Chiara Ferragni better watch out.
At just 14 years old, Thomas, aka @thomasluxlife on Instagram, is arguably the most refreshing content creator around.
His speciality ?
Luxury bags.
Under the eyes of his 10k subscribers, the teenager from Maryland (United States) strikes a pose with his favorite models from the biggest houses, smiling – ringed from ear to ear.
Enthusiasm and spontaneity rare enough on the platform to be noticed.
Within weeks, Thomas was featured in the most prominent journals, from
Id to
Antidote
magazine
.
It must be said that the boy with a thousand and one handbags is intriguing.
Inhabited by a devouring passion for this flagship accessory, Thomas posted his first content in October 2020. But contrary to what his Instagram feed might suggest, filled with Baguette bags from Fendi, Timeless from Chanel or Birkin from Hermès, the young boy is not a wealthy collector.
He satisfies his passion thanks to an observation internship in a top-of-the-range second-hand shop, obtained by impressing its owner with the extent of his knowledge.
Sharp but modest, the budding influencer confides to the magazine
Id
: "Ultimately, I try to live according to my mantra:" the important thing is not what you wear, but who you are. luxury that he is, Thomas does not lose his sense of reality.
