Much Love,
Shea

In my home we save for lavish vacations. To each their own. Some prefer possessions others prefer experiences. Some fortunate soul have both.
I prefer and save for both
YES! I bought my first Louis Vuitton by selling clothes and bags I never used on facebook! took literally two days.
Cutting off coffees and eating out will make you save so much money! Such a good tip
I won't stop buying café but I cook from scratch at least 6days a week.
I stopped buying coffee two years ago. I invested in an expensive mug that keeps my drinks hot for up to 8 hours. The mug paid for itself in two weeks. I drink plain anyway but it helps save some cash. Another way I have saved a lot of money is doing my own nails. It has saved me so much money and everyone is always shocked when they ask who I go to and i say, me! I have two kids and work but I keep with it once a week. Then a color change every five days. It's become a therapeutic ritual and the best part is when I have my nail day, the kids and hubby help out and do things for me so I don't ruin my nails, it is a mini pamper day. Another way I saved is cleaning my house. I have someone come out once every four months for a deep clean but do it all my self. Plus it's great exercise. My motto is I'm young now and can do it myself, I'm not paying someone else to do it. When I get older and unable to do these things then I'll pay for the service.
These are really great tips!!! What kind of mug do you use?? I really want to invest in a good one because ALL of mine are terrible! Thanks so much!! :)
Good tips
If we can stop paying rent that will work wonders 🙏🏾
100% agree with your tips!! you CAN afford everything you want ❤ I am not a big hand bag person but we just bought a new car using similar tips you shared here :) i looove your channel !! xoxo
Thank you Missy!!!! That makes me happy to hear you say that! XOXO
Shea, so glad I watched this video, it has really changed my perspective of you. You are a smart shopper and I admire that quality. I practice the one month rule. Matter of fact the first LV I purchased I waited years before buying and I bought pre-loved then I used it for years. I want to build my collection for my grand daughter.
Great advice Shea! I follow similar guidelines. Last year I saved 10% on a LV Speedy by purchasing it with my Discover IT card that was offering 10% cash back on department store purchases in the fall. I purchased it through Neiman Marcus at their LV boutique. I have also had some great pre-loved purchases. And, I LOVE Ebates. My husband couldn't believe it when I got an $85 check in the mail a few months ago, and that was in addition to the cash back I got on my credit card :-)
Great tips, I already knew these though and I still end up with no money haha
After watching your video on the Pochette Metis, I've been obsessed!!! I'm also a mom of 2 little ones and crossbody bags are an essential. I loved your tip about waiting a month for a big purchase. Thanks for this great tips.
About pre-loved, I purchased my pm LV agenda and it was in mint condition!! So glad I saved $200.00 😻
Hi, great tips! I use my airline credit card and get 1 mile for every dollar I spend. Every year I earn enough miles to cover a few transatlantic round trip tickets.
That's so awesome!!
4LVFans Hi! Could you please specify which credit card is that? 😊
I didn't want to like you...because I'm a little green with envy as I've been watching a handful of your videos this afternoon. But OMG...you're too cool and I'm gonna have to subscribe and watch all your videos. Thank you for these tips!!!!
Awe yay!!! That comment seriously makes my day! Thank you so much!!!! XOXO
Great video. I watched Lydia's video as well and I agree with both of you, as long as you take care of your finances and prioritize your expenses, luxury items can be splurged on. I use similar strategies to finance my makeup collection and luxury items. Thanks for the tips and keep up the good job with your channel. XOXO
Thank you so much lovely...I'm glad you agree with my ideas!!! And I'm honored if you watch Lydia's videos...that you also choose to watch mine! XOXOXO
Hello Shea! I just subscribed. Omgosh! I love your down to earth values and encouragement. Thank you so so much! You're beautiful inside and out! Now excuse me while I go binge watch your videos! 😉Have a blessed day! 🌸💕🌸💕
I think this is one of the best 'lifestyle' vlogs I've ever watched; it's so easy to be snarky about videos of someone buying $1000+ luxury bags seemingly all the time (which of course is never the case, but snap judgments are easy on CZcams). However, you really illustrate the intelligent way to approach this hobby, and one thing others should keep in mind is that everyone has their own personal luxury items they choose to invest in, whether they're handbags or cars or education or makeup or computer stuff or whatever "makes your heart sing" as you said. Be careful, be mindful, be smart about it, and be happy. Thanks for sharing your tips.
I think you forgot the basics.
How to actually be able to afford luxury items:
- work hard, save up, be smart with your money so you can save up to buy them yourself
- marry someone with money who can buy em for you
(Either way works for many people, so no shades are thrown here.)
I think the thumbnail title is misleading. Also, you should give a disclaimer in the beginning that these are more tips on saving up when one already has the money to buy them. and I think this video is more directed toward collectors or people who buy luxury items a lot and tips to save up, rather than tips to be able to afford them in the first place.
princessavienz that’s true because for the things she buys like every month, you need a high income to begin with. For normal incomes these tips don’t apply much because you’ll need at least one year for one bag anyway.
This is SUCH AN AMAZINGGGGG VIDEO! I am so grateful for you!!!!! I love these tips and your luxury items. I cannot wait for my FIRST luxury item!
I agree with the credit card and coffee. That really adds up.
It for sure does!!! XOXO
The only time I don't pay my credit card off in full is when I get 12 months or more no interest. If I can use someone else's money for a year or two, why not? I've done that with large purchases like furniture or appliances. The key is to divide the balance by the number of months and either pay that amount if required or put it in a designated savings account. I love using Mint. It really shows you where you are spending. I noticed a lot of money was going to groceries and I started shopping smarter- never go to the store on an empty stomach 😂
Great video. I already do several of these and will start some you mentioned. Thank you for listing the FB groups..I didn't even know they had them. You look great like always!! :-)
These are great tips! Thank you for sharing 💕
your eyes are so pretty!
Love the one month rule! All of these are great tips, thank you.
I just found your channel and love it! You're seem so genuine and kind! ❤️
Awe, thank you Olivia!!!! That's so sweet of you to say! XOXO
Unfortunately in The Netherlands they don't offer such discount of cashbacks like they do in the US😓
A Ab same in Hungary
Same in Australia
Great tips, Shea!!! Thank you for sharing!!
Another great video Shea! I think the same way you do as far as 'balancing' my budget. It's always tempting to buy luxury items, but it does make sense to give yourself time to save $$ as well as think about the big purchase, cause sometimes what I thought I was obsessed about, eventually I got over it.
OMG! another great video. I love my Discover It card. After your 2% cash back, they match everything again after one year. Thanks for all the great tips!
This video was definitely not boring I really enjoyed it! Lots of helpful and great information thanks for posting!
Hey Shea! I totally agree about the credit card. We use one mainly for everything and always pay it off at the end of the month. Not only is it more secure than a debit card, why not get back free money that you were going to spend anyway?! I do use Ebates but I need to be better about remembering them for the larger department stores. xo
Love you guys
MissCrystal
Love, love, love this video!!! Excellent and very informative. A more in depth video on re-selling and buying pre-loved luxury items would be awesome! Thanks again Shea ☺️
She's kinda unintentionally funny...VERY HELPFUL TIPS
+Naturally Kie Awe thank you!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Such a smart way of shopping thank you Shea.
I am glad you filmed this because I had watched a couple of your videos and wondered how you could live so pretentiously. This really showed how financially savvy you are. I am sorry I misjudged you. Great advice.
Can you please do a video about financial literacy? :)

New subscriber! Can’t wait to start saving better
Great tips! I feel like I am a lot like you in the organizational and responsible manner. You explained everything so thoroughly and to the point 👌.
I've heard of Ebates but was afraid - I will try it.
Love this so much, thank you!
I’ve bought some of my best pieces from vintage and trade stores. I found 2 pair of Hunter rain boots for $40 and they looked brand new! Also, found a Louis Vuitton bag with the serial number for $70!!!
Sooo many good tips! I may need to join EBATES!
You have great values and I seriously appreciate it!!!
Love your videos n tips, they make a lot of sense !!
Have been watching a lot of your videos lately, and I have been enjoying them a lot! This video was so helpful and I am excited to try some of these techniques to help me save some money
OMG! I loveeeeeee Mint!! I have been using it for years! They are a sub of Intuit. LOVE LOVE LOVE MINT
I loved this video. Basically already do what you mentioned. Tradesy is awesome to re-sell! The wishlist helps with rule of thumb 👍
Love your videos and reviews :)
Thank you for sharing money saving tips. Your the best.
Thank you Carmen...that's so nice of you to say!!!! XOXO
Love watching all your videos!
really good tips on afording luxury!:)
I totally disagree with the Facebook page bc your Channel is the reason I joined and I've purchased WAYYYY to much in 3 months lol 😂
I'm kidding, great video!!
Thank You!! Really Helpful 🌹🌹🌹
Great advice. I always forget about Ebates ugh. I definitely need to use that more
😲😲😲Boring??? Really? I would say this is one of the Best videos I've viewed. Please, do more like this. A lot of your followers are not financially bless to own a coin purse and it's fun (for me anyways) to view videos and learn. You are so smart! Thank you for sharing & Inspiring too. xox💕💕💕
Brilliant tips ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great advice; I agree with reselling and buying secondhand (consignment for me).
so helpful! Thank you!
love your tips! :)
I just found your channel And I was so supriced that you didn't have onemillion subs! Keep the good work up!
+yara s Awe thank you!!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Hey Shea, this is a really good video, I knew some points, and learned few new hacks! And it’s always awesome to listen to someone who is into luxury stuff, but not crazy rich... you know what I mean!!! Haha! great video 👍🏽
Awe I'm SO glad!!!! Thank you so much for saying that!!!
Nice background set-up.
You never cease to entertain. You are too funny! 'Thanks a Mil' for all the great tips.
Just 1 suggestion: If you ever decide in the future to do a luxury pruchase follow-up video please do one on the luxury consignment industry ....another great way to be able to 'afford' those luxury items that you want. The Real Real, The Luxury Resale Network, and Saks Off 5th are just the ones I know. In addition I have heard of the site, Retail Me Not foe % codes (??). Anyway hope this helps.
I literally paused the video and went to mink.com and downloaded the app. I'm guilty of eating out alot especially since my husband works out of the country and its just me and our youngest daughter at home. This app really put things into perspective for me.
Great information and video!!
This was great- I have found myself wondering what you do for a living and how you afford high end pieces while still raising kids. It’s all about values when it comes to spending money.
Such a helpful video!
Much better than I tought. Thanks.
LOVE this!
I love Lydia! she is one of my faves as well!
Getting the Starbucks or any other coffee store K-Cups, teabags, etc. along using your own travel cup really does beat buying Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, etc. and it saves money too!!!
In this video you look super together! I wish you could do a tutorial on that make you are wearing. Your features are just popping...it does look like evening make up but looks super on you!
Hi Shea! I just found your channel and now I'm hooked! I simply love how present it candidly and I think young professionals like me should subscribe to a fun and useful channel like yours. :)
Can you tell me shea when y buy a vintage bag did the owner send y the original bill for the bag ? Can you please answer me ?
Realistic, great advice.
Girl, this is the video we all didn’t know we needed 😅😅😅😅
Oh my goodness - love hearing this!!!
I agree with your tips so much!
This was such a helpful video! I've been saving up for a Louis Vuitton twist and these tips were great! Xo
I'm so glad you liked it!!! :) Thank you!
Great tips!
I think you come off lovely! You are adorable and your tips are wonderful! Ty!
