know what you mean! In the crease of your arm it can feel a little bit uncomfortable in the hot weather. So pleased to hear you love the bag! ❤️

[@LoranLatilla]

HEY LYXBAG !! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day.

[@nickyodujirin]

I also have the Sophie Hulme bag but in the larger version and I love it so much. Nobody really has it and it’s such a beautiful bag.

[@lmvdhout398]

Hi, I'm fascinated by your collection of bags. The second brown bag that you brand is beautiful.👍😉👌🏻

[@emilys9217]

Love these videos and your vlogs! Your appreciation of your purchases as actual investments that you care for and look after is really inspiring to me, especially in this culture of abundance and constant renewal. I would love to see a video on how you take care and clean your leather pieces like shoes and bags in the future!

[@Critchley1]

Love these honest reviews that are purely based on items that are not gifted, I always feel cautious about spending money on items that influencers promote that are gifted, so thank you, this was a great report !

[@sukaicosmica]

Oh noooo....I absolutely Loved the Liffner tulip tote!!!! and the colour is absolutely gorgeous! !! You got the right colour girl! Is not boring at all, it's super special and it stands out! and you style it beautifully with black, navy etc... but on the other hand I will never understand the price of the Loewe basket bag plus I prefer all straw leatherless basket bags.

[@ciagretteskills]

I was about to buy the Loewe basket bag, and you talked me out of it. Thank you!

[@annalam5269]

Thanks for acknowledging the bias that is introduced when reviewing gifted items and explicitly separating these items out . It’s refreshing

[@suzannelee3823]

Review my closet series. Nice to see that it does not involve hauling or new purchases, but simply reviewing your closet and getting your thoughts on them

[@erhs79]

I bought CHANEL Double flap Classic ( I bought 6 at the time ) in 1984 in at The Original CHANEL at 31 Rue Cambon in PARIS at the time the bags were all $130 if you wanted exotic skin it was in the $300 range I sold them and got 20 times the price in 2018 ..SO YES WORTH every penny ...and I got to use them and ENJOY them !

[@inessacramento8638]

I would love dresses as opposed to coats xx

[@florockstheworld]

Looking forward to dresses. I'm currently starting to think about my A/W wardrobe and what kind of coat I might want to invest in, and therefore start saving up for now! So I'd find coats and jackets extremely useful too. Loving this series so much!

[@doomsdaypepper4269]

Oooh, please do pants! I'm the same height as you and it's a struggle!

[@rebecca7055]

I really love this series! It’s my absolute favourite format in terms of fashion. The mindful way you talk about every single item...! I would also love to see dresses and jewelry next :)

[@anvh]

LOVE THIS SERIES. love the honest opinion. waiting on your trainer/sneaker one. Would love a coat one or a jacket one eventually but love this. I quite actually enjoyed the "gifted" section, because you disclaimed it and I personally love finding out about smaller brands or newer brands.

[@kirbyrose1299]

Dresses! Please do dresses! I LOVE your shapes in dresses! P.S. what brand & style rain boots do you wear?

[@hris9214]

I love that this is almost an hour video 🥳🥳🥳🥳 thanks Brittany!!

[@Aquamoonmagic]

This video and your shoe video are EXCELLENT! The details about each item is very welcomed. And i love long videos. Thank you

[@pc2450]

Another thorough and informative video! I love how well you know your pieces. Im in LOVE with that Acne bag 😍

[@anastasiyamozgovaya2591]

Brittany, thank you so much for being so thorough!!! These videos are both extremely enjoyable and useful. And I would definitely love to see a video about dresses next, whereas coats would be great a little later. Thank you once again😊

[@emmacurrens1617]

I'm saving up for the Musubi mini in black and can't wait to pair it with fall and winter outfits!

[@rachelladipo5895]

this is the first video I have watched of yours and I'm really enjoying seeing some bags I haven't been familiar with! That Jill Sander bag is gorgeous!

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

Thank you! ❤️

[@kittywhittell1270]

These are honestly the most useful videos! I almost wish you could turn it into a book? I don't know how that would work actually, but maybe with what you could write about what you consider the timeless qualities of specific items that would stand the test of time. Oh and you could do a guide to looking after things so they will last! Honestly, these videos are kind of what I wished the disneyrollergirl Garconne book could have been in terms of styling. Thank you so so much!

[@raquelandrade6909]

I loved the bag model color everything very perfect

[@ooyezin]

It's my first time watching your video, but as soon as I saw it, I fell for your charm. I should go watch the next video. Thank you for uploading the video☺️❤️

[@katejames3419]

Discovered your channel yesterday and watched your investment shoes video and I just love the way you talk about your clothes/accessories, I appreciate how you take into account every detail. Very much looking forward to your videos on dresses and coats. I would love to see a video on trousers! I don't have many "nice", good quality trousers so would love your insight!

[@jmsic33]

I feel like you’d like the Loewe puzzle bag, I originally saw the bag on Lizzy Hadfield a few years back and fell in love. I feel like you two have similar fashion vibes. But yeah, it’s the only bag I would repurchase in a heartbeat. It’s been around the world with me!

[@lynndaniels4935]

I adore you! So so refreshing!❤️ X from Aus

[@hanashiim]

subscribed! absolutely love everything about this review! pictures of your outfits with the bag, the price you bought it at, the price it's currently at etc. I'm gonna spend the whole night going through your videos today haha

[@katielagreca3628]

Love the bucket bag! If anyone is after similar, Australian brand Ginger and Smart sell one called Apropro. In black, burgandy and a lovely Camel similar to yours, Brittany ❤️

[@SusanB16]

your room aesthetic is so soothing 💚✨

[@QHuda_A]

Its sad to learn Trademark is no longer around, I loved their bags and own two of them, wish I bought more now. Thanks for reflecting on these purchases, I love the Acne Musubi bag, I have it in the rich brown colour.

[@kateharding1399]

Another wonderful video. Also I love that you let us know what the next video will be, something to look forward to x

[@marloesvandamme6421]

Love this series! You totally convinced me to maybe buy the Acne Musubi. However, the "lining" of the bag is now black instead of beige/white. Do you think this version is as easy to style as the complete white one? Also, I love your wallet that you show when talking about the Jill Sander bag. Can I ask where it's from? Thanks for these videos, I love them so much!

[@BrittanyBathgate1]

Thank you for watching! So pleased to hear you enjoyed the video. I noticed that on the Acne website. I'm not a huge fan of the black lining...I don't like the contrast against the white. I haven't seen it IRL though, so I can't judge how noticeable the black lining is and whether it would affect how I style the bag. p.s I have a little card holder that lives in the Aesop pouch :)

[@marloesvandamme6421]

@@BrittanyBathgate1 Thank you for your answer! I also prefer the complete white bag I think, but I will visit the Acne shop and try it on to see how it looks in real life :)

[@aliaelborai]

Another great one, thank you ! I don't even wear handbags or leather and I still had so much pleasure watching this - and this is all thanks to your way of speaking and analysing, I can relate to the way you pick and love your items and it feels nice to see someone who shares this approach. Would absolutely love to see dresses, and already can't wait for the day you'll do jumpers/knits :) PS. do you know Bliss Foster and Fashion Archive channels? I think you might enjoy -

[@sandykwan817]

Oooo so loving your vids. Thanks for showing us your collection. They're all very "you". I've been eyeing the Acne Musubi since I first saw it on a couple of IG's. Then saw it on your IG. OMG, now I have it in shopping bags and wishlists on at least 3 sites LOL. I'm probably just a little obsessed. Think your very thorough review is pushing me over the edge. It's going on my Christmas list for sure, just not sure I can wait that long. I am thinking of going with the midi size though, which right now is only available on the Acne site. Choices, choices!!!

[@Soofisticated92]

Try the memobottle for your smaller bags. I have it in 2 sizes and it is very convenient. Love the bag collection!

Absolutely love this series! who knows how to pronounce Hereu correctly; but the attempts did make me chuckle. Hope you are doing well.

[@mauishopgirll]

Very nice collection! I loved the other (the no branding) basket bags you shared. Adore basket bags but not into the luxury versions. Will also check out the SH Bolt bag. I loved the architectural look of the Staud bag but knew it wouldn’t work for me in either size too. I have the trademark in mint croc. I had the same as yours but returned it and regret it. Just felt a bit too indulgent to keep both at the time (bought both at the same time on clearance at Nordstrom Rack). It was a mistake, wish I still had it, bought it for a song and it’s the only bucket bag that has worked on me.

[@Mstiffany4real]

Loved the Trademark bag, I wish they were still around too. Please do a video on dresses!

[@jays549]

These were all new bags to me so I loved hearing your thoughts. Also, what shirt are you wearing? It looks so easy and light!

I can recommend washing up liquid ( dishwash detergent) for cleaning a handbag. Worked much better than soap after my new bag had a run-in with my bike on its first day! ( it was vegan leather tho, so not sure if that makes a difference)
