SOME of the luxury clothes in your closet may actually make you look cheap, according to a fashion pro.
If you want to keep your style looking chic, there are some fancy items you might want to avoid and some things you can wear instead.
Several favorite high end fashion brands have items that can make you look “nouveau riche” instead of classy, according to French beauty expert Frederique Bros.
“You know some of your beloved fashion items make your look very cheap,” the French fashion and lifestyle influencer said in a recent YouTube video.
Bros runs through a list of examples and offers alternatives for what you can put on instead.
One brand that she said can push you into the territory of looking cheap is Hermes, which she notes is one of her personal favorites.

With flashy branding, like the large metal H buckle on its fashionable leather belts, some of its accessories look better with a less is more approach.
Bros says a good way to tone down the flashiness is to pair the belt with more low-key colors and clothing items.
Another Hermes no-no is wearing multiple accessories while also carrying the brand’s famous Birkin bag.
Bros recommends wearing just one item at a time.

“Even if those items cost a lot of money it’s too much,” she said.
“Try not to wear them all together.”
The famous Gucci belt with the the two overlapping G’s belt buckle in the front is another item to avoid.
One reason the belt is problematic is due to the number of fakes and simply because the item is too popular.
“When you see fashion items like that and it’s seen everywhere, you want it,” explains Bros.
“And when you want it it’s already out of fashion.”
Instead of buying the ubiquitous Gucci belt, Bros recommends investing in a simple high quality leather belt instead.
The one belt she recommends is the Hermes leather belt.
