Chanel Invasion - Part 2

Here are 4 paper bags, 1 box and 1 bag. The bags on the table all belong to Z. I bought the bag on the right from Chanel Heathrow, while Z was using the bag on the left (with the camelia) and the 2 bags in the middle were her latest acquisitions which she brought to show me.

On the couch is S's paperbag with her new bag inside and on the table is another bag which I bought for Z from Heathrow. It's a seasonal colour and will not be repeated, it was buttery soft and squashy and puffy and soft...

So here are their gorgeousnesses, Z & S, with their new bags.
This here is Z.
and here is S. Although you can't see their faces, you can see how widely they are smiling from their bags.
Close up of S's.
Happy!!!

Hi Chanelicious - the classic flap bag looks red in the picture but it is actually burgundy; and yes, it's seasonal with a special gunmetal chain link and logo/clasp. It is part of Chanel's Fall 2008/9 collection and is made from calfskin thereby making it more durable than lambskin. The bag comes in 3 sizes - the one in this pic is large. Other colours besides burgundy are deep brown and green.

By sight I thought the classic jumbo was slightly larger than the bag described above. The white jumbo classic in caviar leather I saw in Heathrow was gorgeous but totally impractical due to its colour. They had run out of beige and black models and if they had one in red..... oh dear, it would have been quite difficult to resist... :-) E.

p.s. Just to mention again the bags in this pic are not mine but bought on behalf on my friends. :-P

Tks 4 ur info, E. Yeah,u r rite i was torn between d black n white jumbo calfskin during my previous HK trip n end up getting d black one. Actually, i won't resist a white one in the future if budget allows, juz avoid wearing dark colour tops while using the bag.Is Caviar leather equivalent to Calfskin btw?

P/s : u haven't told me were urs a cheaper deal?? Just try to justify the price difference. Cheers

Must convince hubby to let me get my grubby mitts on a 2.55...for Christmas perhaps.

Hi Chanelicious - compared to yours, the price of the burgundy from Heathrow was lower... Caviar leather has a rougher surface, well, like caviar packed together on a flat surface and more durable - calfskin is quite similar to lambskin but not as fine and delicate. E.

Hi Tina - go for it! E.

Hi C - your first comment deleted. And the Heathrow price for the classic jumbo in caviar leather (not lambskin) is lower than the HK price. Hope that helps! E.
