Good morning! ☕️ I ordered my mini anchor after seeing your first video and just got a shipping notification that my bag is coming from China. I know a lot of products are made in China, I just didn’t expect that I would be ordering directly from China. I called their customer service and they said that they are online only. I feel it’s a bit misleading to call themselves an NYC brand. Based on CB Insights and global media, OLEADA is a China based company, I think they should be transparent about that like Songmont and not try to make ppl believe they are a NYC based brand. That said, I like their corporate ethos of upcycling deadstock and plastic bottles, just hope they do it ethically and sustainably.
also the info on their leather is very confusing. they call it recycled leather from the food industry, then rescraped leather and also replated leather. what is it?^^ hides from the food industry don't make recycled leather and then they have a recycling program for old handbags, but nowhere explain how those materials are worked into their new handbags
Wow, how misleading 😞 I agree! I prefer it when I buy slow fashion: key investment pieces that I wish and expect to last (forever). Then, I would like my bags made in France, Italy, the UK or New York. Again, this is my personal preference 🙏🏻
tanner leatherstein just did a review on this bag. was very helpful in explaining recycled leather and what it means. I have the pistachio bag and I love it. It fits so much. I am not a back pack wearer and I wear it top handle and cross body.

Hi Michelle, I had the same pain, and a friend from work noted that I might have sciatica. Went to my chiropractor and she confirmed that I do, and recommended I see an acupuncturist. BEST DECISION EVER!!! It took 5 months worth of weekly sessions but I’m pain free now. I still have to be extra mindful of that body area and stretch it everyday. But I’ve been pain free since then. I am not a doctor, and I know this is unsolicited advice so take it with a grain of salt. But I do hope this helps you eventually. Let us know in your vlogs how it goes.
I found that some platforms focus on using environmentally friendly materials to make high-quality imitation bags. Choosing replicas can reduce the demand for luxury raw materials and support environmental protection to a certain extent. *condup* not only satisfies the pursuit of fashion, but also reduces the burden on the earth.
Hi Michelle. Personal trainers don't really know what to do about injuries. I had a personal trainer once that would force me to do squats when I told him my chiropractor said I can't do any squats or anything that compresses my spine. Especially the lower back. The personal trainer would make me do squats and when my lower back started to hurt he would help me stretch it out and then we would go right back into the squats to finish the sets. They are mainly focused on finishing sets. I had to get x-rays from my chiropractor to show him that my L5 disc in my spine is degenerating which is why I cannot compress my spine. Mind you I told this personal trainer this before I hired him. When he saw the x-rays he paid more attention to how my body was positioned while doing squats and thats when he saw that I shouldn't be doing them. Let's just say I never rehired that guy as a personal trainer. When a client complains of having pain the only thing personal trainers do is tell their client to stretch it out and ice it. What they should be telling you is to go to the doctor. If your felling pain all the way down to your legs then you might have some sort of nerve damage. If I were you I would hold off on doing any lower body work out, see a doctor and focus on upper body workouts just to be safe.
Seeing you brings such joy to my day Michele! I love the bags you were gifted especially the pistachio color. It’s gorgeous on you. Love to you and yours!
Michele I totally feel you with the aches and pains of Body. I'm now 64 and have been through my bout of injuries. Not anything that has floored me but along the lines of what you are talking about. It takes a lot of patience and work to get through them. But I'm a true believer that it all happens for a reason. People and you might shutter but in my 64 years I have come to that right just conclusion. Every injury is a teacher to the body to strengthen and the body will heal. My frozen shoulder, groin pull, pulled muscles, tingling hip ,achilles tendon blah blah blah all tell me a story of healing. I meditate , use a Gua Sha stone, essential oils, heat , ice, ...EAT PRAY LOVE. Oh yay and do not discount Menopause, hormone fluctuation, decrease estrogen and all. You are soooo not alone. With love, Madelyn
Nothing beats a beautiful vlog! Great items Michele! ❤ The shopping trips are so much fun & please never change the music on that! So sorry about your knee! You’re right, everything takes longer to heal..
The Oleada bag is beautiful when I see it on others. Love the color, but someone mentioned it reminds them of a lunchbox & now I can’t unsee it that way. 😩
They are really nice and thought out for wearing and using different ways. That’s a smart idea and a smart buy for me who needs to watch what I buy !! How fun
I'm so jiving with this vlog!!!! (had a obsession wanting to do unassisted pull up, took me over 6 months to do a proper one. but now i can do 6-8. you can do it too!!! Also, started running with On shoes 3 times a week, about 5k each time, haha). also, i pulled something while doing a deadlift, and took 6 months to heal, but I did workout with proper instruction from my chiro & trainer. now the pain is almost all gone, but i'm much more aware of my movement to avoid pain in the future. )
Michelle - It sounds like you might be experiencing sciatica. I have it and I crawl on the floor like a baby or I roll my butt muscle on a tennis ball. Both of those things help. I just left my Chiropractor’s office and I feel like a million bucks! I had my second back surgery last December and the surgery helped but, the Chiropractor is amazing. I hope you get relief soon! Your new bags are gorgeous.
The anchor bag looks like a really great size and nice that it's convertible to be a backpack. Enjoyed your vlog and especially your commentary, especially when you were sharing how it worked out well that you had forgotten that had your husband's car instead of your own.
Wonderful vlog Michele! The bags are gorgeous! I hope your leg heals quickly and you get some relief. You are so right about recovery time being longer as we age. I had a pretty bad ankle injury almost 3 years ago and I've had to accept that it will probably never be 100%. Have a great Sunday!😊❤❤
Hi Michele 🙋🏻♀️! I’m wayyyy behind on watching my saved videos (obviously!) but I really enjoyed this one!! Hope your injury is improving & wanted you to know I’m thinking of you as Father’s Day is tomorrow♥️🤗
Hi Michele, I'm fairly certain the border on your first, linen pillow at Target has a Flange border which I really liked----it's a more formal style than your 2nd knife edge pillow, but I see what you mean about it being a bit floppy. Your videos are always so fun, it's great shopping with you!!!! Happy Spring, Beautiful Clouds!!!! 🌱🌳🌞☁️🌤️🥰♥️❣️
If you can't afford designer bags and feel a certain way about expensive designer bags, then don't watch this video. Like do you read a video title before clicking on it? The title makes it clear that the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful and although I can't afford these bags yet, I know one day I will. I wanted to know which designer bag was truly worth my hard-earned money and one that I would get the most out of. That being said, if you're reading this, thank you for sharing this video with us and please make more videos like this. Maybe *condup* is your next choice?
I ended up buying the Mini Anchor bag as well... I like it, but my main problem is that you really have to fully zip it in order to secure things, and it's not easy to zip without two hands. My other crossbodies I can reach into and not have to fiddle with securing them. I actually had some things fall out of the Mini Anchor when it wasn't zipped. I really like it but wish the opening were different... 🤷... but this pistachio color is GORGEOUS. Also, mine didn't come in the tote! 😥
Hi Michele, do not ignore a knee injury, even if you think it’s from an old injury. At least go and see a physiotherapist, because the transferred pain sounds like other connected muscles are assisting and are becoming inflamed. I also have high arches, and my feet pronate when I run, which of course causes shin splints, knee and hip pain for me if I don’t wear good ant-pronation sneakers. I was looking carefully when you were showing us the sneakers and I would have your trainer check that for you, as that can impact the steadiness of your entire leg when weight is applied to the leg if the foot is slightly destabilised and rolling inwards (pronating), resulting in the knee having to do the work of the foot as well to stabilise the leg. Hope the shopping went well, have a great week ❤
it sounds like sciatica ... I had it for the first time this year and went to a physical therapist and he suggested stretches and did acupuncture which worked so well .... also took Advil...
I hurt my back ages ago bending over while wearing high heels. Went to a chiropractor who said I shouldn’t wear such high heels (3”). I stopped wearing them and my back has thanked me lol. Then I hurt my right knee while skating. Then I fell off a horse at the canter (“went out the barn door” as they say) and got a huge bruise deep in my right buttock. My right hip and knee bother me but I don’t let it stop me since I don’t want to freeze up as I age (I’m 63). I’m determined to stay fit and mobile! I hope your injury gets better Michele! I love the Oleada pistachio bag, so cute!❤
Good morning! Great chat love the bags and the pillows on the couch. I like the first on sneakers you tried on they look more comfortable and less cumbersome.
For your new sneakers, those are suppppper cute just make sure to use those for only running and not lifting weights. When lifting weights you want to make sure your feet are flat to the ground.
Hi Michele! I’m not sure if you’ll see my comment since I’m here few days later and catching up with what I’ve missed. So you knee pain - many people are saying it could be sciatica but I want to say it could be torn meniscus - I had it on my both knees and had surgeries on them both, at a different time, but I’m just too familiar with the pain and how it starts, that’s why what I’m suspecting. If it’s a small tear it can heal by itself with some PT, and in some cases you need a surgery. The surgery is not that bad, I had my last one in January and I recovered remarkably fast. I truly hope you don’t need it though, but in any case I would address the issue with the doctor. Best of luck to you! ❤️
Hi Michelle, I am 57 (was a marathon runner till 2016 too) I had also exact same pains in my lower back, knee areas, feet etc. I was also frustrated visited Orthopedic etc… But I found the reason, it is menopause problems related to very decreased Östrogen level. That is something lots of doctors don’t know.. The solution maybe something with hormones.. You can try into this direction. Hope it helps.
Hmm. I posted a comment and it disappeared! Any, love the Hobo especially. I too have a (hip) issue that I may have started years ago, running and then aggravated when I fell backward over our dog two years ago. I like turmeric-boswellia and glucosamin chondroitin. OK, I am going to keep this short and see if it sticks!
Love the pistachio colored Oleada bag. I can related to your knee and leg pain. As a former runner, I did some damage to my knee over the years. I’d be interested to hear what you think of the ON sneakers.
Your video inspired me to buy this bag (and a toiletry pouch/clutch bag-heart shaped). She has such great taste and reviews. The heart bag is SO nice! The handbag...not so much. Going right back! It has a very strong plastic smell. The material feel very plastic-PVC like. Lining not that great-a cloth kind that is a bit loose. Company was easy to work with and quick response for return. If the handbag had the leather of the heart pouch I would not be returning it!
Dying for the bag !!❤ the color & versatility! Ooh ❤the anchor bag!! I think I’m loving your jeans Michelle I’m with you.. here in Katy, Tx.. I don’t leave the house on wknds unless it’s an emergency. I am not one for crowds period. Lol
Check in with your sports doctor. Foot problems cause ankle and knee problems. The Cloud Monster with rocker type soles is what sports doctor suggested to me to stabilize ankles when walking distances.
Definitely sciatica and quite possibly an unstable si joint. We start falling apart midlife I swear😂..ugh… Look in to getting prolotherapy. I swear by it! Best thing I’ve ever done. ❤
Hi everyone! Thanks for your support! Just to clarify, we have two shipping locations: one in New Jersey and another in Hong Kong. This setup helps us serve our global customers better. Due to high demand, our Anchor Collection may temporarily sell out at our New Jersey warehouse, prompting us to fulfill orders from our Hong Kong center to expedite delivery. Thanks for your understanding! 😊🌎
Your injury could be your IT band. It’s either weak or just underdeveloped. Have your trainer show you some IT band stretches after you’re healed up. I totally understand about the aging process and recovering from injuries and sickness. I have been dealing with shoulder and knee issues for about two years. I’m resistant to surgery, so PT has been my friend. Be kind to yourself and listen to your body. ❤
Sounds like you need to make Orthopedic appointment for your knee, back before your cruise. We cruise a couple of times a year , other than a couple formal nights on ship, most everyone dresses casually. 'try not to overpack, you won't need what you might think you do. Thanks for the video
Ooh hey if you get tired of the ‘clown car’ paper product haul, I can highly recommend “Who Gives A Crap.” Plastic-free packaging on toilet paper and paper towels delivered to your door via subscription! We signed up before the pandemic and haven’t looked back since. No more hauling, and you never have to worry about running out! Love them. (Not an ad, just a fan.)
I dont want to play doctor...but my leg pain and weakness were related to a spine problem. I had surgery last year...maybe talk to your doctor...? I hear you about the age thing. I am 65 and hitting the gym pretty hard...it takes so much now to build muscle and strength...but, we have to keep at it!
Hi Michele. I know this is a long shot but in one of your vlogs you talked about a black shoulder bag that I want to get but cannot remember the brand. I thought it was Oryany but I’m not sure. Any chance you know what bag I’m talking about? If it helps the shape of it was like a Coach Swing Zip. Also if you have no idea what I’m talking about no problem, I understand. Love your vlogs ❤❤❤
When I viewed your workout video my first thought was: "wow, that woman has a really strong back and knees." There's usually a thin line between being fit and being injured. Overuse is usually the culprit.
Yikes Michelle yeah a sharp pain on an injury imo needs checked out if the pain hasn’t eased Sounds a little like sciatica .. yep You may have injured the lower back yet the pain ends up in your knee. Yes extremely frustrating .. welcome to our 50’s lol It’s like living in a body we don’t recognize
Acupuncture works miracles on body pains. I was learning to shuffle dance on bare feet (stupidly) n ended up with an inflamed Achilles tendon on my right leg. Went to my Chinese physician cum acupuncturist n it helped so much in bringing down the inflammation. So grateful for my acupuncturist!
So sorry to hear you are injured, it's a bummer for sure! But it's your body telling you to stop and take notice that what you are doing is no longer working for you. Now is the time to get advice from qualified practitioners to access the injury and give appropriate protocol for healing. There is no empirical evidence to suggest an aging body is falling apart and there is nothing you can do about it. The reverse is true, exercise increases longevity. Its a journey to live a healthy life for as long as you can, never give up!
Why did you buy paper towels and bath tissue from Target when you were going to Costco? Costco gives you more product for the same price or a little bit more. Much better value.
Hi Michele. I read my comment again and I'm sorry. I feel like it came off as a bit aggressive. Really enjoy your vlogs and this was no exception! The bags are beautiful 😍. I have a bad knee so I can relate. Awful. Hope you feel better soon!
Your knee issue sounds very familiar. One word: sciatica. Problem is in your back and butt, not in your knees. Got rid of it with physiotherapy and getting my back and my weak and tight glutes and leg muscels in order.
Sounds like sciatica. It changes all the time. Butt to knee to ankle back to the back of the knee, etc. Need to rest it or it can get worse. It’s inflamed.
Please let us know, about how your new sneakers works for you as you use them. Nice pillows!! that just do not look good in your beut sofa, I Think. I hope you find a good, serious well-trained acupuncturist and asian medicine practitioner as well. Believe that this is healed, maybe, just maybe age does not affect the healing.
Good morning! ☕️ I ordered my mini anchor after seeing your first video and just got a shipping notification that my bag is coming from China. I know a lot of products are made in China, I just didn’t expect that I would be ordering directly from China. I called their customer service and they said that they are online only.

Based on CB Insights and global media, OLEADA is a China based company, I think they should be transparent about that like Songmont and not try to make ppl believe they are a NYC based brand.
That said, I like their corporate ethos of upcycling deadstock and plastic bottles, just hope they do it ethically and sustainably.

I found that some platforms focus on using environmentally friendly materials to make high-quality imitation bags.

Check in with your sports doctor. Foot problems cause ankle and knee problems. The Cloud Monster with rocker type soles is what sports doctor suggested to me to stabilize ankles when walking distances.
“…at that age where things just take longer” - yeah, I can definitely commiserate with that *sigh*
Definitely sciatica and quite possibly an unstable si joint. We start falling apart midlife I swear😂..ugh… Look in to getting prolotherapy. I swear by it! Best thing I’ve ever done. ❤
Hi everyone! Thanks for your support! Just to clarify, we have two shipping locations: one in New Jersey and another in Hong Kong. This setup helps us serve our global customers better. Due to high demand, our Anchor Collection may temporarily sell out at our New Jersey warehouse, prompting us to fulfill orders from our Hong Kong center to expedite delivery. Thanks for your understanding! 😊🌎
Have fun cruise wear shopping my lady. ❤️😘😘😘Sandy
Hello, Michelle. What's the app you use to track HRV and all other stuff?
I use my Sleep Number app which is attached to my bed.
OMG I want these bags! ♥️♥️♥️
Love those bags!!
I really like the N/S version of your bag. So disappointed it doesn't come in black or navy. It would be th perfect work bag.
You may want to have your knee checked out. I experienced similar symptoms and it turned out that my ACL was tearing slowly
Your injury could be your IT band. It’s either weak or just underdeveloped. Have your trainer show you some IT band stretches after you’re healed up. I totally understand about the aging process and recovering from injuries and sickness. I have been dealing with shoulder and knee issues for about two years. I’m resistant to surgery, so PT has been my friend. Be kind to yourself and listen to your body. ❤
Sounds like you need to make Orthopedic appointment for your knee, back before your cruise. We cruise a couple of times a year , other than a couple formal nights on ship, most everyone dresses casually. 'try not to overpack, you won't need what you might think you do. Thanks for the video
Dang it Michele - now I can’t decide on which one I want! 😂
Michele you look great!
Ooh hey if you get tired of the ‘clown car’ paper product haul, I can highly recommend “Who Gives A Crap.” Plastic-free packaging on toilet paper and paper towels delivered to your door via subscription! We signed up before the pandemic and haven’t looked back since. No more hauling, and you never have to worry about running out! Love them. (Not an ad, just a fan.)
I dont want to play doctor...but my leg pain and weakness were related to a spine problem. I had surgery last year...maybe talk to your doctor...? I hear you about the age thing. I am 65 and hitting the gym pretty hard...it takes so much now to build muscle and strength...but, we have to keep at it!
I purchased the mini Oleada bag in pistachio a couple months ago. LOVE IT!! So sorry you’re heading to your cruise soon with an injury
Nice spring bags 🎒 👜👛🛍👝
i didn't get a tote with my handbag order. wow
😢
Hi Michele. I know this is a long shot but in one of your vlogs you talked about a black shoulder bag that I want to get but cannot remember the brand. I thought it was Oryany but I’m not sure. Any chance you know what bag I’m talking about? If it helps the shape of it was like a Coach Swing Zip. Also if you have no idea what I’m talking about no problem, I understand. Love your vlogs ❤❤❤
I think maybe Madewell that I showed back around Mishmas?
@@TheMicheleWang thank you very much for getting back. I appreciate it ❤️
I love your necklace. May I ask where did you buy it?
Sure I have details in the description box.
Hi, very nice video! Thanks ….
The pillows are good😊
This is the second video I saw similar bags, the rise of these made in China pretend to be a USA brand copycats. 😂😂
When I viewed your workout video my first thought was: "wow, that woman has a really strong back and knees." There's usually a thin line between being fit and being injured. Overuse is usually the culprit.
I just find it hilarious everyone is copying Loro Piana’s extra pocket 😂
Oleada, Bottega 😂
love it!!
With Saturn!
I love those towels😂
Yikes Michelle yeah a sharp pain on an injury imo needs checked out if the pain hasn’t eased
Sounds a little like sciatica .. yep
You may have injured the lower back yet the pain ends up in your knee.
Yes extremely frustrating .. welcome to our 50’s lol
It’s like living in a body we don’t recognize
Hi!! Love ur content!! ❤❤
Early crowd I love you michele aaaaah❤😂
🥰 Thank you!
I do hope you go to the doctor as a precaution. Maybe need a wrap to help support your knee or thigh. Hope it gets better for you.
Acupuncture works miracles on body pains. I was learning to shuffle dance on bare feet (stupidly) n ended up with an inflamed Achilles tendon on my right leg. Went to my Chinese physician cum acupuncturist n it helped so much in bringing down the inflammation. So grateful for my acupuncturist!
Hey Michele 💜💜💖
It might be your sciatica. Feel better.❤
So sorry to hear you are injured, it's a bummer for sure! But it's your body telling you to stop and take notice that what you are doing is no longer working for you.
Now is the time to get advice from qualified practitioners to access the injury and give appropriate protocol for healing.
There is no empirical evidence to suggest an aging body is falling apart and there is nothing you can do about it. The reverse is true, exercise increases longevity. Its a journey to live a healthy life for as long as you can, never give up!
❤ pillows are too big, I like them
Happy day
Maybe sciatica?
It sounds like sciatica Michelle
Why did you buy paper towels and bath tissue from Target when you were going to Costco? Costco gives you more product for the same price or a little bit more. Much better value.
I don't like the Kirkland brand paper products.
Hi Michele. I read my comment again and I'm sorry. I feel like it came off as a bit aggressive. Really enjoy your vlogs and this was no exception! The bags are beautiful 😍. I have a bad knee so I can relate. Awful. Hope you feel better soon!
@@TheMicheleWang Fair enough 😊. I'm sorry if my comment was a bit aggressive and short. Look forward to the next vlog!
Your knee issue sounds very familiar. One word: sciatica.
Problem is in your back and butt, not in your knees.
Got rid of it with physiotherapy and getting my back and my weak and tight glutes and leg muscels in order.
I think 🤔 you look great Michele 👍 No matter what yes I did noticed you lost some muscle mass and weight 😉 but do what can
Sounds like sciatica. It changes all the time. Butt to knee to ankle back to the back of the knee, etc. Need to rest it or it can get worse. It’s inflamed.
Your uncomfortableness is validating Michelle
Sounds like sciatica
You need to cut down on your training for the moment to let your body recover If it is sciatica reflexology can help
Please let us know, about how your new sneakers works for you as you use them. Nice pillows!! that just do not look good in your beut sofa, I Think. I hope you find a good, serious well-trained acupuncturist and asian medicine practitioner as well. Believe that this is healed, maybe, just maybe age does not affect the healing.
sounds like you have sciatica!
I used to like “stuff”…but a lot of it by RUclipsrs.
Michele would NEVER wear these bags, it ‘ s all about the money.
Incorrect.
