In today’s video I’m roasting some of the most popular, trendy luxury handbags that I personally think are really, really ugly—purely in a light-hearted way. I’m in freezing Melbourne winter mode (hence the super cuddly Uniqlo jacket), and I wanted to film something fun because you guys always tell me you love hearing my weird thought process… especially when I see a bag and then I can’t unsee what it reminds me of. I talk through why the Chanel 22 looks like an expensive “potato sack” (and why I can’t justify nearly $8K AUD for something so unstructured), and why the Chanel rectangular mini with top handle feels like Chanel just slapped on a handle and called it “new” (Malibu Stacy vibes). I also share why the Louis Vuitton Stardust collection missed the mark for me—especially the embossed OnTheGo/empreinte-style pieces that read more “chunky kid glitter makeup” than luxe. Then we get into the Bottega Veneta Mini Jodie (impractical and gives me crumpled-paper/runaway-cartoon-bundle energy), puffer bags like the YSL LouLou Puffer and LV Coussin (sleeping bag/pillow territory), and the Chanel 19—where the mixed hardware feels messy and that CC lock with the chain seriously reminds me of tarantula legs. If you disagree, I’m genuinely happy to be challenged—tell me what you love about them.
