My Luxury Handbag Collection // 2019

I've been adding quite a bit of handbags to my collection this year and it just keeps growing and growing. The end of 2018 is coming so what better time than to share my entire luxury handbag collection. And before you wonder, yes there is a specific order in which I'm going - in order of the date I purchased these bags (no favourite/least favourite order here).

Celine Nano Belt Bag, Old Vs. New // Quality Difference? Hardware? New Logo?

I really didn't know if I should write a post about this, but after reading up on the PurseForum, people do seem to be interested to know whether their was a change in Phoebe Philo's handbag designs now that Hedi took over Céline.

Luckily, I do own an "old" Céline Nano Belt bag in the colour Light Taupe as well as a "new" one. I purchased the first Belt Bag a few months before Hedi presented his first collection at Celine. I loved the bag so much that I did end up buying another Nano Belt bag in Grey in late 2018. This bag however already had the new CELINE logo that Hedi introduced.

I thought it might be helpful to see what exactly the difference is between the old and new Belt Bags, other than the obvious Logo change. I'm going to let you know if there is any difference in hardware, leather, overall quality etc.

My Top 10 Beauty & Skincare Favourites of 2018

I have done many many fashion / handbag related blogpost in the past couple of months, so it's definitely time to switch it up again and share my love for beauty and skincare. I found a couple of amazing products in 2018 that I use regularly and couldn't live without.

Of course I use way more products but I made sure to only mention the ones that I actually truly love and are my favourites. For example I'm not mentioning any brow products because I use many different ones and none of them are a true game-changer for me, they all just do what they're supposed to.

Luxury Wishlist for 2019

I should start off by saying that I'm very strict with my wishlists and not everything gets written down on it. If I see a bag that I like the look of, I'm not going to put it on my list unless I did enough research on it beforehand and made sure that it could fit my lifestyle pretty nicely. For example, I'm not going to put Valentino Rockstud Heels on my wishlist even though I love the look of them, but I know I never wear heels, maybe once or twice a year and for that high of a price tag, I'm not even "wishing" for them.

A wishlist to me is more of a "Probably going to buy" list, rather than "Things I find extremely gorgeous" list.

With that being said, let's get into the things I actually consider buying next year or in the future.

The Best & Worst Luxury Purchases of 2018

I usually try to be positive and share the great purchases I made with everyone, so I hardly tell you about items that were complete no-no's for me, unless they are make up or skincare - I'm always 100% open and honest about these types of products, so if you better save your money on something, imma tell you.

But since luxury purchases are a way heftier investment than skincare or make up, I think it's time for me to share with you my worst luxury purchases I made this year.

Since I did sell all of my worst purchases already, I'll make sure to insert a picture of them that I can find online so you know what exact item I'm talking about.

My Luxury SLG (Small Leather Goods) Collection // 2018

My entire SLG collection consist of Louis Vuitton pieces because I personally prefer to have canvas pieces for inside my handbags because they're a lot more durable and carefree. I'd hate to have a super expensive Chanel make-up bag in lambskin leather and have it ruined by the things I have floating around inside my handbag.

Keep in mind that I don't have any specific order for these.
