      I think it’s worth sometimes ‘shopping from your wardrobe’ finding something you’ve never or barely used and enjoying it as if it’s new. If you have a lot of stuff it makes sense that a lot of it sits unused 80% of the time ( we all apparently use 20% of our things 80% of the time). It can feel good to use something that feels new without spending another penny .

      I am in my 50's and was redoing my closet. I realized if I died my DD24 would have to get rid of so much crap that she would not even want. She doesn't care about designer stuff and it would be so much time and effort to get rid of stuff. I invited my nieces on both my side and hubby's and let them take what they wanted. I sent clothes to charity and even put stuff on the street outsife my house and got rid of so much stuff. I no longer go out since, I don't work anymore and when we go out I use the same purse. It was like a weight lifting off my chest. I felt free afterwards.

      Wow Valerie Lawson the collection that you had you could’ve also had sold them to make a profit to give to charity to help other young women ‘s for their education because the luxury designer bags and other luxury items that you had are now item that are in demand can be placed on different sights and even EBay that you could have done or asked Louis Vuitton do they have a collectible for those who are looking for classical designs and seller that are looking for classical pieces to purchases. You could’ve made made money off theses expenses bags I don’t have any luxury bags but I, definitely want some luxury bags and I, definitely will appreciate it and will use it.

Anyway, I didn’t Listen to the ‘ah but for 25 quid more you can get the medium’ line. And delighted I went small. It was exactly what I needed.

    You are so correct. No more luxury handbags for me, beautiful but wasteful. As a matter of fact, no more instead of bags like Coach, MK or RLL for me neither. Most Coach leather is beautiful, but TOO heavy for me. I am so with you when you say "My real life is not matching with my fantasy life". Not even going into the office still. Love Longchamp by the way ‼️ So lightweight.

    Very entertaining video my dear! I agree with several things you mentioned. My own list is:
    -Items for my fantasy life: I used to buy beautiful pieces of clothings that don’t fit me in hopes of losing some weight. Now I only buy what fits and suits my lifestyle
    -Very high heels: not only they are not comfortable, you don’t get a lot of wear out of them, especially at luxury prices. Now my heels are 8.5 cm max. I find it a good length that is comfortable and looks nice and can be worn for so many occasions.
    -Cheaper (and unbranded) items like jewelry, shoes or clothes from online places like eBay and so on. I bought a few in the past only to realize they are the fake version of a more pricey item. They look great on the website, but when you get them they are sooooooo cheap looking. If I can find (and afford) the original designer great. If not, I’ll pass.
    -Instead of: i love the look of the Kelly from Hermès. Tried to look for bags that have a similar shape, but deep down I’ll still want the Kelly. So I’m not buying any “instead of” until the time is right to buy the bag I actually want.
    -Perfumes and creams: I’m obsessed with perfumes and skincare stuff. I used a fraction of what I bought. Now I stick to my tired and true brands, and would only buy new creams or perfumes if my “unused” collection gets much smaller.

    Great video and eye-opening! I realized that I was spending my children's future and needed to stop. They are the most important thing to me and I needed to realized I would be better served saving my money for my future and my children. Why make LV, Chanel and all the rest rich? I watched a youtuber who worked for LV and she said the workers would laugh at us behind our backs, of course, for spending so much on their canvas bags.

      Thank you, it's so easy to get caught up and spend too much, don't get me wrong, I spend enough!! But my priorities are always straight and taken care of first. That's kind of why I started my finance channel, I got so many questions about budgeting for bags etc 💕

Loubis heels also because my feet need to be retrained in wearing 100mm heels again and yes i was once a sucker for nice shoes but NOT in my size 🙈 The designer hand creams are good to buy once and to use for “what fits” videos. 😅😊

    Agreed on all items. At some point it starts piling up like junk and I don’t like that. I want my pieces to be special and most of all used. I know I have too many bags, wallets, etc. and will be downsizing this summer. Also, I’m going to really focus on the style and feel that I like. For example, I have some flap bags and just realized last week that I don’t really like the flap 🤦‍♀️😭😂. I like open top bags like the Hermes Evelyn. So why do I have so many flap/twist lock bags🤦‍♀️. I’m doing the same thing with wallets. Why do I have some for the name and/or style because it’s popular but I hate the functionality? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️. So, good for you & thanks for making this video 💖

    Great video! I'm just getting into luxury, and it's so hard for me to not buy all the pretty and cool things I see. My husband has to talk some sense into me every time I see something that I want. We both agree that my next purchase won't be until around September or October, but it's so hard when you see all these pretty things right in front of you. I also have to remind myself that I don't go to red carpet events every often. Or, you know, at all.
    I totally understand about the shoes and skincare. I have flat feet, so comfort and support have always been an absolute must for me. I also have sensitive skin, so I've always had to be extra extra careful about what I wore (makeup, perfume, lotion, skincare, and even clothes).

    The point about the shoes hits home😄 Luckily, my feet are too big for most luxury shoe brands, so I can’t get tempted to spend luxury money on shoes, but still…I discovered a pair of high heel platform ankle boots in my closet today that would pass as the perfect shoe for the adult entertainment industry, plus I’d be around 1,9m tall when I wear them. No idea what I was thinking when I bought them😂

I know I will probably keep them more for resort when we travel or at most if I went to somewhere in Cork / Kerry coast for lunch.

    So I am really thinking about the “instead of” category. I just got the Chanel 19 in the new light grey color. Omg is it a gorgeous color. Now I would prefer it in the smaller size as I am petite like you (5’2” and US size xs to small) but my boutique only got the large size which I preordered). I like the larger size hand carried or shoulder carried but I really love carrying bags crossbody lately. I can carry the large crossbody in length but it’s a bit big. But that colors, and it’s just not available in the smaller size. Oh what to do! I think I’ll keep it and get a darker color or black (my fav but I have too many black bags already) in the small. HELP ME!

    • @ameliarosescloset
      @ameliarosescloset  3 года назад

      I think so long as you use it, it's ok. You can always get a small in a different colour later. The problem with Chanel is trying to repeat the colour you loved, i would keep it so long as the size worked for me in a way that I would actually use it 💕
