Sharing my tips for buying both new and vintage designer handbags online. Who to trust, how to spot fakes and tips on getting the best price.
This is probably the most emotional post I’ve ever written but having said that it’s one of the most emotional things I’ve ever done. Here’s my London Marathon story…
ADVERTISING As content creation is our business and how we earn our living you will see advertising in our content from time to time in different forms: We are very selective about what brands we work with on paid/sponsored content creation and as a rule we don't work with any brand that we don't already or wouldn't spend our own money on. We are incredibly proud of all our brand partnership content and it will always be disclaimed in the most transparent way possible so you know exactly what is with 'AD' on screen and in the description box. If the entire video is an 'AD' this will be in the title of the video. Because we don't work with a large amount of brands on sponsored content we do rely on our YouTube ad revenue. Any adverts you watch during the duration of our videos will earn us a small percentage of 'ad revenue' from YouTube and we really appreciate you watching the adverts in full (and not skipping them), but only if and when you can. We also know that time is precious so no pressure. We also use 'Affiliate Links' in the description boxes below our videos and if you make a purchase via these links we will earn a small percentage of commission depending on the sale amount. Not all links are affiliate links but just assume they are. Any items/links marked with '[AD - Pr products]' are products which have been 'gifted' from the respective brands without a contract for sponsored content. This is still classed as a form of advertising because nothing is ever "free", brands are gaining exposure to our audience by us featuring them, so these items are marked as 'AD-Pr product' in the description box but we are under no obligation to feature these items. And as with our paid content, we never accept gifting/pr products from brands that we don't already or wouldn't spend our money on. If we have received a press discount on anything featured this will also be disclaimed. 🎄WHAT I WAS WEARING 🎄 Cable Knit Jumper https://c.klarna.com/al/9iP0/ Cream Cashmere T-Shirt https://c.klarna.com/al/9iP3/ Grey Joggers https://bit.ly/46uXZkG Plum Check Pyjamas https://c.klarna.com/al/9iP1/ 🎄CHRISTMAS DECOR BY ROOM/AREA 🎄 🌟KITCHEN🌟 Preserved Olive Wreaths - Zara Home (Old) Sucker Hooks (Good for glass doors & windows) https://amzn.to/3GeaNB4 Command Clips/Hooks https://amzn.to/47uZYqz Faux Eucalyptus Garlands https://amzn.to/3ReZgYA Set of 3 Gold Cow Bells https://bit.ly/40WsIpE Cake Stand https://bit.ly/3UXClR4 (The glass done was a part of a serving set we already had) Glass Jars (For sweet treats) - IKEA Hessian Ribbon https://amzn.to/3sVV3zF [AD - Pr Product] Daylesford Advent Calendar https://www.daylesford.com [AD - Pr Product] Diptyque Advent Calendar https://bit.ly/40RGYA3 🌟ENTRANCE INTERIOR🌟 Command Hooks https://amzn.to/47uZYqz Artificial Wreath with Gold Cow Bell https://bit.ly/40RadTz Gold Metal Christmas Trees (medium) https://c.klarna.com/al/9iNh/ (small) https://c.klarna.com/al/9iNi/ Pine Branches & Pine Cone sticks - Bought from Aldi Hessian Ribbon https://amzn.to/3sVV3zF Large Vase - Zara Home (old) Console Table https://bit.ly/3wu4lAF (custom design) Round Basket https://bit.ly/3QTm7aT Wove Cube Pouffe https://amzn.to/44IdwN8 🌟ENTRANCE EXTERIOR & OUTDOOR LIGHTS🌟 Autumn & Christmas Wreaths - Lotty's in Faversham Command Hooks used for Door Wreath https://amzn.to/45fPitJ ‘Happy Holidays’ Door Mat https://bit.ly/40JYw0G Large ‘Welcome’ Door Mat https://amzn.to/3rGk3dC Outdoor Rug https://amzn.to/3ZCvxvv Little Stool (Painted) https://amzn.to/3RI4FIk Box Trees - Bought over a year ago from a local garden centre Lights on Trees https://amzn.to/3sMaFWD (100 on box Trees, 200 on Olive Tree) Outdoor House Lights https://amzn.to/3QTJvoE 🌟LOUNGE🌟 Tree (7ft Norman Fir) bought from local Christmas Tree Farm ‘Hans Christmas Anderson’ Wicker Tree Skirt https://bit.ly/49TkCCb Decorations & Lights - all old [AD - Pr Product] Mantle Garland http://bit.ly/3SYASMm [AD - Pr Product] TryGlow Pillar Candles https://bit.ly/3R2SYdA Stockings https://c.klarna.com/al/9iNq/ Command Hooks https://amzn.to/47uZYqz Copper Paper Christmas Trees (we cut one to make it shorter) https://c.klarna.com/al/9iNp/ 🌟DINING TABLE🌟 [AD - Pr Product] Artificial Garlands https://bit.ly/3MZxUmT Table Cloth (Just leftover fabric from my headboard project) https://amzn.to/3GdTIaL (Beige) [AD - Pr Product] Tapered TruGlow Candles (Set of 8) https://bit.ly/47OfflR Round Placemats https://c.klarna.com/al/9iNu/ Christmas Tree Napkins https://bit.ly/3usqkut
