Firstly, I am so sorry it has been so long since my last post! After lockdown, I was trying to work from home with two children, and really just needed to fund another escape or distraction from real life, that provided some light entertainment and was, well, fun! So I followed my love for luxury goods further down the rabbit hole, and started a youtube channel, talking all things luxury, unboxings, reviews, hauls, all of that good stuff! I love watching these channels on youtube and find them a great escapism, as well as love seeing all of the new goodies people are adding to their collections and hearing their thoughts and reviews. I have started it, it has been live for 3 weeks and has some unboxings, reviews and my Louis Vuitton collection up on it.
Now, if you have read this blog for a while, you will know it is anonymous and I talk about that in my first ever post. That hasn’t changed, the channel is still anonymous, for all of the same reasons and also not to distract from my 9-5 job in my real life. But I love it, I really enjoy talking more about luxury items, showing you what I have added to my collection, giving reviews, and almost using the camera as that person in my life to talk to about all things luxury who understands and doesn’t judge. This isn’t a change in career – obviously!- and I am not trying to replace my own job. This is my hobby, which I love and any reivews I give, will be genuine. You will not see haul after haul of highstreet fashion, or items I am trying to sell to you, there is of course a place for that and some very successful bloggers who do, but that is not what I am trying to be. The items you will see are bought with my own money, not gifted and not sponsored, if I am ever lucky enough to be gifted something and I talk about it on my channel, I will clearly tell you that. I may use affiliate links, like the ringlight I am about to show you, but if I do it will be because I have bought the item myself and find it useful or recommend it.
I do not have any fancy equipment, I am filming on my iphone 10 and I am using this cheap and cheerful ringlight from amazon:
For someone starting out – like me- and trying not to spend too much money on equipment I personally would not know how to use, this does the job! It holds my phone as I film inside the ringlight to give better lighting in the video. It is not the sturdiest if someone is doing this professionally, but great for a hobby channel or at least to get started.
So there we are, now also on youtube! I can tell you that I NEVER thought I would say those words, ever! I would love it if you would check out my channel, subscribe and if there is anything esle you would like to see, please leave me a comment!
As always, thank you so much for being here, and stay safe!
