Hey friend,
Let’s talk about something that looks frugal on TikTok but… isn’t.
Luxury dupe hauls.
They show up on your feed like,
“Look at me saving money by buying this $300 look for $29!”
But behind the “steal” is a cycle of cheap production, fast-turnover impulse buying, and factories that pay the real cost.
And honestly? That’s not frugal — that’s overconsumption dressed up as savings.
This week’s episode breaks down why luxury dupe culture isn’t harmless and how it’s quietly draining your wallet, cluttering your home, and feeding the very industries most of us want to opt out of.
We promise: no shame, no finger-wagging, just real talk and practical alternatives. 🎧💬
Here’s what we get into in the episode 🎙️
Why “dupes” aren’t automatically ethical or affordable
How fast-fashion algorithms are rewiring our spending habits
What’s actually behind super-cheap “designer inspired” finds
Why you’re not saving money if you’re buying more stuff you don’t love
How to shop intentionally without giving up fun, self-expression, or good deals
If you’ve ever added a $19 “dupe” to your cart at 1 AM because it felt like a win… same. But there’s a better way.
Here’s the first step to a solution. For free. 🎁
