AVOID THESE BASIC LOOKING LUXURY ITEMS | Don't Waste Your Money On These OVERHYPED Luxury Items

Hi Friends, Today, I'm sharing with you my review of some of the most popular luxury items to avoid 2024 because they'll make you look basic. Some people would consider these a luxury summer wardrobe staple, but I find that they're quite overdone and lost their exclusivity. Let's talk about what not to buy at Hermes and Louis Vuitton, and what no one's telling you about the Hermes Mini Kelly.

Your closet is simple a dream! Not just the *hotdups* bags but the ready to wear that you have is absolutely stunning.

I was in Amsterdam recently and I was carrying my mini Kelly . I only saw one person carrying one . I even saw people staring at my mini Kelly like they have never seen one before . I watch all of your videos and listen to all your opinions but I would say that having Hermes pieces is not basic to the general population . It might be basic to the elite which is 5 percent or less of the population but not the general public . We as a community are very privileged to own these pieces that the general public could not even dare to think of buying one . Just a tiny reminder about perspective I should say . Love your videos still !!

I am glad someone said it! trendy does not mean stylish.

I’ve had the Oran sandals for more than 10 years and have worn them regularly. The leather still looks great and there’re no issues at all. The sound issue is only with the Oasis sandals with the block heels. The Oran sandals don’t make that sound at all. I think they’re worth the price given how well made and hard wearing they are. I know there’re great dupes out there but I doubt they’ll last 10 years and still look the same.

Yes the oran is to casual for a weddings even if it’s a luxury brand. 😅 thanks for ur honest opinion my love. 🙏🏼❤️😘😘😘Sandy

[lalaland]

Agree with all of your points, great video! Don't even get me started on the Orans' noise! I would sadly add pretty much all Celine sunglases with the triomphe logo on them...

[beyourownbeliever]

The first thing what I do us bringing my orans to the cobbler, to resole it with a light rubber sole…no strange noise from the oranistas😉

[CorseriKoening]

My mom bought an LV from *esluxy* and she loves it. It’s been there for over 10 years when she went out.

[deborahcurtis]

Orans are holiday shoes for the beach or just wandering around casually. They aren't for long walks. Someone was complaining about them because they wore them shopping on hard concrete, and how they don't offer any support. But they simply aren't made for this! I pointed this out but it's an unpopular thing to say. I really like the Oz mules, however they would be too hot in peak Australian summer.
Epi leather duffles are so heavy! No, just no! It defeats the purpose...lightweight always for travel IMO.

I agree 100% with all your opinions.Specially about the Mini Kelly: buying a 10k bag where you can’t fit even my iphone???I’m not that girl!!!👧

[Kiki-bsbi]

I’m loving your videos and am learning so much from you about Hermes. I agree with everything you say not to buy. I’ve never liked the look or thin soles of the Oran. But I do love the look and feel of the Chypre. I bought a pair of black Chypres a few months ago and am loving them. They’re really comfortable and look good with everything. I’m waiting for a pair of white ones to come in in my size.

[juliee]

I love my Orans so much that I ended up getting the Santorini sandals as well since they’re a bit less casual than the Orans. It’s a very long wait for the Kelly Pochette but I have share with my SA about not being in a rush for it.

[babyyoda]

Great video! Would you recommend the FER A CHEVAL BRACELET?

[raheelahkhan]

Is your favorite insert for Hermes bags the 7RP
brand? Do you have a discount code I can use?

[allmosts]

Own it, and regret it. You are so right!

[shirleyxie]

Hi G, I really appreciate you speaking about the imperfect things about the mini Kelly to look out for. Not that I plan to own one and I do respect people who do and can understand the excitement being able to, but Hermes doesn’t mean always perfect (these days at least) and we should not let the defects slide if we feel it doesn’t warrant the price tag. it’s just refreshing to hear honest thoughts. 🤍

[johnthegreek]

I really enjoy your channel; I’m not really a big accessory fan from any of the luxury brands, I’m more of a fine jewelry person! I really like the LV Pharrell Speedy P9 50 or the Speedy P9 25; however I would not spend $9, 300 or $12, 400 on a travel bag, if I was ever able to locate one, so I’m probably going to look for a bag in the Damier Pop series, in the pre loved market! I did watch your video on your top 10 list and I was very impressed with the Boucheron ring and the Hermes bag you mentioned, I only started really purchasing luxury brands in the past 2 years !

[zeljkabozic]

Please do you know how long is mini Bolide, nobody says this?!

[awong]

I agree with you on so many of these items and just the general idea when something is SO overdone. The smaller items I can emotionally let go of. But I just feel bad for having spent so much money and effort to attain say my Mini Kellies in the store and now what do we do???

The other summer basic that I am done with is raffia bags. It was novel at first and sometimes priced lower than leather bags. The fashion houses have figured it out and now every designer has a slew of raffia bags at or above the leather bag versions and it is crowded everywhere.

This video got me riled up 😜

[Feisreality]

Agree with you! Mini Kelly feels like a trend in comparison with Birkin. If you compare the second hand prices, the birkin has had a more stable growth over the years. The Kelly just started to accelerate in popularity since 2016. Long term I believe Birkin is investment-wise a better choice.
