I was about to say this. That’s no fresh unboxing paper. That’s been used and used.
Although the ribbon says 2025 and LE DESSIN SOUS TOUTES SES COUTURES MEILLEURS VŒUX
So at least that part is new. But she could have gotten the ribbon on any package.

I like her outfit styling but this is really disappointing.......She seemed so original too..
I guess as an influencer you need to build that messaging that you have access to exclusive offers etc. Even without looking at the paper lining, I was surprised by the whole narrative /believability that one can walk into a store in Paris and get a Birkin these days, especially as a tourist.
Crumpled paper inside but main thing I think is unusual is the outside of the box is damaged and peeling apart!
I think in part she’s doing it bc she’s going to be promoting her own bags. I guess she really shouldn’t be wearing anyone else’s.
But one of the things I find annoying with these kinds of “getting rid of luxury videos”, although she doesn’t explicitly say this in the video, is the implication that designer goods are just so materialistic and it’s better to appreciate experiences. Wearing and using luxuriously made items is an experience too is it not? Not everyone buys designer goods to bolster their identity.
She had good content back in the day but then she started shopping h as a boutique client and things just went downhill. I got the impression that she spends beyond what she’s comfortable with. She’s noted having to sell bags to buy h bags. I think she got too wrapped up in the h competition not really thinking about what she really likes versus what others think she’s supposed to like. The constant change of minds was giving me whiplash.
It’s like that Australian YouTuber who constantly buys and sells bags or this person who posted about mental health. It gives me the impression there’s a lot more going on here that we don’t see whether it’s addiction, emotional instability, boredom etc.
in the beginning watching luxury YouTubers was entertaining but after
Watching these people month after month and now year after year continuing to consume and consume and sell it just gets very old. I get a lot of it has to do with wanting to earn money off the channel but there’s def something else beyond that. Also when they promote low or mid tier brands and note how much they love these items it makes me question the validity of anything else they say. Would they really buy these items if they weren’t offered for free and paid to do the promotion given their interest in status luxury brands?
And today with world events esp in America it just gives cringe vibes. Sure they do this as an escape but the world is changing. Many luxury brands are crashing. Prices have gotten too high. Brands too greedy. The ultra wealthy are having their let them eat cake moments.
The fashion industry as a whole and their uber wealthy clientele walking around with bag charms in their hair and dressed head to toe in a brand while people are suffering or dying is not just cringe but absolutely tone deaf.
This came up in my feed and it made me laugh. Just goes to show how fake some of these people are. This is not a private VIP room. This is the room they do the tailoring for the made to measure clothing at FSH! You can even see the mannequins and cuff styles in the background ! I have been to this room several times lol. It is definitely not a VIP room. 
You can just ask for a raincoat. Usually they have some lying around and are happy to give them out? I mean, I’m not saying the whole thing isn’t faked but I ask for raincoats with my bags so I know it’s perfectly possible.
Ok. Thank you for posting this. I follow her because I think her fashion sense is really interesting but I was super confused with the crumpled paper. I was also confused because didn’t she JUST get the b30 in Paris?
Is it possible she left the box behind because she was traveling home so she “unboxed” it for instance in an old box? I guess there’s really no reason to do that either. Disappointing that everything just seems faked these days.
This is interesting. I used to watch Lydia but her content became so unrealistic I stopped. So she’s selling her bags because what she loves is gardening and horseback riding? Is she still going to wear the $2000 dresses while gardening? That turned me off more than the Hermes bags tbh.
Edited: OT question
Only she could answer that. But why not just say she left the box in Paris and just open a dust bag?
But also, I don’t think she has a b25 in her collection before so where did she get the box from?
I agree with you that everyone and everything seems so fake.
I don’t live there so I can’t confirm or deny. But Tamara also mentioned London being not safe a few years ago and got a lot of flack for it. I guess it depends on which newspaper you read? 🤷♀️
it makes the whole thing so much less interesting and less fun. It’s made me tune out almost all influencers which I’m quite sure is the opposite of their aim.
