Chloe 'Silverado' Bag

[Edna]

Valerie, that Rose is beautiful. Is that the small size?

That fake red python reminded me of the authentic white python I saw at Nordstrom yesterday. Because up close, the scales looked slightly curled, but farther away the scales looked flat, just like that red, even though the white was authentic. I don't know why I just thought of that.

But anyway, the white wasn't very appealing to me because it seemed very plain. It was the large size, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Since its sales time in the consumer world, has anyone seen or know of any of the leather silverados on sale? If those bags go on sale, the place most likely to have them would be NM or one of the dept. stores in US....

Yes, it's the smaller size.
And, I can't remember who posted it, but someone said the rose scales reminded them of rose petals? I totally agree! I had not even thought of that before!
Edna, did you recieve the new bag yet?

 

[Edna]

I haven't received my new bag yet. Katie is supposed to call me when the store receives the bag that they picked up from me and when they ship out the new one. I am hoping I will get it in time for the weekend at least.

Is the Python Silverado worth a 2nd purchase?

 

[PrincessImp.]

I think it is.
For a python bag, the difference in price between the leather and python version is not that huge.
Plus, I really like the design.

Besides the gold, I have got myself the maroon
Now I am thinking whether I should keep the F/W brown...
I would get the bronze, if I hadn't got my gold...

May I ask where you got your maroon from??

 

[PrincessImp.]

Chloe' Bahrain...it was really weird because I called all over looking for the choc brown.
Then you posted a picture of the maroon, which I had turned down even though the SA's there tried to describe it as a "reddish-brown" to me.
Your picture really made it look very nice.

So I got the SA there (Jaybe I think) to send over more pics.
I delibrated over it and decided to finally order it because it was a very unique colour, kinda between red and brown.....

So, in a way, you kinda help me make up my mind..

I don't really like the new brown...prefer the maroon one better and the matalic is not for me - imo

Hmm...I wasn't sure if my gold could be used pretty often but in the end I was so surprised at how easily it worked with a lot of things in my wardrobe, especially denim.

About the new brown..I guess I still have another 20 days left to decide before they deduct the amount from my credit card... but ..GAH..I really wanted a brown so badly.
I actually ordered the 2-tone from LVR, but then I gave it up cos I thought the FW brown was the summer chocolate brown

That's my sad story.....

 

[klow-chloe']

Jaybe and Leena are the best ...congrat! I was trying to convince a friend here to get it from Bahrain but she didn't want it so I posted the pic ....if I don't have the brown one I think I would definately get the maroon one ....you know I didn't pay the taxes and duties when the bag was arriving here. I think I was lucky

 

[PrincessImp.]

Phew, then I guess I am lucky that I saw ur pic !

My bag got sent out today, so I am keeping my fingers crossed ...

(And that's why I can't afford another paddy.... )

Glad you did order it coz I think I very like it... It is an unsual colour and definately no fake in that colour I'm sure you won't be dispointed when you get the bag.

 

[baghag21]

chiangsi....let me know how it goes with the taxes / duties when it arrives from Bahrain. I would really like a brown python large...but am thinking if it's worth buying another silverado or another bag..

 

[klow-chloe']

Oh don't worry you still can get the paddy later may be in Sept I think it's still be some by that time.

Oh a bit off topic the cerf are sold out here won't be able to find one have to try to get from somewhere else.

 

[PrincessImp.]

I hope not!!!!

The maroon was to satiate my want for a brown silverado.. and I really really thought it over for three days...as I already had ordered the FW 05 brown silverado from LVR.

I am glad I did not miss out on this lovely colour cos of you, klow-chloe' !!

No problem!!

klow-chloe' : I hope you'll get your cerf soon - I think Chanel will stop production of the ones with the gold cc's and replace it with another design for the metal closure... if I recall the posts on another thread correctly...

 

[klow-chloe']

Oh you make me blush now....post more pic would you I was so sure that there will be someone like this colour tho...here you are...you're the one.

 

[klow-chloe']

baghag which silverado (python or leather) do you already have???

 

[PrincessImp.]

heh.. I sure will!
It's a wonderful colour and you have good taste
