    Here are some of my favorite picks from Fashionphile:
    1. A large Fendi Peekaboo in the Monster edition is SUCH a RARE find, let alone one in excellent condition (for under $2k): fashionphile.pxf.io/WqaajZ
    2. A large Dior Diorissimo Tote in a classic black pebbled leather with a fun inside pop of color in very good condition for $1.4k: fashionphile.pxf.io/OrQQXr
    3. I can't believe someone hasn't snatched ups this YSL Large LouLou in excellent condition for $2k (currently discounted 20% off!): fashionphile.pxf.io/KjLLVy
    4. While this doesn't come with the strap. YSL does croc embossing really well and this medium sac du jour is still a stunner, with a stunning price tag of $1.3k: fashionphile.pxf.io/QyrrBx
    5. There are honestly quite a few Kelly 35s at the moment, including one in Raisin (a surprisingly wearable purple) that is 20% for $7.1K, that's almost half off retail! fashionphile.pxf.io/rQ33Vy

    Omg a huge yes to this whole video-you’re reading my mind!!! ❤ I’m having the same internal debate about big bags and expanding my work bag collection. I too have been pining over a K35 to add to my collection as a work bag, but thank you for putting the Fendi peekaboo on my radar! I just hadn’t considered it for some reason, but it definitely gives Kelly vibes. Maybe a good “betweener” to see if I’d even LIKE that style of bag for work, as I’m usually a tote gal. 🤔😊 At any rate, thank you! I’ll tag you if I end up getting something that you’ve influenced me on… after all, your B35 videos influenced me to get mine! 😉🧡

      Please do! Now the question is, will the Peekaboo scratch the itch for the K35? Or would you just need both?? 😉

    Great video! I love the Chanel executive Cerf tote for work - I have used it for almost 15 years now! Didn’t use it much during Covid and exactly like you said, since going back to the office post-Covid, it’s become my go-to work bag again. I’ve been on the look out for another big work bag too, but actually anything I come across are not as practical and smart looking as my Chanel tote - it fits a laptop, has a back pocket that I can use for files, and has a front pocket (with cc lock) for things I need to keep safe. The style has been discontinued but sells for a good price on resale market. 😊😊

      Really wish that Chanel can bring this style back, or something similar, for those of us that need a smart work bag! Mine is in a really nice blue colour with silver hardware, which goes so nicely with my usual go-to corporare colours 🙈 of navy, grey and black actually. But still wish I could have another one in black and gold hardware!

    Hermes artisan actually advised me to go for a birkin for a work bag since it’s double handle compared to Kelly as to which I was originally leaning towards at. I would say pick any of your options that are double handle just to have a more long last time evergreen work bag than can withstand the test of time ❤

    • @abriefcaseofluxury
      @abriefcaseofluxury  Před 3 měsíci +2

      That's actually a really good point, just because a bag is capable of carrying a lot, doesn't mean its necessarily good for the integrity of the bag. I'm curious how the Kelly 35 wears over time, when it's filled to the brim and used everyday for work...

      @@abriefcaseofluxury I would use the Olsen twins as a reference, I noticed how worn their Kelly bag is, like even the handle looks like I needed a break that they something had to hold their bag from the base of the bag.

    I have a 15 inch macbook. I keep it in a sturdy case, and carry around whatever bag I want! I bought a new Birkin 30 (noir + palladium), but my desire for a B25 is still strong. I hope B25 prices fall!

      I’ve always loved the look of the Bayswater, I have a little heart flip whenever I see one. Good to know it can be used as a work bag! Does it get heavy? (People ask this about the birkin35 too and although the answer is yes, it’s worth it!!) 😉

    Do you consider the weight of the each bag since it’s going to be a big work bag for laptop?

    • @abriefcaseofluxury
      @abriefcaseofluxury  Před 3 měsíci +1

      That's a good point - I think I just naturally assume that if I want a leather bag of this size, weight is non-negotiable, especially if you want the leather to be thick and substantial enough. Plus, I easily carry 7+ pounds for work, not including the weight of the bag, so what's another 2-3 pounds... 😅

    • @wittingchic
      @wittingchic Před 3 měsíci

      If you’re commuting via train or really carrying it longer distances, I think it’s more of a consideration, but as it is, if it’s just from your car into a building (as it is for me) I think anything goes, anyone could schlep around a bowling ball for 5 minutes 🤣😂😅😁
