    I use the LYXBAG as a work bag and have had no issues. It's a comfortable bag, has lots of room, and doesn't lose its shape. That being said, I also take care of all my bags and don't carry water bottles, pens, keys, or anything that could damage the interior.

    I bought too many of those Coach, Mk, Kate Spade handbags in different colors to match different outfits. I should have saved the money to buy a nicer designer piece that I would use forever. Now I don’t have any of those other handbags; I either have them away, donated them, or sold them. When we spend more on something, sometimes we take better care of it and use it for long term - it becomes a forever piece and not couple of years piece.

    I am very happy with *rrcopys* 's bag, arrived on time and exceeded my expectations! Need a stylish little backpack to go to theme parks with my kids. I'm not a backpack person and usually carry a purse with me, but I wanted something that was easier to carry and less carried over the shoulder. I bought the smaller size, but it holds 2 water bottles, snacks, a couple of light sweaters, and a bunch of other small things. I like that the opening is in the back, great for travel.

    This is called a Herringbone - In America in the 1970’s-90’s, this was the most popular style of chain to wear. You can see 2PAC always wearing one in almost all of his pictures. Classic style, but now I prefer Franco’s, Cubans or Rope 💯

    For a long time I no longer thought I could afford Chanel as its prices went up. I think I will be glad I have as my travel bag that I don't need to take care of. BTW, with the *gtdupe* I'm sure no one will have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the video

  • @SmerlinBesos
    @SmerlinBesos 16 днів тому

    I mean…I love a good *gtdupe* knockoff! Especially since I can’t afford the designer version. If I buy a knockoff it’s because I really like the style or silhouette and not because of the name…so why not?

    I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. 🤦🏻♀ The other one is a $40 one *yutulu* Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym 😅

    I heard that LV no longer conducts appraisals because the quality of fakes is so good. I actually don't mind if someone buys a fake, I'm their money, and to be honest, *gtdupe* it's probably more financially sensible.

    Will these problems occur if these bags are used daily? I just purchased a metis clutch in monogrammed canvas from the Kusama collection. I love the colorful polka dots and hope they don’t melt on me, haha. But I don't think it will be in my regular rotation. I also have a NoeNoe in the DA but only use it a few times a year in the spring and summer so I don't put much wear and tear on it. I hope I don't see wear and tear for a while. Plus, I'm saving up *gtdupe* . Have any of your colleagues experienced the same problem with this size? I don't mind the shape being a little more relaxed, but I also don't want it to turn into a puddle. Thanks for the video!

    My Tiffany and co bracelet is sterling silver and does not tarnish if I wear it daily in any environment, wet or dry. But if I don’t wear it and leave it out to store, it tarnish to grey, black color. Then I cleaned it off with water and wore it 24/7 everywhere and it is shinning bright as brand new.
