Ashley Garcia Reveals Her Favorite Designer Items

These are the luxury pieces the content creator has intentionally saved up for.

Published on May 28, 2025

While designer pieces might seem commonplace on social media, content creator Ashley Garcia will be the first to tell you that splurging on luxury is a well-thought-out investment decision. "Even if my main content was all about fashion, I really wanted to make sure that when the time comes that I could afford a designer [piece], I made it a point that I have the feeling of wanting it more than needing it," she tells Preview.

Not merely subscribing to peer pressure and hopping on the sartorial bandwagon, Ashley made sure that each piece she purchases truly resonates with her. "[I made sure I was in a place of] wanting it in a way that I feel like I deserve it or I genuinely find this piece beautiful or functional not just because it's trendy, and not needing it to fit into this certain type of mold," she expounds.

She also shares that while it seems that everyone on your feed has the latest it bag, there's no need to pressure yourself or be in a rush. "Hard work does pay off, and your time will come as well," she says in a special episode of Designer Favorites.

The Pieces Ashley Garcia Saved Up For

Chanel Classic Flap Bag

Describing the Classic Flap as her "ultimate dream bag," this timeless purse was a want that Ashley was very vocal about in her vlog. She finally got it for herself for graduation—a sweet reward for a grueling thesis.

₱0

Louis Vuitton OnTheGo Bag

Consider this Louis Vuitton monogrammed tote as Ashley's gateway bag to the world of luxury fashion. The OnTheGo was the first designer piece that ever caught her fancy, and it would actually end up being her first-ever designer purchase. "Honestly, I didn't expect that [my first designer purchase] would be a tote bag, but I actually got it because of its functionality since it could fit a lot of things," she shares.

₱0

Saint Laurent Le 5 À 7 Bag

Another memorable purchase, Ashley reveals that she bought this Le 5 à 7 on her first solo out-of-the-country trip. The compact arm candy can carry all of her essentials, making it the most-used bag in her arsenal.

₱0

Dior Dioract Sandals

A fairly new addition to her shoe closet, Ashley shares that these Dioract sandals have been her go-to. She swears by their comfort, revealing that she bought them on the spot when her heels broke during a trip.

₱0

Dior Saddle Bag

Wrapping up her favorites is a pristine white Saddle Bag. While initially worrying about maintaining the condition of the purse since she's clumsy, she highly recommends Dior's versatility and high-quality craftsmanship. "Hindi siya ganun ka-dumihin," she reveals.
