Hi girly pops — in this video I did a super decompressing AliExpress unboxing/try-on of designer luxury bougie dupes, and it was my first purchase after the tariffs hit… so yes, I had to be picky because the order ended up being like $300. I opened five packages and gave you my real-time thoughts on quality, fit, and whether each piece actually looks elevated or if it’s giving cheap material. I tried on a white lace set that’s hella cute (bachelorette vibes, not bridal), but it is see-through in the bust and skirt so you’ll want supportive nude underwear and maybe chicken cutlets. I also unboxed a pleather RB newsboy hat with crystals because I wanted a “nice hat hat” that actually elevates an outfit — and the structure/quality surprised me in a good way. Then I showed an ethereal apricot shimmery long-sleeve mini dress (shoulder pads, built-in sash, peekaboo back) that literally gave jellyfish vibes in the best way. And the moment: the shoes. I gambled on a Versace-style charm T-strap heel listing with no reviews and it paid off — heavy metal hardware, sparkly crystals, true to size… just complicated to put on and I may need to poke an extra hole. Finally, I tried Chanel-inspired off-white knee-high boots with removable camellia straps — comfy, cushioned, iconic, but not wide-calf friendly. Overall? One of my favorite dupe hauls and well worth the money if you’re investing in good dupes.
