Chanel M/L Classic Flap in caviar with silver hardware
Friday, August 06, 2010Happy birthday to me! To celebrate turning another year older (ugh haha), I went out and purchased a lil something for myself. It may be small, but it sure ain't cheap! The timing was just right because Chanel decided to raise prices this time around by a whopping 30%+! o.O I don't know what the hell they're thinking?! It's already bad enough that they have 1-2 price increases per year, but this one tops it all. Ranting aside, here is my lovely Chanel M/L Caviar Flap in silver hardware <3 (buy pre-owned)

Hi Cee! Just wanted to let you know that the comments section on your blog is a little wonky because you can't see the word verification on the bottom. So I'm guessing that's why everyone is having a hard time leaving comments.
ReplyDeleteOther than that, I love your blog! I love how you put your outfits together so beautifully. :)
Oh I only managed to figure it out by hitting tab a couple times after typing to find the word verification box and post comment button.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your Chanel! It's gorgeous!
J - Thanks for letting me know! I had no idea blooger is so complicated o.O
ReplyDeleteOOH how exciting is that! Congrats. A stunning, classic bag!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bag!! I got my jumbo right around the same time - I had been planning to wait, but it was never going to happen if I didn't bite the bullet before all of these crazy increases!
ReplyDelete@ Pretty Little World - I felt exactly the same way! Now there are rumors there's going to be another increase later this year! :O So glad we both bought when we did :)
ReplyDeletecongrats! I bought mine months before the price increase. I was debating about between the jumbo and m/l, had i known about the price increase; i would have went with the jumbo!
ReplyDeleteI have this exact bag. Got it 4 years ago and I still love it as much to this day!! Enjoy it!!

OK never mind my previous inquiry. Found my answer here. =) I heard about the price increase. Boo. Oh well I'm not sure if I could pull the trigger with such a steep increase.
ReplyDelete@I am Khatu - The jumbo is definitely more of an everyday bag... I had to be downsize a lot as to what I tote around everyday. Did the jumbo look good on you? I found it looked too big on me so I went with the M/L.
ReplyDelete@PearlsAndGreenTea - Thank you! M/L is such a classic!
@Couture and Crayons - This recent increase is insane! After my one and only, I think I'm done with Chanel lol. I've heard that Paris prices are currently around pre-increase prices... so you could always take a vacation and buy your first Chanel there ;)
Just read your nostalgic post about your bag collection...it was fun! : P
ReplyDeleteGreat choice on the Chanel. I personally also love the black on silver but both my bags are black on gold because I bought pre-owned and wasn't too too picky. BLack on gold seems to be quite popular but I think black w/ silver is much more versatile! I am envious you bought before the hike...I was moseying around and then bam..it happened and now I refuse to fork over $3400 plus tax for a medium flap. Sighs...
hi cee. why did u decide on silver hardware? i was debating between silver and gold too.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hear from you. Constructive criticisms welcome!
