Hi, I'm Marie. Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the world ✨
I'm an immigrant living in the US northeast with my family. I created this channel as a creative outlook for me when the world gets too much. You'll very likely find videos about my mindful love for nice things, and perhaps everything in between 🌞

I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the kislux leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Great video!! You have a beautiful collection. TFS!
Thank you so much ❤️
Great video! Tfs❤
Thank you!
Enjoy your video and channel as someone who does handbag review video also. :) New subscriber here. TFS ❤
Thank you so much!
I am loving your number one and two! So glad you’re getting the much deserved use out of your B! thank you for sharing!
I get so much joy from using these bags, it’s not really hard to make space for them ❤️
I bring my evelyne tpm to Disneyland 😂 got to bring the fancy there sometimes 😂 I totally thought you got a Loungefly
What use are our pretty bags if we can’t bring them to Disney 😂 and no Loungefly for me, I wouldn’t use it again which would be a pity!
Yay! Was so excited to see a new video 😊. Congrats on your new additions and hope you have an amazing trip!
You are always so incredibly sweet! Thank you for your support ❤
Marie! I am so sorry that I am so late in seeing this! 🫢 But thank you so much for sharing your insights and thoughtfulness in this tag video! ❤ I love the reason for your calvi card holder and I will strongly think about that way to use it too. I think a stadium bag also makes a ton of sense! I hope you are doing well in your new schedule! 🤗
Sometimes I think I just make up reasons to justify my shopping 😅 but so far they have proven to be useful. Thank you for tagging me!
Thanks for sharing! I need to do this too! For a belt bag I love my Stoney clover large Fanny pack! Love the larger size, it’s nylon and has gold hardware 💕
The closet audit was tough to start but ended up very satisfying! I highly recommend it for those who want a refresh 😊
Lovely bag collection...❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! ❤️
How are you still liking your woc? I'm debating on the new pastel pink one that just released....eep.
I still love it and use it often! I also gravitate towards it when I have to bring an evening bag with me on my travels, since it’s smaller than my LV Pochette Metis East West. The new pastel colors are so pretty and I absolutely would not blame you if you picked it up!
I really want to buy this but i have searched everywere how you can make it shoulder bag in another way, without having to do like you did in the video. Can you shorten the chains, make them double, if you understand what i mean? When you open the bag, is it possible to pull the black on the inside ?
The chain is not long enough for it to be possible to “double the straps.” And you could pull the leather parts to tuck it in inside the bag itself, but you’d lose bag space and you’d have force the D-rings to fit in the leather hoops for the chain, which I honestly don’t recommend.
Lovely video! May i ask what boutique are you shopping at?
Unfortunately I am not comfortable giving out that information!
Great video. I'm just now seeing this. I have to give this a think because off the top of my head I can't think of one random reason that I've bought luxury...other than the fact that buying luxury in general is pretty random. 😂
I can’t argue with the truth! 😂
Thank you for been real
Thank you!
Another trick: If you pull the leather part of the strap out of the bag you can make a shoulder bag with double chain😊
You’d have to force the D-rings through the leather hoops which I honestly don’t recommend.
I have the same chypre sandals 😊
They are great footwear!
Great tag! I just love Hermes gold color ❤
It is so rich and dreamy 😍
Thank you for tagging me!! ❤ like you, I’ve been traveling SO much for work this month, so I’m definitely behind. I’ll make sure to film my own response and get it up soon!! 😁 I LOVE the pieces you shared, especially your Bastia… is it in Poppy?? 😍 If so, we are leather color twins (I have Gold too but those pops of color are somehow more special). Excellent point about the Calvi and business cards-I should do that too, as I also forget mine all the time! 😅
It is Rose Texas! Such a rich pink color 🩷
Love your collection. We have the same CALVI cardholder. New friend here. 🧡
Thank you so much! ❤️
Enjoyed seeing these pieces and hearing why you added them to your collection! Hope everything goes well for you at work! 🫶🏼
Thank you so much! ❤️
I’ve been looking for a bag to meet the strictest of stadium rules and that Celine clutch is perfect. Absolutely not a weird reason, lol!
Haha, I’m glad you think it’s not weird! I feel like it isn’t a typical thing to think about when buying a luxury bag 😅
this is a perfect tutorial. thank you. I have to go check out your other videos but is your store pretty big? my local store is small and i’ve heard they “don’t have a lot of inventory.” but I would imagine hermes allocates inventory (including QBs) to all of its stores. anyway, just something i’ve been thinking about as i’ve been getting ready to launch my “journey.” 😅
I would say my boutique is pretty small with a clientele that tends to prefer neutral colors. So the wait tends to be longer for those colorways.
New Subscriber here! Love your take on mindful luxury! myself an enthusiast of vintage! 😃

I really need to go through a downsizing exercise! I know it is a freeing experience. Thanks for inspiring me!
So glad this video was helpful! I completely agree that downsizing can be freeing.
please do a video on the bags you sold!! :)
That's a great idea! I'm going to go through my downsizing notes again and see if I have enough material for a video.
please also share how and where you sold them!
Hahaha, at first glance I thought it was genuine! Ha ha *gtdupe*
Hi, would like to ask for your opinion since you seem like a very logical and structured person like me. Since you have tried both contemporary and luxury bags, do you think luxury bags are worth thee design and quality? How do we justify the high cost per wear when compared to contemporary bags (e.g. maybe an alternative bag which would have served the same purpose)
Hi there, thanks for this excellent question! One of the most important “features” for me when it comes to handbags is that the house/brand has a reliable repair service. I really value longevity in my pieces, and I mention many times in my complete handbag collection video that I am planning to use my bags for as long as the houses will continue to accept my bags for repair. When I was doing research for my downsizing exercise, none of the contemporary brands had a reliable repair service. I had high hopes for Coach but saw mostly terrible reviews for their repair center. Only the luxury houses and Longchamp had tried and tested repair centers from my research. So for me it’s not just about the purpose and role of the bag, but also sustainability and longevity. I don’t ever think about cost per wear, I just want my bags to last. I want them to be repaired when needed. I don’t want to buy bags every 5 years. I don’t follow trends so I don’t ever feel the need to refresh my collection anyway. I hope my response made sense and was helpful!
Very nice collection! Love how thoughtful you were about everything. Great job!
Thank you so much!
Totally agree, Inspiring!
Beautiful pieces! Let us know how the teapot works out for you as I’ve been eyeing one too! ❤
So far so good after a week! My mother in law in particular is a huge fan 😂
I love your thought process behind each of them and now they will get used. I’ve purged many in the last couple years. Gave many to family, sold a lot.. I use to buy a lot contemporary Because I was convincing myself that it’s cheaper but then you just hsvd more stuff and more stuff you won’t reach for. I’m prob at 15 now I think with contemporary and luxury mix. But most importantly I’m wearing and enjoying them.
I find it fascinating how stuff just accumulates! Frankly, I was horrified when we started packing and I saw just how much I had 😂 the culling was actually not as painful as I thought it would be, just really exhausting, but glad I did it because like you I am wearing and enjoying all my items.
You have such a beautiful and carefully curated collection! Love how mindful you are about each bag in your collection. Also, even though my Lululemon belt bag is probably my most used bag, I have the same issue with things spilling out. 😂
Thank you ❤ I really want a functional collection and hate seeing expensive things not being used so I wanted to make sure I had a collection that would be well used and loved. I don’t know how other people do it, but I really can’t make the Lululemon belt bag work, that opening is too big 😂
This is AMAZING, thank you so much for doing this video and giving me a shoutout, I appreciate it so much! I LOVE your choices and the stories behind it all. ❤ Side note: do you love your H teapot? I’ve been trying to get my hands on one from a different line!
It was a great exercise for me, so thank you for the tag! And I do love my H teapot! This one is a lot bigger than I had expected, which is great because it makes it easier to clean. Plus, it doesn’t seem that fragile.
Cute boots! 😊
And comfy too!
