Hermes Kelly 6 Months Later - safety concerns, what I know now TrainGirl.Meghan 2025-05-17 | I decided not to dive too deeply into details about the things I've experienced in cities that have made me want to be more cautious when carrying my designer bags because I want this to be a lighter video overall while also being honest about how much and where I'm using my kelly bag β₯οΈ It would feel weird to get into specifics and talk about times when I have been frightened for my safety, and next be like hehe does it grocery store.Personally, I don't mind that I can't use it a ton right now.

Sharing all of my micros and ranking them from least to most practical - Not a word you typically hear associated with micro bags πIncluding micro bags from Chanel, Fendi, Prada, Gucci, and Loewe.

BEST SHOES FOR THE CITY! No more Manolo Blahnik π TrainGirl.Meghan 2024-10-26 | We all know that Sex and the City was full of impossibilities. Running around the city in designer heels definitely makes the list!

I saved 15% on two luxury bags! Introducing a new brand to my collection TrainGirl.Meghan 2024-09-24 | Sharing how I saved 15% on my most recent luxury purchase! I was drawn to understated shoulder bags from brands like Khaite and The Row. This led me to discover the minimalist brand, Aesther Ekme. They design luxury bags made in Spain!Now I am by no means a minimalist, but I appreciate how well understated, modern pieces fit into my varied wardrobe. ** the flap bag is currently on sale at Saks. I called BG for a price match.AESTHER EKMEFold-Over Flap Leather Shoulder BagApprox. 6.7"H x 12.2"W x 2.4"DMidi Leather Hobo Bag (also available in black and cream smooth leather)Approx. 14.8"H x 12"W x 0.4"D (it fills out about 1-2 inches in width if needed)The Phantom Smooth Calfskin Bucket Bag looks like a great dupe for Khaite's Lotus bag!

Ben and I had a week off visiting family, but we had 3 days to ourselves before heading back to work. We had a wonderful time at Hermes! I understand that it can be a turn off for people not knowing what they'll be able to get in store or if they will be "offered" something. I have to be honest, I found it really exciting. It would have been totally cool if they didn't have a bag for me.

LUXURY REGRETS... I wasted $$$ TrainGirl.Meghan 2024-05-16 | So what would you do with your luxury shopping time machine? I would buy a classic flap 8 years ago π A few specific expensive pieces I regret wasting money on (and I mean 'wasted' only because I didn't get the wear and joy out of them I expected): 1. Stuart Weitzman boots (multiple pairs...) π2. Manolo Blahnik Maysli pump3. A stiff frilly Zimmerman dress that probably can't even fit anymore...One lesson I'm trying to take forward - Just because I like something does not mean I need a dozen versions of it. I bought 4-5 frilly silk Saloni dresses because I loved the style. Yes, I wore them all, but not often enough to justify the quantity. One or two would have been plenty. Now they hang unworn in my closet. I doubt they even fit...Fendi Peekaboo/Bottega Jodie Unboxing youtu.be/gfI2m_PuPF4?si=wt5vAS-61j-cScaKyoutu.be/RIL5TcPdgn8?si=MaYEDnd4G1vj-Xmf

Chatty GRWM | Where Ive been and where Im going π TrainGirl.Meghan 2024-05-01 | I realized last year that I'd really slowed down on the unboxings compared to my first two years on youtube. I still love doing handbag reviews, and I hope I have something valuable/entertaining to contribute to this space even with fewer unboxings. If you saw my wishlist video, you'll know I certainly plan to keep buying handbags, but it will be at a slower pace. In exchange, I'll be spending more money out with friends. Maybe I'll even film bits of that when it happens πProducts used:La Roche-Posay - Anthelios Mineral SPF 30 Face Moisturizer with Hyaluronic AcidMERIT - The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Foundation and Concealer Stick MAC - Glow Play Blush (heat index is my fave, but I use a couple)MERIT - Brow 1980 Volumizing Eyebrow Pomade Gel (why does Merit give their products such long names?)Stila - Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner (dark brown)LancΓ΄me - Lash IdΓ΄le Lengthening & Volumizing MascaraDior - 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette (669)ClΓ© de Peau BeautΓ© - The Luminizing Face EnhancerBOBBI BROWN - Extra Lip Tint Sheer Oil-Infused Lip Balm

Sabato De Sarnos New Jackie | Gucci Spring Summer 2024 TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-09-28 | The Jackie bag has seen many changes since it came out in the 1950's, but the upcoming bolt snap clasp is my least favorite. Why remove the perfect piston closure? Perhaps Sabato De Sarno wanted to revisit an old design or have lighter hardware. Perhaps it's appropriate for the new creative director to update the every changing but always classic Jackie β€οΈI greatly enjoyed the show, but I'll be grabbing a current Jackie as soon as possible before the piston is replaced π@Jessiestyle New Gucci Bags Video youtu.be/5_6iK13VCs0?si=3rxX879MR3ZbzYoC@CassieThorpe New Gucci Video youtu.be/kLLnDnJuFKw?si=4gk2-bpVolSeHyppMy Jackie Review youtu.be/woW1y0jy7Ls?si=4ONecIzLQKfCpaeDJackie Unboxing youtu.be/YxFfuyOCUyo?si=UJ6LBDHHgnq8b-Kh
NEVER Buying From LilySilk Again | Unsponsored Honest Update TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-09-10 | Part of the reason I am so angry in this video is because I have been a huge fan of LilySilk's for 3 years now. I thought they were fantastic. Now I feel that I can no longer trust their products. This is only my opinion based on my experience. I don't know anything about their production process. I was happy with previous products, and I am not happy with what I recently received.I had been wanting to order a few things from LilySilk for awhile (the king sized pillowcase and a flat sheet), so jumped on the anniversary sale deals when they came around. I ordered - 1. Twin sized flat sheet 22 momme2. One King sized 22 momme pillowcase 3. Tank nightdress 4. Button down shirt nightdressThis totaled to $560 after discounts ($702 without). I also received free gifts with purchase, the mixed-fabric standard pillowcase and an eye mask. I realize I might sound overly critical or overly dramatic in this video, but I'm very disappointed to see what I feel is the declining quality at LilySilk. Perhaps they face increased pressure to increase profits (by cheapening the product and raising prices). I would rather shop in-person from department stores where I can return items with quality issues. This is one reason I usually shop at Nordstrom. For sporty/outdoor clothes, I highly recommend REI because they will stand behind their products and offer incredible customer service.This is just my opinion based on my experience. I don't claim to be an expert. Brands I highly recommend for silk products, Equipment and Vince. I always buy these on sale, typically at Nordstrom Rack. Thrift stores also have a lot of silk shirts. I don't shop secondhand online, but I've heard good things about shopping for silk on ebay. For PJs, I recently bought a set on sale from Eberjey. OMG I love them! Highly recommend.

My Entire SLG Collection | Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton, Bottega Veneta TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-08-26 | I stupidly started filming while doing laundry, but it was the only time I had. π Sorry about the brief noise towards the end! I paused for 20 minutes in the middle of filming, but I was running out of time that day πI know LV get's all of the SLG attention online, but don't skip the Ferragamo wallets. My exact one is discontinued, but I highly recommend keeping an eye out on the secondhand market or the outlets. There is a similar one still sold at Ferragamo.ferragamo.com/shop/us/en/women/wallets-small-leathers-goods/wallets-1/051-736967
Chanel Bag Unboxing! TBE Forever π TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-08-19 | 23S unboxing! I'd been looking at this bag online for several weeks, and I had a really good feeling about it even though I couldn't see it in person before purchasing. US Chanels allow for 30 day returns. Not just store credit.I did try on the most beautiful teal classic flap when I was there, but I can't stomach those prices. Fortunately, I am and will always be a micro bag lover. CLUTCH WITH CHAINLambskin, Resin & Gold-Tone MetalDark PurpleRef. AP3291 B10700 NN274$2,600I believe Chanel CAs can look up the stock for any product, but the store manager has some control in what they can ship. Not every store is allowed to ship bags, especially if they have not met the client in person.
Can I Use Color Seasons and Kibbe To Make Better Purchases? TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-08-18 | This was something I filmed spontaneously. I expect to put out a more organized video as I learn more. To be clear, I'm not saying Kibbe has anything to do with minimalism. My thought is I can use these theories to make better and fewer purchases.I think Ellie-Jean does a great job of explaining Kibbe's theory (link below). I'm still learning, so I just apply the bits that make sense to me because I've found it helps. To me, "better purchases" means buying pieces that I feel good in for many years. My goal is to continuing buying fewer pieces. That does not mean I won't be buying luxury. The main way I'm able to afford luxury pieces is by minimizing my smaller purchases. See Ellie-Jean's breakdown of Kibbe's ideas here: bodyandstyle.com/kibbe-body-types@elliejeanroyden My Bags and Body Types video youtube.com/watch?v=q8k1dtsStnE

How I Really Feel About Quiet Luxury π TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-04-16 | Are we all desperately trying to increase our perceived status and 'quiet luxury' is the new hot thing to try? I'll keep my logos, and Gwyneth can keep her v candle π To be fair, I haven't watched every how-to video being uploaded on quiet luxury because I'm not interested. I'm sure many people express their interest in the style without being critical of others.
Luxury Mini Bag Collection | Pt 2 of my full handbag collection TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-04-13 | Sharing what I consider to be my mini bags! These are the bags that can fit all essentials (keys, phone, wallet, maybe sunnies), but they cannot reasonably fit a mini pochette. I mention a small cotton pouch multiple times in this video. I use those free cotton pouches that often come with jewelry purchases to be a tiny catch-all in my bag for keys and a lip gloss just so they aren't rolling around or scratching against my wallet. They are so thin and flexible, so they take absolutely no space unlike an LV pochette. Goodness knows I love my LV pochette, but it just won't fit in these bags πNext filming my "small" handbags for part 3 πMicro Bag Collection youtu.be/Z013-i4Jl0ALouis Vuitton Sofia Coppola clutch - This bag should come with a mirror.

Luxury Micro Bag Collection | Long live the TBE β€οΈ TrainGirl.Meghan 2023-04-07 | I'm filming my full luxury handbag collection in pieces, broken down by size. We'll have Micro, Mini, Small and Medium. No surprise, I don't really have any bags I would call large. Maybe two could are on the fence. I've loosely defined them by capacity. So micros bags cannot hold all of my essentials (phone, wallet, keys, lip). Mini bags can only hold the essentials, but you couldn't necessarily fit a pouch. My small bags will be a further step up from this where they can actually hold my essentials and extra pouches and sunglasses π I was able to film my mini bag collection today, so stay tuned for that next week! πGucci BlondieBulgari Serpenti Crossbody (I know, but I have my reasons)Chanel TrendyChanel Flap Coin Purse on chain (this is what the website called it, screenshots are super handy to hold onto)Loewe Elephant Pocket Bag
