Hi guys! Hope you have all been well, it is so good to be back filming videos after my mini break :)
In this video, I talk about the luxury items I think we only need one of, so we can have a more curated and functional collection without redundant items.
Thank you so much for watching and have an amazing day or night :)

Agree! My luxury collection is minimal. Only have one bag for each lifestyle change (workbag, raining weather workbag, weekend bag, travel and small and large evening clutch). I’ve been a minimalist for few years and I appreciate the luxury items more.
Love your mindset! What pieces do you recommend?
@@nikkicleope7121 my workbag carry LV bandoliere 25 in mono (I work at a museum so my bag is literally sitting in a chair in my office all day, no need for me to change it everyday) for rainy work bag I carry LV vintage epi cannes bag in black, weekend is LV pochette accessoire mono, small clutch is the mini pochette accessoire mono, large clutch is LV Ronde GM vintage piece in mono. And when I travel for work and personal travel, I use the LePliage large bag and LePliage document case in black. That is my whole collection. I use the same card holder and cosmetic bags for each of my handbags. I do not have multiples. Have to admit I would like one more bag the LV Boite Chapeau Souple M, but if I get that one will take away the Cannes. My wardrobe is so minimal in size and colors (black, white and nudes) that LV mono and black bags go with everything that I own and keeps me for buying more bags.
Going minimalist has really been very liberating for me, it allows me to enjoy my smaller collection even more!
@@angelamoore5102 wow what a great collection and thanks for replying! I am trying to be minimal with my collection and it’s nice to know you enjoy LV and longchamp the most! It’s nice to know that the quality of your pieces are withstanding time so I know it’s best to invest in those fashion houses. Thanks for sharing!
Well done on such a nice minimal collection! I still need to downsize more:) xx
Great collection and it’s great u have a curated collection... for I collection I want less than 10 bags that are timeless that my daughter can have Whitney she gets older
The luxe community likes to confuse 'collecting' with 'addiction'. No ones needs 15 card holders....
🙌🏻 You voiced my thoughts. Thank you!
Tag me next time 😩😂 I can’t help it, they’re just so cuteeee
Haha so true
Lux purchases are not about need
Totally agree hun! Thanks for watching xx
I’m a minimalist due to lack of funds LOL
I've grabbed myself the same bag from bagbag123123.x.yupoo.com and I have to compliment their fakes!
They're such high quality and yet the prices are extremely low! You can have a try。You have to grab yourself one right now!!
🤣
The "forever broke" squad I am in 😄
Same lol
😅😂
I have a minimal luxury collection and I absolutely love each single item in my collection. I’m happy with what I have and being minimal makes me appreciate what I have more❤️
That’s the best feeling right? Just to have enough and not too much! Xx
I just about screamed when you said that it doesn’t make sense to have multiple card holders/wallet! I completely agree with you and after years of spending way too much money on multiple items, I finally settled on a coach wallet that frankly, is the best thing I’ve ever had. New subscriber here, thanks for the sensible, practical and intentional advice!
Videos like this really jolts you out of the zombie like consumerism that we get accustomed to. I feel so much more clear when i have a specific bag ( or two bags)for each occasions. Once my neutrals are covered and maybe one pop of colour that’s it.
Everything you said holds so true. Anything more than one of each is due to WANT not NEED.
Exactly! Thanks for watching babe xx
And nothing wrong with that if you can afford and makes you happy
@@catnip4587 Absolutely. I definitely have more than one of many items :P
Agree!!
I wish I could do what u said. But so hard, always wanting for more , not less lol
One of Each. Great video!!
1. Work handbag
2. Card holder or compact wallet
3. Key Holder so keys don't damage the bag
4. Travel bag
5. Perfumes: one summer , one winter
I would like to add:
1 evening bag
1 rain bag
In my years of lurking on RUclips, I have never commented on a single video, but this rings so true and I relate to it so much that I wanted to leave a comment. I love that you are realistic about your purchases and only buy what you will actually put to use. I really do identify with all of your luxury purchase "philosophies", and I love your videos and your collection!
I am currently curating my collection, and I have:
1. LV Lockme mini backpack for travel. I sightsee a lot during travel so I wanted something I can be hands free. Initially wanted a Palm Springs Mini, but after a while, felt that it was too loud, so I opted for a more understated model.
2. Chanel Mini Rectangular for non travel day to night bag.
3. YSL nano sac de jour on rotation with the Chanel Mini as a non travel day to night bag.
4. Furla Metropolis for errands. Bought this so it can take a beating when I'm on the go. No babying needed!
5. Bottega Veneta Card Holder. I agree with what you said about cards! Barely even bring this out anymore, except for when I need to drive (drivers license) and when I visit the clinic (medicare).
6. LV Pochette Kirigami. TBH only bought this because it was value for money (3 in one lol) but found it functional as my dinner clutch, passport & travel doc holder when travelling and card case for all the other discount cards that I barely use.
Still on the hunt for the perfect work bag and will be purchasing a key pouch soon! After this I'll focus on curating other items like accessories or higher quality clothing items. This comment turned out longer than I expected... haha
Yes I think this info rings true for many of us! When I first began purchasing luxury pieces, I had the mindset you mentioned “oh let me treat myself to an SLG” since they are more affordable than buying a whole bag. But I’ve found more happiness (and use) when I have saved longer and purchased a bag that is part of my carefully curated collection!
I also agree with you that some luxury pieces are much better as an understated piece, such as a bag for going into the office (speaking for myself). I still get the joy from carrying what I love but am not walking around with logos plastered everywhere. That’s what works for me but it’s a personal decision for everyone.
Yes! Delayed gratification is always best! No more impulse purchasing SLGs for sure😂 I am really also enjoying understated luxury items so much! Xx
This video is so serendipitous as I've been thinking of what items I want in my own luxury collection. Its refreshing seeing someone who acknowledges that more is not always better :) Hope you'll continue sharing more videos as you downsize and curate!
Omg... a new version of you. I loved this video first time I watched until the end of the video . Minimalistic is a subject that will educate your followers and give them a chance to choose something great and not many regrets. And I am happy to see you have decided to downsize your collection too. Shopping responsibly is what we all need to do.
What a wonderful video and so true! Finding items that actually work for you and replacing only as needed makes so much sense. I have found that some relatively inexpensive fill my work day needs and no worry about damaging an expensive bag during the daily commute. Choosing items that fill several purposes also makes the original purchase worthwhile.
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Love this video and completely agree!! so refreshing to see a video like this
This is such a great video to watch for someone starting out a collection! Thanks Isabelle 😊
This was such good advice! Especially on the travel bags. Thank you!
Thanks Isabelle. Great video. I have a work perfume and a 'going out' perfume and one work bag as yes indeed, it sits in my locker all day! 💕
Great video on cutting out the unnecessary items. I’m also pairing down my collection to what fits my lifestyle and what I actually use. No more buying just to buy or hoarding bags. Having too many of the same type of purse, I felt like my bags were competing with each other. It’s refreshing to watch a video like this.
I like your approach to luxury! It's quite practical and "sustainable" in some sense.
Yes agree! I only have a few of each now as I have downsized and carefully chosen which bags to keep. I only have a few perfumes too like Tom Ford and Dior that I wear occasionally since I have a baby . It may be too strong/fragrant for my baby. Take care!
Love this so much! So refreshing to hear And not fall into luxury fast fashion trend and just what we need and love 💗
Thanks hun! I’m actually quite passionate about being mindful with my luxury collection at the moment! Xx
Love this minimalist videos! I'm an aspiring minimalist. I have a ways to go but I already don't hoard perfume, work bags, or "travel" specific bags.
Great video! I’m a minimalist with everything except for perfumes. I like choosing fragrances based on how I am feeling so for me I have about 1-2 scents for each of the 4 seasons here in Canada. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
Loved this! I totally agree on the perfume. I have way too many and I do sit and think of which one to use. I also only have one luxury tote left, the Totally MM because one is enough for me.
Aw thanks for watching Melinda! I also have a lot of perfumes that have just been sitting there, so I stopped buying more😂 I am also thinking of selling my Neverfull and just keeping one tote in my collection! Thanks for the inspiration 😆 xx
Your videos convinced me to get the mini Lou, and it’s now one of my fave bags :) no regrets!!!
Thanks for being so honest and talking realistic :)
Thank you for making Melbourne's lockdown so bearable.. I am inspired by your take of being 'classy' first and foremost.
I love how practical and sensible your tips are! Doesn’t really make sense to own anything in excess especially at this time.
Thank you for doing this video! I’m so happy my collection is same as yours!
Great video... I’ve always thought about what kind of luxury bags you actually need in every category.
Agree with everything you said, especially about wanting to reward myself for working so hard but fighting to hold off
Welcome back, Isabelle! Love the minimalist luxury collection inspo!
Aw thanks hun! So happy to be back☺️ I’m trying to be really mindful with what I keep in my luxury collection! Xx
Love the minimalist perspective as we only need the essentials :)
I love your video. I love the minimalistic viewpoint that you’re telling us
Agree with what you said, especially on key holders. I really can’t be bothered to change my 6 keys out of my key holders, it’s so much work!
So true💖
I love being minimalist😊
💯 agree Isabelle. A curated collection is what works best for me as well. 😉
I have been used the key holder as you have since 2004. It worked so well and long lasting for 16 years. I just bought a new one but the same model recently to replace my old one.
Totally agree on most of these! On SLGs, I’m still guilty of buying too many because oftentimes I fall in love with a colour or a print but I don’t want to commit to a whole bag so I buy the SLG instead. I don’t really use them though, so they’re really just for looking at and collecting haha.
I’ve been waiting for a video like this. Thank you! I originally was using my Neverfull (in DE like you) and it worked lovely but I felt all eyes on me so I ended up buying an understated bag, a Senreve Maestra.
I agree, understated bag is much more tasteful as a work bag! Love Senreve quality! Xx
I love this video - I completely agree. I don't switch out of my SLG's - it drives me crazy. The only exception is I have a card case and compact zippy wallet in LV and Chanel (which I can't get rid of it, I love them soooo much), so I may switch depending on the bag I carry, but I mostly use my Chanel's. Other than that, I have 1 mini pochette, 1 key holder and 1 work bag. And I prefer it this way as I feel I spent my money well because the items are getting used. I hate having nice things on a shelf not being used. So I use and enjoy my luxury pieces. As for perfume, I agree - I have a few, but I end up always wearing the same 2. In the summer: LV's Attrape-Rêves and the rest of the year, my scent from many many years, Coco Mademoiselle eau de parfum. The others pretty much sit on my vanity sadly. They smell so nice, but I don't reach for them as I really have my 2 favorites. Thanks so much for sharing these tips! xx
Thanks for sharing this Isabelle! These tips definitely help curate a minimal collection. You inspired me to buy the YSL camera bag when you had it gold. I still love mine 🥰
Aw thanks for watching hun! Love my YSL camera bag too hehe xx
Really love the idea and the message of this video! Explained very well too! Maybe I need to rewatch this everytime I have the urge to buy something that I don't really need, as a kindly reminder. 😂
I am a beginner in purchasing luxury items, this vid helps me to streamline what to get without rushing into things blindly.
Hi Isabelle! Thank you for the video. I too prefer a curated wardrobe only with things I "need". =)
I have the Saint Laurent Sac De Jour Large in Crocodile Embossed Leather as my work bag. Before I got this bag, I had quite a variety of work bags from the brands Zara and Oroton. I do love using those bags too but they would break after a few years. So far I havent bought more bags after my Saint Laurent.
I really felt it when you said you recommend using an understated designer to work because we spend so much time at work and its nice to enjoy fashion during work days. I am blessed to be able to dress quite preppy for work. I usually wear suits.
Great content! The "grandma-ness" of rose perfume is what I absolutely love about it. My grandmother was the most beautiful and stylish woman I've ever met. I copy her in whatever ways I can, and rose perfume is my signature because of her. (She also loved Chanel No 5 but that is just way too overpowering for me)
Good point! I totally agree with you except perfumes. Just because I haven’t found the one i like the most! There are so many beautiful perfumes around haha
Haha as long as you use all the perfumes, it’s worth it😂 xx
This is a very helpful video. Thank you so much! I’ve recently come into some money and am planning on buying some luxury bags. The neverfull monogram is on my list. Now I know it’s a great work bag! I also have my eye on the alma bb and speedy 25 (both damier). I think the alma can be a nice day to night bag as well. I also like the ysl college bag. Oh the choices! I might buy them all 🙈❤️
I’ve never related more to a video than this. I love the minimalist lifestyle but still want luxurious items. I recently sold 5 luxury bags- 3 LV, 1 Chanel and 1 Dior in order to welcome 2 new Chanel iridescent pieces. In total, I have 4 bags now and I feel so much more at peace. I also have a couple signature scents- 1 warmer scent and 1 lighter scent. Thank you for this video!
So good to see you! I love your channel :)
Love your positive vibe💕💕
Love this video, it's good to streamline collections and leave that brainpower for other things! I haven't tried the Sables LV perfume, can't wait to check it out, I love Oud scents.
Exactly what I mean! Yes love oud too😍 thanks for watching Gina xx
I’m trying to be a minimalist, but there’s so many cute bags! I totally agree with you about the LV perfumes. They last all day!
Haha temptation is everywhere 😂 thanks for watching Vanessa! Xx
You are back! 😘 Thanks for another very thoughtful video. 😊
Aw thanks hun! I am happy to be back😍 xx
I loved this video, thank you for sharing! I agree with everything you said. I don't own anything high-end luxurious yet, but I have been eyeing some stuff at YSL and if I do go that route, it will be very minimal and purposeful, as you suggest... I like being a minimalist but at the same time I do enjoy nice things and I am willing to invest in a few of them. And when you were talking about a small travel bag, I thought of that black Lou Lou bag even before you pulled it out :) it's beautiful. Nice picks all of your things
Good to see you back we missed you .
Love this video! I must add watch into the list too! I think 1 or 2 nice watches are enough in one’s collection :)
I agree with you on wallets. I haven’t used one in years. They are bulky and take up too much room. I use a card holder and a little change purse for bills, coins, coupons and earphones. I have a larger catch all for my totes. Thanks all the great advice in this video.
That rose lv perfume is soooooo good, love it
Thank you for this video! I agree with everything you said.
Im exactly like you on perfume. And i totally understand with the bag concept
Definitely true about perfume! I have so many 🙈 I even wanted to do a perfume collection video. Definitely not buying more until I use the ones I have!
It builds up so quick right? Yes gotta use up all we have first! Xx
The *yutulux* canvas tote bag actually reminds me of Hermes Garden Party, too. Thanks for making this video on suggesting more budget friendly alternatives. Love it!
Love your recommendation especially the perfumes
Thanks for the advice ☺️ will keep them in mind 😉
That *yutulux* bag is definitely hitting different…absolutely gorgeous!❤Great video!
Great video ! You’re right about everything x
Love this video, Isabelle!!
Words of wisdom 👍🏽 Love your channel 🥰
Aw thanks hun xx
Really liked this video! Perhaps more categories could be covered in other videos - minimalist belts, accessories, weekend bags etc.?
Love the luxury minimalist thing!
I am fairly minimal with my collection. The only points on which we are different are firstly travel bags. I have two handbags that I take for travel but not usually on the same trip. If I am going on a more casual beach holiday I will take a lighter coloured, more casual bag, but if I am going to a city that is dressier I take a more structured bag instead. As well as a day handbag I take a Longchamp La Pliage tote on the plane with my handbag and all the other stuff one has to take on planes inside it. I won’t put a handbag under the seat of a plane unprotected, it’s a good way to destroy them very quickly. And I take a nice but inexpensive clutch for dinner. Oroton makes some really good ones for this.
Secondly, I won’t be getting rid of my two wallets any time soon. Once covid is over I think cash will be around for quite a while yet. There is the time when the eftpos machine breaks down and cash is the only option, then when you are out to eat and splitting the bill is not allowed and everybody has to add to a pile of cash on the table to pay for their portion.
This is a really nice video. I have to do my own version! Thanks for this. Very inspiring and timely. 😊
Yes!! I live by this! I don’t need multiple bags of the same kind 😅
GREAT video! I love your streamlining tips.
Came across this video and I watched *yutulu* OMG your wardrobe is every woman’s dream! Love your voice and the way you speak
Great advice you just saved me alot of money to put towards a ysl bag
Totally agree with you - I have the same philosophy. I take it one step further and really only purchase things that have more than one use with the exception of a small wallet. My work bag is also my carry-on bag and my gym bag, my travel bag is also my evening bag. One black/silver, one brown/gold.
In the states, I don't think wallets are going anywhere unfortunately. Most states, you still have to carry a physical drivers license with you to drive, and people have been reticent to go to contactless payments. Still mostly no cash, but people love their cards for some reason. I don't get it.
Great video!! Thanks for your advice
I’ve been enjoying your videos more and more recently, but I’m completely sold with this one! Very very solid points especially the key holder one! I shall replay your voice in my head when I find myself checking out preloved Chanel key holders when I already own one from LV. 😂
Aw thank you so much for enjoying my videos hun, it means so much to me😍 yeh we don’t need to spend more on any more key holders😂 xx
Thanks for the video!! I just started my luxury interest 3 months ago and I have already bought multiple things and some I already regret! I don't want to sell them yet, maybe after the next YSL or LV price increase. Thanks again x
Depends of the country really. In Finland, cards are the most popular payment method but phone apps are not very common and the transfer towards using them has been relatively slow. But nevertheless you are right; there is no need to have 10 card holders like many have. That just adds up! I have one Calvi card holder from Hermes and I am planning to get another one just to switch it up a bit, but that it is. No more than two is necessary.
And here I am contemplating of getting two of each of Speedy, Neverfull and Noe. 💭 🤔
I love this blog so much. It is so helpful to me.
I agree with you on LV perfumes! They smell sooooo good i bought my first one 2 birthdays ago as a gift to myself; hence, my first lux product. I got atrape revés but i am SO in love with Rose de Vents. I wish I knew what my signature scent is.. I’m still figuring that out. I’m now hooked on Twilly by Hermès, so who knows anymore lol
Love your channel, Isabelle
Hi Isabelle, I'm a new subscriber. Thanks so much for this post. I'm selling some of my card holders. I actually bought this one. :) I love it and my husband even complimented that he liked it too. Trying to be a little more minimal as well.
One of my favorite vlog.
Hi Isabella like those bags the blue one the big bag looks gorgeous like the details of this gorgeous bag. Love this blouse you are wearing looks gorgeous on you lovely color. Have a lovely week love XO. 💖😊
I agree so true 👏🏼
Great video! For travelling I'd personally need something far bigger, to fit water and snacks in. And I wouldn't go for a designer option in this case anyway (for practicality and safety reasons). I'd go for a bigger no-name shoulder bag or backpack. Agree in terms of the cardholder, not more than one needed.
I agree with your point of view about collecting too many things of the same type.
Great video. ❤️
In big on perfumes though Iso I can’t stick to just two. Lol I lm the opposite, I actually enjoy picking out the scent to complete my wardrobe and mood for that day. It’s part of my outfit. However I have a 1 out, 1 in rule with fragrance. This helps me stay contained and use what I have before I add.
Great point! I agree, if you actually use all the perfumes or anything else, definitely worth having more😊 thanks for watching hun xx
Nice! Good to know to start a new collection
I did realise that I actually only need one cardholder. Thinking of downsizing mine. But I the LV Mon Monogram is so beautiful...
Thank you for this video. I have 5 perfumes, two for summer and three for winter. I was wondering if you could talk more about how long perfumes last. I have inherited some from my late mother's and when I walk past her things I can detect her scent from the perfume bottles. I don't use her scents, but it is nice to "smell" her essence. This makes me wonder how long I should keep my own perfumes. About the work bag, I use to purchase a good quality hand bag and use it for the season, I would store it in a drawer in my desk. But I would use it so much, that by the end of the season it was pretty much beaten up. I end up donating it or storing it away at the end of the season in case I needed to use it the next year. But I rarely do look for it again. I do use a tote for work to carry my computer, lunch, tea and whatever I might need for work. Now that I am mostly home, I use them when I do local errands/shopping, so I can just throw in a purchase from CVS or other small purchase. I rarely take my good designer bags out because they are made of soft lambskin and I do not want to ruin them, especially in a New England snow storm. I use to buy key cases, this video made me wonder why I do not do that anymore. Lately, I just throw my keys in a pocket on the outside of my bag or just inside, because I have so many small plastic cards on the key chain that I have to take out all the time when I shop/go to the gym, etc (not credit cards). I should probably keep the two separate and get myself a key case again.
I have only one perfume that I use (Hypnotic Poison by Dior), I use it since many years, and I don't need any more clothes and shoes, I have enough beautiful dresses, bodysuits and skirts (trousers I don't wear, flats neither).
What I love to have, is a variety of SLGs, especially wallets and Hermès Bastias; I enjoy switching in and out of them, the different styles and colours make me happy (and in Germany, many of us are loving their cash 😉; many of us (me included, I mentioned it before somewhere) don't have a credit card, but only EC cards, and I haven't seen that many people who use things like Google Pay or Apple Pay).
Loved the video 🤗💞!
So true about not needing to buy more clothes! Over the years, we end up having enough nice clothes that suit us so don’t need to buy much more. That’s so interesting how it is so different between countries, in Australia, tap and go pay has been popular for a while now and most ppl are using their phones or even smart watches to pay!
As for slg’s, as long as you use them all, they are worth it in your collection💕 thanks for watching hun xx
Agree with the cardholder, I only have one. The key holder for me, haven’t seen the need. Because if I have an organizer in my bag. I just put it in one of the pockets. When it comes to totes/work bags. I disagree. Personally if they are lux I need more than one. Need to rotate so that I don’t completely ruin them. However if it’s mid range like Kate spade I say you only need one. Before I started taking lux to work I used my Kate spade tote daily for 3yrs and it’s still kicking. The handles are fraying. But regardless still going. Perfumes I agree. Only have 4 and that’s to cover each season. Only buy when I run out.
Very true Isabelle!! 👍 I rather have a small collection of bags i adore than 50 bags that each do pretty much the same thing. I sold so many bags because i dont need 10 crossbody bags. I only need and want one i love and use it for years and years. Having a minimalist collection is so peaceful 🤣👍 Also, i dont rotate bags much. I usually end up using the same bags over and over. I dont need many options 😂
I love your natural hair color!
