Merry Christmas - Chanel Edition

Merry Christmas ... 

 

Chanel Precious Mini Flap

I came across this advertisement early this year, it was for Chanel's Precious Collection.  I was dying to get my hands on this gorgeous classic flap.  BUT It was not available at all :(

But guess what...my sweet SA called me up after 2 months and said they are getting one in the mini flap and she asked me if I am still interested.  


OMG...I can't believe I am this lucky.


I am so excited to be the proud owner of my new pink jewelled mini flap.

My new baby is in a pink sheen leather with a jewelled CC Clasp Closure...look how pretty she is :p

For some reasons the colour looks different due to the lightning, but next photo shows the true colour of the mini flap :)

How to look after you Chanel handbag :)

The price of Chanel handbags are going up like crazy, therefore I won't be able to buy one anytime soon. I guess I can only focus on looking after my exiting collection, so they will last me forever. 
 
Here are some tips on how to look after a Chanel handbag:

1. Store the handbag in a cool place and avoid the sun. Direct sunlight will fade the color over time and cause discoloration.
2. Try to store the handbag in the original dust bag and box.  
3. Make sure that the chains are not in contact with the handbag as they may mark the leather.  Try to put them inside the handbag or wrapped it with the tissue paper.
4. Put extra tissue paper inside the handbag to keep the shape.
5. Never put the handbag on the public ground or on the floor.
6. Becareful when wearing a blue jean, the color might rubbing onto a lighter color handbag. 
7. Do not over-fill the handbag, as this might alter the bag shape.
8. Avoid put makeup directly in the handbag.  It might dirty the interior lining. Try to store the makeup in a makeup bag.
9. If the handbag gets wet, do not wipe it but absorb the water by patting gently with a fine woolen cloth.

If the Chanel handbag is treated like it deserves, it will last a lifetime.  Enjoy it!

Chanel Price Increase AGAIN!!!

Hi gals,

Our dear Chanel decided to increase the price on their Classic Flap and Reissue AGAIN!!!

I don't think I can afford to buy another Chanel bag :(

 

*Price are in USD!

Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel opened her fashion house in the 1920s, since then she redefined the way women dressed.  Her extraordinary influence on fashion still exist today and will last forever.

She created many timeless designs that are still popular today, such as black party dresses, long pearl necklaces, tweed jackets and of course the classic quilted handbags.

My favourite Quotes by Coco Chanel:

"A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous."
"Fashion changes, but style endures."
"Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman."
"A woman can be over dressed but never over elegant."
"The best colour in the whole world is the one that looks good on you."
"I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny."

Coco Chanel you are an amazing woman!

Chanel Bowling Bag

Love Love Love the new Chanel Bowling Bag!!!

It is available in my favourite soft pink matte alligator leather and embellished with jewel chain.  I am sure I won’t be able to afford it.

I really need a tree that can grow money…:p

Chanel Necklace

I absolutely adore this lovely necklace from Chanel’s Spring/Summer 2011 collection. It looks like a vintage jewellery, very classic and elegant.

This exquisite necklace is made of freshwater pearls with a beautifully crafted pendant hanging from the necklace. 

Enjoy it!

Chanel Black Handbags

I have always been a big fan of black, especially black handbags.  A nice black handbag will match perfectly with any outfits.

Over the years, I have acquired a nice collection of black handbags.

Here is a picture of my black Chanel handbags.

Chanel Pumps

My new Chanel pumps finally arrived.  It is made with patented calfskin on a steel platform with "Chanel" engraved on the front.

I can't wait till the winter is over, so I can wear my new pumps.

Chanel Classic Ballerina Flats

I got a pair of Classic Ballerina Flats in Silver.  I think Ballerina flats are one of the must-have shoes in the closet, it goes perfectly with a nice pair of jeans.

Forever Classic Bags

Chanel and Hermes are the top designer houses in the fashion industry.

Why?  Women are crazy over their classic handbags that were designed from many years ago.

I know people own more than one Chanel 2.55 in various materials, colours, or sizes.  Should anyone own more than one handbag with just variations in colours or materials?

Well, I told my husband, classic handbags like Chanel 2.55 or Hermes Birkin will last forever; because the price will only go up every year and the styles will never retire.  So it is like an investment, maybe I can resale my collection during my retirement, since it might outperform my stock portfolio. LOL.

Chanel Python Classic Bag

WOW...that was my first impression when I saw this bag.  It is stunning!  I think I am a very lucky owner of this gorgeous Chanel Class Bag.

Chanel Python Clutch

My Chanel SA asked me if I am interested in the new Python Clutch in pink.   I love the clutch, but light pink will get dirty very fast.

Suggestions?

Chanel WOC

I was looking for a Chanel WOC (Wallet On a Chain) for girls night out.

I ended up with this beautiful pink camellia flower embossed wallet on a chain, the leather is so delicate that I will not use it at a club.  But, I am still happy owning this very pretty WOC :)

Cannot resist again :p

My Chanel SA called me and said the bag I am interested from the 2011 cruise collection has arrived.

I really don't think I should get another classic flap bag.  But...after I saw the bag, I know I am in trouble :P

It is the new Pink Fuchsia in Patent.  How can I say no to Hot Pink.  Plus, it will be a perfect bag for my upcoming cruise.

I love you my new baby.
