The real luxury is custom made artisan made clothing and accessories from independent designers who make it by hand! No labels no slave labor just pure quality fabrics and work. Unique pieces that no one else has. This is real luxury and it doesn't even cost what crap like Chanel costs.
I agree with you about the companies that authenticate bags. I used one once and by accident took a picture of my kitchen island. That was the picture on my authenticity certificate
At some point (and I blame social media) people began confusing buying expensive brand name items with having style. Style has aways been individual. You used to look at magazines, or if you were really into fashion, the collections. Then you would choose the items YOU liked and fit your style and would buy them (or the inevitable copies). Then you would combine them with your own items and maybe your Mom's or Grandma's. Yes, it was always good to have basics, but basics did not make your look, they were the foundation that you then layered on top of. I love having small designer brands in my collection and have been opting more and more for those than anything with a big name label.
I love watching your videos Dacob, I feel like you keep me grounded when it comes to luxury bags, that it's actually not worth my hard earned money so I just wanted ti thank you for what you are doing, you are a rare voice in this subject, especially on social media
I have only one designer handbag, I bought on sale 12 years ago. It´s a D&G Sicily in a light rosé tone. I simply loved it and it was 60% off. I use cotton cloth bags, every day … :)
Dacob you are a true joy!🎉❤🎉 and yes we all agree these "influencers who are not authentic as you said, telling everyone they love a bag one day and then vlog sale the next..your comments were spot on....many have shared with you they have unsubscribed to them and sadly that is the difference in the great handbag youtubers of the past like BJTaylor( she was phenominal ) and many of the ones today.😢 ❤
I'm so over it as well. Vlog sales, and 'massive haul' unboxings. Ugh. I just looked at someone's 'massive luxury haul' and unboxing. It's a month before Christmas....really? 😮
I agree with everything you said ! Yiu had me laughing at the umpa lumpa and the inflluenbers that say "obsessed" and then two weeks later it's for sale 😂😭👏🏼
It really doesn’t matter what you buy these days. Everything is crap. I have issues with EVERY SINGLE high priced item I have bought in the last year. My bed and matras, my closets, clothing. It’s insane and depressing. Second hand vintage is the way to go.
Yep, that was my experience too this year. I bought four dining chairs from a luxury furniture brand. It was an exhausting chore from order to delivery. One chair of course had one leg too short, which took them another 3 weeks to correct but they never contacted me again. I had to constantly call them and ask when I might receive that repaired chair. One chair was 1k mind you. The customer service was never bothered for a second. They were like "whatever". It's crazy.
@ApricusInaros There used to be some sort of pride for craftmanship and delivering the best you could. Honestly, Im starting to believe we just dont know how to make things properly any more. 1k per chair and then such an atrocious quality and customer service is mind blowing
oh i miss the days when a trend was a trend for more than 3 months! i’m wearing more plain and plainer stuff recently, i think i have total fashion-depression😂
I don’t see a problem with wearing plain clothing with a designer bag but it still has to make sense, a speedy with a casual look seems pretty natural but wearing a timeless with a head to toe TikTok shop look is just ridiculous.
‘Authenticators…they give you a piece of toiletpaper with their shit on it!’ 😂😂😂 Love it! You nailed it with this video, and you always do it in such a funny and spicy way 😁🥰
I was watching Diane Gilman on RUclips, and she was saying that, living in NYC and eating out a lot, she doesn't see all the designer names anymore. Times are changing as they always do but some of the high-end brand names seemed to have missed the mark. I also think, my opinion, I think the high-end brands are made in China. If I am correct, I believe three things have to be Italian in order for the bag to be stamped 'Made in Italy', and one of those is the label. But I do think they are made there in a factory, and it may explain why the fakes are almost or if not, identical. I do like the classic vintage Chanel bags, and I think they will become more valuable in time.
I feel like people should spend their money on whatever they want, wherever they want. I am not bent or sore over anyone else's choices. Yes, there are far better things to do with your coinage, like experiences (entertainment and travel). Still, people have a right to do what they want. I do agree that these trends are a joke, every other day there is something new. It's really recycled ideas and fashions.
I don’t mind a pre-loved bag, the thing is sometimes a vintage bag can make you look different from other people. Like you say, white T-shirt and jeans, a vintage bag could be cheaper and that person can spend more on an outfit.
@ I had seen some Hermes bags on a video in Japan or Hong Kong that were way cheaper. The thing about the corporate brands is that they are desperate to sell in China because of the high population. So a lot of brands have made it cheaper. All a big scam really where we foot the bill at the highest price. When those Tariffs happen, there could be a drop in price to get people buying on a domestic level. Unless even the handmade stuff is made in China. Armani, Hugo Boss, Superdry or mid luxury brands could go out of business.
Agree. But also most of these videos that people say it's not worth it, the person has a wall of bags right behind them (or tucked away). Of course one can say that if you already have it. lol
Amelia Rose posted recently about how 'the Birkin is not that special' I feel you'd agree with that video. Prestige is not the entirety of something's value.
Oh Please help me !! I don’t care for bags at all . But I’m totally in love wit the 2.55 , obsessed. Although I know the quality is not good anymore I stil want to own this bag as my first and only Chanel bag . I probably never would use it , just put in on a shelf and look at it .. a waste of money I know .. but loves make blind I guess…
Funny thing, I rarely use my classics, they’re too dressy (I have beige double flap, and a navy). I do use my vintage bags that are more casual. Most I’ve had 10-15 years and have straps that can extend out to wear crossbody. I just yesterday pulled out a biggish faux fur that I’ll wear this winter. It’s a bit worn but still in excellent shape for everyday. I dunno how many other bags I could say that about (older LV the leather straps dry out. Gucci linings peel 🤷♀️). Anyway, all keep that in mind before investing in a new classic - I get that you simply want to have it. I remember that feeling.
I keep an eye on the designer brands but I only own 1, a YSL wallet on chain that I bought preloved. What I go for are midrange contemporary brands, no-name items directly from the artist or vintage.
Dacob Dah-ling. Just got back from Paris. Most women were overdoing Polene. Only saw Chanel classic at your Place Vendome. They were eastern Asian or women who had their arm around a granddaddy. Saw Chanel and Louis Vuitton jewels - they looked fake - lol. You go girl.
Totally agree with you Dacob! Can’t stand those Umpa Lumpa saying I’m obsessed and then next thing they say not worth it and then end up selling it. I never trust Authenticators judging only by looking at pictures. So stupid!
Did u know it cost $800 to make a birkin? I didn’t know. That’s the information on the web but I do know luxury brands charge a 10 to 12 times multiplier on their bags so it’s plausible
Arnault is not accused of any wrongdoing in the trial after paying a 10 million euro settlement in 2021 to close a criminal probe into LVMH's role in the case. He has said that the recruitment of Squarcini was conducted by Pierre Gode, his longtime right-hand man at LVMH who died in 2018, and that he was unaware of information allegedly collected by Squarcini, according to court documents.
Hahaha, Dear Dacob 🥰love this commmentary video so much!!! I only have two vintage Chanel bags and I got them cuz of the love for the heritage and for their impeccable quality. Do not need anyone to validate me based on what I'm wearing.
I agree with you 99%🩷 1% is that I only go with tiny bags that holds cell phone and keys 🤷🏻♀️I do have bigger ones when the kids were small and I needed the space
Hi, thank you, Dacob, for all your videos. I'm curious about your opinion on Hermes Grooming bag? I wanted to get it when it cost 1400 pounds, but I thought it's a FOMO or trend... but I'm still thinking about this bag. I just can't process the current price tag... what's your opinion?
great video Dacob. I really resonated with your thoughts on the trend cycle as Im very interested to see the prices of the Pharrell speedy's drop now that the Murakami leaks from LV have begun to surface. Will everyone forget they exist? haha. Also nice to hear your current thoughts on Hermes as I still hold them in high regard as im sure many do.
I use to watch a youtuber who swear she created her design I paid 250 dollars for her sandals than I went to Greece found the same sadals for 20 dollars I was shocked
My thing is that, even though I might enjoy looking at a bag, most of the times the design isn't interesting enough for me to purchase. The only bags I find interesting are the Fendi Peak a Boo (heard it's heavy darling) and the D&G Sicily bag. The rest not so much.
Luxury, as the word connotes, is a person’s whim. Not necessity. It is immaterial if it is a good investment or not. Buyers have the discretion if it is worthy to be acquired or not. It is their money, let them use it to what takes their fancy. No one has the right to say or question the manner of spending their resources.
I don't understand people who wear luxury bags to elevate a look. Like, ma'am, we can see you wear Shein with it 😅 it doesn't make any sense! Well, it looks ridiculous let's face it. Fashion Insiders find it odd...
How did you know Im subscribed to the channels of ommpalumpas reviewing bagletts? 😂😂 I do get annoyed when they say a bag is ‘everything’ and Im ‘totally obsessed’ and then sell it not long afterwards. Such a lack of authenticity. It makes me distrust everything else they say. I recently heard the term ‘influencer activation’ for a time when a brand sends out a load of the same bag at the same time. Such a weird term but it says a lot. The ommpalumpas are just marketing robots being activated. Sounds a bit degrading
Hey Dacob! I have just watched "Inside Italy’s designer bag sweatshops | 101 East Documentary" and it shows exactly what you have been saying here for ages. This time is about Richemont, but Gucci and Dior and Marni and Jil Sander were mentioned as well. So sad what fashion has become! I am out, I can't trust any brand and I don't want to support human exploitation.
The LV Palm Springs Mini videos were the worst. I had enough when that one influencer had a meltdown in her car about the bag giving her problems. Thank God i didnt give in and buy that monstrosity
There's a mini Polene bag I really like, but it comes with a cross-body strap that is very firmly sewn and glued onto the outside of it; even though it has a top handle! I can't buy it, because I know I'd only ever carry it by that top handle and every review I've seen the youtuber also has zero interest in wearing it cross body, yet they are visibly trying to bargain with themselves on camera to be "okay with it". I finally saw someone who did a review like that decide to resell it and their reasoning was exactly as I expected; they loved it, for the same reasons I like it, but there's no way to ignore the giant thick strap just dangling all over. In their review, months earlier, they claimed that "oh, you know, just stuff the thick leather strap into the tiny mini bag and it'll, uh... It'll work. Yeah. See? Um... I can still maybe fit my wallet in it. Maybe a cardholder instead?" For the price Polene sells at, many other companies at that price point or lower offer bags where you are "allowed" to add or remove the straps and there's a very casual "take it or leave it" vibe. With luxury brands there's this weird; "you have to cope with our design choices" vibe, where in consumers feel like they have to put up with and talk themselves into tolerating things they don't actually like.
Hermés is the best among luxury because they're not dependent on a group like LVMH. They do themselves honey. Commenting as I watch btw, that's why the many comments 😂
You look amazing as usual! I love watching your videos. I bought Chanel bags around 2015 where I paid less than half the price today for CF. As for Hermes, I am not a fan of Birkin plus it is hand held, so that's not for me. Shopping at BH store for 6+ years where I got two Kelly (retourne & Sellier), and I am going to use the hell out those bags because they were damn expensive!😜
Dacob, this is off topic but i remember you talked about Chantal Gaemperle's removal (i can't find your video on it tho). Do you know why the heirs of lvmh have a feud with her as some articles say? Can you please talk more about it on your next live?
Hi Dacob! Do you have the inside scoop on when Chanel will be raising their perfume prices again? I’m trying to beat the clock and purchase all the ones I want before then. 😅 Hopefully it will be later rather than sooner, but knowing Chanel…well…
Kkk amusing myself with Dakob😅. Girl buy what you love and can afford. Don't need to break the bank for a "piece of leather" just because it's the IT Bag 😮. Preloved: in addition to the risk of being a fake, princely not even attractive. What's the point when preloved is almost the price of the boutique?
Yess. I don't see it, it's still expensive and if it's not in a giftable condition it's just not attractive to me. A few months of more saving and you have your own new authentic piece with no scratches, worn out corners and discolouration.
Dacob hates any criticism of any kind. Ok. - You should watch a video and videos of luxury handbags made by 3rd party subcontracts owned by Chinese entrepreneurs in Italy. They are worked 12 hours a day. Several different cheap looking "factories" in Italy make these lux bags in the bad part of town.... the key is several different factories made by different Chinese owners and illegal workers from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and China. If you look up "Monteblanc handbag" you can find the videos. Dior does the same thing. Dacob has many wonderful handbag. Yes, Mr. Dacob. How wonderful. But, you do the same videos over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Why not watch the videos of the actual source and then shut up!! You are so annoying.
LOL she might not have the right to vote.....where did you hear that DJT was going to take her vote away ? Please inform the 76 million Americans who voted for cheaper groceries and gas. You are so out of touch with reality.
A mix of good tips and your own opinions here. 🤍 Luxury bags are only worth it if you believe it to be since we know designer brands have extreme mark ups.
The real luxury is custom made artisan made clothing and accessories from independent designers who make it by hand! No labels no slave labor just pure quality fabrics and work. Unique pieces that no one else has. This is real luxury and it doesn't even cost what crap like Chanel costs.
I love artisan's craft. If only they'd make more interesting designs...
Suggestions on where to look for them? Or how to find them? I’m not sure if all of them advertise.
I agree
I bought an Italian no-name-brand handbag, in Italy, from the person who made it. It’s fabulous!
I agree. I find them at markets, where people come to sell their goods. I see people making their own jewelry, bags ect and they are unique.
I agree with you about the companies that authenticate bags. I used one once and by accident took a picture of my kitchen island. That was the picture on my authenticity certificate

Dacob, this is off topic but i remember you talked about Chantal Gaemperle's removal (i can't find your video on it tho). Do you know why the heirs of lvmh have a feud with her as some articles say? Can you please talk more about it on your next live?
3:16 are you serious??? 🙄
Hi Dacob! Do you have the inside scoop on when Chanel will be raising their perfume prices again? I’m trying to beat the clock and purchase all the ones I want before then. 😅 Hopefully it will be later rather than sooner, but knowing Chanel…well…
Ugh so you think the ones that are $177 now will be over $200?
I usually buy them during the Sephora sales.
@@TheFilipinaWifeLife Yes, probably.
So true.
I'm confused. Have I missed a couple of livestreams?
0:29 Hi Dacob, no live stream this week????x
Well said❤
great video my friend - greetings from belgium
10:12 also this is what most mature ladies do to younger ladies to descourage them from doing ABC. Manipulation at its best.
It is crazy.
Baboons and Oompa Loompas 😩😩
@@drplatanito My favorite part!!! 😅😅😅
Unique does not equal luxury
its true about resourcing to china....so if I like a bag I will buy a Chinese dupe for 100 bucks...
I am so glad I found your channel! Such a brilliant and authentic orator.
agree, not enough people appreciate how his command on language is SUPREME
Kkk amusing myself with Dakob😅. Girl buy what you love and can afford. Don't need to break the bank for a "piece of leather" just because it's the IT Bag 😮.
Preloved: in addition to the risk of being a fake, princely not even attractive. What's the point when preloved is almost the price of the boutique?
Yess. I don't see it, it's still expensive and if it's not in a giftable condition it's just not attractive to me. A few months of more saving and you have your own new authentic piece with no scratches, worn out corners and discolouration.
Dacob hates any criticism of any kind. Ok. - You should watch a video and videos of luxury handbags made by 3rd party subcontracts owned by Chinese entrepreneurs in Italy. They are worked 12 hours a day. Several different cheap looking "factories" in Italy make these lux bags in the bad part of town.... the key is several different factories made by different Chinese owners and illegal workers from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and China. If you look up "Monteblanc handbag" you can find the videos. Dior does the same thing. Dacob has many wonderful handbag. Yes, Mr. Dacob. How wonderful. But, you do the same videos over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Why not watch the videos of the actual source and then shut up!! You are so annoying.
Wow you are upset about those influencers 😂
Les nouveau riches sans un sou lol😂
LOL she might not have the right to vote.....where did you hear that DJT was going to take her vote away ? Please inform the 76 million Americans who voted for cheaper groceries and gas. You are so out of touch with reality.
I caught that, too. Idk where people get these ideas.
yeah that's the one part i hated, lets not be lib-brainwashed please
👏👏👏
❤
It's amusing to me that some Americans are afraid women are going to lose all of their rights, where does this come from?
yeah that's the one part i hated, lets not be lib-brainwashed please
Lol why did this pop up in my feed and wtf is wrong with you?
A mix of good tips and your own opinions here. 🤍 Luxury bags are only worth it if you believe it to be since we know designer brands have extreme mark ups.
