Please tell me you’re not representing dupes. I understand they can be wicked great but you’re being a hypocrite. I guess you will never buy anymore luxury authentic items because the dupes are good as well.

Also, another note is that the Coach Cassie actually came out before LV's Pochette Metis!!

Excellent video & useful info. Would love to see more like this. I enjoy luxury channels, but watching someone unbox their 50th Birkin gets a bit tedious. I love my Mini Pochette - thanks for the Coach tip. I'm going to get it in black if it's still available!

I have been watching your videos for a long time! Even more so since I was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 3 in February……… ever since then I have been really sick bcos if all the chemo treatments I was getting, I can hardly get out of bed, so I had to kiss good bye to my favorite pass time shopping. Also bring dice and feeling sick seemed to cure me my impossible shopaholic addiction, I no longer have the urge and desire to want things……. I have been really admiring your ability to self control and in buying choices and purge things that are no longer needed! I have tried but I can not……. Getting to the main point, I have watched you talking about this perfume so many times! Am really intrigued, as I hear so many good reviews! I love perfumes and have a considerable collection. But at the same time I am also allergic to lots of flowers, so choosing the right one can be hard. Since I started chemo I felt it affected my ability to smell and my taste buds too…… so last weekend was the first time since February I felt a little better, we as a family went to Amsterdam had a shopping/ eating day……. I went specially to tried the perfume for the first time. It really was not how I imagined at all! I guess you can smell the sweetness of lychee? That’s the part I really liked.And the rest….. I can not describe…….. but please don’t hate me for saying this, the first smell really reminds me of hospital smell…… it’s the hospital disinfectant and medication smell…… I have to say this part I can not stand…… I am now seriously questioning my sense of smell…… as everyone else seems to love it so much! I really want to love it too…….. really wanting to purchase something for the day, so I ended up buying Le Labo Neoile 31. My 11 years old and 10years old daughters picked for me. Just watched your LV kiragami pouches unboxing. Congratulations on your new purchase! But word of advice the smallest pouch Becareful when you put coins inside, because it will slip out from the gaps…… Have a fabulous day Greetings from Holland xxx

Hope my channel brings some light happiness and distraction on your hard days. ❤️

I've been following your channel passively (totally based on the KZread algo) and tbh the alternatives haven't been speaking to me. Coach is a wonderful brand in itself and I would hate to compare it to LV but I think the brand frees itself to explore other directions. For example the last Coach purchases I've made I've considered "art pieces” like a gold leather Rexy keychain and the leather tea rose applique Dinky. I think it's the innovation in the brand that's worth exploring and no point in considering it as in alternative to higher-priced luxury brands.

I’ve been a Coach fan since high school and that’s over two decades ago! 😂 But this video was for those who are looking for high quality alternatives to the high end designer items so that was the perspective I was sharing. Thanks for watching!

The best dupe for Gucci loafers that are even better in quality and comfort are Paul Green Daphne Apron Toe Loafer. They are not as cheap but frequently go on sales on Bloomingdale’s site.

I like Rioni bags. Canvas is similar to LV, but I think it looks better. The vachetta is treated and some appear to be allergic (not me, though). The prices are pretty good. Most bags are inspired by other brands, but usually with some changes. The Pochette inspired has an extra piece of canvas on the back that fits slim phones. I would say their 55" duffel is better than LV. I think the factory store has been closed quite a bit the last two years, so availability isn't always good.

The cassie is the most amazing alternative to the LV PM .. I bought 2 the leather is fabulous...I'd still love the LV but the $$$ are just ridiculous

I would bet that the coach Cassie weighs a similar amount to the pochette Metis because the lining of the PM is microfiber which weighs more than the cloth interior of the Cassie... I can't test it though because while I have the Cassie, my p.m. is empreinte

I used to love coach, but a very snarky SA ruined the in store experience, and I live on an island and its the only store, I moved on to Tory Burch. Currently using the Cassie this week

Dossier is interesting, but as a MFK 540 fan, the Dossier dupe isn't close. It would be nice to find a less-expensive alternative, but I haven't yet.

Zara Red Temptation is the best BR 540 dupe out there. Last just as long and the scene is identical. I don't know how they've done it but they did it for a modest $20... Makes you wonder why the 540 is so expensive. Perhaps marketing. Zara does a lot of excellent dupes for a fraction of the cost.

I'm sure this will help out alot of ladies and gents that might not have the funds to splurge on luxury items. But one thing I've learned, you're not going to be happy settling for less or something that's similar to the item you want. You're going to long for that bag or pouch you fell in love with and won't be content until you own it. You'll keep spending to try and fill that gap but you're not going to be satisfied. I say instead of spending that $50.00 on something you don't truly want, put that money aside for what your heart desires even if it takes years to save the amount you need. You'll not only be much happier in the end but you'll feel proud of yourself that you were able to be patient and save the amount you needed.

@hellocatwalkcity

2 жыл бұрын

I agree. I don’t believe in settling for less than what we want. Better to wait until we can get what we have our hearts set on. However, some people are just not interested in the high-end designer brands either because they’re sick and tired of them, or they don’t feel it’s worth the money. So by choosing alternatives, it becomes about spending wisely on what we feel is worth it - versus splurging on something we don’t see the value in. Just wanting to give options!
