Ok I need help....

Im about to purchase a Chanel bag from Fang for $700!!!! Now thats alot of money! I have never bought chanels from her, are they recommended and spot on or shuld I save a little more and go with an preowned auth? (about $3.500) I just want to be happy with my bag and keep it for the rest of my life. And is Fang really that expensive or just pulling my leg? Thanks for all the help I can get

Like the other ladies have mentioned just save & get auth. Look in consignment shops & on ebay & craigslist. I've bought 2 chanel bags off craigslist for dirt cheap & one in decades which is a consignment store here in la. Something will come up just save your money & keep looking.. Best of luck to you

What does everyone think of Joy's Mini Celines she has up?

I'm thinking of getting the Gucci diaper bag. Is Fang's Gucci as good as her LV and Chanel or should I just stick with Catty? TIA

 

[Blodeuwedd]

That would explain why Fang's website lists no prices anywhere - I didn't even consider that

Fashionplus: I haven't had Catty disappoint me yet on either Prada, LV, Gucci (Bal is the exception!) and I've inspected the LV I recently received from her to the pictures on Fang's website and they were identical - I have a Neverfull Damier Ebene MM, an Azur zippy organizer and a makeup bag. My coworker got a Gucci hobo from her and she was extremely excited at how good it was. She owns a few authentic ones and it passed for her.

In general, unless it is a really bad pleather bag, gicci in general is good.

Given a choice, will you get a
1) Preloved RH weekender
2) New Chanel GST

Reason for your choice.

 

[koalabear]

Not sure how to edit my own post- can't find the option.

Will you rather get a new Giant hardware Weekender instead? But I not sure how heavy compare to Regular hardware as I only own the Bals in Giant hardware in PT and City. Thanks!

Congratulation for the lovely Chanel family Lovedbychanel !
I particularly love your lambskin vintage one. Is it the 12' one ? Thank you

 

[stellabelle]

i hope boys doing the mini hardware next!!!

NBF says the plan is to start mini giant next.
bal is discontinuing GH so it makes sense.

IvyStar and melanie- the mini you are referring to is the Celine luggage mini NOT the Chanel mini that Mel is talking about right? I think the prices are diff for the diff bags so please clarify so that we don't go blasting Fang for no reason.

Yes. Of course. I have been speaking about Celine Mini. I know Fang's Chanels are very expensive. Not sure what Melanie was referring to but Fang told me that she 100% is not charging less than $385 for Celine Mini.

Has anyone asked Jacky if he will do the Mulberry Postman's Lock Satchel? I am not a big mulberry fan, but tried on this bag yesterday - and I have to have it!!!

 

[IvyStar]

What do you guys think? Cypress RH work or Bleu Lavende RH work?? Really stuck between these two colors!! )

This is my first NBF btw..anything I should tell the boys when I order?

 

[Melanie87]

Ivi: I was talking abot the mini chanel LOL, that's why it sounded to me pretty expensive for such a small bag

Between BLEU LAVANDE and CYPRESS i would say GO FOR THE BLEU LAVANDE, its such a unique colour and also its different depending on th elight, while the cypress to me is boring...bal run a lot of greens, while violets not

 

[marie7575]

I would go for the Bleu Lavande too.
I have a cypress city rh that I really love, but for a work I would chose the BL.

 

[IvyStar]

Do you guys think bleu lavande is easy to wear as far as it matching with clothes?

I'd say it depends on your go to colors as well as how many bags you use and how often you change them. BL is fun as an accent for sure, especially with prints mixed with black or white. But it is not a color bag i would use every day.

Yes its a 12inch Did any one buy a turq we from t&d from the last run they did in jan? If so can you post a picture or do a mini review. I have one on the way & Im kinda nervous

 

[xooey]

Ivystar, when placing your order for the BL bag with the boys, you can specify the type of leather you prefer. For instance, the type of distressing on the leather (heavily distressed or lightly distressed?) and thick or thin leather. This was what I did with my BL order and NBF really came through for me.

As for matching BL with clothes ... Honestly, it's not as versatile as black or anthra. As it's a pop of colour, I usually carry it when I'm dressed in black or duller colours. Though I seldom use it, it's really a gorgeous colour and I have no regrets getting it.

Thanks Xooey! Which is optimal and closer to authentic as far as distressed vs lightly distressed and thick or thin? Which did you get?
