- Hey, y'all.
Welcome to my channel today.
I'll be doing a tag video.
I was not tagged,
but I decided to do it
because the only way for me to join these tags,
is for me to tag myself sometimes, I don't know.
And then tag other people and then keep it going, I guess.
If you're into my channel, my name is Candice.
I am in the Dallas area and I do luxury videos.
Luxury, fashion, and designer beauty.
You're not new, welcome back.
Thanks for tuning in once again,
continuing to watch my videos.
Stay and subscribe.
If you're not new, wait.
Yeah, wait.
No, if you are new,
hopefully you'll stick around and subscribe.
And hopefully you enjoy my videos
because I do lots of fun stuff here.
I think I'm a fun person who knows,
but let's dive right in.
So this is the five sacrifice or something.
Let me get this right. Don't fall, don't fall.
This is the "Five Forever Bags and Five Bags to Sacrifice."
So basically five bags I would never get rid of
and then five bags I would sacrifice if I had to.
So, I saw Isabelle Style post this video,
video,
originally, and I decided to do it
'cause I really, you know,
I was like, okay,
I am very satisfied with the bags I have,
but I had to get rid of five.
Which ones would I choose?
Just good to know that, you know, let's dive right in.
I guess I'll start with the ones
I would never, ever, ever get rid of.
I have my Gucci Marmont camera bag in blush pink.
Oh, absolutely never,
in a million years get rid of this bag.
It was my very first luxury bag
and it has sentimental value.
I had my first speaking gig,
for those of you who don't know,
my primary channel, well, it used to YouTube.
I have two channels by the way.
My primary social channel is Instagram.
And although I prefer YouTube,
just to be honest, they know that.
YouTube is my baby.
I started originally YouTube 2008,
for those that don't know,
but long story behind it.
Let's keep it short, though.
I had my first speaking gig in Houston
at the Create and Cultivate Conference, you know,
talking about what I did for a living, you know,
social media journey and all of that.
And I was like, this is my first big speaking opportunity.
Let me treat myself.
I had no idea it would lead to all this.
It did though. And here we are.
Anyway, I decided to treat myself.
I originally went in there
for the tope color in the same bag.
They were out of stock and he showed me this gorgeous pink.
And at the time I really was not a fan of pink.
It just was one of my least favorite colors.
To make you guys understand, I used to be a huge tomboy.
I still kind of am,
but I've kind of warmed up to the idea of more girly stuff.
Okay?
I enjoy it now.
I still put my tomboy twist on a lot of things,
but here we go.
You know.
Anyway, he showed me his gorgeous pink color.
I was like, I don't really like pink,
but I kinda liked this bag. So I got it.
It's honestly one of the best decisions I've made
as far as designer purses.
It's such a great bag and has sentimental value.
I did not baby this bag
and it's still in such great condition.
The color is absolutely beautiful.
It fits a lot of stuff in here.
I have a bag insert now.
Years later, after getting the bag. It's hot pink.
It's such a great bag.
I know I spent a whole hour talking about this,
but I would never in a million years get rid of this.
And it goes with so many of my outfits, believe it or not.
Even though it's pink, it's so wearable.
It's like a neutral. I love this bag much.
I would never get rid of it. This is definitely number one.
Number two, my YSL Niki Baby
this is in the vintage crinkled black leather.
For obvious reasons, you can probably know it's a black bag.
Black goes with anything.
Also with this bag, I do not have to baby it.
I don't have to,
oh my gosh, I can't get scratches on it.
Oh my gosh, I can't put it on the table.
Oh my gosh, this, that, that.
Mhm, I don't to do that with this, which is nice.
You know, it was nice to be able to just
throw it over my shoulder,
chuck in my backseat if I want to,
I don't really necessarily do that
because I don't want to scratch my seats either.
Just got in the car earlier.
Okay.
It's a really nice bag.
And it's a great classic.
I feel like everyone should have
at least one Saint Laurent bag in their collection.
Here's my mask I need to wash. Disgusting.
Must chuck that on the floor, for sure,
because I need to wash it.
Everyone needs at least one bag.
I would recommend this one.
It's nice to have at least one or two bags
in your collection that you don't have to baby.
That you don't worry about.
When you want to flex on them,
but you don't want to have to do all extra stuff, you know.
I was about to say flex on them, the H word,
but I'm not going to say that on here.
It's a little inappropriate. It's a little harsh.
I won't do that to you.
I'm from Louisiana, okay?
Originally, because you already know the peep game.
Where's number three?
Okay.
Number three is, believe it or not,
another Saint Laurent bag.
Extremely bright neon yellow bag.
It's the Lou camera bag in the...
(nails tapping)
... patent neon yellow.
I don't think necessarily "patent" is in the name of color,
but it is patent leather.
I love this.
Believe it or not, again,
this is another bag that goes with so many things I wear.
I wear a lot of neutrals now.
I used to wear a lot of color.
Even with my colorful outfits,
this still really complimented my outfits really nicely.
Yes, I also have a bag insert in here.
I have a bright green in there.
I basically have bag inserts in all of my bags now.
I buy them from a few different people.
I'll link a few below in case you're interested.
Particularly, I'll tell you where I got this one from.
This is a custom order. I think so.
It has a tassel on the end. I think it's really cute.
I think when these came out,
I originally saw this at random.
At a time I really wasn't following like designer bags.
I was passing randomly through Neiman Marcus
and I just saw it on display.
I was like, oh my gosh, that color.
And this is one of my favorite colors.
If you did not know, I love neon yellow.
Green, whatever you want to call this.
I was like, I love that color.
I love the silver hardware on it too.
It's very casual, in my opinion.
And you can dress it up too, if you wanted.
But it is also very casual. I was like,
I've got to have that. So I went back home,
saw it on the website,
got that and the matching cardholder.
Number four.
This is getting harder.
I'm going to have to go with the Chanel.
You have to have at least one,
I'm just going to go with my black classic flap,
medium large, I think that's what they call this one.
It has gold hardware and caviar leather.
This was also a great purchase.
Most of my purchases, I know,
this is not something you all probably want to hear,
but most of my purchases are kind of impulse.
And I was like, okay, I've worked so hard.
I know people tell you don't do this.
And I don't recommend you do this at all, by the way,
this is just something that works for me.
I was like, I worked so hard. I need a new bag.
So I got it.
And honestly, I've been wanting
a classic Chanel bag for the longest.
I have one of the top handles, I think it's the Coco handle.
And I have a Trendy CC but I really wanted a classic one.
And this was such a great idea.
You don't have to baby it or anything.
I mean, you do have to baby it. It's expensive, okay.
But it doesn't scratch as quickly as the lambskin would.
And my trendy CC is in lambskin.
And I have a bag insert for that as well.
I just want to show you.
I think all Trendy CC's come in lambskin,
if I'm not mistaken.
Just to let you know, but I love this.
You want a dedicated review? I'll probably do one any way.
Now, I want a couple of other colors
and that they're on my wishlist.
I just cannot afford them right now
because those are a lot more expensive now,
going up on the price.
And I'm not one of those people,
they're not going to trick me into,
"Okay. We're about to go up on price, buy it."
No, I'm going to buy it
when I have the money saved to buy it.
That's just me.
Okay? I do it on my own time.
One more. I have to pick one from Louis.
I'm going to go with one of the classic ones.
Kind of classic. Yeah, the Alma is classic.
This is the Alma BB.
They also have the PM and the MM, I think.
It is kind of like a top handle
because you can carry it like this.
What is top handle? You can also wear it cross body.
This is the Damier Ebene, obviously.
It's another great bag.
Also with this, you don't have to worry about it patinaing.
Patina-- ING.
You don't have to worry about the leather darkening
because it's treated with a darker chocolate, leather brown.
I don't know what you would call this color.
I love the feet on the bottom.
It's just a really nice structured bag.
Let's just show you the insert
since it's kind of like tradition I've been doing so far.
It doesn't have the traditional red in there.
Of course it has a longer strap because with keys,
if you want to lock it, it's just a nice, classic bag.
If you don't like bags-- (purse falling)
Oh, my god.
You don't like bags-- I'll get that later.
Obviously, I don't need to pick it up again.
If you don't like bags that small, like I mentioned,
they have the bigger one too.
So those are five bags I would keep.
Okay, I need to get it
because it's going to freak me out when it be on the floor.
I'm so sorry, Louie.
I'm so sorry.
Please forgive me.
Five bags I'll get rid of, I think is easy.
We're going to start off with the easiest things.
With this MCM backpack.
I'll have a specific name for it on screen.
As I've had all of the other--
you see weird things when you're in these bright lights,
darker leather.
This is the MCM backpack.
This was another impulse,
it was a ridiculously stupid impulse,
if you ask me.
I just wanted an MCM backpack.
So I just got this one.
But later on, I saw gray one that I liked more
and the gray is not available anymore.
So that's a bummer.
I do like the classic brown, though.
The reason I would sacrifice this
is because it's been in here for months,
although yes, I have been going polices.
I'm not, not going to say because of COVID
I haven't been going anywhere.
I've been out of town a few times,
couple times with business, one time visit my family.
So I've had plenty of opportunity to wear this.
The fact is, I just had not worn this,
so that's why I would say it can go.
I still don't want to get rid of it
because I do want to wear it.
I love the fact that you can rock it cross body.
It has a longer strap in here.
It's kind of made-- oop.
A poop bag.
That shouldn't be in there.
Did I wear this?
Because I have a random dog poop bag in there.
I knew it was mine because those are the ones from my dog.
Maybe I did wear this. I don't know.
Anyway, it has one of those longer fabric straps on there,
which I really like. They say MCM.
You can wear this cross-body
and then you can wear it, you know, double strap.
It has a back pocket on it, gold hardware.
I really like it.
It's just, you know, something
that I would sacrifice if I had to.
Next, I have, again, these are bags I really like,
but I would just get rid of them if I had to.
This is the Celine Nano belt bag.
And this is in the darker green.
I'm not sure of the name of color.
I'll have it on screen of course.
But I really liked the bag.
Y'all know I'm not one of these people
that buy things because they're trendy.
And then when they go out of style, out of trend,
they stop wearing them.
I'm not going to do that.
I spend way too much money on these bags
to just wear them when they're "in."
Although people aren't wearing these anymore,
I don't care because I really like it.
I like the design, I like how structured this is.
Okay, this is supposed to be me sacrificing.
I will sacrifice it.
I don't even know why. It's just on the list.
But again, this is not a bag I would actually sell.
I'll show you the insert.
I'm defeating the whole purpose of this tag.
I'm so sorry.
I just don't have any other options here.
Because I basically sold everything else. Sacrifice.
This is just one of my least favorite bags that I own,
but it's still one of my favorites.
It's just closer to the bottom.
Number three, I have this Gucci Padlock
I'm not exactly certain the name,
but it will be--
I don't need to keep telling y'all all that.
You can just read it.
I like this bag, don't get me wrong.
I just felt like for my style now, it's a little too big.
I still really like it. I love the top handle.
You squeeze it and it opens.
I have a yellow insert in there.
Nice pops of color.
Longer strap, you can wear cross body.
And it has a back pocket. It's really cute.
As far as the size and everything,
that's why I would probably sacrifice it.
Because I don't really wear bigger bags like this.
This is not extremely big,
but wearing it cross body, like I like to wear my bags,
it's kind of big, you know, against my frame.
Two more.
I have the Burberry crossbody bag.
I don't know what to call it this.
I might have it in my phone.
So that Gucci bag was actually called
the Small Padlock, Gigi Supreme, the Burberry one.
I knew that. I don't know why I forgot it.
This is the Burberry small Macken Check crossbody bag.
And during the time this came out,
it came in multiple colors.
Like they, instead of black, they had brown.
They had like a wine looking color
and they had, like, blue, and blush pink.
They had some gorgeous color schemes.
But for this bag,
I tried to stick traditional with this bag insert.
Having trouble opening it.
Tried to stay traditional
and I just did red for the interior.
I would just sacrifice it because I do wear it a lot,
don't get me wrong.
I don't wear it as often as I used to,
because I have other bags that I'm trying to use as well,
but I used to wear it a lot in my photo shoots.
It goes with everything.
This bag, ignore this print,
this is basically a neutral.
It just works with so much.
I would just get rid of it
because it's kind of been pushed
to the bottom of my favorites now.
Because I have other favorites that have moved up.
And I just bought new things.
So, that's basically the only reason why it's on that list.
Number five.
I hate to put this on there.
This is from the Japan exclusive collection from this year.
And it is a Mini Pochette Accessoires,
I believe that's what you call it.
Only reason I put this on that list
is because I strictly bought it for collective purposes.
I didn't buy it to use at all.
Although I might, I'll probably end up using it.
I don't have any type of insert.
Still has it's packaging and everything in there.
Oh, the receipts in there too.
That tells you I have not worn this.
This is just for collective purposes.
I just really wanted something from that collection.
'Cause I thought that, you know,
the signs and everything was so cute.
And just to say I have it.
And because it came at a decent price, believe it or not.
And I got it shipped from a Japan personal shopper.
Her name is momoland_tokyo.
I'll have it on the screen.
That's her Instagram page.
Right space? Yeah, down here, not here.
I don't know where it's going to go,
but there'll be somewhere.
So that's my five wouldn't get rid of
and five I would sacrifice tag.
I will have some people linked in the description bar.
Those are the people who I'm tagging
to do this so I can check out as well.
Let me know when you guys do them, hopefully you will.
'Cause I do like participating in these tags
and also seeing everybody else's.
It's like a sneaky way to see other people's collections
and see what bags they don't like
and see, you know, what they really love
in case I want to add something else to my collection.
Who knows?
I don't need to add anything else, but just 'cause.
If I did not tag you by the way,
and you want to do this tag,
please still do it because I will love to watch it.
Check yours out as well.
Check yours out.
Yours.
I say yours. That's like, so country,
I try to hide the fact that I'm from the country.
And I mean country. I did it again.
I don't hide the fact that I'm from the country,
but I try to not make it be super obvious
because when I really talk like that,
people have trouble understanding.
I want to be very understandable on here.
I don't want to talk "country."
Okay.
On here because y'all might not understand me.
And y'all might look at me crazy,
but that is, I mean I'm country, okay?
I can't help it.
Enough rambling.
That's my check.
