I'm wondering if fwdstyling is really a reseller. She often has bags pop up in her ig stories for sale and I don't recall them being on her feed.

Remember at one time she was so into fendi and sold off all her fendi stuff, including sending back her questionable grey confetti mini peekaboo that she got from an Instagram seller who is quite well known.

So don't put it past her to sell stuff from her "favorite" brand, chanel or h.

LOL yes, I do remember that and that possibly fake Fendi peekaboo!

I just saw fashionablyamy’s big cc gold earrings priced nearly double & the other gold dangle earrings again priced maybe double of retail looks so used as it’s older style both sold. Wow.. why would people buy at such high prices just amazes me. But honestly her using her position to tap into sales would be ok with me but tapping into sales reaping nearly double whilst using fashionphile priced as reference is just so off putting. Ugh.. I quite liked her content too. But these people are all so greedy and using their position to their advantage not in nice way.

Fwdstyling is a reseller for sure. She's sneakier about it though because she knows how resellers are perceived.

ITA. I know they're hard to get, but if it were me, I rather wait for a brand new piece from the upcoming seasons that I'll like as well. There'll always be something else that I'll like. And it would certainly still be cheaper than paying those prices lol. Fashionphile is known to sell their Chanel items at high prices, right? It's very smart of her to reference them, so hers looks like a "deal" lol.

It seems like a lot of people like her content (as do I). But nowadays, I feel like her unboxings are a sham, because she's only going to sell them later lol. I think her channel skyrocketed once she bought more and did more unboxings these past couple of years.

Her IG story was precisely what I was referring to. I am VERY curious to see which bags she has sold off behind the scenes and will put up for sale this month or next month. We already know she has sold her Gabrielle bag. I haven't seen her use her Oreo Chanel 19 in a long while so I wonder if she ended up selling that one too. 5 Hermes bags in one year is very unrealistic and unattainable to many. She is living a verrrrrrry expensive lifestyle at the moment. Just a quick tally:

- 5 H bags: ~$60k if we want to average it to $12k each
- Black C19: $5700
- Oreo C19: $5100
- Celine White Coat: $3500
- Celine Romy Bag: $2500
- Celine Ava Bag: $1400
- Max Mara Coat: $4k
- Balenciaga Coat: $2350
- Dior Bobby: $3500
- Cartier Watch: $8k

That's nearly $100k in luxury goods and that probably doesn't even cover all of it. How does she afford this lifestyle?

I think she affords much from YouTube. There are fashion bloggers who don’t have much more followers/engagement as her making over $300k from YouTube

Yes she is. She only sells through stories and dms. Most of the bags she shows on her profile aren’t hers. That’s why you’ll see her having a seasonal color in multiple styles of bags.

I used to watch her in the early pandemic until she converted to Hermes. I can see her struggle on resources to fund Hermes journey, which made me a little sad. I mean, both houses are so different and there is nothing wrong loving both and keeping both of their items. Good thing about things is that we don't have to part from one before cozy with the other, such as relationship.

I just saw her last video and agree, it’s sad. There was something in her voice too—like she wasn’t comfortable. Luxury should be fun and I’m a believer in buying what you love for as long as you can love and enjoy it. But the way she shops seems just…panicked and frenetic. Six Nano Chanel bags in four months? Four hats? At that rate, shopping isn’t fun. It’s stressful and you can see it when she talks.

fashionablyamy- wow checked out her instagram sale and idk why but reselling items to your own audience at premium prices just rubs me the wrong way.
The volume she purchases Chanel and re-homes items in such a small amount of time she is starting to give me "I'm a reseller" vibes

 

[jsmile]

Homegirl needs to sell for funds to spend at hermes "for things she will buy anyways, so it might as well be hermes". Total bs

She's too far into the game to stop now. She has already probably bought 2x the b25 bag price (common in a competitive market) and it has already been a year since she started. She has no choice to keep going back to the same store and buy more or else the SA may forget about her. There are other women that have been longer term h customers or spent more than her. She has to keep going or the last year was for nothing (and no, the picotin was not the goal lol)

Ohhh she is? I thought everything is hers. Maybe that’s why she posted that she has a dark beige mini comparison with the 21c grey in her stories but I cannot seem to see the 21c grey on any of her posts.

For me, I think one of the reasons it also rubs me the wrong way is because it's like she's taking "advantage" of her subbies/audience. They love her content and in turn, she jacks up the prices for them lol. Yes, I know no one's forcing anyone to buy anything and by the looks of it, they're more than happy to fork out that $$$ over to her. I totally get reseller vibes too!

Honestly, I think it's all bs too ;P

You are right! I think she spent just under $20K pre-tax (not including the picotin) last year. I'm probably not worldly enough, but I actually think she's a baller haha. I also don't know why, but I don't see her as struggling to come up with funds for H. She's spoken about having an investment property and I think how she only uses the cushion of the cushion of her savings (or something like that). I think she just doesn't want to spend new $ and wants to make $$$$$ via the premium prices and membership.

BTW, you are hilarious, and IMO, your pov is always spot on!

Normally I don't put any opinion since everyone has her own life; but for this FashionablyAmy I have to admit that although she's been trying too hard to put luxuries from head to toe, she still doesn't look and act elegant at all. So bad she seems never want to accept the honest comments.

What did she do/say that makes you say this?

I am enjoying the Yt channel My First Luxury. I think she has some good opinions and new thoughts rather than just buying everything that's hot. She speaks pretty clearly and susinctly which is always a plus.
