Since Twitter's Vine app has been languishing unused on my iPhone (does anyone actually use Vine?), I figured this would also be the perfect occasion to make my first video. With Chanel, the unboxing process is always quite fun since there's lots of ribbon and tissue paper to get through.
As you can see, I opted for the caviar leather with silver hardware. Not only does this combination suit my style best but it can be worn with all kinds of outfits, like this more casual one from a few weekends ago when I went for a walk around Steveston.

nice look ;D

I cannot even express how envious I am that you now own a 2.55 bag! I keep dipping into my Chanel fund for other things, like travel and smaller designer pieces... but I'm determined to get there one day, although it would really help if they quit constantly increasing the prices ;)
ReplyDeletexox,
Cee

DeleteThat bag is ... amazing , jealous!

Lovely look, very classy! Nice Chanel purse :)

Amazing purse and love your choice! ;) I got the Jumbo sized in the caviar with silver h/w because I was torn between the two sizes.. but in the end I want both! hahaha... I'm not sure if that'll happen with the killer price increase so maybe I might go for WOC.. maybe.. we'll see.
ReplyDeleteYou look great!

Alison - I'm SO excited for you - that is my dream bag, though I don't know if I'll ever get it as the price has gone up SOO much (I am SOOO kicking myself for not buying it 10 years ago LOL!)
ReplyDeleteIt looks gorgeous on you - you must be so happy!
I know, could have saved so much money buying it back then! I should have just bitten the bullet too, haha
DeleteAh, you got it! I've been dying to get one for the longest time, but it doesn't seem like it'll be happening anytime soon since I'm trying to save as much as I can at this point. You definitely deserve it though after all that you've accomplished! :) Can't wait to see more outfit posts with this. I definitely will have to agree that this suits your style a lot better.
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you <3 I'm sure you'll get yours soon... at least you have that gorgeous Prada!

Love the size you chose! I've been seeing the jumbo sizes lately, and it's nice to see it in the smaller size.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.xjole.com
I think the smaller size suited me better... the jumbo was quite overwhelming on my frame. Just have to work on paring down what I carry with me!
DeleteYour Chanel quilted bag is gorgeous!! I love your sunglasses, as well. This is such a great casual outfit.
ReplyDeleteIf you get a sec, please check out my latest post. I would love to read your feedback.

Oh my! What a gorgeous bag! I am so in love with this style and the 2.55 Chanel handbag, I pray that one day I will be blessed enough to be able to afford one for myself :) enjoy your beautiful bag, it really suits you!xx
ReplyDeleteYour Chanel is a beauty and the perfect investment piece. It really is a bag that goes with anything and the Caviar leather is a great choice. As for the Vine app, I don't think many people use it anymore! I know I've stopped checking it after the initial craze.
