^
its alright- i like the classic ones better though.

I have one in dark brown which I bought 3 years ago. I hardly use it but I think it's absolutely divine so I'm always going to keep it

evexa: The one your carrying is a limited one! I remember there was only one at my boutique and it was exclusively made and sold only under a charity auction. You are one lucky girl!

The classic ones are the best!

Only drawback for me is that I can't carry it on my shoulders....

i just bought my Boogie last Fri & i'm absolutely in love with it!
There's a sale at my Celine boutique & i got a limited edition at 50% off retail!
the one i bought is beige in color, with lily of the valley.

It's called the Boogie Art School collection:

inside's an oval tag that says limited edition, 94/100...i'm so happy!

HI evryone


I own a Boogie in White cerf leather that is fab.
I bought it the first day of the sales for 600€.
I find it classy. I bought it in white because i really wanted a white kelly
but i found it too expensive for a white bag.
I think it's practical and easy to wear. Furthermore, it's a really well made bag
if you look inside.

Hi, I am looking to buy a Celine Biker Boogie bag on ebay. I have never seen one in person. The Neiman Marcus close to me does not carry Celine in the store only online. So from looking on ebay, the bag looks to be shiny? If any one has this bag, can you let me know if it is? Pros/Cons of the bag? Any tips how to spot an authentic verses fake? Thanks!

I have the biker boogie in red (with white stiching) and an optic white one (with orange accents). I like that they are a little more distinctive than the "classic" ones, which look a bit dull to me. The bags have such a classic, timeless shape, that an unusual detail or color looks right to me.

The only caveat is that it must be handheld (or in the crook of your arm), but it really is lovely and holds everything beautifully and neatly. I think it's a winner and I always get compliments when I carry mine (more so than with my Balenciagas, MJs and Chanels).

Thanks! I am very nervous about buying on ebay since I do not know what to look for. Is it a shiny leather?

sandrac, i have a tan boogie that i bought last year - the leather is NOT shiny and it's super soft... my tan is also lined w/ almost a suede like material (may actually be suede, but not at home to check it - sorry)...

btw, i saw your post in the fake/ authentic thread and to me that biker boogie looks fake..

 

[sandrac823]

Thanks, I believe it is fake too. I am not buying it but am still on the hunt!!!

^good luck!!

Second that!! The Celine Boogie is a good investment for a handbag & you'll love yours for sure !

I get tons of compliments whenever I carry mine... here's a small pic of the one i got..I love it !!

^ ooh i have that too, except in the lime green color... love yours too!
i love celine bags. i've been very pleased with how well my celine bags have held up. my suede boogie is def more fragile than my ella bag, but i'd love to get a leather boogie in the future. i love the style and i think it's a very good investment.

Meowmix, I've seen the lime green bag & it's gorgeous! The master artist Ms Fanfan Li who directed the entire Boogie Art School project had the same bag as you! (Source: http://www.newyorksocialdiary.com )

[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Celine brought the celebration of the year of France in China to New York last week with a cocktail party benefitting the Asia Society. The Young Patrons came out to launch the Asian Art Fair and Celine's Boogie Art School, a limited editon bag painted by students in China under the direction of master artist Fanfan Li, who flew in from Paris for the night. Four of her paintings were on display having been loaned from the Elizabeth Wang Gallery for the occasion. [/font]

I never thought about owning a Celine Boogie bag because I am more of a shoulder bag kind of gal, until all of you posted your pics. It is a really lovely bag. How practical do you all find it?

i love my yellow sunflower boogie bag
its got a pocket in front (flap pocket) and 2 side pockets.
i love it,. its very practical-- has a middle compartment to store your wallet etc. and 2 compartments for easy access.
i havent yet sprayed it with apple leather so it sorta got dirty thats why m gonna hafta clean it when i have the time , then spray it with the leather care conditioner.
but i definitely recommend that bag!
